Default Tank of the month?
Whats the deal with RB tnak of the month? Haven't seen any activity in a long time. I suggested a while ago to try and bring some interest to TOTM maybe the winner's tank could be displayed on the home page of this forum for the month.

I know we have lots of members with beautiful tanks, what would it take and who do we need to discuss this with to keep TOTM going?....please do through out your suggestions.

At this time there are no plans to start TOTM up again. It was discontinued for lack of support.

Thanks Ryan.

When you say support are you talking of participants or sponsors ($$$)?

I have a hard time believing that no one participated in TOTM. Lame!

It is true, there were usually the same people participating, noone at all, or not enough participants to have the contest.

You could do 2 categories. A never won category and a "Best of the already won" what do you say? I could spearhead it if you want Ryan.

I would be up for another go at it, I do think there would need to be the 2 categories, already won and haven't won. I always liked the TOTM contest but like said there has been a lack of participation. I think the month I did it there was only 2 or 3 of us....
