I think I am around the 31-40 range. I met a bunch of ppl on the site that shall not be named before I came over here (who I am still friends with), a few randoms, and then a bunch of the Boston peeps.
I put 15-20. Almost all are MMMs, except V (I won't tag, because I know she hates tags and raangoli, who I only recently learned I had met before we knew each other here
Are there, really? Yikes, I definitely underestimated then because aside from Boston posters I've met ladies from Chicago, NY, DC, and now London! Lots of SOs too
Sorry for those I've missed, and there are some others from the Nest. And you've met some others that I haven't and vice versa. See, easy to underestimate!
You have such a better memory than I! I'm terrible remember names, screen names and real names. I just guestimated.

I am the same way. I only went to that 1 Boston gtg, there were like 12 ppl there, there's a group of 5 or so, that I would recognize them, but I can't connect a real name to a screen name. I remember you, RockNVollscm1011rikkibostonmichelleAwkwardvtdiamond (but then I can't remember some of your first names either). I suck.

Haha! I was wondering if I could count that I've met you - but that seems like cheating, so I stuck to zero.
I often wonder if any of the NJ MMers would be up for a GTG, but I am too chicken to set something up!
There is a large group of us in KC that GTG often. I've also met @flatian, she introduced me to amazing donuts and I wish I was headed back there this spring.

Scratch that. At least 41. I just made a list and got to 34, but I definitely don't remember everyone who was at a couple GTGs I attended (including Boston).

Crap, you were one of the people I forgot on my list. I knew there were more OOTers that had come to Boston!
And, liveintheville, you know me too well, my list is indeed in a spreadsheet

If I were to count people from the local board, not all of whom have ever been on GBCN, I have no doubt I'd come close to 100. Not sure if I'd actually hit it.

I picked 41-50, which I'm pretty sure is accurate based on the number of Boston BTGs we have, plus some one-off's I've done when traveling or people have been through my city. Plus the ladies of the old MM like grrly and anka. Plus I went to a GTG with about 10 MMers in NYC - and we made a crucial error and selected a location for brunch without cocktails. Gee...that was SO long ago now. Probably four years ago-ish.
Then there was the time miso suggested we do local GTGs. So we planned a MM one at Patriot Place and maybe 10 people came to that, too.
