Ok I Think Its About That Time Now *My Official Arcade Gathering* 7/16/11

[dj dns]

The Space Ace & Dragons Lair will most likely be for sale now. I will have to move these back out the gameroom after tomorrows little gathering. I haven't been on the forum all day because I'm still working on clearing out my basement and also been running around making my little arcade trades.

* Whoever is coming pm me if you need my address. I just took a small break to see what was going on real quick. Amazing how much you can get done in a day when you dont live on here like me.

I retail my DLs for 5 dollars, so I might spill on that. Oh and whirlwind pinballs are $10, so I might end up spilling on that to... Is that cool withya Darryl?


All jokes aside, see ya all tomorrow.

I still have to convince my wife but I know she wants that Q*Bert! I'll let you know ASAP. Thanks for hosting.

Glad you had fun and met some new people including myself. Also want to say thanks for you donation and other for chipping in on the pizza (you didn't have to do that). I think it was a good turn out for my first one. I know a few other text me that was stuck in traffic on I95 turned around. I had fun see everyone again and handing over a Brand New 19" monitor to the raffle winner Mike Roma that DogP picked out of the coin box. I was pretty shocked, but he deserves it. He helped me out all day today from 7am this morning. I guess thats what good karma will do for you. Here are a few pics I took earlier in the day.

Had a great time. Thanks Darryl.

Thanks again, Darryl. It was definitely worth the 3.5+ hr. drive (thanks to I-95 traffic) to be there. For those who don't know me already, I'm the nerd in photo #4 of the first pic post (playing Wild Western) and #2 (playing Mad Planets) in the second set of pics (black shirt, tan shorts, white socks/shoes.)

You have a great collection. Thanks for sharing.

Looks like a fun day, wish I could of made it down!

Great party today Darryl... I succeeded in my goal of playing all the games that I never played prior to playing the ones that I own or have played before, which was quite a few. I kept going back to Reactor, have a desire for a Whirlwind pin now, and didn't have a clue what I was doing on the Qubes (multi). Great fun all around.

Thanks for the raffle and thanks to DogP for picking the right name . The brand new monitor will look great in my MW Defender.

Long day for me too... I'm off to bed.

Thanks for the fun Time.

I found out just a little while ago you have the Asteroids multigame kit in your Asteroids Deluxe. I thought I heard Lunar Lander. Now I need to get a Asteroids cab so I can have Lunar Lander Also.

 

[DogP]

Thanks for putting on the party... I had a great time, and you've got a great collection!

Great party, loads of fun, the raffle was a nice touch. Get some rest now. It was great to see how happy your son was when he came down and the games were on! Maybe you can come and see my collection soon! Sorry I left early but I had to pick up two more games!

 

[tcleary]

thanks for putting this on. I had never played zeke's peak before so enjoyed checking that game out. I always enjoy giving marble madness a go too, still can't get past the third stage though. I wonder if there are any settings to make that game easier. it's brutal.

Hey , i would love to come over , if anyone can work a chip to hyperspace me from Aust , to there ,, game on ! . I like Wild Western , Push down rotary fire , odd inertia feel , crude 3d attempt , odd coin toss shoot bonus level , would love to buy it , is it a sit down cocktail ? , money a bit scarce right now , hope you have a cool evening , Rock on !

Yeah, that multi-game chip is pretty awesome. I had a lot of fun playing LL yesterday (and then switching it back to AD to mess with people's heads.)

I'm sorry I missed out on all the fun & meetin up with all the mid Atlantic folks. Maybe next time.

 

[Wick]

Sorry I missed it and missed out on some awesome gaming! I will be at the next one. I got stuck behind an accident on 95 and made the mistake of taking route 1 which was even worse, after over 2.5 hours in the car I had to bail because I left my wife with 2 kids(1 was sick, now both are) and no back up.

[Pinball Wizard]

Yeah 95 traffic was horrible! But still worth it, thanks again Darryl.

Thanks for all that did come and break my games in for me. Also thanks for those that attempted to come and didn't make it. I'll probably have one more, but be a little more organized this time. I had so much stuff going on that week along with trying to get all the parts off the floors in my basement. Glad I did it though. I will also make sure the movie room is clear this time and have parts and games out for sale like I originally wanted to do. I got home from picking up games around 11:15am and my party started at 12. That tells you how much time I was working with. I had fun though and I have a clean basement until tomorrow.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Darryl don't worry about how organized it was this time, we all had fun and that it the important part.
