I know it has worked at other events, is this something we can try for next year?
PKF name and our real name would help me to know who's who, just a thought.
Some people don't need a name tag, but some of us do.

Agreed in principle. I have discovered after the fact that I was standing beside someone I'd have liked to meet and talk to, but didn't know. Popeye
was gracious enough to bring me a tshirt with "BeamerBob" on it and I got asked more than a dozen times "so you're BeamerBob?" They didn't know
without the shirt. And what did they mean by that anyway? :dunno: bigkid - 8-4-2011 at 07:44 AM
I meet BeamerBob last year and didn't remember, meet him again this year and I did remember 702dirtsurfer - 8-4-2011 at 08:03 AM

ha ha, a buddy of mine has that shirt as well - too funny
could be printed on the NABX buggy registration plate?PHREERIDER - 8-4-2011 at 08:35 AM
definitely need something...it would help with intros no doubt.
t-shirt, tag, tattoo something.
the bonus with the t-shirt you get to wear one shirt the whole time you're there, which really simplifies alot of decision making effort( and
reduces luggage!) now i can just take just one shirt instead of 2.popeyethewelder - 8-4-2011 at 10:11 AM
Anyone can get a cheap T-Shirt with their forum name on, it would have helped me no end, I get introduced to someone, and within 5 minutes I have
forgotten again.....its an age thang...acampbell - 8-4-2011 at 10:27 AM
Good Idea. For JIBE I will look at pin-on tags. I think stick on would come off in the summer sun and sweat, and lanyards around the neck are an
invitation for fouling with gear and lines. Buggy plates never went over well for me here as we do not formally race.BeamerBob - 8-4-2011 at 11:31 AM
Thanks Angus for dipping into how to properly execute it Angus. It needs to be cheap, and easy for the organizers and convenient enough to wear it
for everyone else's benefit.deanaoxo - 8-4-2011 at 11:43 AM
Some thoughts on name tags.
they only seem to work when you are not really doing anything.
For me, they always get in the way of kite flying.
I'm not opposed to putting your 'handle' on the plate though, although that's going to require a redesign and we'll have to run that by the redesign
department, who consults with the art department who likes to do everything on the way out the door to the next nabx.
I wish everyone just used their name, but that's just me. . .

name tags sux ... we can be more creative than that. also name tags cards would also require more work for the NABX Team, as the plates arent enough
work already. i cant remember if we did those mini cards, because I only had enough patience do to the buggy plates before wanting dinner.
not to forget that those name tags arent only stick for one time use.
if you're not known its because you dont come out to nabx enough ... meaning you need to attend this event annually. hehehe
really you should all be thinking creative about your own individual T-Shirts *hint hint*Kober - 8-4-2011 at 03:07 PM
Name Tag idea .....
10$ on ebay ....
BeamerBob - 8-4-2011 at 06:26 PM
The nametag on the buggy would be nice too. When everyone gears up with helmet and goggles and stuff, you can't tell who's messing with you. In camp
it would be nice when you are standing beside someone you don't know or don't remember meeting. Maybe some new shirts for us with names on them or
add names to existing shirts. I have side plates now so I can add something there for the buggy. Rip, what did you look like again? Can't quite
place you. :Pnocando - 8-4-2011 at 06:55 PM

next year's
BeamerBob - 8-4-2011 at 10:20 PM
Wow, I can see now why there isn't a mark vs. _________ show like the Rip and Dino show. Dino had to set up lots of his pranks even months in
advance. You could just make up whatever incriminating evidence you wanted! This is at least a close tie with the very high ranking "shooting
rainbow" shot.nocando - 9-4-2011 at 12:17 AM
Well done MarkWIllardTheGrey - 9-4-2011 at 01:00 AM

ahhh someone is looking at the detail - got about 2/3 the way down typing names and was taking too long looking through board names so I duped it for
the lower part - you can see I had a slow week for any real work.
Sorry I don't think I have you listed in there....yet
