I've changed my vote to what I believe the more accurate of my choices. I'm honestly apathetic about SoTM, but Zed wants it and I mean why not?
 * 1) Can a staff member receive SotM multiple times? I'd say yes, there is no point to SotM if eventually every staff member will have been SotM at some point and SotM effectively ends forever.
 * 2) How do you make sure SotM will not become a popularity contest, but instead reward one of the staff members who objectively deserved to be SotM? (This is probably a biased question.)
 * 3) What will the "award" look like?
 * 4) If you answered "yes" to question 1, I'd suggest a small icon (maybe a star or a thumb up) which can be appended multiple times to the current staff tag.

But it will be very difficult to have it be objective, staff members like Rocket or Matt (who aren't active as much but still contribute a ton) would probably win less than staff members like myself, who are very active but don't really contribute.
