Who are your favorite 3 members... Yes, Right NOW!!!

[Byzantine Prince]

This obviously not a poll, just post your 3 most preferable members.
Mine in no order:
JAG
TuffStuffMcgruff
NeonGod

And please no ass-kissing. That is against the rules.

[Cygnus X-1]

BKS - I have my reasons.
Gawain - He likes Clapton. 'Nuff said.
Toga - Pretty fantastic advice given to me on the subject of my guitar auditions.

But hey, i havn't been here long.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

This should be ok, but play nice-if it gets divisive, I'm closing it.

As an utterly unbiased mod, I obviously have no favourites.

But hey, i havn't been here long.

Lies! All Lies.

Some of our longer-serving patrons will probably be able to figure out who your previous incarnation was...

all have been very very nice to ichi

I enjoy Pindar, for his intelligence,
Beirut for his humor
Puzz for his knowledge of the game

I find Gawain, PJ, Dave, and Alexander to be worthy debaters even though they are wrong about a lot

there's more but . . .

ichi

[Big_John]

uh...

khelvan because i'm a big fan of the EB mod?
Mouzafphaerre because he has a cool name?
Big King Sanctaphrax because he likes floyd?

but i'm a fickle mistress.

[Tachikaze]

Really, there are lots of forumers whose posts I enjoy reading. But I have always had special regards for JAG, Idaho, and Jaguara--who may be long gone now.

[Voigtkampf]

There are so many people here I like, it would take a whole day to count them all… They know it well, for instance I'm in great terms with the entire staff and could list all of them, then there are the members of CoH, but to name only three… Hmmm, let's see…

Pindar-sama, because he is intelligent, wise and eloquent.

Beirut-kun, because he is hilarious, witty and a lumberjack.

Ichi-sensei, because there’s nothing worse than having an ichi you can never scratchy!

But, as I said, there are many other members of the forum and the staff I consider to be my friends and like them just as much as the named ones. Even if omitting them, they’ll know I love them sooooo…

[Togakure]

I have the same dilemma with this question as I would with the "name your favorite three bands of all time" one--just too many good options to limit it to three--way too many. So, I'll do like Ichi did--except in my long-winded style.

And since Ichi means one in Japanese, I'll mention him first. Ichi is a cool, laid back dude with a good sense of humor, who helps people here when he can, and plays VI very honorably. And he's a firefighter--a most noble profession. And he prolly lives closest to me of those I know here.

TosaInu. He runs this board immaculately without any real personal benefit other than the satisfaction of knowing he is enabling so many of us to do what we do here. Some of my most enjoyable Shogun games in the old days were played against him--unpredictable, varied, and always fun and friendly.

Drisos. One word--Enthusiasm! Well, ok two more words--Shogun Diehard. Well ok, a few more--helpful, courteous, and kind. He has inherited the Sword Dojo, and does a fine job keeping it alive.

Sasaki Kojiro/Mimesaka Akechi. He first greeted me here when I came to the Org. He helped me learn Shogun MP. We fought like cat and dog in the Masterless and 47Ronin and still managed to remain friends. He's the best damn 1v1 Shogun dude I've ever played.

Here's a sweet couple that just bust my buttons: Devastatin' Dave and Gawaine. My very first rant was directed at DaveinKorea way back when, and I was resolved to dislike him with a gusto for being such a rude dweeb of a conservative twerp. I have since come to understand him somewhat (I think, if that's even possible), and now that I do, I think he's hilarious. Gawaine--similar. His political views were so different from mine, and sometimes he stated them so meanly that I initially took a strong dislike to him. But I've come to know him better, played some VI with him, and now I find him to be quite a cool person--one who's been through some shyte and is still strong. Maybe a bit too strong sometimes, but hey ... aren't many of us? These two add a lot of spice to our community.

Redleg. Sharp and passionate, with a good sense of humor--a bit twisted like mine. Knows his stuff and explains it well. Like many here, served in the US armed forces, helping to ensure the lifestyle which I am so lucky to have here in the USA. A distinct flavor in the Backroom.

Puzz3D. The master of TW stats and game mechanics, always willing to answer questions thoroughly. Truly committed to the betterment of the game and the community. Had some very nice games with him and Tosa on Shogun back in the day. And he likes silent films, which are cool.

BKS. It's rare that you find such a consistently polite, level-headed, intelligent, and well-spoken teenager with such good taste in music. He should consider not wearing dresses though ... WAY too ugly for that . Poor TK ... .

Hosakawa Tito. My favorite Mod (though Ser is coming up quick), and the one who gave me my warning point. Direct, fair, honest, and understanding, and he has a good sense of humor too. I miss his presence.

Ser Clegane. Sharp as a tack in thought, smooth as a babe's behind in "speech," and always considerate in how he expresses himself. I don't think a better choice for Backroom Moderator could have been made.

Kas. The first organization I joined in the community was Kas' Masterless. Kas clued me in on the workings of the community, was my team m8 in the only 2v2 tourney in which I've ever participated, and has become a True friend, totally apart from all this TW stuff. If I manage to visit Europe, I will make a beeline to the Netherlands to meet him and his lovely wife Michele. I won't play golf with him though; it's just not my thing.

Gregoshi. very helpful and friendly to me in my early days here, and tactful about offering suggestions as to how to better get along with peeps on this board. He's gone out of his way to assist me with problems I've had, and it seemed to be a personal assist, not so much an official one. Such sincerity and commitment is admirable, and much appreciated.

It's very late for me here and I'm sure I've forgotten some important folks, so I'll add them later when I think of them. Thanks to all for bein' so cool. Oh, and if you accuse me of ass-kissing BP, I'll kiss your pert lil virtual arse with the point of my virtual steel-toed fu shoe--I mean what I say and say what I mean ... except maybe in stupid, emotional arguments in the Backroom .

To those who have mentioned me: *bows*. I wouldn't have thought I'd make anyone's list, being the grumpy old temperamental fart that I am.

[Togakure]

... Some of our longer-serving patrons will probably be able to figure out who your previous incarnation was...

No way ... he's not ... "Good ol' Fashioned Loverboy" is he??!! I remember him talking about buying a guitar a bit ago ... and he hasn't been around in his "previous" incarnation ... and he mentions you for "personal reasons" here ... and there was another confusing TK around ... hmm ... I dunno but now you got me thinkin' .. gah it's late I need to SLEEP!

*starts counting Wolves ...*

[PanzerJaeger]

Tough question - everyone's pretty nice and helpful as long as you reciprocate.

Gawain - We had great times on the MTW multiplayer battlefield. I learned alot from him there. He convinced me to join the .org after I had some initial problems gittin on the member list. Hes helped me hammer out some of my ideology regarding politics. Overall hes a nice guy, very smart, and those days in MTW will always be remembered as the best time ive ever had with a video game.

Ichi - Pretty much for the same reasons as Gawain minus the political stuff. Awesome times in MTW. It was great to see his new armies and pit mine against them, or smash some little peons together. Always honorable and friendly on and off the field. We've had some "discussions" in the backroom, but nothing too ugly. Although I dont agree with him I respect where he's coming from and its always fun to read his posts, only thing better is fighting with him.

Capo - A fellow German military enthusiast. Hes a great guy and, although his politics make some people angry, he seldom gets angry or obnoxious about them. !! Achtung Panzer !!.

[The Stranger]

Craterus fellow spammer on all forums, and a funny guy. i don't know him long but i like him.

Quietus i don't really know him but he seems nice, and he makes me beautiful sigs.

Arrowhead i see the confused faces. but i actually like him. he's very funny. and i had great time annoying him.

As far as posters go...

Gawain - A great immovable object. Frequently makes errors, but always in a very professional way.

Goofball - He even smells Canadian.

Redleg/AdrianII (tie) - Both are (mostly) well reasoned and frequently make me question my sanity.

As for the Mods...

Voigtkampf - Mac Daddy. Daddy Mac.

Big King Sanctaphrax - He dig da Floyd in da way it should be dug.

[Craterus]

Thanks Emperor Umeu 1. Apart from the spam part... I ONLY SPAM IN FRONTROOM!!!!

My favourite members, (I don't think I could name specific 3):

Katank - He knows a lot about battlefield and campaign strategy and has helped me out in RTW Guides section. I've also heard about his knowledge of MTW. He's a cool guy and a great strategist.

Pezhetaroi - See above.. He knows a great deal about the game too. Really helpful when your campaigns are in need of rescuing.

AdrianII - I've never had a discussion with him, but I've read some of his posts (past and present) and most are really funny.

Tibilicus and Littlegannon - Fellow clan members and cool guys.

Emperor Umeu 1 - I like him, he seems to like me. We just get on well.

That's to name a few. Sorry if I forgot anyone.

[Copperhaired Berserker!]

Craterus, for doing a brillant story and man, he is a very funny guy

Quietus, for doing such a useful guide

Monk, a brillant Mod for this fourm

and Mikeus for being a good ORG. member

[Craterus]

Good choices, especially me :P.

P.S. It's Quietus, not Quintus. Or is this a guide I have yet to read.

[Copperhaired Berserker!]

oh yeah.

[Mikeus Caesar]

No one loves me...

[Copperhaired Berserker!]

don't worry Mikeus I've forgotten you in my list but now your in.

[lancelot]

No one loves me...

Me too...

[Copperhaired Berserker!]

sorry Lanceot, haven't seen enough posts of yours to put you in.

[Mikeus Caesar]

w00t, i'm a good .Org member!!

[Kaiser of Arabia]

Hard to choose just 3, but I'll try (I'll post 3 more later till I get everyone I don't hate up )

PanzerJager: Fellow German military enthusiast, a helpful guy too. Plus I can agree with him alot. Never gets pissy about his political views either. Actung Panzer!

KurkriKhan: A great moderater, a great guy. Nice, helpful, and intellegent. My favorite moderator.

Dave: Dave once said (and this is from quite a while back, I think it was the most conservative poll with Navaros calling me a socialist left-wing radical cause I listen to Queen) that "Me and Capo are cut from the same block" or somthing along those lines. He gets down and dirty when arguing, and always makes me spit whatever I'm drinking all over the keyboard while reading his posts. Salut!

[Copperhaired Berserker!]

I don't think anyone loves me too

[Kaiser of Arabia]

Are you, by chance, the same beserker from Allies&Axis total war and SCC?

[Copperhaired Berserker!]

nope

[Copperhaired Berserker!]

Why can't i get a sig from Quietus?

[The Stranger]

who have got a sig of quietus. maybe ask, i just found a post in my box and very surprised. he said he liked me and i like people that like me. i don't know, but i've seen him on the Meadhall and he is a good writer, btw just like you

[Husar]

Well, I´d say

Gawain and Panzer Jager, because they have some feeling for good old morale(the days of Bismarck ) and I can generally agree with most of what they say.

I love to read posts from Paul Peru, I like his sense of humor.

Of course there are others, but I´ll stick to those three for now.
