Yeah, its 6 months out. But seems to me they announced the dates roughly 3 months out last year, so we should perhaps expect dates by March...

Of course, for me, last year was a disaster - getting really ill just before the show. Otherwise, I wouldn't have missed it for anything.

The day they announce the dates, I'm buying my ticket and getting my hotel. Very excited to see you guys again, and play some good games.

So, who is planning on going, who it a maybe, who knows they won't be going, etc? Time to start working up the KLOV sign in sheet.

As for what I'd like to see there this year, I'd like to see an Elevator Action, Bagman, Tutankham, some Exidy Shooters, Zoo Keeper, and an Eagle. I know Eagle isn't that exciting, but its one of the very first arcade games I ever played. Seems they are fairly rare.

Anyway, who is going, who is not, etc.:

Going:

yep, I'll be there this year. I have not been since 2007 and I already told the wife I'm going.
Last year I was in Ireland during CAX so there was no way I was able to go. :)

i'd love to make the run down with FullThrottle someday but i don't think there's room for me in the cab between him and his freakishly huge dog.

i'll just have to settle for the NWPGRS (the "Seattle show") in June.
 
Yeah I will be there.
Last year there was no qbert.
I had 2, now I have none. I was gonna offer bringing one.

hey, that was my toobin and it did not have a shit pic! Maybe needed an adjustment, but the colors were good and low burn.. Anyways, it won't be back.. I sold it.

Maybe your think about the wacko? The monitor freaked out and was doing retrace lines...
 
These CAX threads are beginning to be like retail stores and Christmas. Seems they keep coming earlier every year.

I think the 2009 CAX thread was started roughly the same time.

Edit to add: I started a "check in" thread on March 9, 2009, but also started two "its getting close" type CAX threads in January and February 2009.

Consider this thread as the one to cover it all. :D

Count me in! Last year was my first time going and it made me wish I had known about it before I got into the hobby. It's just so much fun. I only went 1 day and it was well worth it. LD row (courtesy of acejedi), Nintendo rows (PO/AW courtesy of acejedi), Williams row, pinball rows, rows, rows, rows. Meeting other KLOVers is definitely a highlight as well. The only bad things were the temporary power outage to half the hall and the fact that some games I was looking forward to playing were out of service or not there (720, Paperboy, SMBMK pinball, Radarscope, etc.) I would say it is mandatory for all west coast KLOV members to go. :)
 
What kind of a goal is that? I plan to get more drunk this year.

i think it was all of the vodka that did it.
i remember saturday night i went to my van for something and i walked through the show about 11 and i was trying to pull of my "im not drunk walk" really thought i was going to get tossed out that time through LOL
