Free Pallet of Mapeker Rapid Coming Soon for JOTM

[Dan]

Tile Giant and Mapei have teamed up to offer us a JOTM prize that you'll love.

We're just having a think about which month this will be for and discussing whether we should do a one-off JOTM in the main tiling forum to allow all tilers registered on here to join in. We don't know if we'll go with that yet.

The prize will be a pallet (48 Bags) of Mapeker Rapid for the job with the most votes when we create the poll after having all entries submitted.

A big thanks to both Tile Giant and Mapei who have offered us this.

We'll keep you posted on the details as we sort them out.

How about a "Job of the year" where the 12 JOTM winners square off against each other for the ultimate accolade, with the pallet going to the winner?? Now would be an ideal time to do JOTY 2009.....

Hey Jimbob

I think thats a great idea. The only thing I can think of Dave is that it makes us feel kinda special being in the arms and nowing that it pros looking and judging not ever Tom Dick or Harrys.

That could be a good one. But it would mean only the guys who have won prizes already get to win this prize and it doesn't seem very fair for the guys who recently got access to the arms and didn't manage to enter in the past.

I'd like it to go to any of the tilers to try and encourage as many as possible to enter in the comp.

Though food for thought there.

Good point. I just know there are a load of tilers who haven't bothered to gain access to the tilersforums arms for whatever reason that I think should be able to win such a prize. Perhaps we have a bit of a think about that and see if the tilers mind their competition entries being in the main tiling forum just this once?

The only thing i can see happening with jotm is people entering several times over the year and not winning, then not bothering to enter again. I personally think it should have a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, places every month, and prizes split...three ways. As i can see this getting less and less entries over the year.

Perhaps you're right mate. We're lucky to get prizes to be honest as it's not in the sponsorship terms per se. So I don't know if we'd ever be able to guarantee three prizes each month.

I'd like to think that when people do a good job they think when it's done 'this would be a good one for JOTM' as it's all fair when it comes to voting on the entries.

So if it does get quieter, and 3 people do good jobs, they'll submit them and one will win. I don't think people will every stop submitting them fully though as generally they're always uploading pictures to their profiles anyway so why not stick that months job in to see if they win - they don't lose anything.
