Queen of the Forest 09-29-2005, 09:33 AM I might be able to manage that :toothless
loser84 09-29-2005, 10:26 AM I nominate Ogeechee 4x4. Since he just finished his SAS.

Once we get the confirmations, then we can start. Please PM your nominee and let them know that they have been Nominated and need to confirm or deny {Hopefully Confirm}
Allcruisen :imp :usa
AKBearMoose 09-29-2005, 01:09 PM Nominating Alternate #1 - JahWarrior :popc1:
(Maybe if I can get him to pimp his Bronco in here for a month he'll have less time to bash on Bush...LOL)
JahWarrior 09-29-2005, 01:13 PM Nominating Alternate #1 - JahWarrior :popc1:
(Maybe if I can get him to pimp his Bronco in here for a month he'll have less time to bash on Bush...LOL)
LMAO, I'm flattered :rofl: But I multitask quite well :toothless
Gacknar 09-29-2005, 02:38 PM 10 Nominies made a much better race :cry
(if I voted for 5 then Im sorry, and I wanna change my vote)
derrick36 09-29-2005, 02:53 PM 10 Nominies made a much better race :cry
(if I voted for 5 then Im sorry, and I wanna change my vote)
I think I'm gonna have to second that. How 'bout we make 5 the minimum, but leave the total at 10? That way as long as we have 5(which souldnt be a problem), we're good to go.
Marauder 09-29-2005, 03:15 PM http://fullsizebronco.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49617
The masses have spoken. The end.
Bronco85 09-29-2005, 04:17 PM honestly if we can get 5 guys that will really want to win FOTM that is way better then 10 guys. look at last months race. 1 guy with 50+ 1 with 30+ and everyone else below 10 votes total. No offense to anyone. But there always seems to be some fillers in there that don't belong in the voting in the first place.
Thats not much of a race. Especially when only a couple of people every month really try to win the award.

Now you got 5 guys that nobody cares about running for FOTM, and at the end it only gets 75 votes total becouse nobody is interested.
Then remember, the winner is supposed to write a two page artical about there bronco for Bronco Driver Magazine.
Stock Broncos dont sell Subscriptions, and magazines dont give space away to things that dont either pay, or sell Subscriptions.
I'm concerened thats all. :shrug
Ok, I'll shut up about it now.
P.S.
This has nothing to do with our current 5 fine nominies :thumbup :beer
bnkrtstk 09-29-2005, 04:48 PM But Gack, FOTM is not just about the Bronco It's a popularity contest plain and simple. :rolleyes:
Bronco85 09-29-2005, 04:51 PM Maybe we should take 10 nominees and then have a quick vote on the top 5? There are some kick ass rigs and people on the board. don't get me wrong. Also alot of really nice stock rigs. But noone wants to see a stock rusted up old beater.
We can work out how to do things better then we have now. Is all I was trying to get at. We need to make sure the people that are voted in actually want to run and are willing to do what is needed.
10 Nominies made a much better race :cry
(if I voted for 5 then Im sorry, and I wanna change my vote)

Sheesh....sorry about my rusted up old beater :cry It's not how the truck looks...but who the person is, what the truck does and what that person has done to their truck. It's the LOVE of these trucks what makes it fun....not who has the pretties, tallest one out there. I beat the shit out of my '89 last year, granted it wasn't over the Rubicon or Moab, but I used her and had fun doing it.
So there... :goodfinge
Marauder 09-29-2005, 05:56 PM Thanks for listining Intern :twak
What do you want me to do? We had a public poll for everyone for this reason exactly. So that when people say "but this way sucks". Well everyone chose it.
Anyways, we need to keep this thread for nominations, you can continue debating in the changing the rules thread.
Gacknar 09-29-2005, 06:04 PM Sheesh....sorry about my rusted up old beater I like your old Beater :toothless
you can continue debating in the changing the rules thread.Actually "BIG M" I cant. :goodfinge
It's locked. :shrug
Thanks for the nod, but I can't accept. lol Mine isn't even running right now, and it's nowhere near the condition that would make it worthwhile.
I disagree with you Jeremy, there is a place for stockers in the nomination. Mine's nowhere near nice enough to be there, but I would much rather see a fully restored '78 than I had a '94 with all the same mods all the other guys have.
brad
Gacknar 09-29-2005, 07:11 PM but I would much rather see a fully restored '78A fully restored 78 might be stock, but it is not original.
Somone "Restored" IT.
There fore they would have plenty to fill out a 2 page article with.
BigNorm 09-29-2005, 08:16 PM Where were you guys when there was a poll for this? Most of you who don't like it now pretty much are agreeing with what I had to say there. Like Marauder said: It was voted on now lets see what happens. I kind of think 10 was good even if there was some filler there. You had more of a chance of getting some who really wanted to play. Oh well. We'll see how this pans out.

JahWarrior 09-29-2005, 10:01 PM Oh hell why not... The Bronco is getting ready to undergo the knife again, and I'm gonna have to take a lot of pictures next weekend to have much in the way of pimpin material, but it should give me the initiative to "push it" a little on the trip :thumbup
locopny 09-29-2005, 10:07 PM Sure I'll accept. good a time as any...
I am gonna go under the knive (one ton) some time after the calico trip this month.
Thanks to Shannon. you gonna whore it up with me???
JahWarrior 09-29-2005, 10:09 PM I am gonna go under the knive (one ton) some time after the calico trip this month.

As long as it brings in the votes! :toothless
MikE2 09-29-2005, 11:56 PM I voted for the 5 nominees, but now I think it was better before with 10. It wasn't even 10 hours from the time the poll opened untill they had 5 nominees and it was closed.
At least with 10 it took a few days to get them all so people had time to throw their nominee in.
I was afraid this would happen.
OK I'm done hijacking now, delete this if you must
allcruisen 09-30-2005, 01:31 AM Errrr.....sorry Felix...my blondess kicked in....my rusty old beater and I accept this mission :thumbup

Mike, This is exactly why I only wanted five. I can now start the VOTING, hopefully, by tomorrow. Which equals to more Votes or more pics. Its the first Month, so lets see how it goes before we put it down, OK?
And, I also VOTED for just five Nominees....Next month it will start two weeks early. The Nominations, so be ready. LOL

Or limit how many times you can nominate someone? If you nominate someone this month, you can't nominate someone next month.
BigNorm 09-30-2005, 07:23 PM Or limit how many times you can nominate someone? If you nominate someone this month, you can't nominate someone next month.
I guess that'll work with the 10 of us that are involved. We can switch off every other month. :doh0715:
