Putting a face to the name

d'Kong76 Nov 12 2015 02:32 AM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Nov 12 2015 03:04 AM

It came up in a thread today about meeting people irl outside of this marsh-like hangout so I thought I'd look at the member list and take a headcount. I've knowingly met [crossout:2dmefnb8]32[/crossout:2dmefnb8] 33 people who post here. There's a bunch of double and triple identities that of course I didn't count. Maybe-one-day list on quick look (no one left off intentionally): [list:2dmefnb8]Seo Grimm B'mags duan D'jesus Elster Lefty S metirish MgiM Oldmole T'monk Reality Chuck[/list:u:2dmefnb8]

themetfairy Nov 12 2015 02:54 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

I've met Seo, Grimm, Batmags, Metirish and theoldmole. As much as I feel that I know MGIM, I don't think that we've actually met in person (have we?).

d'Kong76 Nov 12 2015 03:14 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

You've likely met all the people who I counted so you're in the no-axe-murderers lead!

themetfairy Nov 12 2015 03:39 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

Woo Hoo!

TransMonk Nov 12 2015 03:02 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

I've met JCL, Gwreck, El Segundo Escupidor and G-Fafif. I was invited to hang out with Seawolf17 at the end of September while he was in my neck of the woods, but I couldn't swing it. :( I'm planning a trip to NYC to see a couple ballgames next summer. I'm hoping that even if it's not a main CPF gathering I can maybe cross a few more off the list while I'm in town.

The Red Light Forum is so much tamer than it used to be. http://archives.cranepoolforum.net/6900/f8_t6971.shtml

We really should have an annual outing at a game, we've been at all this a long time. We used to have a year-end meet up too. When you have some dates float 'em here and maybe we can use them as a starting point to plan something.

Mets Willets Point Nov 12 2015 05:52 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

Looking at the list of users who've made more than 100 posts, I've met Edgy, JCL, Frayed Knot, Metfairy, Seawolf, Rockin' Doc, cooby, d'Kong, Sharpie (I think?), dgwphotography, Farmed Ted, Batty, jb, Bret Sabermetric, and Giant Squidlike Creature.

cooby classic Nov 12 2015 06:17 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

I have met KC, metfairy, DDad, Willets, GFAFIF (at MKs Bar Mitzvah?) mets marathon, soup can, almost Farmer Ted, if I have missed anyone please forgive me! Still plenty of folks here I would love to meet Edit; jwphotography maybe?

seawolf17 Nov 12 2015 08:06 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

At a glance, looks like seventeen for me: Edge, Irish, JCL, Ceetar, MF, DDad, GFafif, Vic, Kase, Fman, marathon, CF, StevieJeets, DGW, WP, Segundo, smg.

Ceetar Nov 12 2015 08:52 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

JCL, wolfie, MF, DDad, GFafif, Kase, StevieJeets, Segundo, Lundy probably missing someone. I always miss someone.

d'Kong76 Nov 13 2015 02:14 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

Adding Nymr to list, I'm sure there's still others.

What was Batty31's original screenname? I can't remember.

d'Kong76 Nov 19 2015 06:02 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

I think MetsMagic or something similar.

MFS62 Dec 01 2015 03:31 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

I met about 5 or 6 of you at Shea a few years ago. I remember Kase (he did the introductions), Steve Jeets and maybe Vic. It happened fast. Later

d'Kong76 Dec 01 2015 05:56 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

Funny, I associate you with the Stormville Flea Market. I don't recall seeing you at good ol' Shea but as you said it was fast.

d'Kong76 Dec 17 2015 06:38 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

Yup©, remember that. I may have met Lefty S, but I'm not sure who he is entirely although I have a pretty good hunch :-)...

Mets Guy in Michigan Feb 21 2016 01:14 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

Alas, I think I've only been able to meet G-FAFIF, though I've had that pleasure twice! The whole living in Michigan thing makes it a challenge. But, the Mets are in Detroit in August. C'mon over and see how far Detroit has come. It's the Comeback City in the Comeback State! I'd love to serve as official host.

Benjamin Grimm Feb 21 2016 12:23 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

And if you do so, be sure to bring plenty of bottled water! (I'm sorry... I really am, but I couldn't resist.)

I know that the water problem is in Flint. I was just going for a cheap late night style joke.

Edgy MD Apr 18 2016 09:01 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

I'm happy to visit with comrades. Contact me thru the forum, though.

Chad Ochoseis Aug 06 2016 12:41 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

Visiting this forum for the first time in a while. I can confirm that MGiM is not an axe murderer. I met him in April when the Mets were in Cleveland.

d'Kong76 Aug 06 2016 01:10 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

I've only seen pics on social media, but he looks rather menacing to me.

Chad Ochoseis Nov 13 2017 11:44 PM Re: Putting a face to the name

How did this family oriented thread wind up in the red light forum? Anyway, my old college bud and I are passing through Albuquerque on a drive from Phoenix to Cleveland, so I got in touch with that jagoff A Boy Named Seo and after arguing about it for a bit, we're meeting for a beer tonight at some shipping container off Interstate 40. Really looking forward to it. Pictures to follow.

Ceetar Nov 14 2017 12:28 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

shipping container? uh, have you read Dexter?

41Forever Nov 14 2017 02:40 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

I don't think I ever mentioned that I had the pleasure of dining with Mr. Lunchbucket when he visited Grand Rapids earlier this year. We had a fun evening at one of the city's famed craft breweries.

Chad Ochoseis Nov 14 2017 03:49 AM Re: Putting a face to the name

A good time was had by all. We tried to engineer a trade for Kipnis, without success. Also made plans to take over Fman's house for a CPF outing to watch the Sky Chiefs in 2019. And I've learned that I've completely lost my tolerance for beer. A picture will be posted once I get the motivation to decrease the resolution so it fits.
