The 16th? That's my birthday! We can do it that day, but yall have to bring gifts.

Good for me!

Me too...

NY_in_TX · « **Reply #44 on:** June 29, 2005, 10:26:13 am »

sounds like it's taking shape for the 16th.

So let me get this straight. A bunch of grown men are gonna go to arcade for a birthday party.

All is right with the world

I say we take up a kitty for Alan and his brother, if he comes, and buy them lunch.

Thanks.

If Alan can't come, then I will accept his KITTY as long as it is Nannuu's version of KITTY

NY_in_TX · « **Reply #51 on:** June 30, 2005, 12:46:22 am »

Oh don't worry I knew you were twins.

We're nice people, but if it weren't your bro's birthday too he'd be buying his own lunch.

AlanS17 · « **Reply #52 on:** June 30, 2005, 02:28:38 pm »

Well if I know my brother, he's too lazy to travel more than 30 minutes without a great reason. Plus his girlfriend might want to do something special with him. So even if I can go, don't expect him to.

Nannuu · « **Reply #53 on:** June 30, 2005, 03:46:18 pm »

Oh, auction dates are August 13th, then October 15, then December 10th.
Eeeeeexcellent.

Whatever I don't sell locally (and manage to complete) will hit the auctions. So ya'll will get second chances at it all. I'm not crossin gmy fingers, though.

Nannuu · « **Reply #55 on:** June 30, 2005, 04:10:10 pm »

Well if you both don't come how are we to know if it isn't your bros that shows up and is just trying to sell us stuff?

AlanS17 · « **Reply #56 on:** July 01, 2005, 11:04:43 am »

You'd know it's him because he won't know what he's talking about.

(But you didn't hear that from me.)

Don't worry, I've met Alan so I know what he looks like... wait... that won't work

monkeybomb · « **Reply #58 on:** July 05, 2005, 02:01:51 pm »

This sound like fun, can someone give me a ride?

AlanS17 · « **Reply #59 on:** July 05, 2005, 02:03:35 pm »

Well I just found out today that my mom bought a plane ticket to come see me on my birthday. I guess that means I won't be joining ya'll after all. If you can schedule for another day, that's great. If you can't, that's still ok. I'm sure this won't be the last one. Most of us will probably end up at the auction, anyways.

picasso · « **Reply #60 on:** July 05, 2005, 04:05:13 pm »

I am new and would be interested. I live in Trophy Club. Anyone live close to there? August is better for me but, do what works! Babes or Chipoltle are great! I did not know about the arcade! I am going to have to check it out!

Hey! I know this doesn't belong here but, how come I can't reply in the buy sell trade catagory? Someone has some cabinets etc and I want to ask a question!

AlanS17 · « **Reply #61 on:** July 05, 2005, 04:08:54 pm »

First of all, I think you need 6 posts on your post count to put anything in the B/S/T forums. It's a safeguard. Second, are you looking for me?

picasso · « **Reply #62 on:** July 05, 2005, 04:17:22 pm »

Actually yes! Just a quick question. I noticed you had a cab w/27" monitor. Just wanted to see if you still had it. You think it would work for MAME??? Thanks.....

Are we definitely on for July 16?

NY_in_TX · « **Reply #65 on:** July 07, 2005, 09:43:42 am »

Sounds like July 16th is the date.

Chipolte's and Terry's?

one of these days we'll have to do it up at Gameworks.... I think they'll give us a partyhat since it's Alan's birthday.

I down for whatever since we nailed down a date. It's either that or we wait until after the auction, but then we'll all be broke.

BTW dibs on any empty Star Wars Cabs.

xcalibur · « **Reply #66 on:** July 07, 2005, 09:49:49 am »

July 26th is a Tuesday...

you realize that, right? If it then, I have to work and will be unable to attend. Saturdays work better for me. $:-\$

NY_in_TX · « **Reply #67 on:** July 07, 2005, 10:14:16 am »

Xcal...er I have no idea...errr what you are...err talking about

okay, fixed the date...sorry. fatfingered the 2..dangit

16th is the date.

slayj · « **Reply #68 on:** July 07, 2005, 10:19:49 am »

Gameworks is a good idea too. What time are we getting together?

AlanS17 · « **Reply #69 on:** July 07, 2005, 10:22:22 am »

I've heard Gameworks is really neat, but I've never been there. One of these days...

xcalibur · « **Reply #70 on:** July 07, 2005, 10:51:34 am »

Gameworks is awesome, but you'd spend way more than the $10 you'd spend at Terry's.

The playing time to money spent ratio is in Terry's favor. I'm putting together a pie chart to illustrate my point. I'll be inter-officing them to you in a bit.

Aint that the truth!!!

NY_in_TX · « **Reply #72 on:** July 07, 2005, 11:15:26 am »

I agree. Plus we said Terry's from the start. I like supporting one of the last local arcades around here.

So let's say

11AM at Chipolte's on pipeline near NorthEast Mall.

noonish we'll head over to Terry's for $10 all you play.

any requests for topics of conversation, examples, visual aids, etc.

Coolest things I have in possesion now are the new trans buttons (green and clear) and some leland sticks I just picked up. seeing the green could help decide if you wanted em, I wanted green any shade so I didn't care.

xcalibur · « **Reply #73 on:** July 07, 2005, 11:18:40 am »

Ooohhh Green translucent buttons?!??!
They would go great with my Translucent green USB trackball and Green LED cannons!!!
Do the green trans buttons come with lights? How much are they? Where to get them.

If you want to defer any and all button-related questions until then, i completely understand.

Well, well, well... look what a little search came up with

ignore my previous post.

slayj · « **Reply #75 on:** July 07, 2005, 11:28:48 am »

I believe there are a bunch of noobs, including me, that will be coming. Since we dont know anybody how will we know who is who? I'll where my BYOAC t-shirt............... Do we have a head count?

xcalibur · « **Reply #76 on:** July 07, 2005, 11:32:40 am »

I dunno... I kinda look like my avatar

NY_in_TX · « **Reply #77 on:** July 07, 2005, 11:36:57 am »

I'll be there and I think Nannu and Haghore, so we'll know each other. I'll be wearing a yankee hat or jersee (shudup Xcalibur)

so find one find em all, and there will be no one at that chipoltes that early so just walk up and ask if they are with BYOAC.

yeah X those are the buttons, except I got em from shawnzilla. $2 from him

I 've got the green Tball too, gonna do this next one up kryptonite style!
