OK guys, with the new board, I have a little more wiggle room as far as member rankings are concerned.
Basically, occasional poster and drinking buddy Miss DGB and myself came up with a few rankings when we first started this thing, and here's the current breakdown....
0-99 - New Recruit
100-199 - Pine Rider
200-399 - Little Sparky
400-749 - Torch Bearer
750+ - Die-Hard
For those of you that actually care about this (sure it's no big deal, but it just adds to the fun), we can add a few more rankings (I plan to keep the current ones but may change post counts if we add more). At the same time, I'm perfectly happy with the current breakdown.
Does anybody have any suggestions? Keep in mind, I'd like to keep it UIC related, supportive, and clean, and to try and keep each ranking unique. And, for the sake of consisentcy, nouns are preferred. For instance, how bout "Red & Blue Club"?
If people want to suggest, feel free....and then if a particular name or two get some support, I'll throw it in the mix....I won't just add every name suggested though....we can only add a couple more..
Keep in mind that if we change any rankings, our current ones will likely change...

The stompers
The deputies
I do love the torch bearer, but die hard is dumb just my opinion. Pine rider could use some work.

I think Torch-Bearer should be the best one...or I'm just not sure. I also don't love die-hard. I'll try to think of something cool. It's pretty tough.

I thought I'd revisit this discussion now that we have some new blood on the board. I'm open to new suggestions for new or improved board rankings. Anyone have any ideas? I'd like to get some more than just the 5 we currently have...
Creative and clean please....

0-99 "Recruit" (Drop the "new", unless "recruited" status is added)
100-199 "Future Starter"(shows potential unlike "pine rider"
200-299 "Starter" (fulfilling potential"
300-499 "Little Sparky" (achieving recognition)
500-750 "Sparky" (Respectable)
750-999 "Torch Bearer"(obviously carrying the torch of supporting UIC athletics
1000+ "En Fuego" (Spanish for "On Fire", lasts forever)

How about "Silver Circle Award" for highest ranking?

I also think Torch Bearer should be the last one. Before that one, however, I'd like "Pyromaniac". And before Pyromaniac, instead of Blue and Red Club, how about Indigo and Flame (that used to be the names of the Blue and Red description of the UIC colors). So the breakdown would be: New Recruit Pine Rider Little Sparky Indigo and Flame Die-Hard Pyromaniac Torch Bearer |

Do you think we can have the new additions up by the fall semester?

We can have the new additions up well before that Chuck. As soon as we get a list of things to put in, I'll do it.
Mostly, I'd like to get UIC-specific rankings...what's unique to UIC?
I do think I like "Torch Bearer" at the top so I will probably move that after Die-Hard.
I like the idea of naming one after the stomp, because the UIC stomp is one of a kind....maybe "Stomper Extraordinaire" or "Junior Stomper"...what do you think of those? Hopefully, stomper wouldn't object.
I kind of like "Starter" as well, but I think i still prefer Pine Rider to Future Starter...maybe I can work Sixth Man in there?....
I can do an Indigo & Flame Club, and I'd also like to do other clubs named after UIC greats. For instance, after Jimmy retires, I'd like there to be a "Jimmy Collins Club" ...and there probably should be a Cedrick Banks Club and Sherell Ford Club.
I also like the idea behind the Silver Circle Award...maybe we can spin it and use "Silver Circler" and put it before Torch Bearer?
