OK folks... here's how it works:


NOMINATION RULES:

The 1st day of each month we will start a nomination thread for our members to nominate any other member of FSB for the FULLSIZE OF THE MONTH contest. Members CANNOT nominate THEMSELVES OR MEMBERS OF THIER FAMILY.

Almost anyone can Be NOMINATED... from the site Owner and Staff to the newest of n00bies, basically anyone you feel like NOMINATING, that OWNS a FULLSIZE BRONCO and is old enough to LEGALLY DRIVE that BRONCO.

You can only be Nominated and win once a year. If you win this year, say November then you would not be eligible to be Nominated until the following November.
If you were Nominated last Month you are not eligible to be Nominated again until the following Month.

Each member nominated will have to CONFIRM their entry into the contest, agreeing that they are willing to participate in the contest, and that should they WIN F.O.T.M. that they will follow through with the commitment to Bronco Driver Magazine.

We will do our best to contact each and every member nominated for confirmation, but if we do not receive confirmation from any nominee within 2 days from their nomination, they will be removed and the next member by order of nomination will take their place.

If (for any reason) a nominee does not wish to participate... they will be removed and the next member by order of nomination will take their place. If you do not want to participate in the F.O.T.M. contest, please state it before you are on the Ballot.

Once we have confirmed 10 NOMINEES... the FULLSIZE OF THE MONTH contest will begin!



VOTING RULES:

Each member can only VOTE ONCE. DO NOT have friends, family or co-workers sign on just TO VOTE for YOU.

This is Fullsize Of The Month, not FSB member of the month. You are voting for the Bronco you like best. Please keep in mind that the Bronco chosen for FOTM will represent FSB in Bronco Driver Magazine.

Contestants will only post pictures relating to the Bronco for which they are nominated. No pictures or lengthy discussions of other projects or other vehicles. If you feel the need to discuss other topics, please use other areas of the forum. Please keep the chit chat in the FOTM thread to a minimum.

Any member that wishes to be removed from the contest (once it has started) will be allowed to do so, but all VOTES given to that nominee shall be forfeit and the nominee will be in-eligable the following month, so please... be considerate of your fellow members when considering dropping out of the contest.
Along the same lines... any member removed by disqualification or banned from the site will be treated the same as one wishing to be removed. All votes given will be forfeit... occasionally votes may be granted back to those that voted for a removed nominee, but this is NOT standard practice and will be granted depending on the specifics of a given situation... according to staff decision.

The contest will end on the 25th of each month at 10:00 PM EST (or as close to that as we can manage).
In the event of a catastrophic occurrence (NATURAL DISASTERS, HOLIDAYS or SERVER PROBLEMS) we will consider extending the contest to make up for lost time... according to staff decision.

In the event of a tie, the voting will continue for the two or three that are tied, only.



CONTEST BEHAVIOR RULES:
(We regret that it has come to this, but contests in recent months have forced us to take action...)
* NOMINEE BASHING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.
* THREAD HIJACKING WILL BE LIMITED.
* SPAM PRIVATE MESSAGES WILL NOT BE ALLOWED.
* VIOLATION OF ANY OF THE STATED RULES ABOVE CAN RESULT IN IMMEDIATE DISQUALIFICATION.

POST THAT VIOLATE "CONTEST BEHAVIOR" RULES ARE SUBJECT TO STAFF EDITING OR EVEN REMOVAL!


This contest was started in the spirit of FUN for our COMMUNITY, our extended FAMILY.
Let's all do our best to keep this in mind, and enjoy the contest for what it is... an OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW OFF YOUR RIG, WIN SOME COOL STUFF & HAVE FUN WITH PEOPLE IN THE FULLSIZEBRONCO COMMUNITY.

Thanking you in Advance,
Your FOTM Mods :imp :usa
