If new people get first dibs, then I'd like to request February. That way, if pierrot wants January, we've got the first two months covered, and there's plenty of time for everyone else to fight over their preference :lol:

I think I am gonna request March or April if possible. My schedule actually opens up a bunch in those months so I can easily get something started.

I'll do any month *BUT* March or April. I'm going to be out of the country for a while in March and don't expect to be able to post much .

If I'm needed, I do have some interesting choices in mind. I don't want a spot unless all the new blood is taken care of first, though. HOWEVER, I need to request that if I'm needed I can do a month BEFORE June.

I think we already have January and February takers? Maybe we should start putting together a calendar of who is taking each month?

I think that's a good call, seeing as the January poll will need to go up in a week or so's time.

I propose this list of new blood chooses their month first:

Prfsnl_gmr
Marurun(?)
Nemoide - Not March or April
BogusMeatFactory - March or April
Pierrot January?
Gunstar Green - Anything is fine!
Michi - February?


The the rest of us can fight it out over the last few months - we should decide how we're handling this as there's more people who want to do it than months free!:

Alienjesus
Exhuminator
Sarge
Ack
Markies
Noiseredux
CFFJR
Elkinfencer10

We also need to decide if we want a 'run-off' vote in June and December of the second choices from the preceding 5 months. I'll set up a poll for that one and add it to the thread.


This is what I'd propose based on what we know so far - I put people who requested specific months in first then just filled the spots in the order people expressed interest.

Jan: Pierrot
Feb: Michi
Mar: BogusMeatFactory
Apr: Prfsnl_Gmr
May: Marurun
Jun: Run-off vote OR greedy person
Jul: Nemoide
Aug: Gunstar Green
Sep: greedy person
Oct: greedy person
Nov: greedy person
Dec: Run-off vote or greedy person

I've added a poll to decide whether we fill some months with run off votes:

In case my options are unclear, we're deciding:

1. Do we have run-off votes in the schedule?

2. Do we have 1 run off in December for all previous months, or one in June and one in December for the previous 5 months?

3. Do we let the people who chose the themes decide which one they want to see return in the vote, or do we choose the 2nd place theme from the previous voting round?

Since we have enough new blood interested, I'm fine with bowing out.
