October KAOTM

[The Kaptain]

Time to think of which 5 albums we have enjoyed the most during this month!

The voting deadline is:

Midnight Tuesday 31st October


If you are a first time voter in the KAOTM here are a few handy tips...

You may pick 5 albums of your choice which either you, or someone else has posted on this months "What are you listening to now" topic.

We all have 5 votes each, assigned a points value from your chosen positions of 1st to 5th.
You are eligible to vote if you have more than 10 posts.
The Voting form will arrive in your inbox on the last week of each month.

POINTS VALUE ALLOCATION
10... your first and best choice
9.... your second choice
8.... your third choice
7.... your fourth choice
6.... your fifth choice

The objective of the points structure is to assess the greater weight of feeling and strength of all Kabin members who contribute votes,
to find what has been the most favourable [and best] album for each month of the year.

Have fun, enjoy, and may the best album win!

Important Note:- Should you be eligible to vote, but have not yet had the PM, please let me know as soon as possible.
