THL Hall of Fame: Hero Series (3rd Class)

*This was the class of August 2020*
​
The following process and criteria was used to identify HoF Inductees:
To be considered eligible, one must have participated for at least 5 seasons in Legacy Series as either a player, a captain, or a consistent contributor to THL operations or content.

A selection committee of 9 community members was formed, and the community as a whole submitted nominations to be considered. Guidelines for selection include but are not limited to:

• A distinguished record of competitive achievement during Series play, with consideration given to win/loss record, game record, postseason play, All Star selections, and season awards earned. Consideration was also given to integrity, sportsmanship, and character.
• A distinguished record of competitive team achievement as a captain during Series play, with consideration given to win/loss record, number of playoff appearances, division titles won, championships won, and captain awards earned. Consideration was again also given to integrity, sportsmanship, and character.
• Exceptional contributions that have furthered the growth, reputation, and character of the organization, in categories such as administration, content creation, and casting.

Bearing that in mind, the time has come to present to you our fourth class of Legacy Series Inductees:

Players:

the_bigted
(for hero)
The_bigted and THL’s hero series have been almost synonymous for nearly his entire THL career. Ted burst onto the scene in season 7, racing to a rookie of the season and MVP award. Not satisfied with these accolades, he followed up with more strong performances and raised the series championship in season 9 with his teammates from The Cult. Ted has maintained a 59.32% winrate over his 6 seasons in the hero series, no surprise given his consistent dedication. His outstanding play alongside his efforts in content production for hero have given him the nickname “Unofficial Hero Series Commissioner.” True to form, the_bigted continues to set the pace for everyone else, as he is only the second person to be inducted into the hero series hall of fame as a player. With no further ado, it is my absolute pleasure to officially welcome the unofficial hero commissioner into the Hall of Fame.
Congratulations again, the_bigted! We are all fortunate to know you and have you continuing to make THL such an amazing place!

Captains:

Yellowdart
(for hero)
As the first captain inducted into the Hero series Hall of Fame, I can't think of a more deserving person than Yellowdart.  Not only is he the longest tenured captain with 9 full seasons leading Dad Legend, the team win rate of 55% is higher than any other captain with at least 4 seasons on record.  That level of consistent performance is incredible, and only begins to tell the story of Yellowdart's value as a captain. 

Dart is an outgoing, down-to-earth leader that focuses on making sure everyone on his team is comfortable and prepared.  He empowers his players to make thoughtful decisions and encourages teamwork and collaboration.  His friendly demeanor underlies his dedication to his teammates, always having their back when needed and quickly resolving any issues without alienating anyone involved.  His emphasis on positive thinking and trusting his team is readily apparent and greatly appreciated by everyone who's played for him. 

After Dad Legend captured their first THL championship in season 11, it was only a matter of time before the committee gave an all-bulldog vote to Yellowdart, confirming what all of his players already knew, that he is a true Hall of Famer.(edited)
