I wonder sometimes. - Now I have to try and get my friend to come along so I can do the bar crawl afterwards. Since I will need a "Designated Driver" in order to participate...

+jedimatt42 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Regarding the faire, It was great to meet numerous Atariage'ers in person. Adding faces and personalities to aliases and avatars and seeing the interests of each of you was great fun. -M@ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Also, at the Faire, --edit-- Vorticon, --edit-- Tursi and I got roped into speaking about the FinalGROM99 on the video stream... That was unprepared... and of course, the real details are over here: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/260917-the-finalgrom-99/?p=3668917 -M@ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteE Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Just finished watching the videos on ustream, thanks for recording those and putting them online! I really enjoyed the presentations, and seeing the kids playing Interceptor and the TI-controlled robot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinphaltimus Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I'm Home safe - GREAT TIME! - 12 hour drive wow. OK, next year. - Have some pics and stuff but only a few hours left before I have to go to sleep and leave town again for 6 more days. So when I get back, but in the meantime.... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Speaking of the ustream... that stuff is short lived? I ripped it all Sunday after I got home. But I never got the name of the guy that was posting/running the AV. I'd love to shove that all back up on youtube, but I'd want to ask first. Anyone know who that is that I should ask? -M@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+OLD CS1 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Jon and I have been talking for the past couple of years about alternate ways to get the videos out. Vid.me looks feasible, and I think changes in YouTube over the past (compared to the problems he had at one time) may make it another viable option. Supposedly he is going to join here soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 The day after the Faire I made a trip down to Brookfield to the Galloping Ghost Arcade. We should all check it out next year. Over 500 arcade games spanning the decades. My biggest complaint is many of the ones I wanted to play, like Tron and Choplifter, have marginally functional joysticks which make them difficult to play, if at all. Hopefully they will be fixed next time around. There are three pinball machines there, only two of which were running. They have candy and drinks but no food. There is a Chinese restaurant next door and I recommend staying away from the diner across the street. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
