"Will you be remembered?”
Topping off this week’s Top 5 is a thread created by Australian Dead or Alive player – and equal opportunity, martial arts ass kicker – Tones. What he asks of us is simple: “Who are you and what have you accomplished?”In his own words:
“I'm currently toying with the idea of creating a list of DOA players who's skills and knowledge have actually been tested or put to good use. It will consist of 2 different list, (possibly 3) classifying those active and previously active (3rd possibly being special mentions). Players listed will have details consisting of a 1-2 sentence biography, character mains, years active, achievements and placing.”
Now I understand that there are many members out there who may feel a certain degree of discomfort at that query and may believe it to be little more than an exercise in stroking one’s own ego – which is true for some, myself included (*cough* 13th a Final Round, ZACK BEAM *COUGH*). However, to acknowledge the achievements that we ourselves, and those around us, have captured is not just about entertaining hubris, it’s about respecting the past and preserving history.
Of course, it’s difficult for some, still, to view it through that prism and that’s understandable.
But POST ANYWAY – how cool would it be, 10. . .20. . .30 years from now to be able to look down this list and reminisce about days gone by, about rivals long gone and about a time in a your life that only those on THAT (THIS) list. . . . could truly relate to - that they, can look back as well.
Here is mine.
