Ted Z. for asking the most probing 206 questions, resulting in some fascinating 'discoveries'

Jon C. for illuminating the wonderful world of cigarette packs as a
critical adjunct to vintage baseball card studies

best,
barry

My vote is Ted Z also. He takes the time explaining something or another at the Ft. Washington shows. Plus, he's one hell of a nice guy.

Leon - You should have an Net54 VBC HOF award ceremony at the Net54 dinner just like PSA has a PSA HOF award ceremony at their annual PSA luncheon.

ted z is without a doubt at the top, but there is a bunch of guy's and gal's that are on here everyday contributing good posts. all of these "experts" add a great read for me and info i otherwise wouldnt get anywhere else, thanks to ted z - and all regular poster's.

The Ted Z votes are well deserved but I think FKW should get some recognition. He shares a lot of knowledge that potentially keeps board members from making costly mistakes.

Ted, certainly, FKW for sure. Rob, Rhett, even the boss. And many, many more.

It would be real hard to pick just one as each has their own area of expertise to share.

There should be a Net 54 HOF. I say, beginning next year, we start the HOF voting and I'll volunteer to keep track

Is this the same award Peter Chao won a few quarters ago?

Wes his awards were stripped when he was exiled, like an Olympic athlete caught doing drugs.

The prize must be Leon's quarter!! The one that is usually in his scans of his cards. My recollection is that it is a Bicentennial quarter. That has to be the prize... maybe we get it mounted onto a trophy.

And next quarter I'll vote for fkw... But Ted first, this quarter.

Could we make that a dime? I had to break the quarter I previously used in the scans in order to buy something....

Unbelievable site. I spend more time here than I should.

Posted By: Darren

Who is this founder of this sight? Good question.

I do feel on card education Ted Z. is king, but for operational issues props go to the moderator dude....Leon.

Thanks Leon, for your contributions in keeping this thing rollin'. Sure it's about cardboard and stuff, but to me it's so much more than that. I visit the site to "reset" myself between patients. It's amazing the clarity I find by lurking/responding here.

Thank you.

all the best,

Ted Z. is fantastic and I would also nominate!

When inducted, I want a dual HOF auto plaque card of Ted Z. & Jim C.

Posted By: DD

If you use the royal "we", are you still eligible for this award?

I nominate Barry Sloate; one of the most respected auction houses, as well as the only one who is willing to contribute on a frequent basis.

I vote for Leon as having the best post in the first quarter of this thread. Winning this vote is the equivalent of going into the Hall as a sportscaster.

The founder of the site is Elliot who still posts from time to time but now is mainly just one of those creepy lurkers you read about. He started this site when the fullcount board was taken down and ran it thru the lean years building it up before handing it off to some guy from Boston who moved to the west coast. If for some reason we had a self-serving HOF for people who spend too much time on the internet,Elliot has to be the Alexander Joy Cartwright(I think he's prefer to be likened to Henry Chadwick more but TS, Elliot) of the prestigious net54 Hall of Fame otherwise it will be no better than the current Hall of Fame which ignores so many of the 19th century people we cherish so much

"Creepy Lurker".....thanks John
I guess it is kind of true, as I read the board several times a day, but not every thread like I used to when I was moderator.
Also, Bill Cornell should be recognized by name for having taken over for me as moderator.

Elliot doesn't manually read the board anymore, he just has a computer program that rings a bill whenever his name is mentioned. If you want to have fun with him, type in Elliot a bunch of times at 3am Ontario time.

This board was founded by a Canadian, which will explain to the newcomers why the mascot is a mountie. I said that if the mascot had to be Canadian it should at least be Linda Evangelista, but Elliot said that name was too long for the T-shirts.
