I’ve only known of two London Dopefests, one I went to and one I couldn’t because I was out of the country at the time. I might try and organise another one when I get back from New York, if only so Quartz can grovel to me in person for forgetting that I’m British, the swine!
Nice 
I should go to the fest in new york, I’m only 2 hours away…but this weekend is a busy one.
Wow Maastricht, I’m so flattered! I’ve always thought you were uber sophisticated and have listened intently in the things you say. It’d be incredibly cool to be friends with someone who lives in the Netherlands. I’m very interested in learning about ways of life that seem a million light years from my own here in the US. So, anytime you’d like to chat, just give me a yell!

Ok, to go back to the original OP - who I’d like to meet online…
**Colibri **- a fabulous birder, and a resource I’d like if I ever get enough money and time to do a tropical birding trip
ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies because she’s family and has dogs and a good sense of humor
Sampiro, but I think I would feel too darn self-conscious about my lack of interesting things to say.
Nzinga, Seated because she makes me stop and think. I need that some days!
Cool, only a few months in and I got mentioned on the first page
Thank you Sunspace - the feeling is mutual!
Then there are quite the lot of you I’d love to meet; be it for a beer, a pub crawl, a pie or just for a laugh! An Gadai, Featherlou, Dread Pirate Jimbo, Illuminatiprimus, Siam Sam, Dolores Reborn, Gonzomax, Eleanorigby, OtakuLoki, Nashiitashi, Acid Lamp, to name few.
This place is great!
This is true. You’ll have Dopers on your list (and Robert DeNiro, if he ever decides to grace us with his presence again) and lurkers to say hi to.
There are many whom I’d like to just sit in the same room with and hope some of their intellect diffuses towards me simply because of the dizzying difference:
Stranger, Chronos, WhyNot, Dung Beetle, John Mace, Bricker, Darwin’s Finch, Blake, Una, Qadgop just to name some off the top of my head.
People like Alice, Skald, Voyager, Scylla, featherlou and way too many others seem like they’d be really fun and interesting people to just hang out with.
In short, I find many of the people here enjoyable on many different levels.
I’ve gotten a few PMs from this thread, how fun! I like to see threads where people are being HAPPY about communicating with one another 
I’d make anyone’s acquaintance. Most of you are bright and caring people, and I doubt there’d ever be a shortage of conversation.
Central/Western PA, not far from Punxsutawney.
I don’t get out much; most of the people I talk to are on City of Villains. I have met a few Dopers at Gettysdope and at a Pittsburgh fest; but my health is the big factor.
It was great meeting some of the more famous/infamous Dopers like weirddave, Ginger of the North, Airman Doors, Ms.Robyn, Opal (Hi, Opal!), Doc Cathode, twickster, Siege, and polycarp, among others. Sorry if I forgot to mention others who were there.
I just need to make more friends somehow.
Anaamika (actually, I know her already via email), and PunditLisa, ivylass, twickster, off the top of my head.
Anybody can PM me, anything to save me from the boredom of work (which will be even longer than usual on Monday and Tuesday, because I have to work but I have no classes. Bummer.)
Of the overeas dopers- in no particular order:
All the British people.
Dexter
QED
Anyone who would like to share an ale come to think of it.
Aw thanks Bibliocat!
There are so many intriguing Dopers that I’d like to meet that I couldn’t possibly name them all.
In a perfect world, I would host the Juggernaught of all Dopefests at my house so that I could meet all the Dopers. I could then die a happy woman.
Gosh, wouldn’t that be a festive Dopefest… :dubious:
“Yay! We all got together. Oh look, NinetyWt is dead.”
“Well, there goes the Dope’s lubricant specialist. Shit.”
You have chosen wisely; she is all those things, and more.
Sit with your back to the wall.
I’m just sayin’.
I’d love to meet all the people who I talk baseball with in the Game Room baseball threads. You’re all welcome here in Arizona during Spring Training or if you wish to see the greatness of the Arizona Diamondbacks in person. This includes Rickjay, What Exit, Asimovian, and everyone else who follows baseball in the monthly threads.
I’d also love to attend a church service with Polycarp.
Wow, I was mentioned twice? I know I’ve made an impact here but I never really thought I would be the type of person most dopers would want to meet in person. One of the ways I use this board is as a venting ground and quite frankly the stuff I’ve revealed here combined with my posting style and demographic, well, it certainly doesn’t put me in a very good light.
As for myself, I’ve already met the coolest poster here in person, so everyone else is gonna have to resign themselves to second place 
Some people I’d like to meet are Qadgop, olivesmarch4th, Cervaise, Siam Sam, Kythereia, Der Trihs, HazelnutCoffee, lekat, alice_in_wonderland, silver tyger girl, Terrifel, and schmedly. Y’all do know schmedly right?
