Music Banter Hall Of Fame
Nominations Thread, PLEASE READ THIS FIRST!
An idea put forward by JayJamJah, the Hall of Fame will be an ongoing project that with time should honour the music artists that are loved by the collective members of MB.
How it works:
Each week an artist put forward by a member will be put up for a nomination in this thread with a poll. At the end of the week if the artist has received over 50% positive votes then they will be added onto a list at the end of this post and later be up for induction.
Artists who are nominated have to have a thread dedicated to them on these forums and have had their debut album released at least 10 years ago.
How to Nominate:
Any member with over 100 posts can nominate an artist which abide by the terms above.
To nominate an artist PM me saying what artist you want to nominate and add a case for why they should be added to the Hall of Fame. Then i'll post the case here and it will be decided on, if 2 members nominate the same artist i'll post both cases.
In the event of me receiving lots of nominations, please be patient for yours to be put up! (Well argued and thoughtful cases may be given priority
)
How to Vote:
Once you've voted say who you voted for and why. Please try to avoid one word answers. Especially if you're voting negatively, as of course we want to see both sides of the story. This is aiming to create discussion after all!
After the first 6 nominations have been declared then the first induction thread will be made to decide who goes through.
Now get nominating!
The first nominee will be put up for voting shortly.
