May all the nominees be in the hall of fame! You all are deserving of it!
Because you're good at video games!


If you participate consistently for a couple of seasons,I am confident that you will be enshrined.
If Miss Clawful, who was 50 times better than me wasn't nominated, that ain't going to happen.  

 

Yes she was an extremely good gamer but I'd say that you are at the very least equally as skilled as her. Some of the things you have done gaming wise are phenomenal. Beating Ikari Warriors and Ghosts N Goblins to name a couple.
 

She no-deathed Adventure Island.

Completing that game AT ALL is incredibly difficult.

I've never even beaten that game. I don't like it though so I never have really tried.

Probably not as the contests have often used WWE references and whatnot.

It wasn't easy Guts.
There was lots of back and forth... and math.

Whittling it down to 6 was hard enough.
Trying to omit some of the best players in history was nearly impossible.

There was also talk about just inducting all of you guys.
In the end though, the decision was to elect 4.

I'm sure this won't be the last time you or arnpoly will be featured as a finalist.

Wow, I'm honored! Congratulations to Bimmy, Tom and guillavoie as well! I was excited just to be a finalist, but to be named a Hall of Famer along with those guys is amazing! Thanks to Santa for doing this and everyone else that was involved. This was a great week and I can't wait to be a part of it next year!

Thank you to Santa and everyone involved in this as well as to everyone that enjoyed the show. I'm sure that some of you guys that followed this will be in the centerfold one day.

Congrats to all the inductees, it is an honor to be part of this 1st class along with you guys, and a special thanks to gutsman004 and arnpoly for being great nominees and for the entertainment you gave us all this week. Your turns are coming soon enough

It's going to be scorched earth this week! Having the fewest wins among the finalists really hurt my chances. Time to start playing harder so I can accrue more wins!

Self analyzing here,but I think my lack of wins killed my chances. And I'm not sure how much me and Arnpoly being active hurt our chances. I don't believe that you should have to be retired to get in as that curtails participation and I think everyone would agree that more participation is better.

I think (at least for some) being active was actually something that HELPED your and arnpoly's case.
Other contestants would LOVE to take a shot at a Hall of Famer.

Active Hall of Famers would be a boon for the contests.
That was kind of an aside though.

Active/retirement is not part of the process this year, but that might change for next year.

I just wouldn't want to retire just for the sake of getting in. It's not like sports where you get to a point where you have to retire because you physically can't do it. Plus I just like playing in these contests...they are fun and I like competing against everyone.

Congratulations to all the inductees!
It is quite the worthy Hall of Fame class for 2017.  

And here's for Guts and Arnpoly being immortalized on the Hall of Fame in 2018!

Good show, guys. I would drink to this, but it is 6:40 am.

If I'm announced as an inductee at 10:00, I'm not celebrating until 12:01 AM.  

If you're inducted, it is a good sign telling us that all this was indeed just a big joke (kidding man!).




I still checked the thread again as soon as I woke up this morning to make sure that I really got inducted just in case.

Thanks buddy! I thought you had as good of a chance at getting in this year as I did, so I'm sure that you'll be at the top of the list for next year.

It is Tecmo Super Bowl week, so I guess it's possible!

Congrats to all the inductees, that's one hell of a HoF class. I'm sure guts and arnpoly will be considered at the very least for 2018.

Also, great job Santa and all involved on all the work you put in this week. The interviews were great and gave us more insight into the players we love to compete against and respect plus this felt like the big deal and honor that it should be.

Once again congrats to all!
