Overhauling the "Mazda of the Month"

[hat1018]

I don't think that is a problem at all. The stanced group does a good job of policing the non-stanced guys. Sometimes they are rather rude about it too.

That's exactly what I'm worried about. They will be in here making a bigger fuss about who is stanced or not than actually promoting MOTM. It will turn into a flame war instead of the fun natured competition it should be.

Yeah that would not be good. Maybe a name change to "Wheel Fitment"? That way we get some people with more "meaty" fitment.

maybe anyone that's modified wheels + tire size + suspension? idk...just throwing stuff out there. something the would make a definite yes or no with no gray area

I would prefer not to see someone on cheap ebay springs with sunken wheels from America's Tire in the running against another car on air with legit wheels. I know Antoine is trying to capitalize on the popularity of the "stance scene," which makes sense given how many people choose to modify their cars in that style.

Am I the only one who wishes the old mazda of the month was still going?

Can't believe it's nearly Christmas and then 2014! As always, thanks for the feedback...Are we cool with the following setup...The only way to know for sure is to give it a try!

*Revised | Monthly Theme ideas...
-------------------------------------
Jan = Newer Mazdas (2010 and newer)
Jan2 = "Mazda of the Year" Voting
Feb = Audio & Interior
Feb2 = MOTY Announced
Mar = Boosted Mazdas
Apr = Motorsport Mazdas
May = Rotary Powered
June = Suspension & Rims
July = Coupes & Convertibles
Aug = Sedans
Sep = Hatchbacks, Crossovers, Wagons and SUVs
Oct = Club Pics
Nov = Your Best Shots
Dec = Older Mazdas (2009 and older)
-------------------------------------

- Move the MOTM Forum to the Top Forum section

- Add a Main Nav Bar Tab which would direct to the MOTM Forum

- Add "Mazda of the Month" Sub-Forums to all Model-Specific Forums that link directly to the MOTM Forum

- At least 2 pics of your Mazda (of any kind) with a maximum of 5 pics

- Simplified Description Requirement

- Voting...This time though, votes only count from those Members that joined Mazdas247 during the previous month or before...This would allow for a lot more qualified votes and it would streamline the verification process (takes less time to verify join date than post count via the poll)

- Mazdas247 Gear Prize as before in addition to a "Sponsor the next MOTM" message encouraging Authorized Vendors and AMMs to Sponsor a MOTM (and provide a prize) in exchange for increased exposure on Mazdas247

*Contemplating | Mazdas247 FB Page to promote MOTM & M247 (managed by Members)

Bump

 

[Mp5Noob]

Is it happening?

 

[Antoine]

Is it happening?

Yes! Sorry for the delay...I've been swamped with Family visiting for the holidays, I will start setting this up today!

 

[Justin2129]

Is there a possibility we could have a thread with one good pic of each MOTM winner, rather than having to go through every individual thread to look at them?
