Avidgeek took those pics and won't bee there this year.
Someone will have to carry on for him.
There was a lot of unwarranted drama over those pics that got the thread locked or deleted,I don't quite remember which.

I think you should have a cigar lit and be blowing smoke rings into the air for the pic.
And blow the pic up and plant it in the middle of the front lawn.
I came across this M1A thread from last year and thought it was pretty humorous. http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=142890&highlight=women+cax
Here is the "offending thread". http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=95895

Damon and I were just talking about the "women of CAX 2011 edition the other day. We both agreed it'll be interesting to see if anyone will keep it going, and the responses thereafter....LOL craziness abound.
There was no women of CAX 2010 because of all the lunacy. Last year I did my special edition of the Men of CAX 2010. Most people were very eager to participate, and several followed me around so they could participate over and over and over!!
Argh. I hate finding a cool thread like this so late in teh game.
(My supervisor at work yelled at me a week ago about KLOV, apparently they've been tracking my usage for a while... Sigh. )
I think I see what M1A was trying to do. "Be" someone else with his comment. If so, lol/winning!
I'll try to get some pictures of girls at CAX. Assuming I am coherent enough to be standing, and able to operate a camera.
I found the best damn shirt ever. I will be wearing this for the Saturday photo...

You need some enterprising photoshopper to change it to JAWHNSOME...then it would be the perfect avatar.
I actually like the "Jawesome" moniker. And I tried making it my avatar right after I found it, but the 100x100 pixel limit made it way too small, pretty much unreadable if you hadn't seen the original...

somebody get me a scan or pic of the handouts. I guess the k7000 sticky made it in there somehow or another.
so, just wondering if anyone's had any further thoughts on the saturday photo time? scott evans (atariscott) is doing an atari tv commercial panel at 3, and there's a documentary about hank chien called dr kong at 2:30, so i was thinking,
does 2PM work for everyone? if not, that's all good. i'm just thinking a good time between speakers and stuff that people might be interested in. here's a list of the speakers from the cax website...
Video Game Tips and Tricks 10:45 AM
Mark Alpiger, Franz Lanzinger, Jonathan Koolpe
Mark Alpiger (King of Kong fame) will host the "Tips and Trick" panel once again. Learn from some of the masters of the classics including the skills and/or tricks they use to achieve their high scores, and maybe improve your own skills. Games that may be discussed include Atari's classics Food Fight and Xevious, and the William's classic Bubbles.
Birkball 11:30 AM
John Birk
Birkball is a game that uses chutes to propel and aim steel balls into a target ball. Two teams simultaneously try to knock the target ball into the opposing team's goal. Unlike pinball, players reach into the game to grab steel balls. The presentation will focus on the rules of play, player styles, history of the game, the opportunity to bring the game into companies, and the World Championship, which is scheduled for March 3, 2012.
Shoot the Core: A design history of 2D space shooters 12 Noon
Jim Whitehead, Professor and Chair of Computer Science at the University of California, Santa Cruz
From its beginnings with Space Invaders through to recent titles such as Mushihime-sama Futari, 2d space shooters (or shmups) have followed an arc from the height of their popularity to its current status as a marginal game genre. This talk provides an overview of the evolution of shmups, and then explores different ways the genre reacted to the challenge of the 2D to 3D transition. Notable shmups will be demonstrated.
Jim Whitehead has led the formation of the computer game design major at UC Santa Cruz, where he is Chair of Computer Science. Jim is the founder and president of the Society for the Advancement of the Science of Digital Games, which runs the yearly Foundations of Digital Games conference.
Laserdisc Player Replacement 1 PM
Matt Ownby, Warren Ondras
Laserdisc games hit the arcade scene in the early 80's and blew some of us away. Unfortunately, the laserdisc technology proved highly prone to failure in arcade environments and laserdisc games disappeared as quickly as they had appeared. Today, attempting to get games such as Firefox working are nearly impossible due to the scarcity of working players. All of that is about to change.
In 1999, Matt Ownby, a professional software developer and laserdisc game fanatic, created the first version of the Daphne emulator. Today, he and Warren Ondras have been tirelessly working to provide a modern hardware replacement to every laserdisc player known to have been used in an arcade game. Matt will talk about this new laserdisc replacement project including how the Daphne project influenced its creation, and then give a live demonstration of the first prototype (using a Dragon's Lair cabinet).
The Visual 6502 Project 2 PM
Greg James
The Visual 6502 Project aims to capture and preserve accurate models of early microprocessors and computer technology. Working directly from hardware artifacts, the team dissects, photographs, and models each component in order to create bit-accurate simulations and visual demonstrations of the hardware's inner workings. Their interactive programmable web-based simulations at www.visual6502.org have enabled better emulation, understanding, and appreciation of classic computer and game systems. The team is actively working on more than 100 historic computer chips.
Greg James began the Visual 6502 project in the summer of 2009, in part because the chips inside his Atari 2600 were getting hard to find. He works as a software engineer in San Francisco for the film industry, has a degree in Physics, worked for eight years in the semiconductor industry, helped maintain a megawatt laser at Stanford, and was an intern for the Getty Museum. He loves putting things together just as much as taking them apart, and was very happy to learn about acids that can take microchips apart.
Doctor Kong: Cutting Up the Competition 2:30 PM
Screening of Alexis Neophytides short documentary.
Blood, boobs and video games in a feel-good comedy!
The film follows New York plastic surgeon Hank Chien's year-long journey as he challenges the Donkey Kong world record. Dr. Chien's successful crowning as 2010 champion makes the Guinness Book of Records amid media and fan explosion. The classic gaming world scores high points with this affectionate homage.
Atari Filmfest 3 PM
Scott Evans
Scott has put together an unrivaled collection of commercials, shorts, and broadcasts from the glory days. Relive the pinnacle days in terms of fashion and hair styles, all cast through the point of view of the arcade in this informal review.
Game Show Game Show 4 PM
Dan Amrich, Greg Dunlap, Dave Hallock, Bowen Kerins, Gene Lewin, Todd MacCulloch, Owen Rubin, Graham West and a cast of thousands (of escaped lunatics)
The Arcade Trivia Contest continues to evolve as Game Show Game Show - the ultimate test of your knowledge of pinball, video games, and the poor taste of pop culture!
This year features the return of the laugh along Match Game with a celebrity panel, and the premier of Win Gene Lewin's Money - your chance to go up against a top rank arcade trivia expert!
We'll round out the initial part of the show with a 1 vs. 100 type game. Winners from all these games, 10 in total, will qualify for the fast finger round in:
Who Wants to Win an Arcade Game hosted by Dave Hallock
An awesomely realistic recreation of a popular game show with full audience participation via Wi-Fi! Bring your smart phone or any Wi-Fi enabled device with a web browser, and you can log into the network and vote on every question as we play!! 10 players will begin by competing against each other with answer keypads, and one-by-one, the players with the fastest fingers will play a 15 question trivia game for the chance to win a 4-player Simpsons arcade game. With each correct answer, many other prizes can also be won. Using 3 lifelines, the players will be able to see the audience's Wi-Fi voting results, phone an expert for help from a list of notables who will be waiting for our call, or eliminate 2 of the 3 wrong answer choices. Complete music and dynamic lighting effects make this a must-see!

2PM works. Meet where?
We usually meet in the courtyard. It is easy to find! Plus you'll see all the people in t-shirts that say KLOV on them
Bring a dog leash, wear it, and let Josie control where you go. Then you'll get there!
