Ed didn't say Ninja Assassins, he said Ninja ********.

Yes and vice versa...you can use funspot tokens in the turnpike machines

xonix_digital ...where are you from?

ROFL! I'm not kidding, I *thought* I saw a bunch them laying on the ground at the turnpike booths...hahaha. I wasn't sure, thought I might have been hallucinating. I bet it's YOU Ed. Btw, you must have some pretty bad aim, there was about 10 of them that missed the bucket.

I lived in portsmouth, nh for like a year and a half. Now I live in Boston. I actually picked up my first cabinet (Galaga) in Exeter for $350.00.

Please tell me it works and looks pretty good to boot.

xonix_digital · « **Reply #255 on:** June 19, 2005, 02:55:52 am »

ok here it is:

After a bit of research I can say that it started out as a galaxian machine. it was transformed into a galaga machine, and it was done really really well. It has a "gallag" board in it that work flawlessly (with the orig. namco romset). no galaga side art but the galaxian sideart was covered up with spraypaint (ugh). also a "gallag" instruction card in english (which is really quite rare) was taped to the monitor bezel.
All worked well enough with a little powersupply adjustment until one gloomy day when I left it on and the monitor died. I still have a lot of work to do on it but those few months that it worked perfectly are well worth the months Ive put into diagnosing it.
I have since bought an original Galaga joystick to put in it and I am going to get a new UR CP from Mike's.

I overdrew my account to buy it too

- XD

ps. original marquee is flawless!

crashwg · « **Reply #256 on:** July 23, 2005, 12:32:39 pm »

So when's the next meet? I vote for August 20th!

Ed ONeill · « **Reply #257 on:** July 24, 2005, 11:37:43 am »

JoyMonkey · « **Reply #258 on:** July 25, 2005, 07:25:51 am »

August is going to be busy as hell for me so I don't think I can make this one

mr.Curmudgeon · « **Reply #259 on:** July 25, 2005, 04:30:26 pm »

So JM you're out the whole month of August?

Anyhow, I say we pick two (or so) dates and vote on 'em. The date that has the most attendees is the meetup.

I'm up for any time, my weekends are usually flexible. I'll leave the second date suggestion to somebody else.

Yeah, pretty much. I'm either helping people move, moving myself, being forced to play golf or going for training. I do have to go for some training in NH one weekend, maybe by some amazing coincidence it'll be the same weekend and somewhere close to Laconia.

RecycledPast · « **Reply #261 on:** July 26, 2005, 03:46:08 pm »

How about the 13th or the 20th? Now we have two dates.

I've got to go to NH on the 14th anyways so that might work out quite nice for me but the 20th will probably work also unless I choose to celebrate my wife's big Three-O that day.

Is it better to celebrate a birthday the weekend before or after the birthday?

Celebrating it before just makes the actual day of kinda' depressing, like it's all over already. Celebrating it the weekend after makes the whole week prior feel a little more special, because you have something to look forward too. That's my take on it.

Teknique · « **Reply #263 on:** July 29, 2005, 06:26:38 am »

Im up there for the entire week between those dates so both work here those I may be playing paintball on the 13th at a local place.

Ed ONeill · « **Reply #264 on:** July 29, 2005, 10:49:43 am »

I am DJing both the 13 & 14th ...so that weekend is out for me

However I will be on vacation from Aug 18th to the 27th/28th ....so the only dates I can do is the 20th or 27th ....sorry

Thanks
Ed

RecycledPast · « **Reply #265 on:** August 01, 2005, 10:30:17 am »

So it looks like Saturday Aug 20th is the date.

mr.Curmudgeon · « **Reply #266 on:** August 01, 2005, 11:41:24 am »

Ok. Aug. 20th.

Did we want to try to organize something different this time? Bar-B-Q at a lake? Boating? BYOAC Kayaking Trip? Hanging around a campfire drinking?

I know Ed and Teknique both have access to a boat of some sort. What are our options? I don't mind organizing an inner-tube river float (day-trip), or something, if the weather is nice.

Any other suggestions?

fiscap · « **Reply #267 on:** August 08, 2005, 06:28:45 pm »

I live in the Portsmouth area and I'm a newcomer to the forum and BYOAC in general, but I'd be up for meeting some other forum members if you all would allow me to join in the fun.

You are certainly welcome. Keep an eye on this thread for the latest info.

So is the 20th the final decision for the date? That's next weekend... I think we need to get a list going of who's comming and decide exactly what it is we're doing pretty soon!

I'd assume we're still going to funspot, we are a bunch of arcade nerds after all right? I've got the coupons taken care of, which for those who don't know gives you 50 free tokens with the purchase of $20 worth. Anyone else can feel free to bring some also just in case something happens but what that could posibly be I don't know, the coupons are already in Lee-Ann's purse!

Ed, you're place open for buisness? Are we going to do some stuff on the lake as was suggested? If we do so will we be going back to your place for the usual steak tips and alcoholic beverages?

C'MON PEOPLE...
WE NEED TO MAKE SOME DEFINITIVE PLANS!

JoyMonkey · « **Reply #270 on:** August 14, 2005, 12:03:23 am »

Sorry to say I'm officially out this time. We moved into our new place in Salem last weekend, have all kinds of crap going on this weekend, and really need next weekend to arrange some un-packing. We're going up to somebodys timeshare on Winnipesaukee the following weekend though, but on the other side of the lake.

Ed ONeill · « **Reply #271 on:** August 14, 2005, 10:47:47 am »

The 20th is the date I sugeested ...We can do what ever you guys want .I am up for anything

Who's coming ?

Are you suggesting that a little thing like Lake Winnipesaukee would keep you from a night of video games, liquer and the entertaining bunch that we, the NE BYOAC group, are?

We haven't set the date in stone yet so if you're up to the 27th, speek up now or forever hold your peace.

And to those who oppose the 27th, feel free to speek up now also. I for one would like to give everyone a fair chance to join in on the festivities.

JoyMonkey · « **Reply #273 on:** August 15, 2005, 08:01:29 am »

No, I can't do the 20th or the 27th. Just too much stuff going on lately. It breaks my heart

Ed ONeill · « **Reply #274 on:** August 15, 2005, 08:58:11 am »

Less than a week to go ..please check in and let me know if your coming

crashwg · « **Reply #275 on:** August 15, 2005, 05:09:27 pm »

All right then. Paul's out. The date is the 20th then unless there is anyone else who'd object...

Like Ed said, time to check in!

Myself and my GF (Lee-Ann) are comming and hopefully the little one will have a babysitter.

#1Chad · « **Reply #276 on:** August 15, 2005, 08:16:01 pm »

Count me in too!

SirPeale · « **Reply #277 on:** August 15, 2005, 08:41:29 pm »

Not I. We have *no* spare money, the van needs an exhast, and a bunch of other things that contribute to my no-show.

fiscap · « **Reply #278 on:** August 15, 2005, 09:26:54 pm »

If it's less than 1-2 hour drive from Portsmouth - I'm in.
