Poll is up! I encourage everything to check out each members journal and then vote. :thumbup:

************************************************

Nominations for LOTM April 2018 is now open.

We decided to have TFL members nominate candidates for LOTM, instead of us picking. Hopefully this process will not single out anyone and we will get a cross section of members nominated. We will open nominations for a few days, then it goes into voting.

Nominated:
1) @lawntips Journal
2) @Fishnugget Journal
3) @aug0211 Journal
4) @Pete1313 Journal
5) @wardconnor Journal
6) @Iriasj2009 Journal

:mrgreen:

I wish there was a thread solely for the purpose of people to link to their lawn thread (if they created one). Would make this easier. :cry:
My nominations are based on last year as weather has not broken (they're calling for 5-8" of snow here) and I can't pick the shade of tan I like for the Warm season people.
So without prejudice for cool season :lol:
All those already nominated particularly @Fishnugget for great landscaping and turf plus:

...can't you do a poll with options to vote on nominees in the future?
I think his plan is to convert it to a poll once all the nominations are in. :thumbup:
I misread it. I'm still high off of PGR fumes. :bandit:

Yeah, it's still a work in progress, but I think the plan was to open the floor for nominations about 10 days before the end of the month, then convert the original post to a poll thread at the 5 day mark. Actual voting would then extend through the last day of the month and a winner would be declared. Rinse and repeat each month.

It looks like it's going to move pretty quick though, so maybe we truncate the process next month to where there is 2-3 of nominations followed by 2-3 days of voting.

I really like this idea of LOTM (Thanks eric). I'd just like to see a bigger pool for the final vote (I'm sure there are a lot of lawns that I haven't seen/or remember that are deserving, but I understand the effort it would take for people to go back over all the posts to find them.) Maybe an incentive for people who make a "new" nomination each month. Like: "Ridgerunner promises not to post on your thread for a year, err month, err day." :D

So maybe the answer is to open a nomination thread on the first of each month, then convert it to a poll during the last few days of the month. That way when anyone runs across something they see that is worthy of a nomination for the upcoming lawn of the month they can go ahead and nominate it before they [insert old age joke here]. :mrgreen:
