I've been fortunate enough to meet a lot of the Fin's, a few members of the Few, a couple of US members (Rox, Babalonian and Curnutte) and to a man they've all been fun to be around. Going to Finland in the spring was the highlight of my year for 2 years in a row, and I'm hoping to be able to go this spring (missed last year unfortunately). I'd love to meet more, so far, not come across anyone who wasn't worth meeting.

Ink, were I able, I'd be up for more ink - maybe in the future fella.

Wurz

I met hlbly when I went to America. He was the perfect host & showed Mrs Shida and I around Oregon. I showed my gratitude by crashing one of his R/C planes for him. It was the least I could do.

Happy Friday Pipz!

Jeeeeeze, I must have alzheimers coming on or something, also met Brooke and his lovely wife, Traci (sorry Brooke  :()

Dhyran, I'd love to attend the eurocon at some stage, finances permitting - nothing like meeting people you play with and against online.

Ink, feeling is mutual my friend.

:salute

Wurz
I'm the worst pilot ingame ya know!!!

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.

The Wurz!  It was indeed great meeting you, Mrs. Wurz, and SF3.  Traci and I really enjoyed it.

In addition to Wurz and SF3, I have met Popsman (who is my dad), Tudza (a local pal and coworker and went on a B-24 ride with him), Wedge, 4440, SheGotYa, Alaskn, Fencer (in the 90's at an Air Warrior convention in Los Angeles), RabidRabbit (went on a B-25 ride with him), and about 10 players who were at the Museum of Flight get together in Seattle.  I have met Newman and Roscoroo who I don't think play anymore.  Rapier and Gazoom live nearby, so I will meet up with them at some point.
