first and foremost, it was truly great to be in the awesomeness that is cax and hang out with all my klov brothers. it was great to meet everyone, and so many people were so cool welcoming us, for my first time in california.

jow, you and angela rock. next year, if there's an nba jam(b) there, we gots to rock some out. i think the key next year is going stag, so as to free up sleeping time and whatnot. no offense to my lovely wife. oh, and thanx to angela for the mel gibson impersonations. chrissy needs to embody her energy so she can stay up, chill, and drink beers with us guys too.

andy, i had a ton of fun hanging out with you. hopefully you drink budweiser, as those 4 tall boys are yours, brother. thanks for the cooler space and the round of drinks. i'm gonna practice me some warlords for the specific reason of beating you at least one round's worth.

chris321098u4233453 squared, you're the man. you're a freakin grandpa and have twice the stamina i have. you need to put me on a workout and drinking regimen to get ready for next year. thanks again for the tips on my monitor issues.

todd, great to meet you, and talk, drink, and play games. one game of cabaret wizard of wor was not enough, for us, the warlords that didn't even get that far. i need to get a job in california or something so we can hang out more often.

brian (xx121), why the hell were you sleeping so much? i hardly got to talk to you, much less get schooled on super missile attack. but glad i finally met ya.

damon (avidgeek), you're a cool dude. i envy your position, being a total lifelong player and attachment to that that is the classic arcade lifestyle. i should've stayed up and had more drinks with you and santa dorfus.

dan (p1899m) we need to sit down for a drink or a game next year. i think i nodded at you 100 times walking by you in the halls in between games.

wendy, you are awesome. you are the klov mom. you are totally cool in person, and you are the same as i envisioned you. one of the nicest people i've ever met. there's always a varkon-less place in colorado if you want to rock our skiing out here.

taylor, i wish we had more time to hang out, and play games. you rock, and chrissy got along with your girlfriend great. next year, brother.

jeri ellsworth (who probably isn't on here), thanks for the awesome pacinator/joysticks arena style stick. there was nothing better than rocking the satan's hollow on that setup.

jim "dorfus" greenleaf, i'm still kicking myself for not falling asleep out with you and damon at the bar, instead of crashing in the hotel room. thanks for signing the awesome poster, and i should've played some satan's hollow with you on the above setup. you are the coolest movie person i've met, and i'm glad to have gotten to talk with you.

mark alpiger - i wanted to talk with you, but didn't want to get a sales speech for twin galaxies stuff. maybe a tip for next year?

and last, but certainly not least,

phet, you were namedropped so many times you'd think you were there partying with us. i know there were more important things, and hope that your cousin's daughter heals completely up, but hopefully next year, brother.

and finally, my pics.

Great pics man; thanks for sharing. All of the posts like yours make me realize how many cool people I missed getting in touch with. Hoping to make it more next year. In this photo: Francis (Nash) is cleaning up at $1 Warlords. Standing in the back is Chris (EndofLine), Dave (VectorInvadr), and myself.
 
WOW! It looks like you guys had an amazing time. Wish we could have been able to make it. :(
 
I was tired... Where were you, Sunday nite, for my Sea Wolf clinic? Hmmmm? 7600 pts. not too bad, high score for the day. Yeah, good to meet you and Chrissie:)

we left in the afternoon. you whipped me, though. i think the best score i put on the sea wolf was 4500.
 
oh, and i forgot. santa dorfus, if you come to my house, i expect to see some arcade games get stuffed down my chimney.

Santa Dorfus scared me... he kept asking me to sit in his lap so he could tell me if I was a good girl or not :eek:

Great pics Jim!! It was great meeting you and Chrissy... you have a year to train her to drink and stay up late... ;)
 
Jawhn now feels all self-conscious for not being mentioned in Jim's shout-outs... Sigh.

Was cool meeting you and Chrissy, and mega-thanks again for the lift! ;) Oh, and hey, look who even changed their signature to add more guilt, lol.

(And it's an awesome quote)
