Right now, I only see two solutions:
- Create a separate category for BOMs and allow many people to post their blocks at the same time. That way, we would have more than two blocks each month and anybody could choose to complete as many blocks as they want. Each BOM would have its own thread, and the only requirement would be not to cross-post in other people's BOM threads, so everything is kept separate.
- Have multiple nominations each month and run the poll. Everybody would vote on the block they like the most, and at the end of the month, the winner (maybe the top two) become the official BOM(s) for the following month.
I see potential problems with both of these approaches, but those are the only ways I see that eliminate the waiting list.
