[quote name=\'zachhoran\' date=\'Mar 3 2004, 06:35 PM\'] There are people around here that have had and still had issues with me from two to eight years(they know who they are), and I choose not to attend. My "phone cameo" reference refers to one I made in 2002 that put some of said attendees of that GSC off. A few people were pissed off tonight that I made that reference. [/quote]
Wow. You would think that when one is AWARE that one is so annoying that one fears for their safety at a public event that one would take steps to at least review their behavior and figure out why.

And if you can't figure out why people would be pissed off at your obvious pride over what was no more than a semi-glorified prank-call, well, then I dunno what to do for you.

Well, it wasn't exactly a prank call. I was at that GSC, and Tom Hornikel, who was one of the people in charge of the GSC, KNEW that Zach was going to call. So really, the joke was on Zach.

If Tom didn't want me to call, he could have told me not to and I wouldn't have. The GSC that year was his hosting. I apologize to those people who were pissed off last night about my "reference"

Horse manure. You'd have called anyway, and you're not sorry in the least. You pretend to be sorry, but you never are.

[quote name=\'Gsguy\' date=\'Mar 3 2004, 10:02 PM\'] What kind of stuff is done at the convention besides what's been said already? [/quote]
Well, if we are lucky, we get at least one representative from every state in the country to either come or call. It's a difficult process, but it involves coming up with our choice for our nomination for President and Vice-President of the US.

Barker is usually our choice for Pres, however this year VP is up for grabs -- there has been talk of Trebek as a running mate, as well as Woolery, even Bergeron. Someone I know in Salt Lake City is mounting a Donny Osmond campaign...

On a related note, I was briefly upbeat when they said the convention was to be in Northeast PA -- only to find out it was to be in the Northeast 'part' of PA, and not in Northeast, PA (a town on I-90 at the PA/NY border, 20 minutes from Erie).

But the GSC-ers had the last laugh...there was some sort of 'phone problem' with the call just as Zach revealed himself as the mystery caller....more like a 'disconnection'. But Zach never called them back!

Tim, were you there to witness this? I'm assuming you were. I wasn't upset about it, whatever it was that happened.

Bump.

Craig Karlberg · « **Reply #24 on:** May 06, 2004, 04:45:50 AM »

Yeah, do we REALLY need to "bump" this one from the perverbial grave?

KrisW73 · « **Reply #25 on:** May 06, 2004, 11:30:45 AM »

Or you could post comments and questions about game shows. Heck, you could even have posted something like "Hey, this convention thing sounds interesting, I think I'll attend!" One sentence like that would have served *exactly* the same purpose as "BUMP" and you would have escaped this criticism.

KrisW73 · « **Reply #28 on:** May 06, 2004, 11:59:57 AM »

Well I am sorry

I wasn't aware of this I thought it was relevant as it was a month away. I'll be in the TTD 90 room if you need me.

J.R. · « **Reply #29 on:** May 06, 2004, 03:09:07 PM »

Me and Daddy Raygor will be attending ! I am tell all who are attending that I am bringing a big surprise for you all !
