2040 Hall of Fame Ballot, Rules, and Voting Chatter

[RonCo]

As always PLEASE SEND YES VOTES to Matt.

Effective immediately, Hall of Fame voting is open. The process will proceed as follows:

1) Players eligible for inclusion this year are listed below. (Note: the "Veterans Committee" may add up to two additional nominees per year).
2) Full conversations about each player can be found in that player's "Discussion Thread" elsewhere on the forum.

3) Each BBA GM is expected to copy the ballot, and indicate which of those players they would vote in. This is a straight yes/no vote for each candidate. There is no limit to the number of candidates you can vote for.
4) That ballot will be PMed (or emailed) to the commissioner (recte44) prior to Spring Training Sim #1.
5) The commissioner will compile the votes, and release final results (preferably in the Media Guide)
6) Any candidate who received 75% or more of cast votes will be inducted.
7) Any candidate who receives 10% or less of cast votes will be permanently removed from ballot
8) Any candidate who is not inducted after being on the ballot for 7 years will be permanently removed.

Here is a link to the ballot:

So it says, in item 3) at the top post, that this is for BBA GMS... Thus, the UMEBA GMs aren't supposed to vote for these, right?
