gameflex: I would be there in a heartbeat if you had VOOT. Sorry but I can't take a bus all the way there unless you have my favorite game. I love the neo and its my fave system ever but I just cant find a ride!

hey snake I live in tampa too! you wanna come over and play some games?

In addition to neo geo I am really into virtual on. I am ranked in tournament as the #4 player in the united states in VOOT for arcade as well as DC.

maybe we could start some sort of regular get together huh?

anyone else in tampa?

Hi, this is Erik from Gameflexx again. Thanks for your responses. Hope to see most of you there. Make sure you spread the word. As for MIKO, yes he is involved. He has been helping us promote the event and will be supplying much of the hardware and software we will be using. He has been very helpful. Keep posting everyone!!!

He's an old time guy from DHP.... the neo-geo mailing list. I've been on it like 7 years, and Billy like 5 or 6. We consider it old school, though it SUCKS now. Anyway, he goes by "Retrogamer" or something like that.

I need to know how to get down there, all the info. Is their a website or can you e-mail info?
