The one in the black shirt at the head of the table is Canuck Bob.

Yep.  I know that's him...leader of the gang.  Who are the ladies present?  The men, too.  

I always thought you needed to attend if you want to know who’s who. Doesn’t seem fair that we get to connect faces and names while remaining anonymous ourselves. Some people don’t care and some people do. Remember when POS Pedro would attend and take deliberately unflattering photos of people that he would then use in attacks on them? A real sweetheart, that guy.

Since you don't know the reason I don't attend, you're out of order in making assumptions on the matter. I'm not particularly anonymous either.  You and several other people know who I am, by name, since we have met face to face in the past. Remember the "coven" lunch?

Yes, I remember that lunch. (Great fun by the way.)
We are not all anonymous to everyone, but very few are known to all.
It does not matter why you don’t attend. You don’t.
I just said I had always thought those who attended the swarm lunches were outing themselves to each other, not to the entire board. Don’t think that was ever stated as a “rule” but maybe it needs to be clarified?

One can always post their pic as their avatar like many do.

Or not.

In my case my avatar is far better looking than I am.

Although I should update the photo. It is at least 6 years old now.

Maybe she seemed wonderful by contrast? The last straw for me was when he posted in my name a really filthy crude post. I couldn't believe anyone would ever think I'd write something like that... but remember Bob? You did. People believe what they read so often... power in the hands of someone like Pedro.. can be a really nasty weapon.

I was going to erroneously identify myself as you since you were the best looking dude at the table as I was busy up at the cashier trying to buy everyone´s lunch, BUT I was too late because all had paid.
I blame it on those deep pockets

Yes, it was a great time and the unpublished, never to be heard again, stories were priceless.
Unlike sausage, of which there was a discussion, you did want to see it being made.

More interesting would be the people who jumped up and ran to bathroom or outside just before the photo shoot only to reappear right afterwards…….. ….all

Yeah, trying to pay for all the lunches a half hour after everybody went home.
