Yeah for people that weren't there -- my vert cab's monitor is not working. Totally caught me by surprise as it was fine just a few days ago.
I have negligible experience servicing these things so it'll be a learning experience! Builds character.

Hey guys, it's been waaaay too long since I've done one of these. Are people free some Saturday in June? Let's say the 8th, though I can bump it later if it works better.

Most of you probably need my current address too so hit me up for that if so.

I had to quadruple-check my schedule to make sure my plans didn't conflict.
I'm definitely in!

What time do you want people by? Should I bring anything? I'd be cool with the stuff you've got already mind you. GUNSTAR HEROEEES~

Any time after 11 is cool!

Bring whatever you feel like playing, but I have plenty too so we're covered regardless.

Is Space Bomber your fave shmup? Because I just learned it literally has a playable T-block from Tetris that has a drill.

I know I've talked to some of you about this but I keep forgetting to post. Are people free this weekend for some mask-based shmupping? Happy to bump the date to fit schedules etc so please post to confirm it works for you.

Are these happening anymore? I'm a shmup fan from Peterborough and was wanting to know if anything in ON happens anymore :)

They will happen at some point but this dang virus is ruining everything.

There will probably be neets in Toronto and Guelph also.

Would be nice to meet a new person!

Public meets are not dead. They're just on hiatus, cause videogames isn't really worth dying of COVID-19. Once immunization rates pick up and like everyone's had their doses, it'll be more realistic to start hosting them. I miss shmupping with everyone. :(

There'll be more of these again eventually. ;)

Sure you do ;) Lol, I work full time, trying hard to get weekends off so I can start playing in Melee tournaments and focus on things I want to do.

Okay, I figured as such. I've met a couple of the old school shmup players a long time ago in Toronto, as I was a friend of Drakon's (before everything went down).
I specifically know I've met SFKhoa and a few of his friends, but this was around 10 years ago, and playing on a supergun of Ketsui on a sideways CRT TV :P
