I would like to vote for one of the Scenery items but not the Aircraft as I have not flown any of them. Unfortunately, I get an error saying I have not chosen a poll choice when I check just a scenery item. Can this be changed or is this a deliberate feature?

Thanks
Rob

That's the way polls work. Download the planes, fly them and vote. You might get some pleasant surprises.

Decisions, decisions...
I'm growing to hate these contests, because all the entries are so good. This month, in particular, has some pretty strong work. Congrats and thanks to all the nominees.

I don't really like them at all, part of the reason that I stopped posting to the DM. Just a personal thing.

I'd hate to think anyone had stopped posting to the DM because of the contests - couldn't you just ask Nicolas to exclude your submissions? (Your choice of course...)

While there are some downsides, I've found several real gems in the DM as a result of the contest nominations. Even though I look at the new submissions most days, I seem to miss some masterpieces.

Excellent point. You can opt out.

As Amerrir pointed out, the contest helps everyone to keep track of what's going on. Submissions get lost in the pile after a few days.
