The window to submit your top 60 Canucks list is now open. Please submit them via PM to myself.
The Deadline will be Sunday, January 18th at 6:00pm PST.
Please Read the rules before posting.
I am also looking for 1 or 2 participants willing to help me out. All you would need to do is if I receive a list that may need revision or explanation, I would just want a 2nd or 3rd pair of eyes to look it over to make sure there is no bias affecting my thoughts on it.
[*]Eligibility and Ranking Criteria
There is no rush to get this discussion completed. This thread will be open at least until the new year before we start accepting lists. The process of evaluating all lists will varying, depending on the number of lists submitted. There will be top rounds, with 4 players added to the list per round to get to our target of 40. Each vote discussion will last about a week, so at least 10 weeks for the voting.
If you are planning on participating in this project, make sure you are willing to be active in the discussion threads, and voting in each round. This project will likey take about 3 months.
Let the discussion begin! Shorty I will post some information that I have gathered over the last couple weeks for this project.

- Round 1
- All participants submit a list of 60 players ranked in order
- To make it easier to aggregate the submitted lists, please list players using their most commonly used name; e.g. Bobby Schmautz, not Robert Schmautz;
- Lists may be submitted via PM to myself (or another co-admin if someone is willing)
- We will be accepting lists until TBD Please PM myself if you can't make this timeframe and would like to participate
- Players will be assigned a point value on the list based on ranking

- An aggregate list of the top Canucks will be compiled ranking them in order of the most total points

- The top 10-12 ranked players from the aggregate list will be posted in a thread

- Player merits and rankings will be open for discussion and debate for a period of five (5) days. This may be extended the discussion period if it remains active
- Final voting will occur for two (2) days, via PM
- If there are major breaks in the Round 2 voting totals, we will add more or less than the targeted 4 players in certain rounds
- The number of players available for discussion at once will depend on natural breaks in the aggregate list put together in Round 1
- Tiebreak procedure: If two players are tied in voting points after a round, the higher ranking will go to the player who was ahead on a greater number of ballots. If they are still tied, it will remain a tie on the final list.
- Lists will be subject to an evaluation process
- The submitter of a questionable list will be given an opportunity to defend or justify any selection under question or to correct errors and resubmit
- The complete voting record of every participant will be released at the end of the project (up for discussion)
- Participants must recognize that this is a collaborative project and that we all share the same goals, no matter how much we disagree on individual ranking
