GamerScoreBlog posted some pics chronicling the embarassing amount of time (from a media ethics perspective) the Joystiq crew spent on or near the Xbox 360 Blogger Bus. Did I say crew? Maybe it was just me eating those Peanut M&Ms. For the people who don't know who the hell we are, try to match names with faces. Here's a hint: I'm the good-looking one.

Does this mean we now know the face of the dreaded in-the-bathroom-picture-taker-person?!!?

I really like the black shirts. The other shirt is nice too, but the black ones look great.
Of course, I don't own a single black shirt, but whatever. :-)

Hmm, I'd say the guy kneeling down on the far right looks like the kind of person that'd be called Ken Weeks... No offence, btw. Am I right?!

Who's the spaz on the left in the front row?
I bet he has one of those big-button keyboards on his computer, right?

Oh and your all very pretty.

I know you folks are having a laugh over this ( i.e. your Ethical considerations)
But......
I think you need to consider the implications of the fact that it's true.

To balance the Joystiq karma demonstrated in the above photo, you will need to hire at least one person who smokes a pipe, wears a tuxedo after five PM and is often confused for Cary Grant. Driving a luxury car with a silent "n", "q" or "x" in the name and boasting a hood ornament large enough to choke a lama is preferred, but not required.
Other than that, great work at E3.

I don't think you need to worry, since they team only met up at the bus at the close of the show (except for Ken who was hanging out waiting for Shane Kim to do an interview). Besides, I hear you guys spent time at the Sony Blogger Workroom, and the Nintendo Podcaster Suite, right?
I actually agree, if you guys lose any objectivity, everyone suffers. So keep typing on your Macs, go on and rave about the Wii (some of us think it's pretty cool, too), and send our regards to Ken K while you spend hours drinking at the Sony party (heck, all you did is WORK during your bus flyby!). We'll send all the *real* love to the xbox360fanboy.com guys...

That's Randall "blog-sign" Bennet, C.K. "TUAW"'d Sample III, Chris Grant is the towering man on the right. The rest I don't know, unless that's Quang Nguyen to Chris's left.

Stripped shirt and sunglasses... I'm thinking Ross Miller... [pictured removed by Ross ... because it was ugly]
Only because I've seen him at a few Riverbend partes.

Aww, thanks Rein, but that's not Ken -- that's a-me! (but yeah, freecajunlove figured that out, first ... at a party in my college town ... whoa).

Final guess: (back row l to r) Ludwig, Adams, Ross, Jennie, James, Chris (front row l to r) Randall, Ken, C.K.
James is the only person I'm not sure of and I know Blake isn't in the picture. I think I did a pretty good job for only meeting C.K. in person.
