Meeting real, live ah players

[Molsman]

Man

I forgot about all the past and present players of AH I met back in 2000 out in Indy before we all migrated over from Air Warrior. Mage, Kelton, Steel, Spiffy, 1ijac, Rhian and the list goes on.



 Ink maybe I will hide in Von's Jeep and come up

oh i forgot to mentioned the weirdest thing that ever happened to me.  i lived in nc when i started playing aw, i joined the 327th steel talons squad.  the squad who actually started koth as a weekly squad duel then some other guys asked to join then it became a really popular weekly event in aw.

anyway i moved back to ca and i was working in the simi valley or somewhere around there as a closet door installer for home depot and lowe's.  this time back in the early 2000's I went to this house to install a door and once finished on my way out i noticed by the door a hat with the 327th logo on it.  I got lost just looking at it that the lady had to touch my shoulder to get my attention.  for some reason I didnt say anything and to this day i regret as I wouldda met one of the 327th guys that I still love.

I still cry when I think about it as we spent some good times playing the game in aw.

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.

i guess no one lives down here in Beaumont

Nobaddy (NB) hails from Beaumont. He was instrumental in organising a few of the Grapevine AH Cons, designed Trinty and goes back a LONG way with Hitech to the DOS days of Air Warrior. Haven't seen him lately...maybe WoW snatched him up 

[xbrit]

I must be going senile, I almost forgot all of the Guys at the Indy AH Con in  2003. Some I can still remember are Alaskn, 1ijac, Wax, Karaya,Hap,PTBop, Flo, Jordi, loser, Alpo, Box, Curval and of course Hitech. there were many more just need to find that pack of cards to list them all.

So what you all are trying to tell me... the ID's I shoot down in the MA are real people and not just AI?

yeah come out little snail, join the talks, taste some good friendship and you might find out even a snail don't needs an armour all time. You can explain all past 5 years pie charts after the 10th beer too
choose life, come out little snail

10 beers would probably kill me

ok, start with 2 than, but just do it, for example the EC is about 100-150 km away from you....

come on snail, don't be such a pie chart, stop hanging around at your desk only 

[Lusche]

ok, start with 2 than

Would probably do the same to me  ... I don't drink any. In fact no alcohol at all. I avoid all places where I might run into a greater number of drunk people, so that's why cons are mostly a bad idea for me

well, don't hesitate, we trained keeping a constant level over the years you problaly you even didn't recognise anything. The dutch has coffee, coke and water all the way, even milk for white chart modules can be served, man don't be such a lush, join now!

But obviously I failed at getting my point across. It's not because I might think there's nothing there for me to drink... 

I can't stand drunk people around me. Totally.    I'm very serious on that matter.
