Which ENWorlder Would You Want to Meet?

[Raven Crowking]

Actually, I would love to meet Celebrim and Raven Crowking. Arguing with those two over a beer, along with Kamikaze Midget and Rounser would be a blast.

Hey, you're passionate about what you believe, and you're not a dick. Anytime you're in Toronto, I'll be happy to argue over pints.

[Mycanid]

Hmm ....

Well, I guess I would have to put Raven Crowking, Treebore, Dannyalcatraz and Aurora on the list....

I'd probably freak everyone else out, and I feel like I have practically met Frukathka already.

I know thalmin reasonably well, since he's the owner of my FLGS.

I've had lunch with Xander and MavrickWeirdo when they came to Chicago.

Teflon Billy was playing at a table next to me at GenCon a few years ago, but I didn't want to bug him (he was deeply into the game).

Beyond that, it'd be cool to meet any of you.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Thanks for the mention, Mycanid!

I'm one of those who would like to meet just about anyone on these boards. I don't care if I like them or they infuriate me...I just think it would be cool to put a face to a screen-name, maybe exchange stories.

(Heck, with the number of gamers I've met in Austin & D/FW, I probably have and just don't know it.)

But, like everyone else, there are some in particular I'd like to meet above all others (If you aren't mentioned, don't take it personally...there's just so many! ENWorld is like the Obelisk from the Space Odyssey movies: "My God! It's full of stars!"):

I'd love to meet Col Playdoh, of course, if only to thank him for his inestimable contribution to the RPG hobby. It would kind of be like being a hockey fan and meeting Wayne Gretsky, or a guitarist meeting Eric Clapton.

I'd like to buy a drink for the people who keep this board running and relatively polite, and I'd do the same for those who actually put out quality product, regardless of publishing house or system. You know who you are: Hyp, Rel, TB, Mouseferatu, Mark CMG, and many others.

I'd also like to meet those whose other hobbies/jobs I share (like playing guitar, or jewelry making, law) or who make threads a pleasure to read because of their weirdness, wit or wisdom. We all know who they are- Diaglo, hong, Dr. Awkward, Shilsen, etc.

 

[Wayside]

I'm sure nearly all ENWorlders would get along with one another in person, no matter how passionate their disagreements might be online.

That said, the three people I'd go out of my way to meet, if we happened to be in the same place at the same time, are shilsen, Akrasia and eyebeams.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

I just wanna figure out which one of y'all is Vin Diesel.

 

[Dog Moon]

I met quite a few EnWorlders myself at GenCon 05.

However, those that are on my list are the ones I spend a good portion of my time with in the hive:

Aurora
Mycanid
Jdvn1
Aeson
megamania
Galeros
Darth K'Trava

I know I haven't been on the hivemind much recently, but how come I'm not on that list?

 

[caudor]

This is sort of like going through your high school yearbook...just to see if your name pops up anywhere.

Yes, there are too many names to list. Mark CMG, Nightfall, Buttercup, Hypersmurf, Dannyalcatraz, Hussar, Zaruthustran, Henry, MerricB, Psion, Morrus, Truth Seeker, RangerREG, Teflon_Billy, Anti-Sean, Olaf the Stout, Jdvn1, Wik, and so many others.

 

[Pants]

I just wanna figure out which one of y'all is Vin Diesel.

*shifty eyes*

Um well, I certainly wouldn't mind meeting that douc- I mean dude Hobo, along with Eric Noah, hong, Dark Jezter (don't know how much he posts here anymore), Demiurge, Kamikaze, Whizbang, Merric, and Hussar.

 

[Thunderfoot]

Without doubt, hong and Diaglo. I've been talking with them online for so many years, it's a friggin' crime not to have met them.

Met a ton of folks last year at GenCon, PC, Crothian, and Cthuluthu's Librarian are all super nice. Got to sit in on a game the Mike Mearls ran, and right after the Rust Monster article (I was all set to baste him over a medium flame, but fhe's just so nice, you really can't and feel good about waking up in the morning.) I finally got to meet diaglo after chatting with him on the board at WotC and then here, he's a great guy that I still owe a beer to....

Frankly, I'd like to meet you Henry, Dannyalcatraz (because a black, lawyer from Texas is just Awesome. (much luv bra))and Nyaricus just because of the chats on the Off-topic boards (musicians, music lawyers and producers of the world - unite and make money!), Umbran, because all that angst has to have a silver lining somewhere (I'll bet he likes to get drunk and dance on tables), Whizzbang Dustyboots (simply because we have butted heads so many time on these boards that I OWE him a beer so we can sit down and argue in person like real gentlemen), and a host of others that I am forgetting to mention.
