Thanks Dan(p1899m) for the Rocklin Arcade Party 05/21/11 !!

Just wanted to put out a special thanks out to Dan for putting on the Arcade Party last Saturday 05/21/11 in Rocklin, CA. He's got a really nice collection, he has more of an Arcade with a kitchen instead of a house with a game room!! Warlords CT was really fun, I could see some wagers going on that one....

What was the outcome of high score comp? I could only get in the low 8K range on The End and in the 60k range on Pepper II. I cut out at about 10PM - had a long day ++++beers++++, next time I'll be better rested up for a longer session.

It was great to meet a few fellow collectors & old school enthusiasts. Fun times were had including Tron Guy's tips on playing Tron (of course) and thanks to Paul for the hook-up on DK Jr!

I can't remember everyone's name, but hope to see you all at CAX again in a couple months. There were people from Reno, Sacramento area and Tracy - nice to know more collectors within driving distance!

We should all try to keep in touch - I need a lot of help with figuring out some of my projects and always looking for new stuff to buy & trade.

Thanks again Dan - look forward to more in the future!!

No problem. I enjoy hosting these parties it's just usually a challenge to find the time to put them on. In the end Dylan beat out Mike's score on "The End" and Erik had the high score on pepper II. Erik really didn't want to win a prize since he's my roommate so his prize will go to Mike for 2nd place on The End. I gotta meet up with Dylan to get him his pac board back so I'll get him his prize then. And when I see Mike again I'll give him his. I started drinking and basically forgot to give the prizes out but they were $25 gift cards to home depot which I figured would be good to buy something for a restore.
 
Nice Housecade!

Good choice on the absinthe. I noticed some big ass bottles of some other licorice flavored drinks. Good stuff. Jager, absinthe and sambuca. Those are my usual choice of drinks and I rarely see anyone else with the same tase in drinks.

I've never seen pics of your house before. What do you do, just sleep between the games somewhere? Your house is crammed with them. Cool!
 
wow I just saw this thread for the first time.

A huge thanks to Dan I always enjoy hanging out with him and it was a bonus to get to see all the rest of you guys as well.

great time for sure
