If you could meet a game designer in person who would it be?

Anything that is gaming related that doesn't fit well anywhere else

I would like to meet Suda51, his games are so experimental and different he must have a solid understanding of what makes games fun and how the design works. Would love to pick his brains for a bit, plus he seems like a character

I'd be very interested in meeting Shinji Mikami, Naotoshi Zin, Daisuke Ishiwatari, and Hidetaka Miyazaki.

I've already met Yoshinori Ono an' Daisuke Ishiwatari. There really aren't any game designers I'd like to meet...

Well, aside from Hiromichi Tanaka, who I'd love to knock the (屮゚Д゚)屮 out! Five across the eyes, seriously.

Ralph Baer, because to be honest, everyone else owes him. Maybe Ken Levine for creating one of the most diverse FPS series in a long time.

I'd want to meet John Carmack. I wouldn't want to meet any Japanese guys, since I wouldn't understand anything they'd say.

Kazunori Yamauchi. I could talk to that guy for hours and not even get to the subject of games.

It's a tough choice between John Carmack, Eugene Jarvis, or Yu Suzuki (Why the hell haven't the latter been mentioned?).
