Which ENWorlder Would You Want to Meet?

[The Green Adam]

Wow...interesting thread. There are numerous people here I'd like to meet but top of my list would have to be DMAC, the incomparable Darren Calvert. Aside from being a big fan of his work for sometime, I'd love to get the chance to talk shop and learn more about the process of a fellow artist. Heh. If you read this Darren, I don't want you to get the wrong idea. I know I've said it before but really, I'm taking down those pictures and candles around the shrine in my bathroom any day now.

I no longer want to meet MerricB, I just want to be him. All of the people that call/have called the shots at WotC seem to want to meet him. He is just that cool!

So, like, I am going to totally cop out and say that there are too many people, that I would like to meet, to name.

And then, like, I am going to list those that come to mind with the most haste:

Eric Noah - As the grand patriarch of our online community, and as a generally cool guy, is someone I would certainly like to meet. Not to mention he is also a teacher, like many in my Dad's family, so that is pretty neat.

PirateCat - When I think " storyhour " , PirateCat's is the first to come to mind. Also, his is one of the few games a suggestion of mine ever perhaps made a lasting impact on. With the dearth of updates, I'm also curious as to whether he has gotten any more mileage out of it since the defeat of the White Kingdom.

Sagiro - As far as I can tell, conspicuously missing from any other posts, up to this point! Author of the second storyhour that comes to my mind when I think on the subject. I envy everyone in his and PirateCat's powerhouse gaming group their two awesome DMs. That he is also a game designer and has voiced a few characters is cool as well.

Sepulchrave II - Because the level of detail and philosophy is his storyhour is simply amazing. Truly the standard for epic ROLE-playing.

jonrog1 - Not sure whatever happened to him, other than fame and... umm... infame... He also had a cool storyhour, probably not surprising, given his profession.

HellHound & MikeBr99 - Because they grew up or are within spitting distance of where I live, and yet despite having come here for many years, have never met them.

I'd like to meet:

Dark Jezter
Warlord Ralts
Wyn A'rienh
Anti-Sean
Orchid Blossom
Ao
Ghostwind
barsoomcore
nerfherder
...and more...

I was going to mention Hobo, but that would just be so I can kick his ass. I hate that jerk.

jonrog1 - Not sure whatever happened to him, other than fame and... umm... infame... He also had a cool storyhour, probably not surprising, given his profession.

I spoke to him when I was out in LA a few months ago. He's writing Blue Beetle and writing scripts; his great blog (warning, politics) can be found at Kung Fu Monkey.

 

[The Green Adam]

Waaaay back when EN World was called Eric Noah's 3E Page (or something of that nature), I was already a fan and bumped into a guy at GenCon wearing a t-shirt for the site. It blew my mind that there would even be such a thing. When I asked the fellow where he got it he said, "I'm Eric Noah".

That was a fun show and my ex-wife and I got to Eric and his significant other for a little while. Very nice guy, extremely smart and it made a great show even better.

 

[Mycanid]

I've had the pleasure of meeting quite a number of the goodly folk here at NC Gamedays and would like to see any of them again (especially the lovely female ones ), but not counting people I've already met: Frukathka, Wizarddru, Thanee, Crothian, Jdvn1, Megamania, Mycanid, and I'm sure a slew of others that didn't spring immediately to mind but I'll kick myself for later.

Especially, though, anyone I haven't met who participated in my "paladin trial" thread a few years back.

And Gundark.

Awww ... thanks sir.

 

[Berandor]

Oh, duh!

Berandor, so we could talk writing and stuff, and he could demonstrate in person how he's more proficient in his second language than I am in my first

And I'd love to meet any of the Ceramic DM regulars, except maybe for Mythago who scares me a little

Me?

(It helps to search for oneself every once in a while...)

Honestly, if I ever get to any place in the US anytime soon, I will make sure to check whether there's a Ceramic DM writer in the area whom I can buy a beer (and whose story-writing secrets I can steal). But Rodrigo Istalindir is quite at the top of my list. One day, we should all get together for a week and do a real-world story competition...

 

[The_Warlock]

Having lurked here since the Eric Noah's 3E page days, and having been inundated with so many good ideas, funny stories, and the best forum environment I've ever come across, there's definitely a list...

Piratecat, Sagiro, and Shilsen top the list, if only to bask in Evil DM Radiation. It was reading those story hours that actually made me made an account here so I could more easily track and follow them.

Wulf Ratbane's posts definitely hit the mark, and he always seemed a smart and entertaining poster. And hey, he published his own darn self...

spyscribe and the Halmae group sound like a hoot and a half - For Justice!

And Goldmoon, Heckler, Mycanid, Aurora, Aeson and others for 500 posts of unrepentnant humor that only the Hive can contain...

There's probably more, but I'm bad with names...

 

[MerricB]

If I could only choose one person it would be MerricB.

I'd love to meet you too, Linae. Alas, my travel plans being what they are, it seems unlikely in the near future. Best wishes to you and your children, though.

Cheers!
