I noticed taht as well!  Paul, I would love to help if you need it in typing info out, etc.....let me know as I think an FWL HOF is a great idea!

Maybe we need to voting for any player that has retired 3 seasons ago or longer...is that too hard to figure?

Thanks!

Yeah well i havent touched the HOF for a long long time !  The computer actually picks players to go into the HOF but some of its suggestions are ridiculous.

Then again its difficult not to pick say DT Rollin Putzier ( http://www.fwl.org.uk/alltime.htm#rputzier ) who because he was a veteran in the first season in the FWL only played one year.  That year he had 19 sacks !  Now that we're in Season 17 theres a lot of players who have now played their whole career in the FWL and now have retired.

But again say a player was in his 7th year in Season 1 and retired after Season 5 (his 11th year) , he only played 5 seasons in the FWL and might have played well but looking at the career stats he wont really show.

We need an initial list of players who have retired (even if they played 4 seasons originally) and then from then on any retired players we can add to it.

If someone wants to do something i'll quite happily put it onto the site, eg

Class of Season 1

Have names of players who retired after Season 1

Have their stats for Season 1, a bit about the player

do that 16 times so the last one is..

Class of Season 16

Lots of names of players who retired and their stats/stories etc

Obviously we pick the best of the best.

OR write down all the retired players, do a poll and put in 3 a season so as we're in Season 17 (16 complete seasons x 3 = 48) there should be 48 in already.  At the end of this season you can vote for another 3 players to go in.

In the NFL i think each player has to be retired is it 4 or 5 years ?  To make things easier i would just let any retired player have a chance to go in the FWL hall of fame.

But if anyone wants to start anything i would be quite happy to put it on the site.

Be nice to click on 'Hall of Fame' then a popup window comes on with the player/player stats/info and you press forward/back to go through all the players or something

Also another job for someone !

If you click on the pulldown menu on the left hand side and choose either season 1 2 or 3 theres a 'review of the season'...

eg

http://www.fwl.org.uk/revseason3.htm

Would LOVE to have that for every season.

Basically each one has obviously a review of the season and what roughly happened in each division

Playoff review, FWL Bowl review

The top players statistically of that year, comments about the MVP and GM

Be great to have it for each season !  Done seasons 1-3 already

Paul I will do both if you like, Will take me a bit of time, but a have quite a bit at the moment I will start with the review of the year and then e-mail it to you is that OK ? You will have to let me know how you would like it written Ie Biggest trades review of each Division, best games in each division ect Andrews work with preveous seasons will make it alot easyer though

[Marco_Frankfurt]

Actually we allready had a first HOF election on this forum way back

Please look at:

http://fwl.pocketplane.net/index.php?topic=44.0

Its on page 16 or 17 in the articles.

I think back then they were obvious picks as tehy all are all time stars
maybe we can build on that.

Just a little thought

Thanks !

Basically have a look at the ones i've done for Season 1,2 and 3 and do something similar and about the same size.  Look at the divisions, do a small story about each division , who won, who played well etc and then email it to me

If you can keep the same format it'll be great, eg write down the leaders of those stats (passing, receptions, rushing, sacks etc) and follow the same format it'll be excellent
