No dues in 05. The virtual t-shirts are being made by virtual elves using virtual money in a virtual sweatshop somewhere in the Virtual World

Sorry, you cannot reserve anything ahead ... read back through the posts, others have played fair.

You can, however, watch and jump on the number when it come up

GOOD LUCK

Edge?

Look back, I asked #2 and pmed her, she passed.

Now, if anyone else wants to keep track below, PLEASE be my guest. Until then, I guess you need to wait!

besides, only I know where the virtual t-shirts and clingies are being made by our minions but I would be glad to pass that secret info on to whoever below me wants to pick it up Being civic minded, I was doing a service for the community

LOL chows... so now the number is a "rank"... if your number is lower than someone else's, I guess you "outrank" them, huh?

SOOOOOO funny. The club with no rules that somehow invents them along the way.

Skiploder... what's stopping you? Just put "MMC #666" in your signature. BAM. Done.

There's no committee, there's no president... heck, the first person who started the entire idea (M Power - #1) is MIA - hasn't been on NAM in 3 months!

I suppose since Clover (MINIClo - #2) is a forum moderator, she has defacto power to enforce anything she wants over this silly club...

MMC - the NAM comedy club, at least for very amused observers like me.

In lieu of the power vacum in the MMC club I proclaim myself the president and Supreme Commander of MMC. My first non-official act is to abolish all rules and regulation and to enforce an non-comital slacker attitude. Further more, I assign Edge an MMC number of 1,234,567.89! Meeting adjourned.

He outranks every one but MMC Members 1 through 56.

So it appears.

Violation of a new club rule. I do not want to get started off on the wrong foot here.......

There has apparently been an internal power struggle going on at MMC Headquarters. From Goaljnky's last post, it appears he has usurped the No. 1 spot in a (hopefully) bloodless coup.

M-Power was a reported recluse, an enigma if you will. The fact that the club had swelled to so many members without his presence on this Forum is a testament to his charisma and leadership abilities.

For Goaljnky to assume power in such a brilliant stroke bespeaks of his charisma and cunning. Furthermore, he appears to be a hockey fan. Let's hope he's note an Avalanche fan...........

I suppose since Clover (MINIClo - #2) is a forum moderator, she has defacto power to enforce anything she wants over this silly club...
For Chrissake's Edge, be careful of insulting the Moderatrix! One does not mention the words "Clo" and "Silly" in the same paragraph, let alone sentence! Some have speculated that she may be the true power behind the Club.........anger her not my friend..........

MMC - the NAM comedy club, at least for very amused observers like me.
No no no - it stands for Mini Motoring Club. The NAM Comedy Club is completely unafilliated........

Edge is not a member, and speaks with no authority.

Chows4us is the de facto club president since the mystifying disappearance of our founder. He has taken up the torch and kept things running, where the rest of us saw fit to languish in idle complacency.

Plenty of people have asked to reserve numbers in advance, and it's never happened. I guess that makes it the rule.

I am preparing my appeal to Goaljnky as we speak - what's your MMC number tough guy? Huh?

Why, worried you'll get into some kind of "trouble" from the non-existant club authorities?

Nah, I didn't call HER silly, I called the club silly. She's here to enforce forum rules, she's not a dictator! While I have never met her, I hope I get the chance at some point (kinda wish I'd gone back to the Dragon for the small Fall gathering now heh).

Damn it! Why am I forever cursed with this constant reference to one name Roy? FYI I have been claiming this number since March 3, 1965.

The leadership, or dictatorship if you will, of this club has been established. All pretenders to the throne of MMC must follow proper procedures. But since the club has no rules, or procedures it would only follow that such task cannot be acomplished, thus making my titular position of President and Supreme Commander a lifetime post. Furthermore, your insolance will not be tolerated! HENCHMEN!!!!!

Edge, how come only you (and Mbab once in a while way back) are the only one to try to publically ridicule our little fun? What do you care about our secret meetings and virtual bling? The other 19000 members of NAM, who really are apathetic to it are just that, apathetic. But not you. hmm ... why is that?

Goaljinky, as Donald says, YOUR FIRED. You didn't ask for the secret password which cannot and will not be typed in a public forum Next time, ask for the secret password

Leadership is only as strong as those who respect and follow that leader.

I got my money on Chows.

At least until "The Return of the King" I think Chows is a pretty good steward.

I neither demand, nor ask for respect, or a following. I do demand obedience. And worship. And an occasional tribute.
