This. I know it might seem like finding celebrities willing to sign for you is hard work, and it is, but to put out a list of good TTM signers could mean that they will get spammed with requests. Not from huge fans--from people looking for an easy autograph. And I'm not saying you'd do this. You might just skim the list for people you like and there'd be no problem. It's just a bad idea in general to compose a list of good signers.
Just do your research--think of people you'd like to write to, and do a search for them on this site to see what kind of replies others have gotten. Compare them with IP examples to see if they're authentic, if that's important to you. Then, if/when you get a reply, it will be so much more satisfying since you actually took the time to seek out this celebrity you're a fan of.
