Just a reminder to the BOTM winners to get your votes in this month. I think it's going to be a close race so get them in!

Remember you can vote for your own bait in any creative category that you think has serious contention and you can vote for your bait in 3 big 8 awards excluding BP, along with a Top 10 excluding your bait as well.

Include your winners, too. Good luck.

Peace & Love,
D.W.

I thought the rules were you only do a top 10 (without your bait included) and you can vote for your bait anywhere you'd like.

I wasn't sure until I checked Johnny's post from last April (I believe it was), and those were the terms...not sure, but maybe he's changed 'em since then.

hey does anyone know when the nominations will be announced?

I think the 23rd. Ballots are usually due the 21st. But since it's Christmas, Johnny might wait till this weekend to post 'em.

Thanks BOTM winners for being as proactive as usual. We'll announce nominees on Dec. 25 and winners on Jan. 2nd.

*AND FOR NEXT MONTH ONLY: You may submit 3 baits for competition in January (but you must send them all together between Jan 1-10 or they won't be accepted)

Sounds like a good turn out, great going. I think there are going to be some surprises. Good luck y'all and keep on voting. next month is supposed to be stacked. Looking forward to it.

Peace and love!

Oh my so we can do three baits for next month? I hope two will be alright. I have an idea for a second bait that I think might be worth exploring. This is so exciting. You guys are all just great.

Just please don't release Holy Cow 4, I beg of thee.

No, I won't be releasing Holy Cow 4. I'm doing a film that will have a documentary type feel to it with, what I think, is a great cast. I'm so excited about this film and the direction I will be taking it in. I just hope it is able to come across to others like it has to me.

I'm sorry, but I'm taking down my posters for my film. I just didn't realize that I was joining a contest where people were going going to be so mean and hateful to me for no reason at all. You guys have fun trashing people.

You can take down posters after posting them?

More purpose idiocracy.
