Stunning.
 
So that's where you hang out now...

Ain't much activity here for a mover and shaker like myself. I could create, mod and participate in a forum all by myself and have more new posts and replies than this place gets. I need to branch out, this place has gotten stale.
 
I hate it when you're bitter... which seems to be all the time nowadays.

Nope. But I notice that really cool arcade related threads seem to die a quick death around here lately. Then when people wonder why, you always hear: "old timers, blank, blank and blank have all stopped posting/ coming here because they were offended by so and so." Or "a bunch of guys jumped ship and started their own forum because they didn't like the management here", etc. etc. etc. Then when a drama-filled, call out, pile-it-on thread is started, low and behold all those dudes that supposedly are gone or jumped ship all magically appear to fight, argue or degrade someone. Pathetic. The only one who left and stayed true to his word was Spaeth. I used to love this place, but now it's just a ghost town.

Happy Halloween!!

Sadly I agree. The move to pins has been very fun and pinside is the place to be for that.
 
Oh come on. The guys who moved over to the other site didn't all say they weren't coming here too. They just moved over there for the non-arcade related crapola that they like to talk about. A small handful of them said they wouldn't come back and some haven't. A lot of them (including myself) don't post hear nearly as much any more though. I was never a "mover and shaker". I just come here because I enjoy arcade games. I never made a conscious decision to post less here. But when a lot of people left, there was a big giant goatse sized hole that was left and it's just not fun any more. And a lot of my favorite people seem to have left the scene entirely. They aren't here. They aren't on AHA. They just went away. Maybe some day they will return.

Unless....

That is badass, I have always wanted to retheme a pin, I have a Dollly pin waiting for me but I cant bring it into the fray b/c its so hideous, then I heard about the Lost Vegas retheme with post apocaplyptic hookers which is awesome, but the wife might not let me have a Tit show in the basement, so maybe Ill have to retheme it myself... I have always wanted a Matrix themed game...hmm

Here is a link to the lost vegas package page for the Dolly conversion..

KLOV and Pinside are my forums of choice when it comes to talking arcade stuff. My decline in activity around here has had more to do with being slammed at work for the past several months than a lack of interest in the hobby or ill will towards the site's management. I like to think I'm cool with everybody and vice versa.

As far as the topic of this thread: that backglass is the shit! Love it!

And Phet, I officially hate you for getting a TFTC. That game is the bee's tits. Congrats!

I need more horror games in my house. I want a Scared Stiff sooooo bad.

Thanks brotha, and I wish I had your Monster Bash and BSD. I'll need to head down your way to play them soon. TFTC is pretty sweet though.
 
life gets pretty rough when you run out of "look at me" :D I'm on pinside too, just a different user name than here!
 
Hahahahaha! Jehuie will never admit it, but he knows that was funny.

Was not. I still haven't seen the video.

As far as pins, I don't have room or cash for very many. Plus I didn't grow up with them like I did vids. So the call isn't as strong. But I do kinda like those dark themed jobbers.
 

Like I said, you'll never admit it, but it was funny. If you ever find your way to Phoenix, you're more than welcome to return the favor. I've got a Major Havoc in a Tempest cabinet just waiting for your hindquarters. I deserve it.

Technically, I don't believe my supple ass ever touched the game. It just sort of dangled over the edge and had a peek at the gameplay, and I think the game enjoyed the view every bit as much as my ass admired the color vectory goodness that is Tempest.

Phet, hit me up the next time you're in Phoenix and we'll play some Monster Bash/BSD. I played some BSD when I got home from work last night, and it repeatedly kicked my ass. It's such an addictive game. The ruleset is very simple, but it's brutally difficult.
