2014 Calendar . . Poll's or Surprise??

[DoogyRev]

So just a question . . seeing as I will not be able to do poll's for every month . . would you like to decide some of the months or burst with excitement when you open your package from the postman?

[Vlad]

oh ah..... both sound good haha but it guess its poll for me...

I like suprises...

[14N]

I like surprises, but a poll would be fairer and (hopefully) prevent most of the "why was that pic chosen?" comments.

 

Sent from the fence I'm currently sat on.

[LRF4N]

I'd say poll. Even if there's only 2 pics I think a poll is fairest

[KyleR]

Poll for as many months as possible, surprise for the cover (so long as it's not Octets 70)

 

But on the other hand, if someone has submitted a very very themed photo for say… Christmas, that involves several scantly clad females elves, that would be a nice surprise and screw anyone else who submitted for December

Off out to find some ladies of the night then Kyle . . . don't forget your beard

I can't grow a beard

Poll me!!!

Get Cilla to do it. (or the Jim family)

I'm happy either way. If some months are quiet feel free to move my pics around - if that helps share them out and allow polls for more months.

This is a great idea, why not limit it to Christmas. Can we not get scantly clad ladies for things like Easter, Star Wars Day, Valentines Day.....erm.....Happy September day. etc

[Fraktion]

I'm all about the pole!...erm...poll.

 

Honest mistake.

[DoogyRev]

judging by how close this is . . a bit of polling and a few surprises is the order of the day

[DoogyRev]

How about 6 polls and 6 surprises

[mattross1313]

Sounds Good

So long as one of the 12 is me

Can we have a surprise poll Jimbo?

[GMballistic]

I like a good poll as long as no-one cheats.

[DoogyRev]

I like a good poll as long as no-one cheats.

 

So I should not set it to unlimited entries no?

[ChrisS]

No no no because it will spoil the surprise surprise.

[Ekona]

Do it as a surprise, and do it based on quality of the picture NOT how much money has the owner spent adding that to the outside of their car. A well-shot stock Zed in a thoughtful location would be better as a calendar pic than one of a Zed with a huge body kit on riding on 20" wheels shot in a generic car park with some graffiti around.

 

The calendar has become something of a popularity contest in recent times, rather than quality pics of quality cars.

[ianphampton]

I quite like the exercise of going through the pictures and picking the ones I like - even when I differ from the majority - it's still good to see all the possibles.

 

There are normally lots of pictures I like, even if they don't win -

Please no and check peoples IP address too if suddenly a lot of newbies appear & begin voting.

[davedutch]

Popularity issue can be largely addressed by not telling us who took pic, the idea of polling for some months seems to be popular and suits those fence sitters, Ian, the real question surely is are pics good enough quality and can you poll and print etc in time.

[Ekona]

There's too many cars on here who are easily identified: Wasso, Keyser, Buster, Octet, Ebized, all easy to spot.

[Ekona]

Not saying that any of those cars don't deserve to be on there, but only if the pic merits it. Again, a good shot of a stock DE would be better than a dull pic of the green beastie, no offence meant Keyser.

 

Perhaps a rule that if you were in the last calendar, you won't be considered for this one? Keeps it fresh and stops the same people being in it every year.
