Here's an idea... Why don't we create a GUU Ring of Honor where we vote on and induct three members a year? This would honor those who are the best of the best when it comes to collecting and educating others about our great hobby.

My suggestion would be that anyone who has been a member here for at least one year has the ability to nominate five people. Upon the closing date, the top five or six names out of everyone nominated would be the finalists. From there, all forum members get to vote for their three choices.

My five nominees would be:

Dave Miedema -- a pioneer authenticator and journalist in the GU hobby who has educated collectors for over 30 years

Eric Stangel -- created of our GU Forum

Lon Lewis -- a true legend with the knowledge of game used items and their restoration

"Both-Teams-Played-Hard" -- has educated us over the years and provided invaluable tagging primers among other things

"Mulligans" -- has educated us over the years and has done much to expose our GU hobby to the masses, both on the web and on television
