Hmm, I seem to recall someone hinting about a contest in January, I think! 
OK, I guess it's time to let the cat out of the bag!
On or before, or maybe just after the first of the month, depending on how quickly we can get the bugs worked out of a new script, you folks will start seeing badges in every post to "Nominate for Post of the Month". Now don't go hog wild and start nominating everybody for every post! Nominations should be reserved for only the most informative or beneficial posts, otherwise we may just have to retire them. Besides, if you start running around nominating every post in sight, you're only hurting your own chances of ending up the Top Dog at the end of the month, aren't you?
At the end of the month all posts will be tallied up and the post with the most nominations will be the winner, and we're going to try to give out a nice little something each month to the winners!
Offering vendors the chance to sponsor the monthly contests should also probably help almost guarantee that we can award something to the winner each month too.
And for January we've got something hella special in store for you folks, due to the extremely generous sponorship offer made from Justin at True Pheromones! We'll not have just one winner in the post of the month awards for January, but 9! And I believe that everyone will admit that the prizes True Pheromones is giving out are well worth the effort of posting something spectacular in January!
But, by now you folks probably all want to know just what the heck is up for grabs in the contest, don't you?
How about this:
NOTE: If the top male and female winners do not occupy the 1st and 2nd spots, numbers 2 through 8 will each move down one prize until the first winning post by a member of the opposite sex, which will move to 2nd place.
In the case that any posts are tied for one of the winning positions, the post authors will be asked to select a number between 1 and 10 and the person to take the higher position will be selected by drawing a random number on random.org
We think this is a heck of a great way to kick off the contests and new forum functionality, and deeply appreciate the sponsorship offer provided from TRUE PHEROMONES. Let's all join in thanking them for such a generous contribution!
Thanks so much Justin!
