As you guys know, MTMatt had a close encounter with a Victorinox Spirit's saw. Pioneers in the use of hand tools must often take risks, but this time it was a near thing. Fortunately, Matt will live to saw another day (once he gets his courage up.). Though his career as a hand model is now in doubt...... :cry:
(https://forum.multitool.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=81024.0;attach=441775;image)
Still, I think Matt has earned a new screen name or call sign. He's too humble to suggest the for himself, so I thought I'd pitch in and help with a group effort. Let's brainstorm this and pick out a new callsign for Matt. Something that will help serve as a reminder of his recent (mis)adventure and remember to use caution in the future.
Please vote for a new name for MTMatt. If you have a better name, and it gets a second by another member, I'll add it to the poll. Please also specify which name you are voting for. From the list of people who chose the winning name, I will select at random a person to win a prize (to be revealed later).
Let's run this re-naming contest for a while so we can get some good participation. I'll try to give 48 to 72 hours notice before ending the voting and closing the contest.
I've ticked the box that let's you change your vote, so there is no penalty to vote early and change your vote later if needed.

I was hoping to find "Stitchy" on the list... :(
But since it's not, I guess Stumpy will have to do...
-
:o

I hope that his doctor didn't say to use Ballistol...
Everyone knows that damaged Terminator skin covering repairs itself faster with groundnut oil.... Everything that the little biological nanobots need!

How would you feel about 'Stiches' as a screen name. I'd second that..... :D
"McStitches" or "McStitchy" might be even better..... can I get a someone to second one of those? :pok:
-
Oh, I should have mentioned:
If you vote for 'Rest, care, and love" (because you are no fun), say so! That may go to being entered in the final GAW. (which would be a pity...)
-

Would it be considered cheating if I second McStitchy? :dunno:.
-
Once upon a time I had an accident with a katana. My head was sewn on backwards which is a bit uncomfortable but now I don't have to look over my shoulder anymore.
Anyway, I'm voting for rest and love etc. If a cut would prompt a new screen name then most of us would be called Stitches.

I don't think so. In fact, I like that so much better than "Stumpy", that I'll take your second and replace "Stumpy" with "McStitchy". :tu:

Your reasoning is solid, Ron, but I feel we owe it to Matt to change his name.

I could not se the poll in Tapatalk but after going online I saw McStitchy and voted derby

Excellent idea :rofl: :rofl:

I've lost the ability to change my vote from "Matt Sawyer" to "McStitchy". :think:
I don't know if a mod has the ability to change my vote, but if so, please switch me from "Matt Sawyer" to "McStitchy". Thanks.

I can't change my vote either. :(
Possibly when the poll was edited, Everyone lost the ability to change vote?

Shoot.
Mods, is it possible to reset the "remove Vote" option? :think:

Not sure on a new name
But I give the idea a solid one thumbs up :tu:

Sure you can... there’s an option to see web view... just tap on the 3 dots (top right)... that’s if your on an iPhone...
-
Voted...
Although Stichy sounds nice...
-
Matt surely needs rest, care, and love(which he gets a lot, from this forum)...but I voted McStitchy myabe as a "call sign"?
-
I'm just imagining Matt being a little woozy from post surgery meds and seeing this thread. :facepalm:
:rofl:

Should be the same on Android but it just throws me right back in to "normal" Tapatalk mode.

I voted to leave the poor blighter alone to his morphine induced fantasies...

'McStitchy' has a tenuous lead....but it's a lead. :tu:
Well done guys. :salute:

Sorry it took me so long to find this poll... I'm surfing on half speed at the moment.
I'm thrilled you folks think that my pioneering efforts on finding new uses for the Vic Spirits back scratcher/horn file thingy is worth a honourable title to be given out :hatsoff:

How is your hand doing Matt
Hope you are healing well :tu:
-
Yeah, has it dropped off yet?
-
I'm on track I would say. The operation is a week ago and I'm doing careful but frequent exercises to get that thing moving again.
Still looks like this :dunno:
-
The swelling has gone down well :tu:
-
Yeah, has it dropped off yet?
It did that once somehow over night... but I put it back. It's ok :tu:

So what? No new avatar options in the poll?

Really, a new name due to an accident.
Having shared his mishap takes a bit courage, stand tall MTMatt.

This how call-signs are earned. >:D
So, yes, a new screen name is entirely warranted. :tu:
Don Pablo got a new name when he got placed into Witsec. So I don't want to hear any "hear, hear's" from that camp. :pok:
(https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/23262227?s=460&v=4)
The least we can do to honor Matt's sacrificial public service stunt is to award him a new name. Although I do see that 'McStitchy' is only ahead by a couple of votes at this point. So we'll let this run on until a more clear choice can be made. We don't want to take this too lightly...... :D

Ouch Matt! If you hate your thumbs so much why not just paint them lovely colour? No need to saw them off dude. Also, you didn't think too far ahead did you? Once the first thumb has been removed you'd have a near impossible task to remove the second one.
I'm glad you gave the task up before doing too much damage. :tu:
If you like I have a small selection of MTO inspired nail varnish colours you can borrow?
Voted for McStitchy, but would have liked Matt Stitchy more :D

Hey Matt I'm new hear and to the modding community in general. I'm about to put some scissors in my rebar and saw your post on yours from last year. I was wondering if you knew the dimensions of the small washer you need to buy when you take out the small screwdriver from that side? Thanks!

Hi pluman23, welcome to :MTO:
... to be honest I didn't measure it. I was experimenting with different sizes and just used the one that fit best :dunno:
I assume though that there are not too much different ones around with a hole that fits the Rebar pivot :hatsoff:
Most important thing... don't rush it and have fun :cheers:

A testimony to a heck of a saw that only takes one swipe to cut through the skin and a tendon leaving a notable scratch on the bone in the process.
