And finally, I want to introduce my plans for 2020 special theme. Since I am thinking that might be the final year that I run this, I was planning on running a birthday theme. I have thought of two options:

1. Each user gets a free pick on their birthday month
2. Each user nominates two games apart from their noms in the month before their birthday and users vote on which of the two will be featured on their birthday month

Basically one option gives a single user all the power while the other makes it more of a collaborative venture.

I can go into further details later, but basically the birthday pick will replace a drawing pick (2 drawn, 1 selected by birthday person). I originally thought about going with the first option, but I realized people might not be on board with fewer draws, so option 2 would guarantee a birthday person a game that they want but the rest of us make the final decision.

If two or more users have a birthday in the same month, then we would have four games that month. I want to guarantee at least two games are chosen from a drawing each month. If somehow 3+ users share a birthday month, I would probably punt however many users I need to another month until we have no more than two user birthday picks in a single month.

Picks/Nominations would be subject to normal rules (cannot have been done before, must be acquirable on its own), but the reason I would ask for these picks/noms beforehand is to avoid the chance for non-birthday people and a birthday person nominating the same game.

I hope this wasn't too complicated/scatterbrained, but let me know if anyone has an opinion on either route.
