  1. Can someone tell me if this is a good size box to ship CIB games? https://www.officedepot.com/a/products/547192/Office-Depot-Brand-Flat-Corrugated-Boxes/

      Go with 10x7x3

      You can do 9 x 7 x 3 and put the game in some bubble wrap inside the box and it'll be fine. I use 9x7x4 boxes, and I can put two games in bubble wrap in a box of that size no issues.

  2. I finished in 2nd place in division A in pinball playoffs last night. Won a trophy and $90.

      That sounds fun. I miss being able to go to an arcade and play pinballs.

      Only missed the last one, but did get lucky with an educated guess on courtroom drama.

      Y'all want people banned for disagreeing with you? How about ignore/man up options?

      Agree with deepthaw.

       

      And a more woke site would censure (not censor) CPUWIZ for his use of the R word.

  7. Why did mugshot thread get locked?

  8. Nobody's gonna buy Facebook Portal, right?

      I clicked through Amazon black friday deals and one of them was literally a wifi-enabled food processor. WTF would I need or want that for? Tech for tech's sake. I may go full-on technophobe in another 20-30 years and live in a cabin in the woods.

      They ran that story at least 40 years late, didn't they? At least according to the 1979 movie 'Tilt' that I suffered through last sunday.

      This may sound silly, but I think doing the exact same thing with a Brand New Cabinet (A TRON Recreation cab) would be cool!

    3. retrorandy

      retrorandy

      TRON is such a great and unique cabinet. I will say it's a very complete multi-cade and at least they kept the TRON look to it. I'm also always surprised by the prices charged on Ebay.

      It is a well known bug in the forum software that the view counters are not updated until there has been at least 1 reply to the thread, and then all the previous views will be included in the counter.

      Tried some Deadpool this weekend. Flippers seemed a little heavy/clunky. I dunno. Maybe just the one at the location.

      I've got Spectrum used to be Charter, used to be 3 other things...It's pretty good except when they try to sell me cable TV...I say I've got DISH and then they shut up knowing they'll never compete :)

  15. I didn't see anyone on here mentioning Syd Bolton passing away?

  16. Got a call this morning at 2:30 to check a firewall log. 20 minutes later they called back and said "nevermind they figured it out." Couldn't go back to sleep until after 4:30. **** you very much...

  17. On this date 35 years ago Mario Bros. was released to the arcades!
