I am the KING or QUEEN of. . . .

I have 50 or 60 untested or dead monitors on shelves and I have been to guy"s places that have a lot more than that. It would have to be a huge number to be king of that one.

Yeah, I have probably 25-35 monitors (tubes and all) on the shelves, another 10-15 tubes only, and about 50-70 chassis - and I know I'm probably not the king - unless you are talking about repairing them. But then I'm probably still not the King. Maybe a Prince, or perhaps the "Artist formerly known as..."
 
Number of Methcabs I have = 1. I doubt there is another but I could be wrong. The crown will pass to another one day.
 
I'm probably the King of Crazy Kong :D Here's what I got:
5 PCB's (one on loan, but a clone "Donkey King" should be here this week)
4 marquees (all different, 2 match the artwork on the dedicated cab)
1 control panel (from the dedicated cab)
1 manual
1 power supply/harness/controls (from a conversion cab that was stripped and used for something else. Board from that one is the one loaned out)
Flyer from Nintendo from the early 80's asking to report illegal Crazy Kong machines (just had to buy that one when I saw it ;) )
Ironically, I don't actually have a CK cab. Missed one of the Falcon woodgrain cabs locally that was on CL then ebay. Didn't find out about it until after it was sold.
 
I'll go ahead and claim another title...I am the king of 6 player X-Men. I don't think there's anybody else on the forum that has talked about the game as much whenever a thread pops up on the subject or if it's mentioned in passing. I've answered questions on how the game comes apart, measurements of the pieces, talked about repairing the sound problem, repaired 2 of my boards with the sound problem, scanned some artwork, and scanned the manual. I also removed part of a wall in the house to get the thing moved downstairs. That's dedication (or insanity) :D

you might also be the king of bootleg dkjr boards too, since you have all mine now. :)
 
I am fairly sure that I am the king of broken WG K7000 chassis. At last count I have 82 sitting on the shelves. I have a lot of other monitor chassis as well, but no more than a dozen or so of any particular model...

I'm stumped. What is a Methcab?

I am the king of classic NOS parts. Approx 50,000 pieces - from screws to molded plastic pieces.

I really didnt want to get into screws/nuts/bolts. If everyone went that tedious Id probably be here for years listing KINGS of Most nuts, bolts, screws, etc in every size. I could allow it if it was non universal and specifically made for a specific game or make of a few games. Do you have any 1 thing specific you could be proud enough to claim KING to? If not, I'll just post KING of Most Arcade Parts For Sale. <- if they indeed are for sale items. Im just trying to be as specific as possible and less broad.

I'll fix them all for $50 each plus parts... :D

yes but this year is cake right? You know since for some reason cake didn't make it to the last show.

I can't imagine cake working out too well in the luggage department :rolleyes: unless you like crumbs!! Cookies are portable and easy to manage for a trip... so I seriously doubt I will be the QUEEN of cake this year!
