The name of the category might be Halfbakery:Honorary
Members
And I nominate this guy (link) for the first to be a recipient. I
think
we all
might agree that that was a really HalfBaked Idea, at least until
he
went ahead and actually Baked it.
Other nominees/recipients should be posted
as individual items
in
the Category. If the Category is created, I'll move this
nomination into it as a separate posting. Voting would
determine status with respect to qualifying as a recipient; if
there are more buns
than fishbones, then the nominee qualifies as an Honorary
Member.

Glutton free ? errh Gluten free ? |

I think the standard should be higher than "more buns than fishbones". Some pretty mediocre ideas meet that standard. I also think the person should be sent a physical plaque. |

There are already the ignoble awards which greatly reward
halfbaked ideas. |
|
| |
"Honorary?" As in conferring honor? |

How is skydiving into a net, halfbaked ? |

It was an unproven idea. The very definition of halfbaked right up until it wasn't anymore. If someone had posted the idea here as a stunt it would have drawn all sorts of conjectures and divisions on whether it was possible or not. |

The real question is;
Would they even care to belong to any club that would have them as a member?... |
|
| |
We don't have to tell anyone accepted as an Honorary
Member that that has happened. This IS the HalfBakery,
after all! |
