Just out of curiosity, are there any women arcade builders besides me? It's funny to read some of the guys talking about how "cool" their wives are because they are accepting of the arcade project. Well I'm actually building the arcade so does that make the the world's coolest wife? Someone tell my husband...

I gotta say, you're the first I've seen posting here (that has openly said they were female, at least), but then, I've only been here for a month or so-maybe one of the old timers has more insight.
Either way, welcome aboard-and good luck on convincing your husband-the spouse battle seems to be a never ending one, no matter which side of the gender line you sit on (this is one of those times when being divorced is considered a benefit-not that I'm saying you should be, but it works for me :laugh2:)

Hi JollyRogers! Welcome aboard.
atari2600chick pops in once in a while and has a project thread you might want to look at.

We'll tell your husband how cool you are, but we'll leave it to you to exaplain where all the money went! ;)
Make sure to post pics of your progress in the Projects thread.
And welcome aboard. ...

She just put a label on herself. Now she's not a member, she's the female member.
She was probably better off before.

Don't forget about June and her awesome Jukebox :)

Thats because the toilet is clogged, flushing it will only make things worse.

Shut the ---fudgesicle--- up PDB! You were saying mccoy? :-*

Telling PDB to shut the wench up isn't going to make this poor girl want to stick around.

She's already posting in EE ... I don't think a little harsh language from PDB is going to scare her off...
Jolly -- welcome !
Cheers.

Hey Jolly, welcome aboard!
Just fair warning:
Male to Female Ratio: 67.4:1
With that said, there are 9516 members. If people put down their gender correctly that means that there are 9375 males and 141 females.
Watch out for the stampede :laugh2:

Oh, don't you worry about me. I've worked on construction sites!
Glad to hear there are some other ladies around. It's amazing how much fun my girlfriends miss out on because they don't like games or computers.
Actually, my husband got me started with my video game addiction. He talked me into playing Doom before we were married and I've been hooked ever since.
He wasn't excited about the arcade idea at first, but now that he's played around with my prototype control panel, he's getting more into it.Hey Jolly, welcome aboard!

Thanks! Obviously I like being the center of attention or I wouldn't have brought it up. >:D

So, where's the project announcement post? ;D
-
Yep, we need some pics of that Control Panel...... ;D
Welcome aboard!

What has the world of Internet forums come to when it takes 23 posts for someone to ask a girl for pics.....
..... and even then ... the pics are of a control panel.
I'm horribly disappointed in all of you.

Oh great, another married chick. :banghead: :(
Drew lied when he said I could score in this place. :soapbox:

Sorry to hear that man...

Let's see:
A guy whose opening line is "Hi, I'm Harry Potter" believed a guy whose opening line is "Hi, I'm DrewKaree" that he could get laid here.

You mean "control panel" isn't a euphamism?

I don't see what pics of my wallet are going to prove.
