I'd been playing with the idea of this for a few days.
On the one hand..................
An
award for being dead feels a bit, odd. Death isn't a contest so should there be a contest to get in?
I wouldn't like to be the one to tell someone their favourite artist doesn't get into our hall of rememberance for something as calculating as a "vote".
Pardon the pun, but I think there should be "heaven for everyone".
We've got the roon.
It's mlukfc, not a Russian gaulag (despite what some of our members might say
).
We can afford to be flexable.
On the other...............
If we admit everyone now, we would basically be waiting round to lose someone else before we could make another induction.
Although I said above there should be heaven for everyone, i'd like to see some kind of
standard maintained.
If someone is an admirer of an artist/writer/producer/musician/etc, I don't see a problem inducting them to a hall of rememberance, but I get the niggly feeling that some folks would send me PM's full of people who they've named just because they are dead. No matter if they have any personal interest in that person, and no matter how obscure they may be.
I kind of get the image of Wario looking through wikipedia to find out who's dead just to furnish me with a nice long list to pack the place out a bit
.
How to find a compromise?
As a footnote, I think this is the one category where people from the Meat Loaf world deserve their own place (i'm thinging of Wells Kelly and Steve Popovich here).
