Alright, so it's time to do the nominations for this year's Hall of Fame class! This will be open for about 3 and a half weeks, ending at 11:59 PM February 4th.
The way it works is you can nominate exactly 5 people for induction into the Hall of Fame. The current members of the HoF will then vote on the nominees. Post all nominations in this thread.
The top 3 nominees (people who got the most nominations) will get 1 free "community vote" during the voting process.
Threads are up at both Gamers and Bloomilk; please only post your nomination in one of the two places, not both. Remember that you should nominate exactly 5 people, no more, no less.

Wow I get to see this process from the other side this year.
Nominations:
1. Jonathan Gillies aka General Grievous. He is my #1 pick for the nominations this year. He's always actively involved on the Bloomilk boards, is the voice of reason, is a perennial Canadian powerhouse in games, and is assisting in Epic IV.
2. Darth Rattlehead. #2 Pick based on his app creation
3 and 4 are equally ranked for me; Jak and Juiceman Jak for his generous heart in making and donating customs, and hosting Frosty Con, Juice for being a great guy to play against, and a great contributor to the game.
5. He's gonna kick and scream because he doesn't want people to pick him, but it's gotta go to Bronson McNellis aka Ultrastar. He's a designer and an all around great player.

Jak - Old is as old does - and an interesting squad builder (I like that)
Paul Moore - You take a trip all the way from New Zealand to the U.S., and time it at GenCon specifically-->> YOU ARE IN! Oh yes, also played well which is especially satisfying
Bronson - Even in up and down times, headed an active playgroup in the South and traveled to events in the North more than a few times, oh yeah a good player to boot.
kobayashimaru - Prolific poster and ALWAYS something nice and/or encouraging to say in the customs area...a little encouragement goes a looooonnnng way!
Greg Hollis (gholli69) - Joined the game well past when WOTC stopped supporting it and has played ever since for at least 5 years. Travels and plays in Regionals and GenCon and has his son Dillon playing in Regionals as well. Really like that he embraced a game that is community-driven...posts on Bloomilk often to boot.

As always, too many to narrow down to 5, but here's my nominations:
Bronson "Ultrastar" - contributed so much to the community over the years, and now is an official designer. I've always thought being a designer should gain automatic entrance into the Hall of Fame ( and I said this before I was a designer, lol).
Paul Moore - awesome player, won (at least one) Major in New Zealand, flew over 8000 miles to attend GenCon, then placed in the top 4. Super awesome guy to top it off
Darth Rattlehead - micron and skirmish tracker! Plus he's coming to GenCon (from New Zealand) next summer with his son.
Juiceman Joe - 2 GenCon top 8s, awesome dude, helps keep Jak in check (lol)
Jak - Been playing minis since the start, hosted several tournaments at his place and put people up for the weekend, very generous and his community donations and great customs. Not to mention the Gen Con top 8
