It's just debatable whether some of those people should be the first all time GTM hall of fame members.

Based on this, I'm just wondering if it's because a lot of current member aren't actually aware of the early days of GTM.

I know for a fact that having given some retrospective thought, I didn't vote for a good 4 or 5 members who are probably more deserving that the ones I voted for.

Maybe we should do Historic Hall of Fame and Modern Hall of Fame. Members that have been here since 2007 are Eligible to the Historic Hall, any who came afterwards for Modern.

WTF is a modern hall of fame?

It will be people who deserve to be in it for what they are doing today, and not what they have done in the distant past.

Halls of fame are about the past. If you want something current, bi-monthly rankings in various fields would be better and voting would be kept current.

I do hope you have just been lazy with the OP. The number of votes hasn't changed much.

Voting us officially closed but I likely won't be able to look at votes for the next 10 hours or so, so some leeway if you still wanted to submit. I'll post here when I'm tallying votes to close the unofficial extension.
