side note, since trance is picking the cars, i would like to start a pot that 70% of the winners are going to be AM hahahaha
I quite agree, we need an AM TL of the month. (Can be any color as long as it is AM:-)

Interesting strategy, and not a bad one. So after this initial vote, I'm assuming the next featured TL will be the one that ranked second in that voting, and so on and so on... Or will you put up a new vote each time you're thinking about featuring a new car (with previously featured cars omitted from the voting)?

Hey Ethan, can guests vote? The only reason I ask is because about a thousand guests just PM'ed me ensuring me that I will get their vote! Of course I was flabbergasted because there are other TLs to consider, but they threatened my family if I don't let them! Please help me by making me TL of the Month! I have so much to live for Ethan!! I DON'T WANT TO DIE!!

EEEEEEETTTTTHHHHAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

hey trans, why don't u just pick people at random. this is not a contest , just tl of the month. you can pm each potential member and ask them for a run down of the car. then they should take new pics of their car and post . but there are so many members i can see this going on for years, no including all the new members that join everyday.

I guess im out of the running. Non-moded TL and not as active member of AZ. I just pop my head in every once in a while (like 3-4 times a week). Oh well. Best to luck to all you TL owners!!

i very much agree with you. this will be the most civilized way of doing this. this really is not a contest, we dont want members bumping heads or anything either. I think it would be more fun this way. Just feature a TL. its not who wins.

I totally agree - maybe the powers that be can randomly choose an active user ID - create the featured TL page and email the user with a thread link to post pics & info about their TL?

Only problem being if the feature owner doesn't then we have an empty thread. Maybe we give them a time line and if they do not comply within 24-48 we delete the thread?

Maybe I'm onto something - maybe not

thats a good idea. PM the potential member. give them a couple of days to respond. If there is no response, go to the next member. that way you can weed out the active from the non active members.. Maybe the winner of each month can get some acurazine stickers.. or, even better, a Azine t-shirt.

On a side note Trance how come we are not more active in selling AZ stuff? It would certainly generate some income for the forum....

That's what I was trying to say all along! The only difference being don't make it totally "random"; make sure it's someone who's on the forum at least somewhat frequently.

Understood. Please also understand that I wasn't trying to get myself (or anyone in particular) up there; I was just trying to think of a system to do it a good way.... basically to avoid featuring someone who's never even on AZ.
