I said Hi to Teflon Billy this year, but missed a chance to hang out with him. More's the pity--perhaps next year!

I woke up this morning and it all felt like some kind of dream.
Once a year it seems when the stars are right, Cthulhu's Librarian waves his hand and says a sacred chant, and for a brief time, like the continent of R'lyeh rising out of the waters, ENworld solidifies into a real community for five days. Then sinking back into the depths of the internet with the sun on Sunday evening...
Still, its humbling to my ego that no one has mentioned me!
My highlight was getting third in the Goodman Games Dungeon Crawl Classics tournament. I really didn't expect to get as far as I did. My team was made from random people that wanted to play. It blew my schedule out of the water. But it was all worth it to get my party eaten by a sphere of anihilation and a cool third place trophy.
Getting Wilderlands of High Fantasy... too bad I have to try and sell it. Best campaign setting ever! Its on the list for the reclaimation project if all the core books don't sell! (the big guy said all of it needs to be offered for sale so maybe it will be somthing he lets me keep...)
There were a lot of ENWorld Games that I missed out on, and hope that I see some of you next year and actually get to play in the games!
I really enjoyed hanging with Kennon and Liz, Joe and Suzie, Gertie and Mik,Phil(I know his name is not Phil, its a place holder cause I am completely drawing a blank, someone correct me!), Jason and Denise, Buttercup, Teflon Billy, Crothian, Cthulhu's Librarian, Pirate Cat, Truth Seeker (the guy with the biggest heart on ENWorld), Tim, Carl Zog, Fusangite, Psion, Rel, Ranger Wicket, Frukathka, CMG Mark, Glass Jaw, Steve, and the host of others I have failed to mention.
Expensive steak at St. Elmo's with Kennon, Liz, Carl Zog, Brett,and the two other guys I can't remember the names of (SORRY!) Glass Jaw and Steve was great too!
Holding back the tears durring Truth Seeker's toast.
Embarrasment when I tried to recover my room's chair from little Canadia!
Standing in line because I forgot my prereg badge.
Hangin for a week with my JrHigh/HS friend Brett. Even if he does bring up all the stupid things you did/said back then! Love to you bro!
Spending too much time waiting in line for the Wizards freebees on Saturday when sunday is the day to do that!
Returning home to find that my Gas was going to get turned off and my project at work had caught fire (figuratively) and somehow tripping the breaker for my master bedroom. (no light).
For future room parties we should have them set up by nation so we can use flags for easy spot checks. Should I attend next year, I will do Little Ballard as my theme with Norwegian and Sweedish Flags hanging out the door.

Chris (a.k.a. Glass Jaw) and Steve were the other two. Damn, that was a fine dinner!Additionally - it's Kennon, not just Ken.
I had an absolute blast every time I got the chance to hang out with you. From St. Elmos to the ENnies, to the RAM afterwards.

I had intended to write about you in my first post on this thread but couldn't remember your EN World handle (don't know if I ever actually knew it). *laughs* You're the only person that I think I really knew by first name instead of handle.

It's just funny when you say "wang." Or read it. Or type it. As a matter of fact, I was quite pleased to meet you.RangerWickett said:
