Sometimes you have to take a step back, not look at things with venom, and ask yourself, "IMPACT?"

There are so many guys who should and will be HOF'ers and their accomplishments in the game need to not go un-noticed. They need to not have been taken for granted.

I look at LONGEVITY, for in the words of MLK, "Longevity has its place".
You are definitely not wrong on SweetKA. Guys don't know how he's been on the other end of trying to bring the game to the Internet with me. He's made major contributions so you are definitely right on him too.

Something tells me he will get his day. But guys like Steve will be overlooked because they have not won a championship on the board. That's nice, to win on the board game, but the IMPACT on the game is much more than winning a game.

I agree with all of those guys ,they all have contributed to the game BIG TIME !
I would also put Dewayne Jennings name out there . Figures, chinstraps, facemasks, knee braces . He brought the detail of the war gaming figures and realism to our Hobby. I think he should be on a short list.
