(...) Here's my second dumb question for the day: How do you vote? I went through the MOTM link on Ldraw.org, but there didn't appear to be a sublink to a voting site. What am I missing? That said, what would prevent me, for instance, from asking 80 (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Hmm.. I guess I can understand the temptation to doctor the votes, considering the prize money involved.. oh, wait (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
