Welcome to the 420 Magazine Member of the Month Contest

420 Magazine would like to include not only our valued growers, but also more of our non-growing members in this contest. We are by no means excluding growers from the Member of the Month Contest, but we feel that our Plant and Nug Contests are already serving these members pretty well. Please help and support us in this effort.

Specifically, we're looking to thank those members that help and support our site in so many under recognized ways, such as:
  • Greeting new members
  • Helping people with questions
  • Peacemakers
  • Activism efforts
  • Promoting our sponsors
  • Activity and content generation
  • Reporting violations
420 Magazine Staff will select nominees, members determine the winner by poll. This does not prohibit members from suggesting nominations to a Moderator via private message. When doing so, include detailed reasoning for your nomination. Please do not nominate or suggest nominations in the contest thread, or it will be deleted without notice.

The contest will be open from the 1st until the 14th at midnight PST. At one minute past midnight on the 15th, we will begin voting for a winner.

The winner earns "Member of the Month" title, Bic 420 Magazine Lighter, 420 Mag Stickers, & 420 Magazine Magnet

With so many contests and even more winners, we unfortunately don't have the time and resources to offer organizing the 'gifting' of prizes anymore. Due to the nature of numerous, confusing logistics involved, delivery times get pushed back weeks waiting for everyone to reply with contact information, which causes delays in getting prizes to everyone. This causes a massive drain on our resources when everyone starts asking where their prizes are and why it's taking so long, some have even gone as far as to complain in public about us being lazy stoners, which couldn't be further from the truth. Mistakes in translations have also occurred, wasting valuable time, energy & shipping costs. Obviously you may pass prizes on yourself, and you are more than welcome to contact the sponsor yourself with a 'gifting' request.​

Monthly winners are automatically eligible for our prestigious "Member of the Year" contest, held in January.

Contest Guidelines:

1. Members must have at least 50 posts to be entitled to vote.

2. 420 Magazine staff members submit nominees and rationale in the contest thread.

3. Promotion (i.e. campaigning) for yourself or a friend, or any attempt at voting more than one time per person (i.e. multiple user names, etc.) is considered cheating and is prohibited. Promotion also includes family and friends who register a new account for voting purposes. Campaigning in any form - including but not limited to mentioning the nomination in any thread outside the contest and campaigning via PMs - will result in the member being removed from the month's contest. A second instance, either in a different contest during the same month or in any future contest, will attract a lifetime ban from all future contests.

4. Past winners are ineligible for 6 months from date of win.

5. Staff members from this or any other cannabis forum/community will not be nominated.

6. In accepting the Member of the Month title, prize(s), and the respect of the members, the winner agrees to wear his/her title with honor and to continue to set the example with his/her actions and posting behavior. To retain the Member of the Month title, the winner must remain compliant with contest rules and site guidelines.

Contests Are Legitimate: Now that votes are publicly visible, it should be obvious who is voting. We have endless ways of discovering cheating and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be called out in the public thread, visible to everyone. Reason being that in the past, when we removed the offending entry without any announcement (to help minimize embarrassment for the member), it often led to uninformed (or worse, misinformed) members questioning our motives and calling us censorship nazi's. More often than not, the cheater themselves would claim innocence, causing a higher workload for our staff. For these reasons, we now alert the community of what happened, to save all the confusion and massive workload on our team.

The admins choose but people can nominate I believe
The way I'm reading it is : Staff chooses nominees but we can also send staff a suggestion for a nominee. After staff picks the nominees the members vote for the nominee of their choice. The one with the most votes wins. If that is how it works (???) then when do we see who the nominees are & when does the voting end ?

The nominees will be posted on the 15th. You'll have until the end of the month to vote.

If you'd like to nominate someone, send a private message to @Teddy Edwards with all the details.

I couldn't choose as there are 4 or 5 people that I think deserve it. Hard to pick one over the other when they've all been great.
If you wait til the end of the month, you'll be able to see a few clear "frontrunners" that might help make your decision on where your vote is needed most.

I usually vote for the ones that I think have worked the hardest for it.
I wait until there is a clear "top 3" then do the same.

Some months, there are just too many members who have impressed/helped me.

I let the masses trim down my selections before I commit to anyone. LoL
 
We have several older members who have contributed tons to the sight but haven’t gotten the recognition. I tend to lean towards those.
Yeah. I agree with that 100%

So many great growers who aren't "in the in crowd" so they miss the "popular vote"

That's my one rule when voting... never vote for the homie just because they're my friend.
 
We have a plethora of members who are worthy of the title "Member of the Month". Thank Heavens.

Thank you to those who have already PM'd me a nomination. But we always like a good number from which to pick the shortlist for all members (with a minimum of 50 posts) to vote for.

So if you have someone in mind who fits the brief, who has been particularly welcoming, helpful, supportive and/or created exceptional content, then just drop me a PM with a name and your reasons why.

No nominations in this thread please. Voting begins on the 15th, so get your suggestions to me before then please.

:thanks:
