I think we should aim for next weekend, then we have time to let everyone know. I think there's still a few ppl who don't know of his passing. Maybe Sat to allow for time diffrences. I've set #mortisspad up again, it's on irc.synirc.net (there site www.synirc.net/chat ). We can use ti to sort things out, and for ppl to meet up before we head over to UD. I think on the day we set this up for, have ppl come in with their name as Farmer_whatever. Maybe we could see if any of him family wanted to join as well. Edit, why not set up a pole for ppl to say where they think is best.

Ill be there too, I remember the '08 days way back when I was still in the FVZA and we worked with him, then joining here. Its awful everyone should get flare guns and send off a salute during the service or something to the effect. But reaching out to Keav would be a good idea, maybe even having the flag at creedy lowered to half mast for a month or so (or all flags throughout)

Goodbye Boob... You were always a plucky lad and will be missed.
Just did a reccy of the Fort. It won't be too hard to get back. Keeping is another problem.

Hi all. Sad to hear about this.. I think like many of us here the biggest shock is that he was so young when this happened. Reminds you just how fragile life can be *Sad face* Nice to see everyone has positive memories of FB though. "Leo out"

I'm in.
Here's all I've got of my in-game interactions with FB, sadly: · Charles Woody said "Whiskey goes down" (12-09 00:04 GMT) · Charles Woody said "You fire at Sgt Whiskey Swiper for 10 damage. They die." (12-09 00:04 GMT) · Charles Woody said "There is a dead body here. It's Sgt Whiskey Swiper." (12-09 00:06 GMT) · Charles Woody said "There is a dead body here. It's Sgt Whiskey Swiper." (12-09 00:08 GMT) · Farmer Bob said "What'd you do that for?" (12-09 00:08 GMT) · Gertoz said "Charles, you just killed the ACC member, Whiskey Swiper. He was allied with the CDF. Explain yourself or you get the same fate." (12-09 00:09 GMT) · Farmer Bob said "We have a runner." (12-09 00:12 GMT)
· Farmer Bob said "CDF Bob, you have commited crimes against the CDF and for that you will be killed." (12-14 23:30 GMT)
· Farmer Bob said "I got the zombie at Marshment down to 44HP, then I...I...I ran out of...ammo. *Cries* I also got the 'cades up to QS." (01-24 06:00 GMT)
· Ropptek said "Thanks for revivificating me Farmer Bob." (01-25 21:03 GMT) · Bradford Miller said "Thank you Rpptek for the crucial heal." (01-25 21:28 GMT) · Bradford Miller said "Sorry, I meant Ropptek." (01-25 21:28 GMT)
· Farmer Bob killed a zombie. (04-20 03:58 BST) · Farmer Bob said "Aww, that's so nice of you zombies. A couple of birthday Headshots!" (04-20 04:00 BST)
· Farmer Bob killed a zombie. (3 minutes ago)
· You say "I don't think Ada's got a board yet. brb, off to barricade stuff." · You say "Lousy ransacking. What are zeds going to learn to do next? Fly? Anyway, Maine is screwed and I put Scorse back to VHB+2. There are three zeds inside and a number of survivors." · Nunyah said "Sorry bout this, but if you insist on reviving me....." (12 minutes ago) · Nunyah said "ooops, I cant help but feel partly responsible for the axe wound to Gina..." (11 minutes ago) · Nunyah died from an infection. (7 minutes ago) · Farmer Bob killed a zombie. (3 minutes ago) · Big Toddo said "sigh, I hate zeds" (58 seconds ago) You say "You know, I'd have pity for combat-revived zombies if Kevan hadn't created the brain rot skill...which a certain whiny little metagamer doesn't seem to think was worth the effort to acquire. He did, however, get knife combat...good skill choice..." · Jeremy Daniels said "Thanks for the quick response to my distress call Bob. I almost had 'im! But almost only counts in Horseshoes, hand grenades, and small nuclear devices." (36 seconds ago) You say "Thanks for killing him, FB. I'd heal you, but I'm out of FAKs." · Farmer Bob said "No problem, guys. I've been too lazy to sit up from being revived for a good two days now. This really gave me incentive to DO something. XD" (20 hours and 56 minutes ago)

I'm definitely in. Though my 2 cents is it should be the Armoury. That's where we all met. That's all there was in those days. That is the heart of the CDF that Farmer Bob helped to build.

Next weekend sounds good. It will give us time to prepare and get everyone on board.
Also I can't create a poll on this forum. I'm don't have security clearance to do anything.
If someone could make a poll including all the suggestions in this thread and we can close it by Wednsday?

Farmer, news of your passing was brought to me through the only CDF contact I still have, Enoch. I was deeply saddened to hear that one of our oldest members, and such a young one, had passed on. Ive never had a gaming friend pass, and it's a surreal feeling, but no less tragic then a friend I have in person.
My thoughts go out to the "Farmer" family and I want them to know how much happiness he brought to our little Internet group in the old days. His spark and laid back attitude will be missed greatly.
-Cowboy
To the rest of the CDF crew: I'm sorry it took such a grave issue to bring me back to my roots. I miss you guys a great deal and it brings me a smile to know this forum never died. I never thought this thing could cling to life for so long. That just shows you the caliber of players/people we have and have had.

Incase anyone misses it, there's a thread called "Farmer Bob's resting place" with a poll to see where we should lay FB.

After having a chat with Spider in IRC, we think 11pm GMT Sat would be a good time to say goodbye to Farmer Bob. This works out to be 6pm for EST, if i remember right 8am Sun for El, and 9am (ish) for ppl in Oz. Anyone have any problems with the time? Also we were thinking maybe Friday to get the fort back, but i'll let Spider sort that out as he's the boss. (BTW, i only have rank till Sun so i can help sort things out) Edited for not knowing my time zones

I'm going to request FarmerBob be there for 24 hours. Hopefully invunderable to attack, so he will time out properly. Tomorrow poll should be closed so we can prep the area, and give Kevan enough notice to make the move.

Here's a link for ppl who don't have a client en.irc2go.com/webchat/?net=synIRC&room=mortisspadIf you have a client, all the info is in my post at the top of this page.

Greetings, all you oldster (and newbie) CDFers,
I signed in to pay my respects to FarmerBob.
Helmet's off to him. A good man, taken too young.
Hope the rest of you are well. Glad to see CDF (and UD) still chugging along.
For those who have no idea who I am (most all of you, I suspect), I came to CDF via NW rather than UD. In UD I was in MFD (retired as battalion chief) and did not have particularly close ties with CDF. But I did know FarmerBob --- he was quite a character.
I departed NW CDF already by August 2006. Probably haven't checked back to the forum more than a handful of times since. I was quits with NW by summer 2007. Good times, though. Good folks, here in CDF.
Please take an axe to a zed or two for old MFDhunk, in tribute to FarmerBob.

It's been too long...
But I remember Farmer Bob from the CDF.
I haven't been to Malton in awhile, but got the email none-the-less.
I was saddened by the news.
RIP Farmer Bob
Long live the CDF!

*shakes the dust off*
I too, remember Farmer. He was one of the old fellows when I first joined. He was a good man, and will be missed.
I'd post some of my logs of him, but I'm afraid I don't have them anymore. Damn.
May God watch over his soul, and his family. May he rest in piece.

I will try to make it, I will be on the irc via my iphone but ill be busy round 5pm est, but ill probably be able to respond via the app.... Also figured id let everyone on here know (even though its a month away) I just found out, on March 29th I will be donating my bone marrow so I may be away for a little bit, but anyhow, reason for posting that in here is, being that Bob lost his life figured id tell everyone that im helping extend someone else's and while I had plans to donate anyway, this ones for bob!

Tonight I will have a drink to a fallen comrade
Peace all ' nods at all the old timers ( yes old I'm 40 this year)

Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there, I did not die.

Hi all,
Can't remenber how long has been since i've left the game some years ago. I received the email on the sad news about Bob and had to drop by. So here, my condolences to all the family and friends of Farmer Bob.
I think i just played with you for a year or least, but i had a great time and i left with the thoughts that this is a great community with a lot of great players and, even better, great persons and i'm glad to see that it is still.
Hugs to everyone of you.
Johnny
