Sorry I didn't make it. I totally missed this thread all week, and Kalan called me and left me a message on Friday, but I was occupied with kids all weekend. I hope to make the next one - your gatherings are always fun. Glad it was a hit and sounds like there was bonus time! Nice.

Sounds cool Todd, I'm thinking of doing a later start time in the future, say mebbe 7pm and going later into the night, as I've noticed most people don't show up until 7-8pm anyways... I had them end early to not push the envelope with my wife, but she seems cool with it going later into the evening and a later start allows me to do more family stuff in the day.

... There is indeed a world order in Rampart ...

Hey, did someone just say RAMPART?

Just wondering, cause there's a WORLD of difference between the between the 2-Player Stick boards and 3-Player Ball boards.

Thanks for all the hospitality Tom. Playing your cherry condition games was definitely a pleasure. Loved the Smash TV and afterburner cockpit. Till the next one....

Any time man I'm glad ya had a good time and hope you can make it out to our next gaming session! If you play thru SmashTV, I can always switch it to total carnage
AfterBurner Deluxe was very involved to get fully working and beautified..I sometimes wondered whether or not it was worth the effort or space, heh. Anyways, now that its done, I'm always thrilled when someone asks to play it
