Scott: Please put in red letters or something a message about not damn asking to be in the HOF or to be on the panel.

Thanks

Re: FFR Hall of Fame

use the list I made in the previous thread as a base. I didn't look through any old threads or older top lists... was all off the top of my head... but I'd say all the names I mentioned are probably worthy of consideration, if not induction.

Re: FFR Hall of Fame

I'm willing to help in any way that that is needed. I know you said not to ask to be a judge, and I don't want to be a judge. I've done stuff like that before and I don't want to do it again, or at least not right now.

Just a little thought, some has been said before, some has not. some are probably stupid ideas, but whatever.
top ffr players
top spinitup players

important forum goers
important chat peoples

Re: FFR Hall of Fame

I love how many people are trying to point to some single accomplishment in thehopes of getting into the hall of fame.

I think you're far better off treating it like most existing sports halls of fame: Allow in people in all the categories you've been listing (players, simfile writers, forum presences etc) but don't categorize them based on what they did to get in.

Hold open votes for a given era, say have the judges generate a top list of 10 or 15 people for the era they're looking at, open it up to voting by veteran people (You'd have to do it via PM rather than a poll to establish that voters were around long enough to qualify [Baseball has the 'veterans commitee' to vote]) and then the judges would make the final determiniation from say, the top 8, of 4 or 5 people to be inducted that time into the hall of fame.

Further elections of people sufficiently old could take place as time went on.

This avoids the need to pin down precise eras in your voting. If the list of 15 people come from "Anyone whose account is older than 2 years" with each successive election of people, you have newer people who've qualified into that bracket, giving you no shortage of potentials to induct.

Then the honour would be primarily in being inducted earlier rather than later, instead of trying to decide whether it is more of an honour to get into the "old" year-range when there were fewer people, but the exceptionals stood out more; or the newer range where there is more fierce competition.

Barry Bonds might end up in the hall of fame for all the home runs, but he'll still have to deal with getting in as Hank Aaron's "equal" but decades later in what is functionally an entirely new game.

Re: FFR Hall of Fame

sweeet, nice to see this is going to become something.
I like the idea of seperating it out by different time frames.


thats all i have to say.

Re: FFR Hall of Fame

Damn. But if a Spread player AAAs an FMO song and a 1 hander AAAs an FMO song. Who is better?

Not gonna happen.Obviously the one hander, but no. That's gay Rebirth, you need a like top 5 One handers, Spread players,Indexers and crap. /Wrist i hate you.

Re: FFR Hall of Fame

@ Devonin
I definitely see what you're saying, I still think the way I'm going to do it works just as fine. For the player Hall of Fame, we're going to first do research. Looks at the achievements set by players that first come to mind via threads, archives, etc. Gather up a list of players that seem "induction worthy based on the time period", and categorize them by age. We're not going to be placing people in order of how good they are, rather by when they should be inducted. I asked everyone to look for when each player was at the prime of their game, or rather, at what point in time the player should have been inducted. Considering we're doing it like this, we are still able to induct active players at a certain time period.
With each person we induct, we'll list a small amount of information for why they were inducted, followed by whether or not they are active or not. For active players that are inducted, each time this list gets updated, we can just add more to the information next to their name (if other things are worth recognizing).
As for the other types of Hall of Fame categories, we're not going to need judges. I'll be holding polls for each category. We're hoping to have the Player HoF done by around the 7th, and the rest of the HoF categories done before 2008. I'd actually like to release the actual entire list New Years Eve; every category and the other things we'll be adding to it. This gives about 3 weeks for polls, and I'll figure out how long each will last/how many there will be after the PHoF is done.

Re: FFR Hall of Fame

I dont now if you want nominations or just comments about how we feel about how your runiing it, but I say that for the 2006 era Bill_Clinton kicked alot of ass.
