The first round would involve the community giving up to three nominations for possible TOTMs (one of which could be their own tribute). After about a week of nominations, she would narrow the list down to ten tributes.

The second round would actually involve some voting, with each user voting for three tributes they believe could be TOTM with appropriate reasoning. This round would narrow the voting down to five potential tributes.

The final round would have users voting for one tribute they want to be the TOTM. They also must have appropriate reasoning and cannot be the creator of the tribute. If the voting is close, then she could choose her own tribute from the five she believed deserved TOTM. Similarly, if the voting seemed one-sided, she could determine whether the tribute truly deserved the title. It ensured that the worthy tribute would become TOTM.
