Wow this thread was crazy gravedug. o.o

Anyway I've met a buttload of people from CAA. Literally like 20 or 30 people from here. XD I met some of them at AX, a few at Otakon, and a few from other Christian-related events, or just stopped by because they lived close to me.

And when I go to Angel37's wedding in January, I'll meet even more CAA people. \o.o/

Have met a lot of people thru the net, especially on the hockey forum I go to. Made a lot of friends as well. But that's me. :)

I've never met any of my online friends, but wouldn't mind meeting the one day.
Some of my favorite scriptures.

Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

Hebrews 4-4
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.



James 4
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.



Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

I've never met any of my friends from CAA or the internet in general. XD If at all possible, I'd LOVE to go to Otakon this summer and meet some of them, but chances of that happening are fairly low. XD I'd love it if I could work something out, though. XD

To date, I met Psycho Ann, UC, OldMith & Wolf, true_noir_cloe, chibi-chan and Seiba and they all are as awesome as I hoped for. :) But pls keep in mind that we've been regularly corresponding with each other for at least 1-2 years.

Among a few amusing facts I will share is that Ann cannot drive-navigate a car properly if she's very hungry, UC is a bit like a zombie when he doesn't get enough sleep and OldMith had some type of feud with squirrels in his backyard.

Oh and yes, I've physically touched the wonderful CAA server with my bare fingers. :bootout:

If we're listing, then among the more prominent members of CAA I've met are Fish and Chips, Debitt, mechana2015, Sunako, K. Ayato, SirThinks2Much, Jaltus-bot, Kaligraphic, Ingemar, Cognitive Gear, Nightshade X, c.t.,girl, Mr. Rogers, Mr. SmartyPants, Peanut, SpoonyBard, Sakura15, Nami, Mangafanatic, Yumie, Kkun...

That's not everyone from CAA I've met, just the mostly active ones. By January 5th I'll have hopefully met Link Antilles, Angel37, FarmGirl, and who knows who else. \o.o/

I haven't met anyone from CAA.

But I have met two people (on different, randomly unplanned occasions) from a band forum. They don't even live in the same state. One was at an Anberlin concert (and my brother even accidentally took a photo with her in it), and the other was through a mutual friend's engagement party.
I've also met someone in usual circumstances (who lives in the same city), then later discovered that I saw one of their youtube videos many months earlier... so that counts, right? I also discovered that we were both at a music festival earlier in the year, and she features in a few of my photos from there as well... (weird, weird coincidences..)

I don't think I've had any planned meetings though.
Everywhere like such as, and MOES.

From CAA, I've run into Bradley/Roy Mustang/Wingzero22 twice at AWA (though I don't think he recognized me the second time).

No one else from here I can think of, but I've met numerous others from other places.

I've met Lightbringer, Shatterheart, Gypsy, Inkhana, ShiroiHikari, Calbhach, KKun, agasfas, Turbocat, and Cap'n Nick. All of which were extremely awesome experiences. In some cases I stayed for a few days, and in some cases there have been repeated visits and blossomed friendships. It was great. ^^

Although it was funny, in one instance we met for lunch and I remember thinking, "how will I know who he is? I've never seen is picture?"

So then I had to go up to random people and ask, "are you so-and-so?" until one said yes. XD

I've met two people from the interwebz before, one of them being KatieLou, who is also on here (albeit rarely). It was pretty fun, roaming around a mall and wreaking havoc, pointing out random things such as FMA Peppermints and Kon plushes. And the DBZ Box Set that had been stolen from FYE.

Good times, good times. :P

Hmm. Considering Lightbringer and Gypsy go to the same Church I do...we've met. *laughs* Met Ashley as well. Someone made this crazy rumor that Steve jumped a barricade during Ashleys high school graduation. ^^ I have almost met Scribs, Mourningdove, and Olorc. I belive Ashley and I met Turbocat. (I thought we did anyway) I have also met Shoo.

I met Mechana, K. Ayato, Sir Thinks2much, Nate, Mrsmartypants, Cognitive Gear, Mr Rogers, Ingemar, Nightshade X, Fish and Chips, Kaligraphic , Kokoro Daisuke, and Jaltus Bot... I met Mechana at a coffeeshop (he saw it in a video and was like "Hey, I know that place!" and I said "Let's meet up there!"), so he was the first one I met.

The second one I saw was actually Nate, I think. It was at AX. I looked at him, looked at his name tag... Nathan Kotter... Hmm... Oh yeah! I introduced myself, and he stared at me. I told the friend that brought me,"Hey, it's that guy that thought Majora's mask was better than Ocarina of Time and hates twilight princess!" My friend wasn't too eager to meet him.

Thing is, I had forgotten what Mechana looked like by that point (really bad remembering faces), so I knew I was supposed to meet up with the group in this restaurant, but I wasn't sure if it was them... The group in the restaurant was K. Ayato, Mechana, Cognitive Gear, and Sir Thinks2much. I stared at them, trying to remember Mech... I just kept staring, looking at K. Ayato to see if I remembered a picture of her I'd seen one time... I think the picture I had seen of her had long hair, so that wasn't much help. I think finally K. Ayato called me, and when I answered, she said "I think that's him, guys." So I met them there, and Mrsmartypants had shown up by that point. They said they were all going to go back to the expo. I decided to stay with my friend, the one who brought me, but we were going to meet up at borders later (or was it Barnes and Noble? Some bookstore, anyhow) On the way back to the expo, I heard someone say "Bobtheduck?" I turned around, and it was Ingemar. I don't think I realized until then that Ingemar was actually his name... Anyhow, I met Ingemar then. It was at the book store that I met Nightshade X, Kaligraphic, and I think Fish and Chips. I also met... Another girl who I can't remember, mostly because we weren't allowed to take pictures of her. We all went out to eat, had a grand old time, and had someone throw up right behind us while we ate.

My friend and I went our separate ways so I could go with the CAA group, and we went to a rave... Well, sort of... (I remember before AX, K. Ayato just said to me, out of the blue, "You better not ask me to dance at AX" and I'm like "I don't generally ask a girl i don't know to dance") I don't like chaos and really loud music, so I eventually went outside and waited for everyone... We then went back to the convention center, and hung out on the... Um... Well, it was the second floor of the hall, anyhow. Don't know the proper architectural term, I doubt balcony would work, would it? That's where I met Kokoro Daisuke and Mr Rogers (then Sldr4Christ198#) and we all snapped a picture together.

Then, a while later (August 4th, to be precise) I invited the local CAA people to my Birthday party. Nightshade X, K. Ayato, Sirthinks2much, Jaltus Bot, Cognitive Gear, and Ingemar showed up (I have this sinking feeling I may have missed one person, I'm sorry if I did) as well as a bunch of friends from my College group, and one friend from school. Fun times. Yarp. We discussed the war of the Nathans, ate Pizza, had chips, played some games, laughed at John Lennon, laughed at Hideo Kojima's latent... um... Yeah, well we laughed.

Then I had lunch once with Jaltus Bot. That was the last time I've seen anyone on CAA in person.

Probably didn't help that I was cosplaying, and had completely different hair from when you last saw me.
