The New Board

[Nocturnal Submission]

Is it my imagination or have a lot of newbies joined nu-OTF? If so, it's great news, but if all these new members are merely re-names I wish they'd fess up, though some of course have. The alias thread is hardly comprehensive.

So, let's see if we can make a definitive list.

I was Noctunal Submission on the old board as I am on this.

[Gangster Octopus]

The New Board

Try here.

[JtS]

The New Board

I was JtS recently and years ago having signed up originally in 2000 as Jason the Saint (an homage to Jimmy the Saint in Things to do in Denver when you're dead.

In between I canged my name to Jason K; Maneki Neko; Bo Darville, Bo D.

[Nocturnal Submission]

The New Board

GO,

As I said, the alias thread only contains a number of (genuine) changes and a more complete picture of the composition of the new board would be handy.

[David Agnew]

The New Board

Who is MIA from the regular posters?

I haven't seen Super Sharp Shooter or Malcolm C here yet.

[ursus arctos]

The New Board

A number of people have told me that it was very difficult to register on the old board towards the end, and that this one is easier in that respect. I think that we may therefore be dealing with pent-up demand in some respect.

Some reasonably active posters who I think are genuinely new (not in any way meant to be an exhaustive list):

dotmund
Gyuri
Baroudeur
Mercedes Actros
Bafflin Smoke Signals
CarnivorousVulgaris

[Anton Gramscescu]

The New Board

psounder is new, too, I think. Isn't Albert Tatlock SSS?

Me, I'm just impressed that the new board has yet to see a single ruck. Must be the soothing pastels.

Also, I'm impressed by Books. The Basement looks a lot better over here.

[tracteurgarcon]

The New Board

I like the new board, in fact I prefer it to the old one.

There, I've said it, deal with it.

[Nocturnal Submission]

The New Board

A heretic!!!

[Anton Gramscescu]

The New Board

You just said that to start a ruck.

New Board vs the Old Board, but which is better? There's only one way to find out!...FIGHT!

[Mumpo]

The New Board

There's tallglover too, but I think I might have offended him already.

[ursus arctos]

The New Board

psounder is in fact one of the new people I forgot about.

Tatlock can't be SSS unless SSS actually absorbed some football knowledge by osmosis on the old board, which is something that I always thought he vigorously denied.

Of course it might be the case that SSS was also Bona Fide and Shanklyboy.

[De Geas Clean Linen]

The New Board

I wrote a poem to mark my return to OTF. Would you all like to read it? Its very good.

Malcolm C - he's ten times the man Malcolm X ever was.

[G-Man]

The New Board

Excellent, boris.

Albert Tatlock is a Man Utd supporter, it would seem. It would make my day if it emerged that SSS and I prefer the same football club.

[Hofzinser]

The New Board

Yes, applause for boris indeed.

I thought that Bafflin' Smoke Signals was an old regular's new alias, although I may be wrong. Albert Tatlock is certainly not SSS.
