    The search is on - who is Captain Maggot?

    So the realization today that there is a "Snow Conditions and Weather" forum got me thinking that there is indeed life outside of Gear Swap, Ski/Snowboard and Sprockets (in the summer). But who posts in those other locations?

    disclaimer: Before you all get your panties further wadded (yes, the assumption is being made that of late most have their panties wadded) this is not a thread suggesting more or less forum topics.


    Who is Captain Maggot?

    So, if you've posted in every forum, step forward, you are a candidate.

    If you've started a thread in every forum, you are a serious contender. Considering the forum topics, Captain Maggot would have these qualities (and more of course):

    - well versed in topics from all realms and able to display both wit, humor, and be able to give a JONG a solid beat down, not to mention the occasional TR (ski/snowboard)
    - resort skier as well as a backcountry afficianado (slide zone)
    - gear whore who unloads it and buys it (gear swap)
    - mountains are not only for sliding on snow (Sprocket Rockets)
    - water is just another form of snow in which to play (Surf and Kayak)
    - traveling to ski is old hat and parties with other maggots is a norm (Summits)
    - despite his/her abilities, injury has not escaped Captain Maggot (Gimp Central)
    - need gear advice? Got spec questions? No worries for this maggot (Tech Talk)
    - asking and responding to the trivial and complex - check (Ask TGR)
    - the occasional pr0n and randomness is like old hat (Padded Room)
    - Captain Maggot could *almost* hang with Red Baron (Snow Conditions and Weather)
    - The occasional ride share is good for the planet and Captain Maggot - (Hook up)
    - Well educated? A life outside the boards? Yep (Music, Books, Movies)
    - Not only part of the history but making it (Archives and Hall of Fame)


    Who is it? IS there anyone who can step up and claim legend status? (besides Roo of course)

    Your employer pays you to post this stuff??????? Or are you just bored out of your skull. Not hard for you to do, considering you have two holes in it.

    Since then it's been a book you read in reverse, so you understand less as the pages turn.

    The things you find on the net.

    Slumbering in the deep sleep of malaise, depression, and winter. She may bloom as the Apple blossoms flower, and as such, will be beautiful, and ephemeral.

    Easy. Captain maggot (or magette) is crowned at every annual summit. The first person to start the "2008 summit at _______?" thread nominates a panel of three maggots, judging in several categories, the selection of which I leave up to the maggots.

    The coronation is given by the person who travels the farthest to attend the summit, which is probably Roo and he knows about coronations more than any of us anyway.

    Yeah, if only he was a little better educated ...

    As a Rontele alias I would agree. He is all over the forum all the time.

    I am sure me and his other couple of dozen aliases would support that!

    rontele?
    I resolve PC issues remotely. Need to get rid of all that pr0n you downloaded on your work laptop? Or did you just get a ton of viruses from searching for "geriatic midget sex"? Either way I can fix them. PM Me for maggot prices.

    I never go into "Surf", "Kayak", or "Snow and Weather Conditions", so I have no idea.

    Is Rontele in any Hall of Fame threads though?

    I would say, uh, Yossarian, or maybe Crinkle.

    aw shucks, I am flattered. While i don't currently have any Hall of Fame threads, I do think the work bathrooms =slay3d is worthy. That thread got snowsprite to talk about taking a dump.

    That being said, I am not basom. He just kills it, he should be coronated King of TGR, and given the hereditary title.

    But if the pressure mounts, I would be willing to consider the title of Duke of Alias.
