Massman Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Heya girls and boys, Just wanted to check if we should invest time in setting up something special for the legends of overclocking. And if yes, who these people would be. Just to clarify what I mean by legends: this doesn't mean anyone who did something special for overclocking or the overclocking community. This means, in practical terms, people who you'd be nervous to talk to or you always will regard as better regardless of what results this person achieved in the past, in the present or in the future. So, in essence, when meeting these legends you feel humble as overclocker, but also as human being. For me personally, I had this when I first met Hipro5, Shamino and Macci. I'm pretty sure the same would be if I ever had the chance to meet Fredyama and K|ngp|n. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
der8auer Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) Yea i had this also as i met No_Name at my first bench-session, Fr3ak, Crotale and Kinc Nice guys!!! I think we have to collect names and make a Poll But how do you like to make the special status visible? In the personal hwbot profile? edit: Of course Stummerwinter =) Boris is a great guy!

K404 Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 I was nervous meeting Petri, Elmor and Massman. Shamino, Vince, OPB, Fredyama-san, Hipro, Mav, Sampsa, JonnyGuru, Tin... there's others, but if I knew I was about to meet those guys, i'd go "whoa" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 10, 2010 Crew Share Posted October 10, 2010 Dino, Youngpro, Fugger, Pt1t, SF3D, Elmor and Stummerwinter... I also thought Massman was much bigger, but also a bit nervous when I first met him... and I'm always humble towards anyone !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splave Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 nervous?!@ what is this school girl stuff haha Top 20 get a special status? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K404 Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 :p Thomas is too crazy to make people nervous..... his avatar is him humping an LN2 ranger! You aren't humble towards me You treat me like crap on MSN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K404 Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 nervous?!@ what is this school girl stuff hahaTop 20 get a special status? Well... to base it on rankings, there's already an award for HWB top 20. Plus e.g. Sampsa is miles off the top 20.. doesn't make him less special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 I don't think HWBOINTS should decide about legend-statuses ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Day Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 I think a legend is someone who is no longer actively benching but who was an iconic figure while they were in the game. So for me no active bencher can be or could be called legend. As to why you lot get nervous when you meet each just does my head - bunch of girls blouses the lot of you. :D Personally I would love to meet the Japanese benching team - they were my hero's big time, breaking the super Pi world record on entry level kit. Plus Duck is pretty good looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dualist Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Met SF3D, Sampsa and Hipro5 last year plus a number of other guys i really really respect but they were the ones I couldn't talk to, nowhere in their league, was a fantastic weekend though. Yep Clare, I was a big girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
