I don't like the idea of administrators suggesting articles, per say. It would be quite a good idea, but some users may suggest articles that are qualitative - like myself with No One Lives Forever, and the current PotM suggestion Deathbed Table. How about we omit the users voting on stories, but rather have the following: Users suggest their articles that they aren't categorized as a Spinoff, or a trollpasta. And let the staff that edit on the site - VCROC, Admins, Bureaucrats - decide on who would be the winner. Rather than one story being recognized, have two to three stories nominated as a winner for that month. The downside of this is users complaining why their story didn't win, or why the old way has been thrown out. I can see my whole suggestion happening, kind of. I like this idea, but I also want to propose a middle ground. Why not have a committee set up? Like we have a bunch of active users that aren't in positions of power, that are intelligent enough to handle this well. Users suggest as you stated, but have the committee be a specific, specialized group of users. Yeah. I can actually see 33-34 users being a part of the committee. Why 33-34? It can actually keep votes in perfect order, so that there won't be a tie between one story or another. If it's an even amount of stories that the admins didn't review for the committee to vote then the full 33 users are permitted to vote on it. If it's an odd amount of stories then the extra guy can come in and vote so that there's no tie breaker.
