I'll toss another hint out there. All this persons transportation was ground-based :)

Crap! Now I am totaly lost... man... this is a stumper.

Its a big of an obscure question, but at the time there was a lot of talk about it because of the ridiculous amount of time this person traveled just to attend an AO meet :) I'll post the answer tomorrow is no one can guess. I've always thought it was a good example of the extremes AOers have gone to when it was time for an AO meet.

TNS2k2 took a bus from his town in the middle of nowhere in northern Ontario to Detroit, where he met up with the Detroit crew as they drove to Jersey. I believe it took him 28 hours to get to Jersey on Friday night.

Saturday we had AO day.

Sunday he left, and I think due to delays it took him over 30 hours to get home.

THAT IS A OBSCURE TIDBIT!!!!! Wow... what an adventure that musta been. I did recall some Canuk doing something weird but I had the wrong guy in my mind. And it's not all the wierd if its almost thier "norm"... all them Canadians is a tad crazy aren't they?

[Thordic]

Yeah it was a LOT of traveling for a day of paintball. We did manage to go in NYC for dinner when he got in, and I remember we had to drive through Times Square and he was speechless, it was kinda cool. I think the town hes from had like 400 people in it.

Anybody ever hear from him anymore?

[Thordic]

Last I heard he moved closer to civilization. Hes probably still in school, I think hes probably around 21-22 now.

And his viagara adventure will never get old. Its easily the funniest thing that ever happened in the old AO chat room.

Do we still have the logs for that?

Someone must still have it. I've read it at least five times since it happened and every time I can't stop laughing.

Old school as a reader here was the exploits of the GTGs and rarely the pb games themselves.

Drunken phone calls and the back-and-forth with the Air America guys.

Hamster was last seen with AGDJon and Tater at the 04 world cup.............
That dang Hamster never did make the trips he was supposed to. The agrement between Jon and I was that he was spposed to be sent around the Ao'ers, had a pic taken and posted, kinda like the gnome stories from college kids. Reminds me I gotta call AGDJon ad get the hamster back............
