I like the idea. There's another website that maintains a "Hall of Merit" and I like their approach. They mimic what the Hall of Fame did. In their first vote, only players who were eligible in 1936 are eligible. Then, in their second vote, only players who were eligible in 1937 are eligible. That way the Hall of Fame fills up first with old timers, and only later with modern players. But the old timers continue to be eligible perpetually so they can be voted in with the modern players too. Also, Negro Leaguers are eligible starting in the 1936 election, as long as they were retired by that time. They don't have to wait for the 1971 election when the Hall opened its doors to Satchel Paige.
