Apparently I don’t follow good internet protocol; I now use [OOC] to officially indicate I am speaking out of character. I figured OOC was enough of an indication, but hey, what do I know?
I digress.
Since mentioning PyjamaSam and I will be attending Fanfest this year, I’ve seen a lot of fellow EVE Bloggers post that they too will be at the party. Additionally, I’ve also received some emails, instant messages, etc, etc, asking how anyone will know who I am?
I thought maybe I could wear a big “My name is Roc” badge (do they do anything like that already?) and that might make it easier.
One of my regular readers joked that I’m probably either the skinny scared kid in the corner or the big fat guy at the buffet.
Wrong on both counts.
I’ve decided to break the internet/reality barrier for this special occasion and post some pictures of the real me. Even gonna post it early for my friends in the UK.
See you at Fanfest.





Love the top one, its got a proper Roc-esque vibe to it. Have fun at fan fest! (Just thought I’d get that in a few months early.)
Hee hee, now I know who to buy a drink if I manage to get there!
Well, provided I might do at least Ill recognize two people ( CK was the other) but I’ve met Zapatero the E-ON editor in chief 🙂 I’ll buy ya a beer 🙂
Hey hey this guy looks great! That one picture makes it look like you got a triangle bald spit, but you don’t!
Looking good.
Wow, at first I thought it was an April fools prank, you look so much like Roc.
Well you win the prize my dear. “prod a silly oaf” is an anagram for April Fool’s Day.
The photos are of a friend of mine at work, a great guy by the name of Alan whom was kind enough to let me take these photos.
I guess you’re all going to have to wait until Fanfest to meet the real me … the shy skinny fat guy at the corner of the buffet.
Happy April Fool’s
Arg ya got us! Ya got us!
He looks very similar to Roc tho, and got some of that Vin-Desil-y look.
=D
You had me going with the shirt, good job.
Every time I read the title, I see “Pod the Silly Oaf”. I guess it was your stunt double after all.
Dear Sir, It is an honor to see you IRL and OOC.
I Hope I see you at the academy working hard and teaching those rookies what real combat is all about.
HOOAHH!
Was thinking about saying something before I realized the date. Good one!
Gotta get that shirt…
