No - I planned to take the whole day, but the wife had other plans, so I didn't get a chance to go. However, I'll definitely stop by this summer next time I'm in town and mention you. I HAVE to play the EDOT!

No problem - maybe next time, or if another show pops up in upstate NY...

Bluevolume,

  Its not the same guy as in medely.

 
 Fantasy Raceways is at   3787 Dewey Ave.

 If you were to turn off west ridge rd onto dewey,  and take it down till you see a
wegmans.   Just a little past that on the opposite side of the road.   You cant miss
it - as he has a zillion Neon signs EVERYWHERE!  heh.    I cant imagine his power
bills  >.<
 
 
 Sorry to hear you couldnt make it there Havok.   I just went today and fired up a
few games  :)    Always great to play a working Race Drivin...  as there is no
way to experience that game without the real controls.   And Monaco GP,  that
game is just pure coolness.  Such a shame that its not been simulated/emulated.

 He had just replaced the monitor in his Sea Wolf and was showing it off to me.
Hes very good about keeping his games maintained and working properly.
 
(with exception to pins...  but, now he has a vendor supply his pins, so they are
in much better shape :)  )

 At the Show:
 
 I bought a boatload of old leaf buttons for 10 cents each :)   Mostly for the
leafs themselves,  as backups.   Also the same for Leaf joys.  Though, it might be
possible to bring at least 2 of them back to playable status with some work.

 Got a decent trackball for $10.  Has some wear, but should be able to restore it..
and really couldnt beat the price :)

 Was cool to finally have a good deal of pinball parts in this year.   However,  the only thing
I needed this time wasnt available.

 I probably should have bought the cheap $100 cab for a mame turnover project.  Ahh well.

 
 Lots of fun playing the Guns and Roses.  My first time on that machine.. and it was Rockin!  ;D

 Great to see the local collectors bring their top notch pieces again.  G&R, Midevil Madness,
Indiana Jones, and there was even the rare Bing Bang Bar.  (Which I was able to play after the
tournament :)  )  and much more.

 It was a good year for sellers.  As I saw a LOT of games sold and moved out.  (including one
I sold ).   I heard they also sold a ton of games on Friday as well.   Too bad I didnt show up till
sat..  as I am curious to know what else was came in.

 
Rocky:
I enjoyed playing the games.  It seemed like quite a few had issues, though.  I put the high score on Crazy Climber and the Phoenix cocktail.

That's me playing the Shrek pinball.  ;D  It was the only time I played it.... long line.
