After a recent discussion with hiya, we are starting to agree on terms with a new way to do the voting on the Fannation Hall Of Famers.
We don't think the nominees are the biggest problem. The main problem is biased voting, so here is what we propose to fix it all.
1st: Create a seperate, private group with about 20 people that hiya and I know that are trustworthy. Hiya and I will find some people and maybe have others audition to fill in the rest of the 20 spots that are left.
2nd: We are dropping ALL requirements completely. Everyone needs a fair chance.
3rd: We would go by a rating scale. When the ballot is out, people vote on the each person on the ballot from a scale of 1 to 10. There will be about 10 People per ballot since we would have more people recommending more users. Now, let's say the group of 20 people come up with 30 people to nominate. We will have 3 ballots in the coming month and on each one you give a rating of each person on each ballot when they come out and then at the end we will tell all of who made it into the Hall Of Fame.
4th: Then if the person has an average of 8 or higher, then they will be announced in the Hall of Fame. The announcement blog would have more people on it then usual this way (possibly).
5th: More than one person is eligible to be in the Hall Of Fame at a time. This needs to be fair to everyone.
6th: Depending on how smooth the first trial of this goes, it is a 2 month Set Up for each. So this group will not be inactive, we will be under construction and getting ready for the up-coming ballot. The time difference depends on how smooth we can get through this.
Now here is a recap:
- Get 20 People in a Private Group To Discuss Nominees
- Requirements are gone
- 10 People On Each Ballot
- Rating Scale Used For Voting (8 or Up to Get In)
- Announcement Likely to have More Than 1 Person
- More than one person can get in the Hall at one time.
- Time Difference May Change, Right Now, 2 Months
Now, that is what we have for you. You can either scratch my last idea and stick with this one and trust hiya and I, or you can revolt...
Well, this is what we want to try out, what do all of you think of the newest idea?
Be heard, and thanks everyone.
Have a nice day.

I like the concept, but I fear it might create a backlash depending on who you select for the "group".
In the end though, I'm always in favor of decisions being made properly by objective, reasonable people. Just be careful to choose good representatives.

Porkins, hiya and I will be negociating on who to let in. We are looking for people who can be as un-biased as possible in the situations.

Will only work if you have a set % of voters who are NOT aligned with either SIFS or Atroo. Otherwise, you boys are just beating your chests and the rest of us couldn't give a crap.

I am both trustworthy AND unbiased, in case you need someone for the group.

B.S. If my name ever came up on the ballot DB who hates me could never remain unbiased. I dont hate anyone or have an agenda for who gets into the FNHOF so put me in the private group. Hiya knows I am very trustworthy.

I am not in either of those groups so I am the perfect private group candidate.

I am not in the Atroo myself, and we are looking for people that are unbiased. We are trying to make this as least flawed as possible.

People still go to Cooperstown, so it's no skin off my back if you miss it. Just kidding, Frank. If I were a voter, I'd give you a two, it takes a lot of dedication to lose as much as you have. You're like the Tommy John of FN.

Thug, I know what you're saying. However, it can't be an arbitrary number, that's what got the requirements in trouble. That's how someone like Peachtree could be eligible but someone like AdamLee couldn't.
Peachtree, you're nice, funny, and better than your record indicates, but you're not HoF material.
