Entry of the Month - November and December Voting

3 Conversations

Entry Of The Month!

Welcome to Entry Of The Month, the Post column that celebrates the very best of writing for the Edited Guide.

Sorry For The Delay!

Apologies to those who were waiting for three months, but I was doing important things like getting married. To try and catch up, we'll have two months' worth of voting, then two more in two weeks.

I am happy to announce that Envy-Free Cake Division was awarded October's Entry Of The Month, and should now be in possession of a shiny badge.

IMPORTANT: Please only post once to the voting forum. Votes can then be quickly counted without having to double-check. Please do not try to vote anywhere else. You may vote for your own Entry if you wish. This system is reliant on your goodwill and honesty.

Candidates For November's Entry Of The Month

Candidates For December's Entry Of The Month

In an effort to catch up after my tardiness, I haven't requested any nominations. Please feel free to vote for a different, eligible Entry in the forum.

How Does This Work?

The starting point of EOTM is to gather a list of nominations. At this point, it would probably be a good idea to
visit the Unofficial Front Page Archives,
if you are not yet acquainted with them.

IMPORTANT: Please check the date on the Entry you are nominating. It happens that old Entries are sometimes put back on the Front Page for a 'second spell'. The Entry Of The Month must be actually first published in the month in question.

The second article of the month will be to vote on the shortlist of
nominated Entries and award EOTM status. I don't intend to have secret
ballots or any such rubbish, just a series of fora for voting.

What Are The Criteria?

This is either the crowning glory or the thorn in the rose - there
aren't any! What we're looking for are the Guide Entries that have
appealed most to Joe Public over the past month, and people are bound
to have different selection policies. Perhaps your vote might go to
Entries that have amused you, or maybe you'd rather nominate those
that are sparklingly written or on a topic you are particularly
interested in.

All an Entry needs to qualify is to have been put on the Front Page
for the first time in the last month - please check the date when
making your nominations.

Whatever your criteria, please add any of your own
nominations to the voting forum below. The last thing I want this to do is turn into a one-man show; I'm trying to practice democracy here,
dammit!
