Wasn't that great of MLB to give us notice?  I suppose  this is where I will reside from now on.  I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Twitter was a lot better before they decided that chronological order of posts wasn't the best order.

If you use Tweetdeck, you can set up a list of Nats Twitter users, and have a column just for them. It's a more passive experience, but usually more informative if you are following Nats writers, bloggers and reporters.

I use it a lot on gamedays when the GDT has devolved.

Uggghhhhh I do NOT understand how people use Twitter to converse during a game, or at all really.  Trying to follow a conversation on twitter makes my head want to explode, and for as much as I love facebook it's just not the same as a messageboard when watching a game.  Does twitter make anyone else crazy when they're trying to follow along??

One of these days the people will rise up, pronounce me their leader...and I too will pin a thread.

"The people" would be the other Mods. This ain't no liberal democracy, Balto. :D

Welcome homey.  I believe we've had a few chats back in the day - hope you can make yourself at home.

True, we get to decide who runs against us for Moderator positions.  We also count the votes to make sure the elections are fair.

I found a couple of old threads about "blogger's night" that Spinman and Kimnat worked to organize, but not the group picture.

Nat of the living dead posted one but since then The Chief had to eliminate allowing direct loading of pictures to the forum, you have to link now.

With respect to having met you, perhaps you were incognito.  I have been trying to post a working list, cause the ol' memory isn't quite what it used to be.   :old:

Members you have met:

I have no appetite for being a mod. I've done it before and with a wife and a kid now--I don't have the energy.

Tom, over time I have met a number of the old mlb posters. Some I can remember  their real names but not poster names.
Sofia who I run into at the park on occasion;  Daveinmd; Powrboater; yourself I believe and some oters. All good people.

I see DaveBinMd frequently.  Count his strokes if you play golf with him however.     Kimnat used to post here but moved on.  I run into her around town once in a while.  Same with Shoeshineboy.  We had lunch at gas station tacos in G-Burg in mid-2012 and the Nats have been a new team ever since.   :whip:

Go to the Members tab above, and sort members by date joined, you'll see the wave of people that nearly all started in the "official" forum but ran over to here when that board was so troll ridden as to be barely usable.

We used to run into each other a bunch at the ballpark but it's been a few years. Hope to see you there this summer.

Powrboater just look for me at the end of a long hotdog line........the person first in line will be asking the Nats Dog server "what do you serve at this stand?   :)
Hope to see you

Not to mention the occasional poisoning.  Speaking of that, where's Nathan?

Hey TT,

Get Shoeshineboy to return. I really liked his analysis. Thought he was fair centered and balanced
