I wore a nametag at the picnic. At some point I switched with Mot and wore his nametag though.

HAHAhahaha!-
Yeah, I remember you, Luke - You were easy to pick out when I was walking around since I recognised the pics of your stereo install, and you had it turned up loud enough for a demo there was no mistaking you, so that's why I knew who you were when I introduced myself that day.
And I know Joe F, and I've talked to Ed a few times - I'd recognise say Josh A & Matt, but I got there too late that day to find them. I know a bunch of the WA guys, so that wasn't a deal either. But there were a 1/2 dozen or so WA guys I wanted to meet who I wouldn't recognise. Again, nametags with usernames would solve this.
I know nametags are teh ghey, but heck - we all know each other & it would really save time if we could just walk up to someone & think "Oh, yeah, this is ____"- and if there was something in particular about their car, you could save tons of time. You could sense that was the overall feel, because unless you were lucky & found the person next to their car, you just weren't going to get a chance to talk to them.
I dig the E30 Picnic & all, and I might be in a minority - but it always seems so quiet like we are all a bunch of strangers. Heck, if we were smart we just get some nametags - we're all friends, we just don't recognise each other.
I'll bring a roll of tags next year - or at least talk to Lance about this, since the Picnic is really his show. It's a no-brainer to hand them out when you get your attendance paperwork.
For the record, Linus has been my lifelong nickname. My real name is Ben but there are like 5 Bens here, and so far I've met 2 real Linus's in my life. If you yell "Linus", I'll turn around - so it works for me.
I'll make sure to bring this up to Lance & make a post about it next Spring.

Luckily I'm not easy to forget and it's worked out pretty well so far!
I am from the east coast and would have no idea who you are unless you are towing the e30 trailer along then I would be like " DING DING DING ..... Hey it's Mr. 325 !!! and that trailer is way cool, I want one now " and then of course I know the name well on here too

The name tags are a good idea. I still don't understand why 99% of people on forums don't sign a post with there real name. Maybe I'm too old.

picnic, it would be fun to be able to put a face to a name, at least for some of those who I wouldn't just visually recognise like you, Luke, Josh A, & Ed.
More I think about it, I really think it would be fun, we should make a plan to organize this for next year - you already know everyone, you just don't recognise them.
I'm in, - we should bring a roll of nametag stickers for next year - whadda think, Joe?
Anybody else want to play like me & Joe?
