Said the guy who claims he doesn't turn the topic of threads to himself.
I nominate checkmateibeatu, in case he spends too much time trying to get everyone's attention so he'll be nominated.
I wasn't turning the topic to me by simply stating I would wait a bit this month.
You were assuming anyone gave a damn about you, though.
Maybe he was turning the topic to waiting a while or this month, which of course are pretty darn interesting.
Obviously not that interesting, or he would have made a new thread for the announcement.
I'll nominate Cladclan cause he's the one who least expects it.

You should add a dog with shifty eyes to this post.

Works for me. I would never trust a dog that holds a ball like that.
He's been here over a year, and hasn't posted in the open forum at all. Though he has for his groups.
I know he's declined to run in the past, but I'm nominating PrawnEatsPrawn anyway.
He has spent more time trying to help me understand the intricacies of chess than any normal person would bother with. He is extremely patient with my idiocy and never refuses a game with me even though he often doesn't even get one point for beating me.
He is among the most clever, funny, and original forum denizens at chess.com.
And, maybe most importantly, he is co-captain of the Red Ass Brigade.
Do you know someone who needs to be mentioned? Well you've come to the right place. Join this month's Chess Player of the Month for October 2011! (aka CPOTM) The rules are that you can nominate anyone on chess.com for whatever reason. Whether it would be friendly, humor, or personality, they can be nominated. However, please try to keep is positive about your nominated person.
Each person can nominated up to 4 nominated members. You HAVE TO SAY why you want to nominate he/she or you will be ignored. If a member that you want to nominate has already been nominated, do not say: "I second the nomination!" or "I etc. the nomination." However, you can say another reason why you think that person should be nominated. I cannot be nominated. You cannot nominate yourself. Those who have won the other CPOTM contests cannot win again. Also, in order to be a candidate, the candidate must have logged on to chess.com no more than one month before the current month on the thread.
The past winners are:
veggiegirlie, haddad56, deckers1066, Alan_Tudor, LisaV, heinzie, goldendog, ilikeflags, OmarCayenne, blackfirestorm666, batgirl, bigpoison, Kacparov, echecs06, TheGrobe, pdela, oinquarki, corrijean
so they cannot be nominated again. It follows the same rules as the other Chess Player of the Month forum topics I have posted.
As for the voting rules, we will be vote on the last week(s) of this month, depending if we have a lot of nominated members or not. You will have 2 votes and cannot vote for yourself. However, you can't use both your votes for the same person. Both votes do not need to be used. Also, I want to make it clear that there is no advertising to vote for one member for it will not be fair for the member(s) not advertised. If you do advertise, you will be blocked until the end of this month AND next month, and the nominated player you have advertised will be removed from the list.
I want to make it clear that I do understand that I cannot control one's actions from advertising, but at the same time, they should always take a look at the first post of this thread. From now on I will not be responsible for your actions, so beware. Spamming will be taken seriously so if you spam, you will be blocked until the end of the month.
Finally, all of you have to know that this is for fun and it is just a game.The purpose is to meet new members, create new friends, and see the personalities of the people around chess.com. It might be a popularity contest, but in the past, I have seen members nominate new members to chess.com who they thought were amazing friends. Feel free to send me personal messages about any ongoing problems. The winner will receive a trophy for winning this month.
It is now October so get ready to nominate! Any questions?
IMPORTANT NOTICE! CHESS PLAYER OF THE MONTH WILL OFFICIALLY END JULY 2012! THESE LAST MONTHS ARE GOING TO BE THE LAST CHANCES TO WIN.
I have not decided yet, but some sort of chess.com membership prize MAY be eligible for the winner of July 2012, the month where past winners will compete. If you have any questions or comments about the prize of July 2012, do not post in this thread, but send me a message.
