Forum:CT:User of the Month voting changes

This proposal is simple. IMO, User of the Month should be a monthly competition, not what we have it as now. Essentially, this is how it works now: someone is nominated, they get votes, someone else is nominated, they get more votes than the first person, but the first person is NOT taken off the nomination page at the end of the month. They’ll stay on for as long as it takes them to get more votes than any other nominee.

See how it’s not a competition?

To me, UOTM doesn’t mean as much if it’s a guarantee so long as you don’t fall below +1. UOTM will mean more if it’s actually a competition, because, unlike FAs, GAs, QOTWs, and such, it’s an award. To see how I would have this set up, see this page.

Voting will last for at least one week, until Sunday, April 4th, unless more or less time is required. All matters of the voting policy apply. Please be civil.
