Hey Guys, Over the past couple months I've received about 10-15 messages from people in my area that are interested in building a cabinet. I've had several people come to my house and check out and play my machines and get tips on starting their own cabinets. I've been looking for a Dallas / Fort Worth area BYOAC/MAME/Digital Pinball/Emulation Usergroup, but I haven't had much luck in finding an existing one... I'm thinking about creating such a group. This group would be a group that would meet face to face on a monthly or bi-monthly basis. The object of this group is to get people with like hobbies together in the real world. We could sit and BS about games and emulation. We could also offer help to new people that are looking to get started in this hobby. Share resources and teach people how to compile and use MAME and various front end systems. Meetings would be located at what few local arcades are still around. I don't know of many arcades that are still around, but Tornado Terry's, in Keller, is about 2 miles from my house and would be a great place to meet. They have a meeting/party room, Free Wi-fi, plenty of arcade games on free play all you can play all day for 12.50 per person. Not to mention he has many commonly used arcade parts for sale in his shop. I was wondering if anyone here knows of such a group, or would be interested in joining such a club/usergroup. If I can drum up some interest I'll pull the trigger and setup a meetup.com page where we can organize such events. Anyone interested? You can now Join this group on Facebook! |

Hey Dazz, good idea. I'll be interested to see what comes of it for us DFW types. :) |

I actually bought both my trackballs from Tornado Terry's, he's not too far from me. I'd be interested. Heading to the facebook page now. |

I'm definitely in. Just let me know where and when. I am anti-facebook though. Is that going to be a problem? |
