Welcome to the 420 Magazine Member of the Month Contest

420 Magazine would like to include not only our valued growers, but also more of our non-growing members in this contest. We are by no means excluding growers from the Member of the Month Contest, but we feel that our Plant and Nug Contests are already serving these members pretty well. Please help and support us in this effort.

Specifically, we're looking to thank those members that help and support our site in so many under recognized ways, such as:
  • Greeting new members
  • Helping people with questions
  • Peacemakers
  • Activism efforts
  • Promoting our sponsors
  • Activity and content generation
  • Reporting violations
420 Magazine Staff will select nominees, members determine the winner by poll. This does not prohibit members from suggesting nominations to a Moderator via private message. When doing so, include detailed reasoning for your nomination. Please do not nominate or suggest nominations in the contest thread, or it will be deleted without notice.

The contest will be open from the 1st until the 14th at midnight PST. At one minute past midnight on the 15th, we will begin voting for a winner.

The winner earns "Member of the Month" title, 420 Mag T-Shirt, Bic 420 Magazine Lighter, 420 Mag Stickers, 420 Magazine Magnet, Medium 420 Magazine Nug Jar & Small 420 Magazine Nug Jar

With so many contests and even more winners, we unfortunately don't have the time and resources to offer organizing the 'gifting' of prizes anymore. Due to the nature of numerous, confusing logistics involved, delivery times get pushed back weeks waiting for everyone to reply with contact information, which causes delays in getting prizes to everyone. This causes a massive drain on our resources when everyone starts asking where their prizes are and why it's taking so long, some have even gone as far as to complain in public about us being lazy stoners, which couldn't be further from the truth. Mistakes in translations have also occurred, wasting valuable time, energy & shipping costs. Obviously you may pass prizes on yourself, and you are more than welcome to contact the sponsor yourself with a 'gifting' request.

Monthly winners are automatically eligible for our prestigious "Member of the Year" contest, held in January.

Contest Guidelines:

1. Members must have at least 50 posts to be entitled to vote.

2. 420 Magazine staff members submit nominees and rational in the contest thread.

3. Promotion (i.e. campaigning) for yourself or a friend, or any attempt at voting more than one time per person (i.e. multiple user names, etc.) is considered cheating and is prohibited. Promotion also includes family and friends who register a new account for voting purposes. Campaigning in any form - including but not limited to mentioning the nomination in any thread outside the contest and campaigning via PMs - will result in the member being removed from the month's contest. A second instance, either in a different contest during the same month or in any future contest, will attract a lifetime ban from all future contests.

4. Past winners are ineligible for 6 months from date of win.

5. Staff members from this or any other cannabis forum/community will not be nominated.

6. In accepting the Member of the Month title, prize(s), and the respect of the members, the winner agrees to wear his/her title with honor and to continue to set the example with his/her actions and posting behavior. To retain the Member of the Month title, the winner must remain compliant with contest rules and site guidelines.

Contests Are Legitimate: Now that votes are publicly visible, it should be obvious who is voting. We have endless ways of discovering cheating and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be called out in the public thread, visible to everyone. Reason being that in the past, when we removed the offending entry without any announcement (to help minimize embarrassment for the member), it often led to uninformed (or worse, misinformed) members questioning our motives and calling us censorship nazi's. More often than not, the cheater themselves would claim innocence, causing a higher workload for our staff. For these reasons, we now alert the community of what happened, to save all the confusion and massive workload on our team.

Time to put down that popcorn and pick up that mouse. Your nominations for August's Member of the Month are warmly invited.

Actually, I've had had some cracking nominations already. :thanks:

So to pay it forward (or is that "back?"), just drop me a PM with a name or two and your reasons why. No nominations in this public thread please.

Nominees for August's Member of the Month

Here is the shortlist for this month. Thanks to the many of you this month who put forward names.

The poll is now open for voting. Please remember that only those members with 50 or more posts are entitled to vote. The polls will be adjusted towards the end of the month, removing any ineligible votes.

Good luck to each of these worthy contenders. We thank you all for your work and contributions. We are so glad you are here. All words are edited from members' nominations.

Mr. Krip
Mr. Krip seems to have returned from an absence of years. But he's back with a bang. A great journal, but I'm nominating him for all his help and support for new members and those with questions. He's a cool dude, who obviously knows a lot but is modest and supportive. I really hope he makes your shortlist.

MrSauga
MrSauga is a frequent face in a lot of the new member threads and always looking to help however he can. He's welcoming, he's friendly, he's got plenty of knowledge which he's really generous with. He's helped me and I'm definitely not the only one.

Smeegol
Smeegol's been a terrific help to me and my grow, is always around helping others or sending good vibes, and is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to organic grows. I have learned several tricks off him using the resources of Mother Nature. I have noticed that 'Smeegs' is almost always greeting new people and going out of his way to help us newbies. Also his form of writing is most pleasant, original and funny.

Bobrown14
I’d like to nominate Bobrown fro helping me learn the ropes through organic gardening better. His journal is top-notch - full of amazing information. He is helpful and always replies. I’m sure he has helped more than just myself out with a great journal like his. He also, when asked or tagged in someone else’s thread to help, always replies. He is determined to offer his best advice to help others.

Pennywise
Pennywise has been here for me since day one. Even today, I thought hmm he hasn't dropped in to my thread for a few days, that's not usual, and BOOM he appears. Always comes with little nuggets of wisdom and kind words tucked in his deceptively menacing wig. Has been a real vanguard grower in the Brooklyn comparative, carving a way to victory for the rest of us. Glory be to Pennywise.

DrDoob
I’d like to put DrDoob forward again. He missed out narrowly last time and deserves another run at it. He is really polite and helpful around the site and always has a great attitude. He does his research and always shares great information respectfully. There’s also word that he can smoke SweetSue under that table and that’s gotta be worth MOTM right there! Jokes aside tho’, Doob was right there to help folks who were having difficulty with the site transition, and helping identify and troubleshoot the teething problems, and I still see him helping out new members all the time. DrDoob for the win!
 
Woohoo, thanks everyone. I tell you there a lot of great names up here. Some who have helped me and others I still need to meet. It's just great being up here so thanks again. This one is going to be close I think between two guys, and either one deserves it this month.
:thanks:
