| Hall of Fame | |

EDIT: This old thread was bumped so I assume someone at least is interested in the idea. In short (see below) the idea is to give everyone in the Hall of Fame a permanent comment on their profile, so everyone will know who they were and what they did to get in the Hall of Fame, and a statue in the map. I'd like to add something to this. With the new map released, the academy got itself a lovely garden with Vladarion's Memorial shrine in it. I say we use the extra space in that garden for more plaques or statues for the people in the Hall of Fame, I think it would create a very nice and solemn atmosphere in that particular part of the map. I have mailed the original idea to the council, but the council hasn't done anything with it yet. Let's see what the students think of this new concept. ORIGINAL: ___________ Dear JACs, JAKs, JATs, and fellow students In the light of the recent departures of many of our friends, the hall of fame has grown and is even larger than the list of JAKs and JATs. A lot of people will not remember all of them, and since it's a hall of fame, this is wrong. I suggest everyone in the hall of fame get's a permanent comment his profile providing us with the history of that person, ergo: his story. People in the hall of fame deserve to be remembered. Furthermore, I'd like to see a real hall of fame in the next Academy Map. A line of statues, in a long corridor, or spread throughout the map with their names on a sign. That way, we'll always remember them and they will always be with us. What do you think?

newtius that idea has been given before, and its not doable. It sucks to have to update the map every time som1 leaves. Besides, statues like that lag people  . _______________ -Retired april the 19th 2004 |

Halendor and I will try to manage this idea, and with permission of the council bring it to life. _______________ Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam |

Oh and I agree that we should have a seperate "Hall of Fame" page. So basically, we 'want' three things: - statues / plaques in the academy map - permanent comment on profile HoF-er explaining why he is in the HoF - seperate HoF page on the site Who is going to e-mail the council? |

Exactly my idea, though I think the statues are doable. Virtue had some ideas on this I believe. To get this of the ground we must have a reaction from the council... _______________ Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam |

Statues bad. Plaques good. If Vladarion deserves a memorial, the other Hall-of-Famers (Hoffer  ) deserve at a plaque in my opinion And I think we should form a committee or something who appoints people (who knew the Hoffer wel), and they can write the permanent post, which tell the story of the Hall-of-Famer. |

I reckon a seperate page or soemthing, cos eventually (and I do eventually not right now) the hall of fame list will be extremely large. Therefore I say have its own page, just to unclutter the 'about us' page. Statues in maps, I'm a big fan of all that but you know what I (and some other people) are like with things which don't actually serve a purpose in the gameplay map. Another thing to consider is that as more people are added the map will need to be updated.... _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

*bump* So far, only Vladarion has a few permanent comments explaining why he is in the hall of fame. What about the rest of them? |

Well, we agreed that all HoFers will get a permanent comment on their profile stating who they were and what they did for the acadeny, so we can remember them. But these permanent comments do not write themselves. _______________ Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam |

Thanks everyone, now get yourself on that about us page and see if you know anyone in the HoF good enough to write his permanent comment. _______________ Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam |

Now everyone who thinks he knows someone in the hall of fame well enough to write his permanent comment, please say so here. Remember, we need to know what kind of person he/she was, what he/she meant to the academy and why he is in the hall of fame. _______________ Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam |

I totally support this idea _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website! Quote: I try to have fun with my friends and try to make a difference as best I can. What does making a difference mean? Well, it can be as simple as saying hello, answering a question that seems obvious or heck, just talking. -- Vladarion

I don't think a Hall of Shame would be an honourable idea. Somehow, it does not fit in the Academy. _______________ Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam |

So I guess the permanent comment on the HoF profiles is accepted? What we need now is people to come forward and write those. People who knew HoFs well. Of course, it's also needed to state properly on the site when someone is added to the HoF. Now about the statues, as I see it: A long corridor (not an extra , just one that has a purpose, like one connecting to important rooms) with in the walls at equal distances statues in niches. Me and Freedon made something like that in a map and special lights give it a very cool effect. About the downloading, I suppose the map will be edited let's say every three months. If there are any new HoFs than they are added to the statues. _______________ Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam |

This is a classic idea.  On another note, how about every month or 2 there is a new person added, and like when we were electing our Chancellor (c1) use the email thingy? _______________ I was a child when I joined the JA...scary. |
