GRITA release or a position on GRITA's ToM (Tracciato del Mese) or elsewhere e.g. release on Polish forum or its own Polish ToM (which exist too) has no influence on this. And I remember well, this MaxGenerally's track never was released on any international forum, the nomination is valid.

Out of that small issue above we have there few more problems this month. From nominations I skipped for now Svitavy by xmilek because it seems to be just minor update of very old track (just added people?). From same reason I very doubt about Bruno Asp's Velopark 2011. Is it enough update of the previous version to add it as nominees (it got 1 vote in summer 2010)? And GP Bahia 2009 by Bruno Asp because I think, that's same track like bit more detail 2010 version, which takes a part in the voting too (analogy to ToM rule about historic evolution packs). Do you think, that any of them should be added to the nominees, please?

After we'll solve this Buka can start the voting. :yummy:

trying to think of past examples of similar situations :scratch:

imo, Bahia should be nominated as one track, not twice, i even thought at the time, why didnt he just put the tracks in the same topic.

if Svitavy is just an update it should be skipped as this is just the same principle as Black Rebels updates.

but Velopark, i dont know, its basically the same track, just with a new layout update, a small one at that, but it is more significant than just adding people/1.10 objects. if i was to choose one or the other, i would say allow it :up:

We had bit more complex nominations this months, so it delayed the start.

Otherwise it's 2 week for years AFAIK, in past it was starting closer to end of month, but we increased the gap to allow more time for nominations of tracks released in last few days of month, because they were in past very often missed in nomination list.

Read the 5 posts above your first. It takes few days to investigate it all and then to discuss it. ;)

I just noticed that some of the statistics on the ToM website appear to not be working...
I like short, simple signatures!

Well, this month we don't have many tracks... But i'm seeing the last tracks posted, and I'm certainly that 60% of this tracks deserves a nomination

I'm only asking this since the stats page for this on the TOM website wont work.

I don't think so. Someone should try to make such a track. :cool:

Sorry for offtopic but:
Wouldn´t it be easier to simply nominate each track that was posted during the month?
I never got the point of this whole nomination progress....

But then it would be difficult to choose the best track among so many other tracks. ;)

Scholl, I think not. Simply - nominations are needed, because they giving some "flow" for the track - it shows that some tracks are better than others. (it's good explanation? ;d)

Though Brix and Areen are right, I want to remind that you can vote any track even if it wasn't in a nominees list. ;)

@ Areen:
Buka wrote:When you nominate ... please never edit your nomination posts, as your changes could be overlooked.
Overlooked not just by ToM staff, but also by other people nominating tracks, so the editing can create confusions (multiple nominations of same track etc). Please, send the later nominations rather in new posts next time. :)

BTW thanks for one for Fionn Gorm. :bg:

No problem. I didn't see any posts so I edited first to write more nominations. I don't like unnecessary spam.

ZaishenCircuit is no problem, it's only variations of one track. Nomination of your pack incorrect is. Unless he wanted to nominate just ''T'' Rally from the A&T pack.

@masto_pursi: Jos halusit ehdottaa molempia ratoja, sun pitää mainita molempien nimet, mutta jos halusit ehdottaa vain T Rallya, on homma ok.

Explained the issue.
