ARCADE PARTY NW Illinois Burbs -2011

[Zud]

If my wife wasn't about to give birth I'd seriously consider making the trip. We need to find a central locale in Wisconsin for the major Midwest gatherings.

Troy, can we have a party for all the people that cannot make it this weekend? I really enjoyed your games last year. I think Gatordad and I needed to get medical help after playing Atari Football.

Ya, football can be a workout. Usually you dont really feel the pain until the next day

I am in. See everyone on Sat.

Looks like the wife is working this weekend, but I am still in for heading down. Troy, I sent you a PM for the address.

What better place for her to give birth than an arcade?

I dunno bout the clean up on that....I do have a lake in the back yard for a water birth

All PM's replied to....

PS I have a WG 25" Medium Res tube with very little burn if any. Nice dark tube. Its in a frame, has yoke ect.....no chassis. $30

I also have another 25" monitor complete for $125. (im fairly certain it works, but I'll double check before Sat)

Ya, Chris Moore broke it...haha. Seriously though, it had a ram chip on the kit fail. Replaced it and good to go.

Ha, Chris did it huh?
Figures...... he didn't even know where the action button was on your Lost Tomb.

Had a great time at Troy's. Thank you for opening up your gameroom.

Highlight this year - watching Joe Magiera's reaction when everyone aimed all cannons at him while playing Rampart.

Unfortunately XO football was on injured reserve....

Got my fix of Warlords on an old smelly cab awaiting restoration.

So much for my perfect attendance record

Had a house full of teenagers last night, wouldn't have been able to make it anyway.

Damn!

Wish I coulda made it, next time hopefully.

Also adding my thanks to Troy for the party. Had a great time hanging out and getting to know a couple more people.

This was also hilarious. Contrary to what Joe thinks, I have never played Rampart before.

I just realized that I missed out. Maybe next time I will make it out. I was there last year and very impressed. I hope the new pool table is working out for you. I still have the overhead black light for it.

Pics or it didn't happen (or are they in another thread?)

 

[Takeman]

@Alejandromad Ya, know...I dont think there are any pics. Guess it didnt happen

@Monarch - pool table is working out nicely. Just the right size and it gets plenty of use.

Drats! I love the pictures because I can put a face with a name... or KLOV handle, as the case may be.

Oh well.
