Doing all CFI checkrides with the same examiner

So I did my CFI and CFII with the same DPE, and I'm also planning to do my MEI with the same person. Do you guys think it will ever matter to anybody, or should I go with another examiner for my final checkride?

If you like him why not. By now you should know his likes and dislikes.

I don't even remember the names of most of the examiners I took rides with. I'm not going to look them up either.
Do what you want. Its your money.

Just out of curiosity, has someone told you that it matters?
 
I've done 5 out of 6 ratings with the same examiner. As long as they're not just signing over a piece of paper when you hand them cash I don't see it as an issue. If they are handing over paper in exchange for money, you'll just be cheating yourself in the long run. If you find someone who treats you fair and you like them, go for it. Also, I have never once been asked who did my rides so I don't see it being a problem for you.
