The Hall of Fame forum is where we decide about our best rivals. Every week users can nominate and vote in a specific category.
The five nominations that get the most mentions will be up for the final vote the week after. The one receiving the most votes will go into the Hall of Fame.
Nominating
If you name more then three, only the first three will count. If you name the same structure three times, that will be counted as one. Do not use this thread for discussions.

(nikko, Bris vs Melb has died down.. ive seen no vs's between bris and melb, and ppl on Aus forums from both Melb and Bris have been civil to eachother, on many occasions complimenting the other city.)
The problem with nominating this rivalry is that it is one that is very one sided. New York could care less about Boston. Boston, on the other hand, is absolutely obsessed with New York. Trust me, if New York can be compared to London, there is no way that Boston can be compared to New York. New York is over 15 times the size in Boston and enjoys the highest international profile of any American city.
Boston is a great city in its own right that I have been lucky enough to call home the past four years. But this city still has a gigantic chip on its shoulder that not even the Red Sox World Series win has managed to smoothen.
I should maybe be more specific about my Hamilton vs. Buffalo thread, I think it should be the best (or one of the best) BLUE COLLAR city vs. threads rather than all cities. It makes more sense that way, come to think of it.
Overall, probably the best would be either:
Vancouver vs. Toronto
or
Chicago vs. Toronto,
there always seems to be a bit of controversy whenever those trio of cities battle, with Vancouver and Toronto for best Canadian city or Chicago and Toronto, with their so similar characteristics.
