I’m oddly excited for a TMNT De Puta Madre shirt. Can’t wait to wear it to work!  >:D

I am actually shocked at how good they came out.  Screen printer is a fellow hobbyist and he was into the idea.  I've got the transparency for burning more screens...

Nice...
You could build your own silkscreen at home, if you didn't want to invest in a press. Silkscreens are really easy (and cheap!) to make, and you can do one off t-shirt prints if bulk isn't your goal.

According to Google, the Phoenix goth industrial scene is even worse than it is in Houston. Perturbator is playing there this Saturday, he's worth seeing.

I don't even own an arcade related shirt.  When I recently bought my Defender and picked it up in Phoenix the guy came walking out of the house with an Asteroids shirt on and I thought ok this dude is on a completely different level than I am...lol.

I think I'm signed up to volunteer which was also supposed to get a person into contributor night.  But they haven't communicated a single thing about volunteer details.  I guess next year I'll just buy a ticket I don't like it being a week away and having no clue if they have a pass for me or not or when/where/how I get it.

You could probably sneak in, but can you stay in? There are very few people there on Friday, which makes it awesome. The locals all know each other in Phoenix, so the few outsiders are obvious. Wes stops me every year.  :lol

My best advice, be sure to hit up new Pinball machines and crowd pleaser games on Friday. Everything gets busier as time goes on. By Sunday lines are forming around a lot of the machines, which means you will either be hogging a single machine to keep playing, or jumping on anything you see open up. Also, at least in past years, a batch of pinball machines get earmarked for tournaments, meaning Friday will be the only chance to play them outside of a tournament.

They do the same ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- here with pinball machines.  The interesting ones are sequestered in the tournament area.

Oh yeah, some of the best get pulled away for the tournament. They will all be in a corner at least, so it will be obvious what to be sure to play on Friday.

So any of you guys doing the tournaments?  I'm happy to see the Cyberball tourney back this year, and I'll most likely compete again. There's also the Random Fighters Tournament, which is great because you get to play vastly different fighting games at random and it can be pretty hilarious. No mention of other fighting tourneys though, like last year there was an SSF2T and Third Strike tournament. But I don't think that was announced till after zapcon started.

Also, last year there was a big Galaga tourney. That was pretty epic.

I'm interested to hear about the Starfighters Arcade High Score Challenge on Sunday morning.

Cool finally got an email with the volunteer details.  Looks like I'll be working at the door on Sunday.  Funny I didn't even tell her I used to moonlight as a bouncer years ago. :)
