If COTM is dead, I'd like to see it resurrected. Where is everyone?

It really is work to maintain the organization in this forum...I would like to see at least two people set as the "main" moderators/organizers/volunteers in this forum. I know PearHead helps out...(and it is greatly appreciated)...but it deserves more than one person as the Cache Of The Month Volunteer...

To all...I apologize for the delay in opening a thread for October nominations until now - I thought I had opened it at the beginning of Sept. when I closed the August nominations window. Obviously not. No nominations for August means that the runner up for July is by default August's winner. Congrats to both Good-boy and jenhen!

I'm also willing to help, I'm more timely on doing things on a computer than getting approvals and placing/finding caches Wink

Plus I have a cache to nominate for January cache of the month anyway (so as long as I can still nominate caches), I'd be willing to help.

Board:

What is the status with COTM? You have two volunteers (including one taking the bull by the horns).

Any feedback to those wondering what's going on?

Time to outsource COTM. I have a new website in the works. Should be ready by spring. Smile

When I sent a pm to the President about COTM he told me that the Board was discussing the issue at their next Board meeting. I had hoped the Board would post a note to that effect on the forums, but so far nothing.

Thanks Archer for taking the initiative.

For those that are wondering what is going on with the COTM the board has turned the moderator responsibilities over to msteffel to keep it going while we figure out a plan. We are still trying to get a hold of millah to find out what has happened. We are also going to be discussing the long term plan at our next meeting. We will be discussing the possibility of multiple mods for the COTM as well as some guidelines for the mods.
I want to thank msteffel, bflente and archerdragoon for their willingness to help and for the members that enjoy and want to see the COTM continue.

First - thanks to all the volunteers that donate their time and energy. It is really appreciated. As a person that doesn't visit the forms regularly, I have been baffled by the COTM and how it works. I had been wondering how it gets voted upon. Now today I actually see that there is a vote button. Is that new?
