Vote for what you want to win, not what you think should win.
Batkosio's Prelude has of course brought more members to the forum, this can only be a good thing. Regardless of how often they may post, when they do post it broadens the community. Anything other than being courteous to these guys is detrimental to forum health IMO. It's hardly welcoming to make the assumption that they're only here for one thing. Criticising their presence only serves to encourage a lack of return.
Batkosio getting votes from the Bulgarian contingent is no different to VTI getting votes from the UK lot. Especially when you take into consideration that this month's competition has received the highest number of votes of any LOTM to date (I checked), I don't doubt this is down to a bit of rivalry between nations. If that brings some voters out of the woodwork that never normally take interest in LOTM then again, IMO of course, this is a good thing as it is promoting healthy competition, interest in the members rides has obviously sparked up and it's creating forum activity.
8.3/10 to those of you meowing for a saucer of milk though, good effort.
