I'm slightly disappointed that my WWF 1993-1994 diary hasn't been considered. I feel like it's been my best work, ever. Aren't you still working on that, though? I'm not a fan of putting current diaries into the hall of fame, but I agree, your WWF diary definitely should be considered. I am. But, I'm fairly certain of the selections picked last time, most of them were currently running on the board. Plus, WWF 1993 onward is probably going to be my last diary, and if I were to keep it going for years and years, it would never get in because of that. Unless, I retired it, got into the HOF and went back to it... don't see how it matters, really. |

I don't think putting in a diary that is currently running is a problem. It has happened many times before. Speaking from personal experience SNW went in and thats never really gone inactive.
I don't know what to do in terms of voting for Hall of Fame writers since its abit cruel to vote on people and someone get left out. If we could just all agree on a few names (which seems to be happening) then I feel that would be the best way.

Bob's WWF diary is very impressive, has a lot of detail. I would personally put that in the Hall of Fame. His diaries are kind of inspiration to help writer's block.

Diaries, I'd put in Bob's 1993 and Fury's 1984.

I think as long as it's had a good stay on the board and a good number of shows it should be eligible. I'm Jim Cornette and that's my opinion. |

My 1998 was put in and it was only a few months old (both in diary and in real life), Bob's should go in.

Oh, and it means a lot. If you don't mind, I'd like to return the traditional HOF writer speech streak. It'll be sent to the Blue Dragon tomorrow.

I don't want to sound like a dick but we haven't deffinatley decided on who's in yet. It seems as if your deff going in but I'd rather you wait until we decide all the names who go in first. Hope thats ok. Plus we haven't really talked about the HOF stuff yet. I'm leaning towards what was suggested earlier. But I think we need to talk about the format of the HOF more. I just don't want you taking your time writing a speech when it may not be used. |

What about voting by the board? Whatever is nominated is up there, and only X amount can be voted by each individual. Everyone sends votes in to Senor Red Dragon, and whichever diaries get more than X percentage of the vote is in. Same with the writers as well.

So it looks like DTP's a definite and some combination of Hammers, Rated R, Jord and KvE, I'm happy with that for writers.
As for diaries Bob's 93 is one of my favourite diaries ever and should definitely go in, I also think KvE's Gattaca should be in there. As for my 84 Hammers, I expect it'll go in eventually I have Wrestlemania I and II as potential end dates with plans for both of them, but for now it's too short.
Actually a diary of mine I really enjoyed and feel could probably go in was my 2001 diary. I think the Tough Enough idea was one of my best ever and wish I would've played that one out.

Was Superstars long enough? I enjoyed Superstars so much more than GATTACA: PROJECT.

I think the problem is that we seem to be limiting what can go in. I mean that wouldn't usually be a problem in any other hall of fame, but here it means that a lot of diaries won't go in because people have their favorites and they will vote for that whether the others deserve to go in or not. Now as I said, that wouldn't be a problem in a sporting hall of fame because there's always next year, but around by next year there will have been dozens upon dozens of new diaries and all the current ones will be forgotten, meaning perfectly deserving entries would never go in.
In the interest of fairness I say make a list of all the nominated diaries and writers, and let people vote solely on whether EACH diary and writer deserves to go in. That way nothing deserving misses it's chance because it's got particularly tough competition.

That way nothing deserving misses it's chance because it's got particularly tough competition. I agree with that and was prob going to do that barring any suggested idea. The only thing I dislike about this is the HOF writers bit. I feel its a bit cruel to those who lose voting and don't go in. If we can all agree on a few people to go in then we put them in, no voting required. If anyone got any better ideas just say. I think a problem with this thread is that we got so much to do. Nominating diaries, nominating writers, re-formating. It might be a better idea to focus on one bit at a time. Thoughts? |

Red Dragon for Hall of Fame! I don't think I've done enougth really when I look at guys like Hammers, Rated R, DTP and Jord. Who all deserve to go in before me. However, thinking of MOD's/Former MOD's shouldn't Matt Original go in? |

MattyO sure came up with some cool new concepts for us.
