Hi Luc,
I also faced the same problem today while voting in Some Articles. Thought, it must be something wrong with my browser settings as I have seen people voting with comments within that time period. I tried with Chrome & it sucked.

Chrome is extremely aggressive about caching. If you force a reload (or clear your browsing cache) then you'll see the updated and corrected javascript.

I've been hunting around a bit, but I can't work out how articles get nominated for the monthly competitions.
What gets an article added to the surveys?
If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.

Hunting isn't going to get you nominated. Sending a crate of fine ale, or a decent bike, may do the job. However it all starts by sending a great article.

Adding to what Luc said, don't share the article link with your colleagues before it gets nominated for the survey. (Just a piece of advice  )
Article rating plays a major role in order to get selected. If your article gets quite a few vote from same IP (colleagues voting from same company) then the probability of your article getting selected is reduced a lot. (I experienced - happened with me!  )

Well, I have written several articles, and have had a particular article up on Code project for a few weeks, and have had a pile of votes without mentioning it to anyone.
Someone having voted said, it could be good enough for the article of the month.
I just couldn't work out if I need to nominate it, and if so how, or does someone else nominate, also how. For example, how would I nominate one of your articles? No idea.
I was looking on other articles for a nominate button, but no.

Sounds like a good article and to be in Top10 of the month in its category!

No way! CP decides that internally. We are not told of how and why.

Does that IP Checking also apply then to the audit process when finalizing the winners?
I think my latest one deserves a prize just for being something related to CP.......or maybe thats just my wishful thinking!

Probably! Might be!
At bottom of the survey, it is mentioned: "Note: These results are un-audited numbers. All voting results will be tabulated and audited at the conclusion of voting. The results you see here may differ as a result of that auditing process. CodeProject.com makes no guarantees to the live results which you see here."
So, IP checking might be part of auditing!

Done the article, but who do I send the beer to? 
I've seen a few other articles in the last year or so that I would have nominated, but I couldn't see how, so the authors missed out.

Everyone votes the articles up, and I think staff nominates, hence ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) to Toronto.
A simple "Chris, Toronto, Canada" will suffice. They all know him by now.

All articles are automatically in the running. Articles are chosen for final member survey based on their rating.
However: gifts of bikes, beer and/or wine will always be received with grace.

I went to vote an answer in Q/A, and the vote button/link is missing. I can select a radio button, but that's all.

Clicking on it doesn't automatically cast your vote? Could be a script caching issue (though it shouldn't be...)
Browser?

Do a Cntrl+F5 and new JS will get downloaded. Now, once you click any radio button, it will cast your vote directly (No vote button trigger.)
Further, have a look at this [^]thread.
