So how do we vote in LUGNET as CLSotW ??
This is definitely overdue.

That's very nice to hear.  But I wonder what the practical use would be, since
CLSotW is now a part of the site itself, and also has a banner link promoting

The reason I asked is that I have it on good information that there is
some judge (i.e. Todd) judgement involved, it's not a straight vote. So
even if we all asked for it to be nominated, Todd's natural modesty may

True, it's not a straight pure vote, but like I said before, 19 times out of
20 (or 9 out of 10, I forget) what gets the most votes gets pick that week.
This week was an exeption (barely) -- I think Terry Keller's new model won
over the LeoCAD model gallery by one vote (20 vs. 19, I think).  When
something is that close, usually the site that went on the voting list earlier
is the one that gets it that week.

Other times of course, greater exceptions are made -- such as Bram Lambrecht's
LDraw tutorial going straight to a pick (bypassing voting altogether).
