    Yes, I am thinking of adding a few new features to the site and the ROTM will have increased exposure on the forum. Of course, the Requester of the Month will be voted on by all of you.

    Thank you for the feedback. We need to take advantage of the community we have here to try to improve mturk as a whole. I think if requesters get recognized and appreciated, mturk will improve, and requesters communication and transparency will improve.

    I would love to do Turker of the Month as well.... But i'm sure sure how it would be judged. As I don't think requester's want to deal with it, plus you have the cross linking issue... no one's mturk identity translates to mturk forum identity easily... and it would likely be voted on by turkers which wouldn't make that much sense... still thinking on that one

    He must be. I think his thread under great requesters must be the single longest one on this site. I see it used every day. I've never done any of his hits though.

    I guess [TOTM] could just basically be member of the month as voted on by peers w/ a small prize. That would draw in lurkers FOR SURE.

    Hey Andy, you know a good way to go about it might be a poll, like the previous ones on the top of the page, within your desired timeframe each month. You could choose options from this page and then get more refined results via the poll.

    Cheers! -Lucius

    Yes, that sounds like a great idea. Take nominations and then the most nominated goes into the poll.
