Ni Hao!

Welcome to the first Chinese Series of the Month (CSoTM) Poll.

As the name implies, the CSoTM is dedicated to seeding completed Chinese drama series—be they from Mainland China, Hong Kong or Taiwan—with ENGLISH subs.
This is an important stipulation and it must be understood from the outset.
Repeat : CSoTM is for Chinese drama series with ENGLISH subs only.
There will be no CSoTM seeding of Chinese drama series without ENGLISH subs, period.

The CSOTM will be monthly for short series with an extension for longer series.

For the what, why, and how’s of a SoTM, please see this thread by puccakiss79:

Please note: to qualify for voting privileges, you must have at least 10 posts.
This is to prevent users from creating multiple new accounts for the sole purpose of padding the vote count.
More info can be found at this thread:
http://www.d-addicts.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5510

And be forewarned : There are definite ways to detect cheaters, so don’t even think about cheating to get your desired drama to win. Confirmed cheaters will be dealt with in a stern but judicious manner. Don’t say you haven’t been warned!

For this first CSoTM, voting will close on the 13th February, 2005.
Seeding for the winning series will then begin on the 14th February, 2005 and ends 31st March, 2005.

A great big thank you to all the volunteer seeders, without you this would not be possible. Wub

If any seeder cannot help seed this month, please PM either Kai Lien or myself to let us know ASAP. Thanks again!

Ok, so now for the fun part.
Without further ado, we present the candidates to the very first CSoTM:

name in violet = seeder has an incomplete series

Candidate nominations for the next CSOTM should be posted in this thread, but remember that nominations should be for completed series, and the completed series should hopefully have declared volunteers. (It’s pointless to vote for a series if there are no seeders willing to seed if and when it wins.)

Have fun voting, play fair, and let's make our first CSoTM a successful one!

Cheers,
Kai Lien & Tama

A big thank you and hug to BT-Slut Wub

Hi tama...can you please explain as to if batch torrents are part of SOTW? I think those are harder to get/distribute....please clearify..

ahh.. good point xiaryx,

I've spoken to Jem and if one of his series win and its hosted over at his tracker, we all go there to seed.
If it's a HK series from Jem that was uploaded here, we either use the torrents thats already upload (if it's not messy) or we can make batch torrents of 5 episodes each and seed from that.
For the more recent series uploaded here in D-addicts, the torrents should still be ok to use, if not, I will make new torrents in batches of 5 episodes each.

cheers.
