Forum:Hurricane Hall of Fame/Atlantic 2018

As far as I know, none of the above storms were inducted in the Hall of Fame yet, and can be for this year, except for Nate and Otto. Nate and Otto are not yet eligible due to the "two-seasons" rule from Eric's rules above, since he strongly opposed recentism, and they will be eligible by the end of the 2019 season. Harvey, Irma, Maria, and Matthew are excluded from that rule since they caused enough damage (10 billion) to qualify for automatic induction, but we're going to have a vote regardless. Like I mentioned before, if you guys can find some other storms that aren't mentioned above that can qualify for their impacts, feel free to add them.

Anyways, here's what I'm thinking: Eric said a while ago that before 2007, the hall of fame used to be less organized, with a lot of storms being inducted in each year, but we won't induct every notable storm in this year at once, we'll get them in a few at a time. So I'm thinking we should do the 10-5-3 rule he mentioned a while ago (for the Atlantic). How that works is, we each vote (sign) for 10 storms out of the list above, and after a week or two (with enough users weighing in) we'll list the 10 storms that received the most votes, and pick 5 candidates out of those 10 storms for induction. Storms that don't make those 5 votes will not be inducted into the hall of fame that year and will be eligible for next year instead. Then, we can each individually pick 3 of those storms to win the "bronze, silver, and gold cups" for our 3 personal most notable storms of those 5 inductees. Those 3 storms don't have to be the same between users. If there is a tie between two or more storms for 10th or 5th place in the nomination or induction processes, we'll have another, separate vote between those two or more storms that are tied, and try to narrow it down for the nominees and inductees.

Well, that's it for now. Comment below if you have any suggestions. Once we get everyone's input (from about 6-8 other users or so), we'll start listing storms that got the most votes and go to the nominations and inductions.

2018 Atlantic Hall of Fame Nominees
We need 10 for the nomination process to begin with our 5 inductions, but unfortunately we have a 5-way tie at 2 votes. So to narrow this down, as I mentioned above, we'll list those 5 storms, and we each pick 3 of these 5. The 3 that get the most votes will get to nomination. Those that don't, will be eligible for next year. Hmm...still doesn't look like we got 10 yet, we got 3 votes each for Alicia and Luis, so they'll make it, but Lenny and Irene are still tied for 2. So we'll go to one more tiebreaker round before voting on nominees; let's pick one between Lenny and Irene, and the storm with more votes will make it to the ten nominees this year (as a side note, I've crossed out Edouard '96 for future elections; Rara, he wasn't particularly notable, either trivially or by terms of impacts. A storm like Edouard could belong in the "favorite storms" forum, but not here).

 * Alright then mate, if you say so... (cuddles Edouard) I get what you mean anyway as he was too nice of a storm anyway... hardly any impact whatsoever... I did root for Louis however. §ÖñÖ ÇHÌ ñÖ §ÄÐÄMÈ JÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖJÖ 04:40, June 20, 2018 (UTC)

Alright, we'll go with Lenny. I personally wanted Irene for her higher impacts, but we can always nominate her next year. Anyways, with that now out of the way, the ten Atlantic nominees for the 2018 Hall of Fame are below. Like I said above, we now each pick 5 of these, and the 5 storms that get the most votes will be the hall of famers for 2018. We'll go to another tiebreaker round if two or more are tied for 5th most votes. Ryan1000 03:40, June 21, 2018 (UTC)

2018 Atlantic Hall of Fame Inductees
Alright, we got down to our 5 Atlantic Inductions for 2018! Here's the 5 storms that got the most votes from above: As for my top 3 among these 5, I'll go with: I know some people might place Harvey above Maria, but according to some sources, it's very possible that several hundred or even thousands of people were kiled during the aftermath of Maria due to the poor relief for the storm in Puerto Rico, but the death toll had stopped being counted to avoid political collapse on the island. So I'd personally put her second. Ryan1000 23:58, June 22, 2018 (UTC)
