This is how it goes down. </p><p>The HOF Committee will choose 10 nominees and the Community that is not in the Committee is going to choose 10 nominees. </p><p>Then the HOF Committee is going to debate down to 10 nominees that are going to be on the primary ballot.</p><p>Some could be your picks, some could be ours. Then the ballot will be presented to the people in the Community while the people in the Committee vote on the nominees. </p><p>Then the HOFers will be announced to everyone.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>- So what I need from all of you is 10 nominees. Make them worthy nominations, please.</strong></p><p><strong></strong></p><p><strong>Thank you.</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>NOTE: You can only nominate right now if you are NOT in the Committee.</em></strong></p> Fri, 29 Aug 2008 23:04:33 GMT http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/240935 DetroitFan* BS: Just Verlander Your Next Fannation Hall Of Famer Is... http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/233935 <p>Well, the time has come for the next HOF Nominee to be in the Hall Of Fame. Sadly, we had a low number of votes total. We had 22 votes. Not even everyone on the ballot voted this time around. However, let&#39;s get right to it. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here are the top 3 Vote Receivers:</p><p>G.O.A.T.<br />Wallace<br />Porkins</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And the Winner is...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>G.O.A.T.!!!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br />Here is how the voting went down:</p><p>G.O.A.T. - 13<br />Porkins - 12<br />Wallace - 8<br />hiya - 6<br />Ghosthunter - 4</p><p>Total # of Voters - 22</p><p><br />Well, there you have it everyone.

This is the last time people are going to be inducted into the Hall Of Fame this way. Then in a few weeks to a month we are going to try it the new way. </p><p>So I want this ballot to get the MOST votes of any ballot we have ever gotten to send this way of voting out with a Bang. </p><p>Here are the rules:</p><p>&gt; You have to select 1 or more but no more than 4. <br />&gt; If you vote for yourself, you must vote for someone else on the ballot.<br />&gt; No bashing people in your votes. <br />&gt; No advertising this or campaigning other people. </p><p>We have no set time limit to vote on this Ballot. We want as many votes possible on it, so tell your friends and everyone to come vote and make this have the most votes out of any ballot we ever had!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;<img src="http://img.fannation.com/upload/group_preference/image/154/86/full/hallOfFame_1_.jpg" height="150" alt="Halloffame_1_" width="150" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So Vote and have a Good Day everyone!</p><p>&nbsp;</p> Sun, 10 Aug 2008 01:58:51 GMT http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/228877 DetroitFan* BS: Just Verlander Complete HOF Change, Brand New! http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/224573 <p>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. </p><p>We don&#39;t think the nominees are the biggest problem. The main problem is biased voting, so here is what we propose to fix it all. </p><p>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. </p><p>2nd: We are dropping ALL requirements completely. Everyone needs a fair chance. </p><p>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&#39;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. </p><p>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). </p><p>5th: More than one person is eligible to be in the Hall Of Fame at a time. This needs to be fair to everyone. </p><p>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. </p><p>Now here is a recap:</p><p>- Get 20 People in a Private Group To Discuss Nominees<br />- Requirements are gone<br />- 10 People On Each Ballot<br />- Rating Scale Used For Voting (8 or Up to Get In)<br />- Announcement Likely to have More Than 1 Person<br />- More than one person can get in the Hall at one time. <br />- Time Difference May Change, Right Now, 2 Months</p><p>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...</p><p>Well, this is what we want to try out, what do all of you think of the newest idea?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://img.fannation.com/upload/group_preference/image/154/86/full/hallOfFame_1_.jpg" height="150" alt="Halloffame_1_" width="150" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Be heard, and thanks everyone. </p><p>Have a nice day.&nbsp;</p> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 20:00:42 GMT http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/224573 DetroitFan* BS: Just Verlander New HOF Nomination Idea http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/224548 <p>Hello everyone and the voters of the Fannation Hall Of Fame. I thank you for your voting, cooperation and anything else that it takes to be at this stage and keep the Hall of fame running at a good pace.</p><p>However, recently we have encountered some problems with the nominations. I saw <strong><em>Super Squirrel&#39;s rant</em></strong> about this too, so don&#39;t think I ignored it because it ties in with this. People are using the requirements to their advantage, and I think this needs to be stopped, and let in the people that we truly think deserve to be there. </p><p>So, I have a new proposition for all of you. My idea is that we <strong>dump the requirements.</strong> Then I find my own list of deserving candidates to be on the HOF. After that, I have one or two subjective people to look over the list, nit-pick it and what-not. Then we have a valid 10 Person list of people for the nomination.</p><p>Next, you as the voters would elect either 4 or 5 people off of the list of the 10 nominees that the 2 or 3 of us came up with. This would eliminate bad nominees and allow us to take time and reach back as to who really deserves to get in the Hall Of Fame. Because right now, some people have just been forgotten. </p><p>That is the idea I propose for now. We can either give that a shot at the next nomination, or we could keep it the same way we have been and have people call the HOF a joke some more. We don&#39;t want this to fall apart now, do we? This is a fun group it&#39;s a goal for some people here. </p><p>Thanks for reading, and tell me if this is a good idea or a bad idea and a reason why if you need or want to give one. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://img.fannation.com/upload/group_preference/image/154/86/full/hallOfFame_1_.jpg" height="150" alt="Halloffame_1_" width="150" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="/users/view_user_profile/25941"></a></p><p>Have a Good day, people!</p> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 15:18:24 GMT http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/224548 DetroitFan* BS: Just Verlander A HOF Nomination Tie (We Need To Break It) http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/224375 <p>The tie is between the following nominees:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Hiya </strong></p><p><strong>Hemo</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Both of these had 13 overall votes each to&nbsp;be on the primary ballot. </p><p>Now everyone needs to vote on who they would prefer to have on this blog.
