I'd like to add more to my previous post...nominees are supposed to be members for at least 90 days, that's plenty of time to make lots of friends here.
Also, the original election was supposed to nominate/elect people who have positive influence, so I hope if people self-nominate, there will be people seconding those nominations, just to ensure friendship and positive influence of the self-nominee...
and...if non-winners are supposed to have a certain percentage of the vote (is it 5% or 10%?) to be placed on the following week's ballot again, the self-nominating people need to be aware of that and be certain they can gather at least 10% of the current vote, they'll really need to be prepared to generate votes, if they can get at least 1 vote per day for the week of the election, that's all it would take to get about 10% right now.
Is the 10% of the vote rule still in effect for being on the ballot again, or are all 3 non-winners just placed back on it, regardless if they didn't get a certain percentage of total votes? Quote:
Is a new forum needed for self-nomination? Can't people just nominate themselves thru personal message to the POTW Team? If it's a public forum, are people going to feel comfortable nominating themself in public, or worried about what other people think?
I believe in self-nomination, but also think if newer members take the time to make friends, they can let people know they're interested in being nominated.

Topic Self Nomination
I Vote Yes
Is it going to Happen.Where should we start.Who wants to build the forum for it if we do this.
Looks Like the few people in this forum have the say because we are the only ones that give our feedback.
We got 60 Votes in the last POTW we can Beat that Number.
So i say Lets Get It ON.
