The only thing I would suggest is we wander around like nomads, hit up the "Big three" Strip arcades (Luxor, New York New York, Scary clown place/adverture dome), and maybe stop at that one place on trop that is gettin Gameland's Neo*Geo machines

Screw it.

I went broke after finding out that GL's beatmaniaIIDX went to a vendor at the Circus Circus.

Damn

Just as I was about to edit my post back to what it should've been. I found 10 bux I was saving back when I was unemployed.

oh well. GVR for me then!

- Edit -

Yes, they fixed it. They bought a new screen. how's that for a fix?

sorry, folks -- i was away from the computer for the last 24 hrs, and i'd planned on taking care of some stuff around the house today (especially since we haven't really got a place to go (not one we've decided on, anyway) now that gameland's closed).

my availability on 5/14, 5/15, and 5/16 is kind of up in the air right now. my sister's boyfriend and i might fly to chicago for a day or two that weekend to go clubbing with a good friend of hoteiya las vegas -- we just learned that she's getting divorced and, even tho' we won't be attending Anime Central (which is in chicago that weekend), we thought it'd be nice to try to fly there briefly to hang out with her, go drinking & dancing, and just try to lift her spirits a bit.

we should all try to figure out what location(s) we want to use for semi-regular get-togethers (i like george's suggestion to hit the "big 3" -- at least for one sunday -- we could probably fit most of the sunday crowd in my car, just to save on gas), and make well-in-advance plans for a stateline roadtrip.

There's an away from the computer now? Man, I gotta start working at places where there aren't computers everywhere.

Have fun! Sunday should be free for everyone no? I hope your friend gets through the divorce fine.

I know the NYNY kind of blows, even if you do like games like DDR. The machines are maintained terribly there(pad greats! Noo!). I'm more interested in what's going on at the excalibur.

- edit -

Quick question. I remember NeoTheranthrope mentioning something about the place where GameLand's old Neos will go. Why not hit that up?

umm what is going on? I am bored of staying in my house, during the weekend, strangely I hang out with my friends more during the week then the weekend...and my FFXI addiction is still going strong so it has to be a good place to go to.

uh duh,

Actually, scratch my days off... management once again didn't grant my requests. Hell I'll have to switch so I can go to my interview on Thursday. >.<

Here I thought I put in enough time in advance to get my time off.. apparently not. But if you guys do a road trip give me at least a month's advance... or when I get my new job. (If I say -if- I get a new job then I won't get it! XD)

Crappage!

How about we all just throw our schedules out a month in advance? I know my availability will change ni about 2 or 3 weeks when I actually hit the floor...

But until then, I have weekends off.

...and speaking of schedules: I just got a new full-time job working fora Terrible Herbest gas station on Cheyenne and Teneya. I'm working wed-sun, gaveyard shift 10p-6am~ish. My days off are gonna be mon and tues. I can do things on sat/sun as long as it's generally between 3p and 9p. The above may change on short notice due to the store being massively understaffed at this time (i already got a couple of O/T hours and the manager is talking about putting me on double shifts for swing and grave, yeeee~ :crying: ).

New fulltime job = more money for Anime and games (YaaaaY!)

but less time to watch it (boooo!)

BTW: I'm gonna go get the pictures devloped for the final Gameland lock-in tonight. I'll post as soon as I'm able.

Hi all. This thread is so old/big I can't really tell what's going on, so sorry if I'm missing an already planned get together.

I just wanted to pop in here because I'm going to be in town May 30th through June 4th, and I wanted to see if anyone wants to get together?

Domino already told me in chat, and your thread shows as well, that your local arcade closed down :( Is there anywhere else to meet, someones house maybe?

Just let me know if you all want to do anything, unfortunatly all of the days I'm going to be in town are weekdays. I know it's short notice, but I figured I would give it a shot :)

Big American Party?

Well, If I (not to mention the other members of the squad) can arrange it, I'll see if we can set up some time to all get together at my place for a big american pool party/BBQ. it won't be easy, but I can try.

On a separate note, how the hell did I make it into two pics on this site?

I'll bug him about it. Sounds like a good idea. Cook some burgers or something, get some drinks and I can bring over my PS2 for SVC Chaos action if anyone wanted to play.

Weekdays are always bad for me. Monday I have plans with my Grandparents and family. Sunday will be the best day for me, for gaming that is. When do you land? I was thinking to have a get together start around 1'ish and end about 9'ish. One of my best friend is also coming to town that weekend and he is really into Samurai Shodown. What ever is best for you. If the get together falls through give me a call. PM me and I will give you my cell number.

I figured weekdays wouldn't be too good for most people :(

Unfortunatly hotel rooms are cheaper on weekdays, that's why I'm going to be there during the week ;)

Fortunatly though I arrive in Vegas at 10:30 in the morning. Which means I might be able to make it. This is sort of a mini-family reunion though, so I have to check with everyone else and see what the plans are. Not sure if my wife will like me running off on our first day there and leaving her with the family :)

I'll drop you a PM and get your contact info. If nothing else maybe we can do something for a couple of hours during the week if that's all we can find time for.

I'll be able to make it on the 30th but I turn into a pumpkin at 9pm due to my work schedule (the bastards had me workin' a 55 hour week, on top of classes and my other job)
