+El Diablo Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Quiggle is a new Mod that so far has done a great job. He/she has been very even handed and has moderated in a very neutural manner. He/she kind of reminds me of Hydee. So I'm wondering if Quiggle is a male or a female? I'm betting a female. Your thoughts? Either way....nice to have you Quiggle! El Diablo
+Airmapper Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) Quiggles always been nice to me. Opps, it's not fair to try and get brownie points in here.. Well it was worth a shot.... Edited October 22, 2005 by Airmapper
+sept1c_tank Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 My guess is Quiggle is a male; I think Quiggle is Keystone. Since Quiggle rhymes with wiggle, it is cute. Keystone may be moonlighting with a cute name, hoping that forum posters will think it is a female and talk nice to him.
+cache_test_dummies Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Whoever it is, I'm quite certain the name "Quiggle" was chosen because the name "NudeQuiggle" was already taken.
+dogbreathcanada Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 He/she has been very even handed and has moderated in a very neutural manner. Neutural? Did you mean neutered?
+clearpath Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Quiggles is one tough cookie. I've never had my warn meter spiked until Quiggles got ahold of me. Now I have to watch it ... Like Ringbone used to say, "I've never met a mod I didn't like."
Skovar Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Who/what/why is Quiggle? I don't know, I don't care, and I'm not in the least bit curious.

+dkwolf Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Quiggles is one tough cookie. I've never had my warn meter spiked until Quiggles got ahold of me. Now I have to watch it ... Like Ringbone used to say, "I've never met a mod I didn't like." Okay, so I've heard mention of the warn meter several times....can anyone elaborate? That something like the 'warn' function on AIM?
+Airmapper Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 I would assume he means that as a metaphor, I don't know of an actual warning meter. (I hope I don't do anything to find out.) Due to the subject matter he made the comment in question on, I believe he earned the warning.
+Prime Suspect Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 So I'm wondering if Quiggle is a male or a female? Absolutely.
+mtn-man Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 I am spart---er...Quiggle No, I'm Spartacus.
+Corp Of Discovery Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) There used to be warning meters. I think everyone could see everyone elses, or maybe you could just see your own. Now no one can see them, except for moderators (or so they tell us). Then again it could be a ruse to keep us all in line and make it easier for 'The Man' to keep 'The List' in order. I did hear mention once tho, that 'spiking your own meter' could be fun. Not as much fun as when you quiggle a chomby tho. Edited October 22, 2005 by Corp Of Discovery
+dogbreathcanada Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) From the Urban Dictionary: quiggle: Anything that is inflated, like a persons head or a tire. Hmmm ... I can think of any number of moderators (except mtn-man) who would fit that description ... including one who doesn't appear to cache ... ever. Edited October 22, 2005 by dogbreathcanada
Keystone Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) From the Urban Dictionary: quiggle: Anything that is inflated, like a persons head or a tire. Hmmm ... I can think of any number of moderators (except mtn-man) who would fit that description ... including one who doesn't appear to cache ... ever. Each active member of the Groundspeak Forums Volunteer Moderator Team is also an active geocacher, with find counts in the hundreds or thousands. Many volunteers choose to use separate accounts for their volunteer work, in order to distinguish that activity from their geocaching fun. Those separate accounts, such as mine or Quiggle's, will not show any significant geocaching activity. Let's keep this thread positive and free from gratuitous swipes against our newest moderator, or any other moderator. Thanks. Edited October 22, 2005 by Keystone
CurmudgeonlyGal Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 I'm just going to have to guess that Quiggle is not Keystone. He's old... and crotchety. Quiggle is new... and fresh... rather bon vivant for a moderater, really.
Trinity's Crew Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) To paraphrase one of my favorite lines from "The Life of Brian", I'm Quiggle, and so is my wife! Edit: Removed unwanted spaces. Edited October 22, 2005 by Trinity's Crew
Trinity's Crew Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 And at the risk of having my warning meter spiked, while Quiggle is polite, in my opinion, he/she comes off a bit heavy-handed at times. Maybe thats just because I enjoy the OCCASIONAL off-topic one-liner.
+briansnat Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Hey can Quiggle moderate a thread about him?
Trinity's Crew Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) By the way, I think ***edited to remove my guess because I didn't ask first*** is Quiggle. An alter-ego may not be necessary in ***edited to remove information that might allow you to guess who I thought it was and since I didn't ask, I thought I should remove it*** but might helpful in the general forums. Just my guess. Edited to remove my guess because, although you may not know it, I didn't ask permission. Edited October 22, 2005 by Trinity's Crew
WH Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Quiggle = The Leprechauns Almost at exactly the same time as quiggle mad his appearnace, Leprechauns stepped down as an OT mod so he could become a moderator and cache approver.

+GrizzlyJohn Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 Would it actually be OK to take a real guess at this? If the actual identity of the perosn is guessed would they get a mad about it? I have an idea but I don't want to actually p.o. the person if I am right.

Keystone Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 GrizzlyJohn, it was *very* nice of you to ask first. Thank you! Quiggle is using what we call an "anonymous reviewer account." Guesses about his or her true identity -- whether correct or incorrect -- are a source of angst. We know that speculation goes on, but would be most appreciative if that could be confined to private conversations. Also, note that Maryland is adjacent to West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
+GrizzlyJohn Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) I understand if someone wants to keep their real identity secret. If I want to get someone p.o. at me I think I will save it for something more worth it. Edited October 22, 2005 by GrizzlyJohn

With a name like Quiggles you must consider all the variables ...

Actually it wasn't intended as a speculation, but more as a compliment. Hydee is not a shy person and I doubt that she would ever use any other name than her own. The bottom line is this thread isn't about speculating who Quiggle is. El Diablo

+mtn-man Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 This is so easy. It is either ~erik~ or me. Flip a coin. That's what we do.
Trinity's Crew Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 I edited my post to remove my guess, but based on the sub-title, (Hydee moonlighting?) I assumed that guessing was acceptable.

Trinity's Crew Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) Why does my phone say Ringtone? I think it's a male, but the 600 or so of you who read my unedited post already knew that. Edited to add guess. Edited October 22, 2005 by Trinity's Crew
