Greetings fellow nerds!

Today, the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November is election day here in the US. I'm not looking to get political here in the gameplay thread, but today has me thinking about voting, and that leads me to one of the yearly highlights: the annual Star Trek CCG 2nd Edition Hall of Fame vote!

This year, we're moving the timeline a bit. The nomination window for the 2020 class will occur in January 2020, with voting in February.

Each community member will be allowed to nominate 3 cards to be inducted. In order to be eligible, the card must have been around for 10 years. That means that all cards made in 2009 and previous years remain eligible, and joining them this year are all of the cards from the Peak Performance and Infinite Diversity sets.

The current Hall of Fame inductees are here.

Also here are last year's Nomination, voting and results discussion threads.

Now's your chance to start thinking about, and advocating for (or against) your favorite cards - or even the cards you just love to hate! Each person's nominations - and the reasons for those nominations - are theirs alone. And it's equal opportunity - convince 65% of the voters that your nominees deserve to be voted in, and they are!

Will this be the year that the community takes its revenge against the brokenness that is Peak Performance? Will any of the bubble cards from last year's class get over the hump this time around?

We'll find out come January, but it's never too early to think about which cards are worthy of nomination and trying to build the consensus to get them into the Hall.

Let the discussion begin!

All of the cermoney cards ie anything with ritual. I feel they are overused and basically an auto-include

Despite being a great personnel, I think I'd probably nominate Decker as it makes me feel icky to even see his card in play.

So many more I wish I could nominate... also, Surprise Party's day cannot come fast enough.

I wouldn't waste a nomination on Surprise Party, as it's no longer a must include.

Just so we're clear, this is NOT the nomination thread. That's coming later.

If you have a full-on hate list, post it! No 3-card limit in this discussion!

And yes, Surprise Party will be eligible for the 2021 class. Just one more year!

As literally a copy of that set was made, how would using A5A (or any other card) from set 37 work? That card isn't eligible to be in the hall yet. Just curious.

There's already an example of this - (At What Cost? - 37 V 10). And as that version says it's in not usable in HoF format, it looks like that applies to all versions of AWC?.

HoFing A5A would be no different.
