Gregory DG Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Like last year, I'm putting together a page in the 2005 Compendium that covers dates of shows for the year. Is it me, or do dates seem hard to come by this year? Anyway, here are the dates, websites, and locations I have so far. If you can give me a date for a show or think I should add a show please let me know: (These are sorted by dates.) Gamer's Nite Groove game.newyork-tokyo.com Every third Thursday New York, NY The Video Game Show www.thevideogameshow.com August Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Northwest CG Expo www.nwcge.org May Seattle, WA Midwest Gaming Classic www.midwestgamingclassic.com May Milwaukee, WI Video Game Summit avc.atari-users.net/Events/FestVGS.html July 16 Lombard, IL Austin Gaming Expo www.austingamingexpo.com July Austin, TX Classic Gaming Expo www.cgexpo.com August 21, 22 Burlingame, CA East Coast Gaming Expo www.ecgx.com September Reading, PA PhillyClassic www.phillyclassic.com Fall (October?)

Bruce Tomlin Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Austin Gaming Expowww.austingamingexpo.com July Austin, TX Did the page even get updated at all last year? Hey Albert, I'd love for you to run it again. I'd even be willing to help out a bit if that would help it happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 PhillyClassicwww.phillyclassic.com Fall (October?) Philadephia, PA Cinciclassic www.cinciclassic.com October Cincinati, OH Man, I hope that these both don't end up being held in October. I am hoping to make Cinci this year if it is indeed happening.

Gregory DG Posted January 8, 2005 Author Share Posted January 8, 2005 when is your deadline? we are still working on NWCGE dates and location. January 25 is probably the absolute latest. I will need to get approval from Atari and that could take a few days. Release day is February 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will probably will not have dates for AGE2 by January 25th, but after last year's absence of a show we are definitely planning something for this year. The website will be updated soon. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted January 9, 2005 Author Share Posted January 9, 2005 I will need to get approval from Atari and that could take a few days. Approval from Atari? Cafepress.com won't allow the use of company names for the products they produce (especially since the title of the book is, "The ATARI Times.") So I send the final .pdf to Atari and a few days later they fax me an approval letter which I send to Cafepress.com. I could probably do it anyway, but it's better to be safe than have them come down on me later about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Iacovelli Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 you are still getting heat from Cafepress.com about "Atari"? Man Ihate that they gave me heat with jagfest issues. I agrued my point them saying that Idid contact atari but got no response then I stated that my club has been in contcat with the orginal atari since '89 and had no troubles with them since then ,about 2 weeks after that the AVC news stand was open. any ways: for the url for VGS'05 please use http://avc.atari-users.net/Events/FestVGS.html (I noticed you left out the "http://" part of it) and thanks for inculding VGS in the listings. (I have no idea about MGC'05 at least until I hear back from Dan loosen) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted January 20, 2005 Author Share Posted January 20, 2005 Any news on show dates? So far the only firm dates I have are for CGE (Aug. 21, 22) and VGS (July 16.) I can wait for dates up until Jan. 31. If I don't get a firm date, I'll try to make a guess on the month based on a prior show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
