Who has met whom in real life

Split from this thread: https://greaterthangames.com/forum/topic/bottom-of-the-9th-world-series-7602

It's never great meeting Pydro, he's just a scurvy pirate!

Actually, Pydro seems pretty cool.  Having never met Ronway, however...

I think only two semi-regular forum goers have met me. Reckless and dshields.

And I've met dshields!  6 degrees of Kevin Bacon! :D

Six degrees of Ronway? 

…

OhDonnerwhathavewestarted…

I see how it is, Ronway.

You're not a mere forum goer. You are a forum master, along with Adam, Paul, and Jodie. Someday I will meet the other two forum masters.

sniff I see how it is.

Well if Ronway won't say it, I was glad if only briefly to meet Christopher and you in person at Origins.   One of these days I'll make it to a PAX or Gencon to either volunteer or act like I'm a volunteer at your booth. 

Yay! Do it!

Is it BGG.CON yet?

@Silverleaf

No, it is not (fortunately) :)

My fiancee did demos at PAX East, so some of you might have met her. I put in a brief appearance at the pre-dinner before I had to fly out of town. We both got a whiskey recommendation from Craig there! It was…smoky.

I miss Origins. I was very sad not to make it this year. 

I’ve met a lot of awesome people thanks to these forums. I remember meeting grysqurl, arenson9, Rabit, Donnor, Craig, Christopher, Paul, Adam, HumbleKnight…and I’m sure I’ve met more, but I don’t remember forum names too well.…I need to work on that. I remember faces though! 

(Also sorry if I spelt your forum name wrong. I typed this from memory. )

DanMarshall14 and I met last month. Unsurprisingly, SotM made for a good conversation starter of a fast-developing game-friendship (and maybe I can rope him into costuming...)

I have also met Cam Banks, who is a forum user, um... three times? Four? At a few local events. I'm sure he also saw me in the TC Pride Parade, but doubt he noticed. Big fan of his since MHR days!

I look forward to attending GenCon next year, which is my plan, and hopefully I can meet more-- and maybe do some volunteering. Teaching and running these games pleases me very much. Especially if the RPG needs some help by then...

There are occasions at Origins and GenCon where I feel like I'm accidentally stalking Cam Banks.  

One day, at Origins, I ended up in his proximity something like 4-5 times at various places:  behind him in line at North Market, at a restaurant for dinner a few tables away, ahead of me in the Dealer Hall.  It was a surreal experience, to be sure!

We need a separate league for Europeans! It's much harder for us to meet lots of forum people.

I have met (in no particular order): Christopher, Paul, Arenson9, Matchstickman, Pwatson, Ameena, Mezike, grysqgl. Am I forgetting anyone?

I plan to collect a few more in November. ;)

I got to meet Foote at Pax East once.

I even bought him a water, but he drank it wrong.

Met Craig, Rabit and Donner and PAX South.  Braithwaite demo'd Spirit Island for me.  Can't make BGG Con this year so hoping to see people in San Antonio again in Jan.

cough cough

best water I've ever had!

I haven't met anyone.  

Not even Arcanist Lupus?

As much as I think you are a pretty cool person, I unfortunately haven't met anyone on the forums. I have played on G+ and show up to handelabra streams but noone in real life. Unless you know who I am without me knowing who you are, ultimately becoming a very sneaky person

I've met a bunch of y'all, and it's been fantastic.

So have I. But I can't remember names now. One of the forum goers demo'ed Villains for me and my friend, and I talked to another who asked me who my favorite hero was. I said Legacy, but my mind ALWAYS changes because of the multitude of cool characters.

Anyway, I made my avatar a picture of myself so people can recognize me from Gen Con. I will change it soon enough, but I thought it would be a good way for people to put a forum name to a face. 

I introduced Medic-Tank to this game

I think I've met all the same people Silverleaf has, swapping myself for Silverleaf in that list and adding in BlueHairedMeerkat. Oh, and ViolentSilence. Umm, I think that's it...

Does google plus count?

I know Reckless and Neilzabub personally. That's about it!

If it does I have collected a whole lot more!

I've met arenson9, Rabit, Bharryn, and JayMann, all at Who's Yer Con or around the Indianapolis area.

I've met quite a few of you, most recently Pydro at Gen Con! It was great seeing everyone again.

This.

This was the first GenCon that I really spent much time hanging out at the >G booth/room and it was great. Apologies to anyone who I didn't get to talk to much while I was running demos. If only the convention were another 72 hours, then there would be time for everything…right?

It was great meeting you too!

I remember in the Apostate battle where Silverleaf said she calls squirrels squiggles, but i didnt think that was in typing…

And do cameos count? Because if so, I've met poor PWatson's corpse several times.

Braaiiiiiiiins. shuffle shuffle

I haven't met anybody from here because I don't have enough time to go to cons. And I have no idea if anybody else on here is remotley close to western South Dakota

As of last weekend, I've met Andy, Russ, Ian, & Peter.

I have family living in St. louis about 5 minutes from GTG and back before Villains of the Multiverse shipped I was able to go to GTG headquarters after receiving an invitation from Craig to drop by and say hello, tour the facility as well as play a game in a prototype version of MMFF. During that day visit I met/was introduced to Craig, Jenifer, Adam, Jodie and Paul,(I even got autographs from Paul and Adam on an index card!) Unfortunatly Christopher had already left a few hours earlier, so I have yet to meet/get an autograph from him.(Although I have played a game or two with him on the video game.) I don't think I have met any of the "forum people",dice hate me or Handelabra team yet but I'm sure that they are just as cool.

They are not. 

More cool?

When I met MigrantP he was wearing a NASA t-shirt and that is cool in my book.

I met a bunch at Gen-Con also, Donner, Pydro, arenson9, to name a few, and of course the GTG Staff, Jennifer is the best and I am glad she got to be in a video she and her hubby are so cool.

Ronway came to play at my game store, he even wore paints :)

Everyone I met has been great. Especially the Tactics teams, I found it hard not to root for them all.  

I will be at Universal Studios Next week Getting My Harry Potter on :), So everyone have a good week. 

Added (I will post pics on twitter if you want to see, Stating at Cape Canerval on Sunday)   https://twitter.com/dshields73kcmo

Ronway in body paint? (and presumably no pants) That must have been a crazy day.

Or "Tuesday" as Ronway calls it.

The best part was that it was a painting of Siege-Breaker.

If I cosplay as Seige-Breaker, does that mean people met me or you?

I have met nobody. I just have y'all in my Steam friend list.

Other than most of the GTG/Dice Hate Me (As much as I love Tactics, I don't think I've ever met Luther!) Dshields at GenCon 2015 and BraithWhite at the most recent Pax East are all that I concretely know I've met.

I'm sure I interacted with a lot of you volunteering at Pax East/ playing the tactics tourneys but since I've never thought to ask forum names, I don't know!

If you were at Gen Con 2015, you've probably met a lot of us – especially if you were in / around the tournament.

Quite possibly! I was demoing Bottom of the 9th and my wife was demoing Sentinels of the Multiverse during the final shift each day. I didn’t get much of a chance to say hi to the other volunteers because my table was so busy! Did I meet any of you and not realize?

Well, I demo-ed Bottom of 9th on the morning shifts and I was hanging around the tactics table with the people I came to pax with the rest of the time, so I'm sure we either were standing right next to each other or something = )

Edit: Oop double post sorry about that

I was at the tables at GenCon like...all the time, so you probably saw me there.

I know I've met several of you, but I'm really bad at remembering names (I remember people by their voices first and faces second), let alone remembering which meatspace names connect with what online handles. That's part of the reason why I just made my username my actual name and my avatar an actual photo of me. The other part is laziness. OK, mostly laziness. Whatever.

I've met people on two occasions, both times when I went to PAX East. The first was in 2011, when Kismet and the other Shattered Timelines characters were being shown off. The second was this most recent con, in 2016.

Off the top of my head, I'm pretty sure I met arenson in person. Also kz3rt, but that's cheating because we're friends in real life and I don't think he's posted here in a while, and a really cool unity cosplayer whose name I believe was Emily/Sejixs.

The lesson here is that if you want me to remember you, either go to college with me and teach me a really neat superhero card game, or be the only person at a booth dressed in bright pink and wearing goggles.

As of today, I have now met MigrantP :).

I think I met you at PAX East 2013

I wouldn’t mind meeting some people some day. Human or otherwise.

Well, if anyone is going to NYCC 2016 this year, we can totally meet up!
