So I wanted to make this quick-ish artikel about how the peminat of the bulan thing works. Who knows, maybe some of anda who didn't want to participate before may want to now! These things are usually done in lebih active spots like spots for couples atau popular tv shows, but this spot is NOT really that active and that's why I wanted to do this contest thing. I want to encourage lebih activity! So here's just a general faq about FOTM! I hope anda participate!
How is the FOTM determined?
A pick will be made (by me) with usernames of the people who have participated within this spot in the last month. Then users will vote for who they think has done the best job. The pick will close at a certain date, and whoever has the most undian then will be FOTM.
Can I vote for myself?
Well yeah sure! I can't tell anda who to vote for. If anda think you've done a good job with the spot and have participated feel free to vote for yourself and/or add your name to the pick!
How do I get others to vote for me?
sejak participating of course! anda can add yourself to the pick and vote for yourself, but the only way to guarantee anda will get undian is sejak participating in the spot! Sending messages atau leaving komen-komen to people to vote for anda is just in bad taste. So please try to avoid that.
What influences a vote?
Like I've said, activity in the spot. Here's a little senarai of things that might influence a user to vote for you.
Videos - Adding trailers, movie clips, interviews, etc to the spot.
Pictures - Adding wallpapers, photos, icons, screencaps, and/or peminat art with proper credit.
Picks - Adding picks, coming up with creative picks, etc.
Links, Articles, Trivia, Forum - Also generally anything in these sections.
Comments - komen-komen are really crucial to the spot. Sure, lots of things can be added to the spot but if nobody komen-komen on them how do we know if they like it atau not?!
Do I win anything?
Um, bragging rights? A sense of superiority? FOR A WHOLE MONTH! I mean, how cool is that?! anda deserved it after all, for being FOTM in the horror movie spot of all spots. I think it would also be a pretty cool idea to conduct an interview with the winner, which will be telah diposkan here. The soalan would be horror-related of course. But in short, no anda don't win anything material at least.
Please keep in mind that when anda vote, anda are voting for someone who has participated WITHIN THE bulan OF THE CONTEST. For example, if anda see someone has added a lot of great foto-foto to the spot in November 2008, they should not qualify for your vote in FOTM. This is peminat of the MONTH, whoever has participated the most within the bulan of the contest.
So, I hope that was not too confusing and I start seeing a lot lebih activity in the spot! This is supposed to be fun, I don't want to encourage any harsh competitiveness! Just do your best to participate and enjoy!
PS: If I have missed anything that anda want answered, let me know and I will add it ASAP :)
