Why is Chocky getting so narky lately?? 18-Nov-2008 At 2:43:56 PM Capt_mulch

Now, back to the ODZ thing. What narks me about ODZ is that I don't mind us slagging each other off publicly, as long as you know who is doing it (and so wallwombat can carry out his threat to punch someone in the head next time he sees them at the crag). See? Everything then has checks and balances. Feel free to slag someone off as long as you are willing to take the consequences. What ODZ has done is assume the persona of Damien Jovanovic, a Canberra climber. It was (according to Damo) a joke carried out on him when he was going to Araps once, and ODZ set up a Chocky login under Damo's name and advertised for a female who could 'cook and belay'. Prolly quite funny at the time. Since then, ODZ has maintained the persona and uses it to snipe at people anonymously. Damo has since told me that ODZ is 'an older Canberra climber whose photo is in the ACT Granite Guide'. OK, here's the list, who wants to play eliminations?

People appearing in the ACT Granite Guide:
Justing Ryan
Cameron O'Neill
Chris Larque
John Smart
Peter Mills
Peter Morris
Rod Young
Andrew Bull
Tony Barten
Mike Peck
Jamie Valdivia
Mike Law-Smith
Gordon Poultney
Joe Friend
Paul Daniel
Dave Jenkins
Damien Jones
Ray Lassman
Richard Watts
Adam Blizzard
George Fieg
Dave McGregor
Robyn Cleland
Mark Leonard
Ken Luck
John Carlson
John Finnigan
Simon Carter
Jonathon Edwards
Ed Garnett
Steve Chey
Peter Sands

To start with I know it's not M L-S as he hates forums, not Jamie Valdivia is he is a decent chap, and highly unlikely Simon Carter.
