Heres one that no one has mentioned that I would love to talk to again one day, if possible:
Jack Wolfspider-had an absolute great time with him in 19 and 43. Met him at the Philly F2F where his best warrior in his 43 stable was killed (wrote a personal honoring it). I stopped playing for awhile and lost contact with him.
Jason 'Sungod' Speck now lives in NM, and though I have tried on many occassions, he absolutely refuses to play again.
Ultraist, I havent heard from him in awhile either. Great dude, hopefully one day he will come back, or will get a chance to speak with him again.
Doc Steele, wanted to be him when I first started, now I hope he one day comes back (after I can make a full return) so I can spend less time idolizing him, and more time challenging him
Anyways, Im not and probably will never be a mega manager, and that doesnt bother me. Hopefully though, if God blesses me with a job to where i can stay longer than a few turns, I can stick around long enough to make some kind of name for myself, as long as it isnt the worst manager in all of DM history

Forgot to mention Soultaker, and Floydd. Those guys made the last two F2F's that I attended worth while, and they taught me alot about the game.
