Excellent point, jw! This month's COTM comp alone has a dozen covers that are easily worthy of COTM (not saying that because one of them is mine, either), but only one can emerge victorious from the fight. Timing is everything.

well said.
HOWEVER, I myself found a couple or four more than worthy COTY - covers that DID NOT go through our WIP forum, and thus didn't have a shot of the monthly title.. If we make this competition into WIP COTY thats another story - BUT THIS competition is for ALL covers - and EVERYONE can nominate EVERYTHING!! :arms: :arms: Isn't that wonderful?. End of discussion. :arms: :arms:
Remember that not every cover that gets a nomination, moves on to the voting stage.
We really need to move on now

Got to agree with JR, there are loads of top class cover that never went through WIP, take sleepyheads covers, they never went through WIP but theres a couple of them that are well worth nominating.
