Thanks for doing this, Brian - I am at 55

I'm at 91, as I have all the HOFers except Young (Cleveland), and Buck Jordan.

My brain is made of pun putty
 
Thanks for the participation and suggestions so far.

I am still at the slight adjustment and Tinker phase (Joe will be remain at the 1 point status, no Chance for him to Evers elevate up to the 3 point level). I am willing to shorten the Plank from 4 to 3 points in length. As a result, I would like to elicit suggestions on which card that is currently 3 points that would be the best candidate to be elevated to 4 points.

Also, I would be willing to drop the Stone down to the 1 point depth. What would your best candidate be to elevate from 1 point to 3 points? After your input on these potential slight adjustments I will set the point system into cement.

Hi Paul, I will have to check their site out for their ranking.

Thanks, Brian

Hi Brian, I guess you could say it's just another input to use. I'm not saying it's perfect, but I have had some input in making minor adjustments to it over the years.

I’d keep Stone up there and add Bemis, clement, o’connor, Seigle, Howell (wind-up) for 3 points each.
Sweeney to 5
Lower Plank to 3 points and Jackson to 20.
Total max of 260.
Just my perspective. Either way, fun set.

Outsider looking in, been there done it. I would lower the Cobb, it's not tough and raise the Stahl and Walsh a level.

Hope the thread generates more interest in the set.

Thanks for organizing. Put me down for a whopping 36

Pending any scoring changes, the re-ranking of Overall puts me at an even 100.

I like the weighting here more than SGC, although some are equivalent.
SGC weighs all HOFer at 3, and we know that Wallace, Bender, Bresnahan and Crawford are easily found...and not as key to set completion as some of the toughies weighted above.

Surely there are more e90-1 collectors out there?

E90-1
 
Hi Brian

Ty Cobb was printed in the 1st series (ca..1908). Cards in this series are quite plentiful. I think Joe Jackson was most likely printed in this 1st series, also.
Therefore, I think their #'s should be decreased.

And, Hugh Duffy and Tris Speaker are short-prints issued in the last series (circa..1910), and both their #s should be increased.

Anyhow, do I get any credit for my 1st set (120 cards) even though I sold it ?

I'm still finding cards in my current set. When I have gathered all of them, I will provide you a number for this 2nd set.
