Totally up to the job situation, if I find one (where I actually make some money and can get those days off) I'd say I'm in. I'm a HUGE maybe at this point.

I can bring an NES (a Toaster) and some extra controllers/zappers. I can bring some games for us to play as well. Unfortunately, I don't have any spare TVs to bring.

Sept. 11 is on a Sunday, so does that mean people are reserving Saturday night rooms, or Sunday night rooms? Or all weekend? HELP I AM CONFUSED!

Yooz guys (and girls) will have fun, no doubt. Indy is awesome and especially so, downtown. Beware.... Blasto may try to take you to Abbey's Coffeehouse for the Vegan cuisine, or better yet, the love I dare not speak it's name. Don't worry. They just closed it this year. Dead cow for everyone!

Also sign me up for cheap room. I'll talk with Kyle and see if he wants to share a room with me.


Sounds good, Leathco.  Won't we need a karaoke machine too, though?  I've never ran karaoke before, and every time I've participated I was always wayy too drunk to observe how to run such a contraption.

Whatever you can brink is much appreciated.  Thanks, Kevin.

Cool, thanks Smeagol.  I don't who Parpunk is, but it must be one badass arcade cab if you're luring him to Indy.

It was haha. Mario Brothers widebody project. Just the Mario brothers I'm looking for, price was good and needed work but not so much after putting money into it, it would have evened up to about the price they sell for on KLOV. I love to do the work though, and currently don't have any arcade projects going on. Alas he's a bit to far(east WV) and I think it sold.

As far as the brentalfloss karaoke, I wouldn't run a standard karaoke setup which usually uses a full PA system with either a laptop running MP3+G or a full on CD+G player. Just the brentalfloss karaoke CD with printed copies of all the lyrics for us to sing. The nice thing is that he also has G rated lyrics if we have to use those, since I'm not sure if screaming out "I've got a motherfucking gun for a hand" is a good idea in the hotel conference room if its easily heard in other areas.

My setup would just be a couple mics and a small amp with a CD player hooked up.

We compensate for the fact that the west is quite empty after St. Louis til you hit Vegas.

I just moved to the Maybe list.....long story short my wife has two accounts and swiped the wrong card for the wrong account, and we ended up with 5 overdraft fees in one of the accounts since it was supposed to come out of the other account. At 34 dollars a pop, that means her account was 170 dollars in the hole. I had to use my trip money to bring it back.....and not sure I can save up enough in time to go.

Craptastic.
