Tempest Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 September would be better for me but i agree with the Pitbull and Tempest you should decided on a date thats good for you buddy. Ok fine. What dates are out again? For me it's August 15th/16, August 29th/30th and probably the first week of September. So that leaves: July 25th/26th (would need to know ASAP though) August 1st/2nd September 12th/13th September 20th (can't do it on the 19th) September 26th/27th What works best?

Then we can play it by ear about heading to Tempest's place depending how long we spend at Pete's and such let me know what you guys think about this. That's basically what I was thinking. Meet up at Pete's, so the wives can play some pinball and we can play some games and get to know each other a bit. I figure after a couple hours at Pete's those of us that still want to hang for a while can head to Tempest's place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Sept. 12th/13th works for me as well, especially if you want to meet the soon to be Mrs. Any objections to the Sept 12/13th date? Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubledown Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Can't make it. My birthday is the 13th, and I've got friends coming in from out of town on the 12th for a big party. Don't change the date on my account though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My invitation must have gotten lost in the mail... We'll have to do something another time. You're a lot closer to me than most, so it's not a big problem.

doubledown Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Sorry, not "my" actual party. Annual party some friends have that happens to coincide with my birthday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jboypacman Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 The 12th it is! Wow we are actually going to do it this year this will be fun and if anyone has any trade stuffs they want to bring maybe we should throw up a list and that way if anyone is looking for something one of us might have it just a quick thought.

StoneAgeGamer Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hey guys I am not sure if I could show up, however I might have some free swag/merchandise to give away. Maybe merchandise could be raffled some way. Someone would just need to come pick it up, maybe whoever is elected head hancho of the get together.

Trade stuff is good. I'll have my stuff ready. We can do a mini-swap meet. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATARIPITBULL Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Well then I'm bringing a myster box containing a boxed 2600 game (WHAT GAME COULD IT BE???) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well then, I've got some 2600 commons "autographed" by the original owner that I'm sure he'll love! I'll have to dig something up that might actually have some trade value... even if it's not Atari related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricDeLee Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Can I come? What is 'Petes'? I saw this post while I was on the road Up North for a camping trip last week. Just got back today and knocked off all of the dirt and grime. If you want another member, I am pretty sure your date works with my schedule. It would be fun to meet you guys. I was thinking I could bring some Lynx items. I could bring EOTB for everyone to play (I know you already played it Tempest... but I'm sure others would like to play a little bit). Let me know!

I could bring EOTB for everyone to play (I know you already played it Tempest... but I'm sure others would like to play a little bit). Let me know! Hi Eric! I'm assuming they're talking about Pinball Pete's, presumably the one in East Lansing (I don't know if there's another one elsewhere anymore). I only skimmed this thread, having only just now seen it, so forgive me if it's not Pinball Pete's. I'm also not sure if it's an invitation-only kinda deal, but if any old Michiganite can show up, I'll pencil it in. I'm in Lansing, so East Lansing's in my back yard, practically. So yeah, if we're both "invited," I look forward to meeting you, Eric, as well as the rest of ya! Cheers, Smeg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No squares! Beat it! Anyone is welcome to come, but I think we're talking about Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor. I'm willing to drive to either so it makes no difference to me.

Atari Smeghead Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 So Pete's then my house? Sounds like a plan. Tempest After having recently seen the pictures of your place, witnessing it in person would be like going to Atari heaven! As for Pete's... honestly, I haven't been in EL proper in so long I had no idea if it was still even in business. That's good to hear, definitely. I spent a lot of my youth there. Cheers, Smeg Oh, I just read your post, Tempest. I had no idea there was one in Ann Arbor. I'll hafta Mapquest it. I wonder how it compares to EL...

EricDeLee Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Sweet... I think you can pencil me and my wife in. She doesn't frown on my hobby, so she is cool about things. I have no clue why we all haven't met yet. We do live rather close. lol And I believe I've traded/bought/sold from/with most of you. Sounds like a fun event! I'll have to dig through my trade stuff. I do have a around 250 loose 2600 games to unload if anyone wants them for cheap... (you'd save on shipping which is always a good thing!)
