Re: Section Rules.
An FYI.
I have been asked a few times on how the picks are made. So I thought Id just make a post. With trying to keep as many of the Bugaisums to a minimum. LOL
Old way. If looking back you can see I used to make little games out of the pick, once a week. That started to become harder and harder as we gained more and more people. So onto the new way.
Now days. At the beginning of the month, I make a list of all active members over the last 30 days. This is the list used for picking of MOTW. I then take out all the past MOTW winners. This list is then dropped into a radomizer script, and out pops the winner. I continue to use that list until the next month. When the next month comes around, I again add the actives, new members.
This still has alot of manual work to it. But I would rather it be more manual than a totally automated thing. To me, it feels a little more personal this way. Rather than letting the system do it, generating a name and certificate. But thats me.
So I hope that makes since to everyone. LOL
