Looks like Si is very busy nowadays, the last 2 GOTMs has been late, and it looks like this one is going to be late too... :(

Will it be a GOTM at all?

I would put a zip file with all the contenders online. The organiser would download it and pick 5 goals, then create a new voting thread. :)

Ok, i've uploaded June's entries. There are only 25! If i'd known that i would have sorted this out sooner.

Anyway, AfterDeath, i've moved your entry to July as it came in late anyway. ;) Now you can pick 5 and set up the GOTM June thread. (Try to keep the format the same as the old threads.)

Oh, and PM me the 5 choices before you set up the thread so I can check the player names as lot's of people try to enter using leaked license keys. I'll also need to upload the 5 contenders to the server.

Next month Coomer can try it taking charge. :D

Here are the entries:

Thanks si look forward to hearing from you at the end of the month.
Just had a thought,maybe this is the way to go.eg..The two of us alternate the months.I do next month he does month after,i do month after that ect ect.Lets see how it goes for us both over he next two months.Good luck everyone for this month.

Yeah, I like that idea coomer. That way we can enter the competition ourselves too.

I'll get on it, Si. :D

Guys, i've only received about 5 people's entries this month. I'm thinking i should roll it on to September's competition.

I forgot to send mine, and now I thought it was to late ...
Maybe a small extension?

Well, THAT would be unfair.

Regulations shoudn't change due to lack of participation. There are rules and have to be observed.

If you received only 5, then those 5 deserve to go to the final because they took the interest to choose the goals, save them and send them to you.

So the right thing to do is choose the best 5 goals from these persons and place them to contest the final. That's the price for who spared his time for this competition.

A month is no joke; 30 days are more than enough to send in the goals. The rules are clear for everyone and have been there for ages. Who missed the bus this time, hard luck, there's always next month.

I take it you sent yours then Belfagor. ;)

The thing is, the competition will be stopped altogether if it's not popular so how would you prefer it? Bi-monthly or not at all?

Hi Sim,

I can understand Belfagor's point of view, however I'm willing to accept any decision you take.

As you know, I'm one of those 5 who sent in my goals, but if you feel that the right thing is to roll it on to September's GOTM competiton, for me there's no problem, afterall it's done only to add some spice and fun to the game. I think we should take it in this spirit.

Thanks!!! ;)
