Bumping this up because there needs to be more active threads besides the cryptocurrency and Netflix threads.

I would suggest you bump another thread then, or better yet, start your own topic since you don't seem to approve of the others. Either you are going or you aren't.... unless someone makes a new decision this thread isn't going to get updated.

I would tell you more, but it will cost you one dogecoin.

I hope that HaRuMaN brings his custom-built Ms Pac-Man/Galaga cabaret to the show again. That thing was awesome and I want to check it out again.

Yes sir that is the plan. DWG is in at the CNC; JROK board, knocker, and minty fresh 13" CRT are in hand.

I am happy and sad at the same time!

Will the Q*bert be at ZapCon?

Two months away, morherscratchers!! I been working on some top secret projects!!!

Malenko · « **Reply #343 on:** February 26, 2018, 08:38:07 am »

So I don't start earning vacation days till I get my 90 days, which isn't till like May. However, I'm supposed to get 5 sick days on April 1st (that's when everyone gets them) so I just need to make sure its ok with the bigwigs to take a couple days off prior to my 90 without jeopardizing my jerb.

pbj · « **Reply #344 on:** February 26, 2018, 10:51:25 am »

Son, anytime you take a new job, you always tell them you have a vacation scheduled that you can't cancel. Nobody cares if you mention it up front.

Malenko · « **Reply #345 on:** February 26, 2018, 02:45:51 pm »

It was mentioned in passing, but it if was a deal breaker I wasn't gonna go to ZC, big pay bump is way more important.
I wont know for sure till end of March.

Okay, that's just unconscionable. I cannot abide making Slippy sad.

Everybody hates a tirekicker, so, sorry for the revision here.

I'll be there after all. NotThatJennifer, as well.

Two outta three ain't bad?

Physical badges are back on!!!!!

Mike A · « **Reply #352 on:** March 08, 2018, 08:20:57 am »

I didn't know physical badges were off the table at one point. Badges are the only reason I am going.

OK, time to fess up. We’ve been dealing with a major health crisis in my family for almost 6 months now, and to be honest, I just haven’t had time to do anything. If you notice, there hasn’t been a T-shirt thread or anything like that. I’m just not really feeling it. I’m super excited to meet some of you guys for the first time, but I just haven’t been up for everything else that comes with the show.

But to hear that Laythe and NotThatJennifer are coming? She lives for badge collecting. That’s jacked my enthusiasm levels up like 100 fold. Honestly, I’ve been in a funk and I could definitely use some excitement, so this definitely kicks things into gear.

Stay tuned!

Mike A · « **Reply #354 on:** March 08, 2018, 09:23:31 am »

No, it’s all good. I’m excited to meet some of you guys that I haven’t met for the first time! I sent you a PM by the way.

pbj · « **Reply #356 on:** March 08, 2018, 10:03:58 am »

Yeah, man, sorry to hear that as well. You seemed down lately. $:-\$

Mike A · « **Reply #357 on:** March 08, 2018, 10:15:16 am »

A PBJ sandwich at Zapcon would probably perk him up a bit.

wp34 · « **Reply #358 on:** March 08, 2018, 10:24:52 am »

Sorry to hear that Yots. I hope whatever your family is dealing with gets better quickly.

yotsuya · « **Reply #359 on:** March 08, 2018, 12:32:28 pm »

Thanks guys. My dad had a massive stroke on September 15, and we’ve been dealing with the aftermath of that. Sometimes when I’ve been posting, I’m sitting at the hospital just keeping him company.

The camaraderie around here is why I stay and it’s really helped me honestly through some of the tough times the past six months. The local collectors group here in Phoenix’s been good to me too.

Anyway, looking forward to running with all you guys!! Jim, buy your ---smurfing--- ticket, I got your pass and MikeA will let you spoon. You’re set!

Life’s too short to kick tires.
