I mean for example to show your mutual respect, they vote for the other person and vice versa.

you know Wisconsin is my favorite state, right? I lived in Waterloo and Madison as a GI brat. And I was a FIB when I was in high school in northern Illinois too - used to go to Kenosha for beer nights. :D

7. I Believe It's Alright |
|
If you have written a piece in which you have a lot of pride, I see nothing wrong with suggesting it for the front page. Your work may have been overlooked by those who would have nominated it. Someone may have seen it, been very impressed, but forgotten about the option to nominate it. Make sure your piece at least gets considered.

9. I Don't Know How It Works |
|
I envisioned a 'committee' of mods deliberating over front-page content without regard to the number of nominations. Still, it couldn't hurt to show confidence in your own work.

13. At the bottom left of every main post, there is an icon |
|
"Nominate thread for homepage"
Anyone can click it, I think. If your thread gets enough nominations, the Mods will put it on the home page.

I didn't know it depended on the number of nominations, however. Very democratic! :7

16. I didn't think you COULD nominate your own thread |
|
I've never tried, since I was afraid that there would be an automatic message from the moderators screaming AMERICAN TRAGEDY JUST TRIED TO NOMINATE HER OWN THREAD HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! or something.
