damee enters the Unofficial Hall of Fame!

Hello folks!

I'm proud to announce the creation of our our Unofficial Hall of Fame, in which one player will be added every month, elected by votes on the forum. Players who will join this list will be players who will have proven their outstanding skills in any manner. The organization of this Unofficial Hall of Fame is to be thanked to virtuoso107.

The very first player to join this list is damee, who probably doesn't need to be presented anymore. His skills really are outstanding, and have been proven many times, in very different domains. Let's try to summarize his deeds in a (non-exhaustive) list:
  • he has impressive statistics in Original, including an incredible 14 maximum breaks, over 300 centuries and over 1300 half-centuries
  • he is one of the very few players (exactly 6 for the time being) having hit a maximal break in all game types, and of the even fewer players (3) having hit at least twice each maximal break
  • he is the only player having hit a maximal break in all game types in one single day
  • he is one of the best carom players, leader of the ladder for ages, with an impressive 40% success percentage
  • having a big success in all game types, he has been at the top of the overall ladder for very long, only surpassed by destiny
  • even if this Unofficial Hall of Fame is only related to snooker, we can't forget he is also one of the best overall pool players, staying near the very top of the overall ladder, having an absolute run record in straight, and many more
  • last, but not least, he has been a moderator for over a year
With such a long and impressive list, it's no surprise he has easily won the first elections round.
Here are the detailed results of the vote, held on the funkysnooker forums:
- damee: 15 votes
- destiny: 6 votes
- ste_efc: 3 votes

Congratulations to damee, the first member of our Unofficial Hall of Fame!
