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 rationale 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.

:ciao: Everybody

New contest sponsor - Foods Alive
We'd like to draw your attention to our lovely, long-term sponsor, Foods Alive, who have kindly donated Organic Toasted Hemp Seeds to each of our five monthly contests.

Here comes the science. :)

Hemp seeds offer a healthy source of essential fatty acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6) to the body, but also provide a very high level of dietary fiber, which helps your digestive system remain efficient and healthy. Hemp is also a complete protein, which is unusual for sources that are plant-based.

Since the human body can't produce essential fatty acids (EFAs), it is important that EFAs be consumed on a regular basis. It is estimated that more than 90 percent of Americans take in too little of one of the most important EFAs– omega-3, which is found in flax, walnuts, chia and hemp seeds. EFAs are the good fats that doctors recommend as part of a healthy and balanced diet. This is also an excellent source of Magnesium & Manganese; and is also a good source of Thiamin (B1), Phosphorus, Vitamin E, Iron, Copper, and Riboflavin.

Here comes what Teddy says. :)

"The perfect Moderator's snack. Very, very tasty"

Please check out the full product range on their website. It's thanks to like-minded sponsors such as Foods Alive that 420 Magazine is a free resource for all.

Thank you, Foods Alive. We are truly grateful. :Namaste:

March Member of the Month: The Nominees

Here is this month's shortlist. The poll is now open. Thanks to each of the below for all their contributions. Good luck to all.

All comments are from members' nominations.

Itibitiguy
"I would like to give thanks to itibitiguy as his thread is full of great knowledge to help growers see great tutorials about deficiencies. Above that he does go around and help keep the 420 Magazine spirit alive and with good vibes. I can say he has brightend my day several times and want to take the time to say thank you for your teaching , caring and sharing. On behalf of myself and I am sure others we thank you for hanging around and helping out."

Bilbobudkin420
"Bilbo seems to have a hand in just about everything around 420 Magazine. Polite & friendly; never strays away from questions from new growers. If homeboy doesn't have an answer, I could guarantee he knows another member who does! Seems like he is always finding new ways to better our community; most recently by creating another amazing opportunity working with Seedsman, to set up a sponsored group grow. Bilbobudkin promotes the site sponsors at every turn and welcomes new members with open arms. Once again, doing his part to keep these forums jammin' along. I couldn't think of a better candidate."

Old Salt
"I've seen Old Salt spend lots of time greeting new members and providing advice whenever he has the opportunity. His presence is seen in several forums as he demonstrates a wide array of knowledge in several areas. Often he provides help to new members, and when his advice is overlooked or not taken he will quietly move on to help the next member in need. His commitment to helping others through advice and encouragement mirrors part of what this site is all about. I think it's time Old Salt was recognized for what he does and my nomination goes to him."

Emilya
"Personally I think that one member in particular seems to meet all the criteria in an exceptional way. I would like to nominate Emilya for March '19 Member of the Month. The raw amount of knowledge and support dished out on the daily by Emilya is impressive, to say the least. She is also highly consistent with recommending 420 Magazine's sponsors. It would be awesome to see such a profoundly wonderful contributor in the poll again this month."

Blew Hiller
"I would like to nominate Blew Hiller this month. He has been my Maine Man! I see him all over FAQs helping and commentating. He recommends our sponsors, welcomes new members, takes great photos, is active in the contests, gives out positive vibes and is generally doing all the good things you want from a MOTM."

Chris Scorpio
"I'd like to nominate Chris Scorpio for MOTM. In addition to a great grow journal, he is constantly helping others with grow issues and keeps the 420 Magazine vibe positive." " Chris is around the whole site, helping, advising, and always with a great attitude. If he doesn't know the answer, he says so, but he makes everyone fell welcome and listened to."

:goodluck::goodluck::goodluck:
