    The Forum Hall Of Fame - call for Selection Committee

    As part of the ongoing and tireless efforts to stimulate and engage the forum community a selection committee will be assembled to vote and induct their fellow community members into the CC forum hall of fame.

    Over the years there have been many outstanding and productive members that deserve to be honored for their contributions.

    The selection committee will be tasked with establishing rules for, and voting on, admission to the HOF.

    We're not ready to nominate inductees yet, but I'd like to open the floor for nominees for the selection committee. Its preferred that you nominate someone else but feel free to nominate yourself, as well.

    With your nomination please include a link to their profile page(s) and a description of why they'd be good for the selection committee. In our selection committee we are prioritizing traits such as seniority, activity, diversity in era (of their main activity). These nominees do not have to be well known names, big contributors, or even currently active posters - but we do need a way to contact them (email, messenger app, carrier pigeon, etc).

    The exact number on the committee will be determined by feedback, number of quality nominations, and our ability to create a diverse and knowledgable group.

    This is a good idea! There are several people who would be a good addition to this committee.

    I would nominate The Reaper ( http://www.funzio.com/forum/member.php?61088-The-Reaper ) for his excellent work with LTQ threads. I could nominate BigMoney too for this, but I haven't seen him post for a while and I think that he is banned currently?

    He made a bunch of useful guides back in the day, and he aggregated guides which are hilariously still stickied even though ridiculously out of date. This was back when the forums were 80% strategy and 20% drama. I doubt you can get in touch with him though, maybe someone out there still around knows him IRL?... but he deserves a nomination, he really did contribute more than anyone else I can think of since the beginning.

    best hood planning XLS by far.. still live off of it to chase the optimal upgrade, I think he quit since he stopped posting. I don't want to post his personal email but he posted it quite a few times on the forum so it can be dug up if he wins.

    I would have nominated duder too, but I didn't agree with his approach to hood planning, but he wrote several novels about it....

    There are a number of people like Tramp Stamp back in the day that are no longer here to accept the honor. They have all been replaced by blowhards like Montecore.

    I suggest replacing Montecore with Molly's Voice. He has more credibility.

    I think the OP was asking for nominees for the selection committee, not for those you all want in the HoF. And all the names so far sound like candidates for the HoF. I'm not sure you usually find the Oscar committee adjudicating on themselves. That would take Montecoreanism to new heights, even in here.

    Correct. This is just for a solid group that can debate the HOF nominees (we will have a thread for the actual HOF nominees in the future) and the committee will ultimately vote on those nominations.

    The reason for a trustworthy selection committee rather than popular vote is so it doesn't become a one syndicate orgy like the main page. Also, current members don't necessarily know about or have the full history (or time to learn that history) of the all time greats.
