He defined what was thought to be impossible for modders to add more than 50 maps to the mainmenu, and let everyone know that it did not infact, rely on the XBE, but the MainMenu itself. he broke the barriers, and exceeded where others have tried, and failed.
Link?
I also nominate jefff for various behind-the-scene work and sav3r.

No offense, I don't really think that's that big of a deal... Not trying to bash him, but it just allows people to put a ton of maps on a map pack. I really don't think there are even enough maps worth playing over and over to put them in one map pack and have more than 50 maps. If it had been unlocking AI through the mainmenu when everyone thought it was in the xbe that would be sick.
Edit: Wow I'm a noob...

all the old boys who made the discoveries that the newbs are using today need to be mentioned. I won't begin to mention them all because i will forget someone for sure. So heres a few people i'd give special mention to
Mr Murder = love your work, always have and always will
Scotty G = dude, you keep surprising me, you have the right attitude and know how to mod well, nice work
headtrauma = dude, i know you probably don't check this site anymore but you are the effectspert
doorm4n = the most important thing to remember about doorman is he discovered his own way of doing things, didn't copy others
trulife= no one knew more about AI you rock man
apache= i forgot his exact name but as founder of team defiance he lead and discovered alot of impressive things, a great leader
and the people making the programs we love: swamp fox, iron forge, tjc2k4, xbox7887, pokecancer, shade45, jefff and all the others
theres heaps more but its hard to remember names.... alot of respect to all the members of my past teams re-animators inc and team defiance, its been great, lookin forward to seeing what talent is in the future of modding.
Northy179
Retired Modder (ex Team DeFiance, Team Arbitration, Re-Animators inc)
Yeah, Doorm4n knew his stuff, I remember when he build the Dawn of Warfare castles, Its weird because we like hate each other now, But I miss him lol I'll hit him up on aim and see how he is.
And headtrauma was a great person to work with, He just made every mod so unique with his effects, I remember the Hell mod for gemini, Man those were the great days of modding, where no one cared for fame and did it just to have fun on XBC, Damn man its really a shame how things are starting to turn out.....

He deserves to be on that list.

It's not just fixing that, this error on the plugins is the reason of the broken idents too, the tags which are not clonned correctly... the apps which use the .ent need to be fixed, that's all i am asking for and i never said it was awesome i just say it's something so stupid that no one was able to find and when i found it i just told to the community.

Yeah it was a good discovery, but if you get nominated into the hall of fame for plugin work, you need to have done at least like 10 plugin things, not found a programming error for the apps, even though it is an important error, that's like nominating that kid who accidentally hexed the "teleport" when you press the thumbstick, not saying you had an accident discovery, but hopefully you get what I'm saying.

In other words, he wouldnt be on there before i am
>_>
<_<
Thanks for the extera posts guys...I need time to write up nice descriptions that do these people justice...
Its also nice seeing some of the people suggested.. They were people in the community that I forgot about myself, but when brought up it brings back some memories...which is great

Technically its only me animating though
Doorm4n should be up there . He's been an inspiration to me and after seeing his mods, It encouraged me to mod(yes I still mod... secretly <.<). In other words, If he hadn't been here neither would I.
plus I believe he helped with the discovery of mach mods, which is still used in pretty much every mod today. I'll get some links up...
Done.
*Mach Discovery
*Dawn of warfare
*UnEarth, Which is what inspired me to mod.
*Exhaustion
SU8ZERO was amazing too but I haven't seen him around too much except at halomaps
and IMO, Turk and detox should be up there. Turk for all of his mods which are unique and were discovered by himself(at least I think) I.E. Ragdoll, monser warthog, and his mainmenu hax which is still on the front page, and Detox for being an app god.
And quit being so modest and put yourself up there, you know you deserve it

I've written up a new list of a few more people who include northy doorm4n JC, zenon, pyroman and maybe a few more...I gotta type it up a bit better.
And I apologise to shade45...I didn't do you justice, I'll add the inclusion of you're contribution to entity as well as the massive help with system link fixing.

hahaha Do you guys remember my first mod? Lego Halo! It would be cool to see SU8ZERO on there. He was my partner in crime! He did all the dirty hard work for me. However, he wasn't much of a Halomods player. He kept to his own situation and reinforced all my mods with his modding talent. Thanks for the Fame! HahAHAHAHAH
Remember kids!
Mod for Fun and Not for the Hall of Fame!
I doubt any of you guys remember this but, Krayola (who I havn't talked to in over 2 years) created the FIRST racetrack mach mod after I posted Underground Arena! The map was called Krayola's Raceway!
BTW> 5 Team DeFiance Members are currently on there! W00t!
Farklem = Dothalo
Turk = Can create and bring smiles upon all of our faces with his creative jmad edits.
