For the record, if you can't manage to find the rules due to the Dumb Syndrome, here you go.

1) The creepypasta must be posted on the SomeOrdinaryGamers wiki. Nominations for creepypasta from other sites will not be eligible.

2) Authors  cannot  nominate stories that they have submitted, whether they migrated the story from another site, or they wrote the story themselves. The goal of the creepypasta of the month is to showcase people's favourite stories on the site. It is not a platform for shameless self-promotion.

3) Wikia contributors (non-members) and members with less than 20 total quality posts (not including CPOTM votes) will NOT have their votes counted, as there have been issues with people trying to artificially inflate vote counts and self-nominate in the past. Even if "This is my account, I just can't log in!" is your excuse, it will still not be counted. We're sorry for this, but if you care enough to vote, you should also be invested in the site enough to make and use an account, it's quick, painless, free, and keeps everyone from seeing your IP address.

4) If a comment is in the incorrect format, it won't count. All votes MUST be made in the format displayed up above to be accepted. That way, we can be sure that everyone has read and understood the rules before voting.

5) If the creepypasta that you wish to vote for has already been nominated by another member, reply to the  original nomination with your vote . Your vote must be a reply to the original nomination, and it must be in the correct format in order for it to be counted.

6) You may vote for one pasta, and  ONE PASTA ONLY . Once you have voted, your vote is cast. You may not vote for multiple entries in the same vote. If you do not follow this rule, either only your original vote will be counted, or none will, at an admin's digression.

7) Failure to follow these rules will result in your post(s) being deleted. Depending on the frequency or severity of your violations, additional actions may also be taken as well. In the past, there has been too much trouble with people not following the rules, making it problematic to count the votes. As such, things will be kept neat and organized from now on.
