SoCal Shmupmeet Saturday, August 30th

[blackoak]

You guys are fucking killing me here! Ahhhhh and CMoon's beer too... I can bear no more of this thread. /goodbye cruel worldwidewebz

[alamone]

Seriously guys, sounds epic. Norcal people should organize a carpool next time!

[CMoon]

That carpool is a great idea. Don't forget Mesh is up there too (honestly, someone in the area should just kidnap him and bring him down here so that kid can have some fun.)

[mikehaggar]

Aargh.....I've been so busy with work...I am gonna make it out to this no matter what, but don't have time to cook anything proper. I will however be stopping by my favorite Mexican market and bring some legit chips and salsa.

I will also bring my capturing equipment that is capable of making high quality superplays of any pcb play from a cab/supergun. People can leave Frenetic's place with a DVD of their play to enjoy! Hope you guys are practiced!

Lastly, I will bring Daimakaimura, TGM3, and Gamshara. Me and Necro can demonstrate what it means to be badasses at this last one.

I know its last minute, but it looks like I'm in!

I'll be bringing Wyvern Wings. It'll be there for the first half of the day since I'm not staying the entire day.

I will also be bringing plastic spoon/forks and plates.

And still on the fence about coming along is my wife Sylvia.

See ya around noon.

Quick question: Hudson Shooting Watch? Is there going to be one there?

Hector

[Frenetic]

Hey Hector,

Yup, I've got a Hudson Shooting Watch. Let's all have some competitors!

I never posted my game list because I was not certain about going until last minute. So far Wyvern Wings is comming.

The list is obnoxiously long but if you have the time to look through and see any MUST play titles I'll bring them if I get the message on time.

Frenetic,

Thanks for hosting, I had a great time. Sorry I had to take off early. I hope everyone enjoyed the saltado & aji. Looking forward to all the pictures that were taken.

[Kaire]

Frenetic, Amazing meet! I wish I could have stayed longer but I had to run the arcade tonight ; _ ;
I can't wait to see all you guys again~ Have another beer for me!

[Softdrink 117]

What an awesome day.

Great meet Frenetic, thanks so much for hosting. Met a bunch of new people, got some good (and not so good) scores, tried some cool new games, and overall had a fantastic time. Good beer too!

[Tyranix95]

Hey, Great party F!

You can totally count me in for the next one. /

I heard Mike 1CC'd Ghouls tonight.

[AKRATEN]

Thanks for hosting one of your biggest meets yet! We may need to rent a warehouse next! Should be tons of photos to this one thanks to our war photojournalist!

[CMoon]

Had a great time; can't wait for the next one!

Love the warehouse idea..its too bad that one room really turns into a hotbox and I imagine that's only gonna get worse over the summer.

I know you guys liked the big beers, but next time 'round I gotta bring some more session ales. I think I'm bringing your high scores down

[japtor]

Thanks for hosting, that was pretty fun. I also now feel incredibly inadequate at Ketsui and Strikers 1999 now, but at least I got a not so bad Ketsui run in. And hearing it on those speakers in the Net City has gotten me looking into upgrading my Astro's speakers, luckily seems like that'll be a simple cheap fix.

Should be tons of photos to this one thanks to our war photojournalist!

Frank West was there?!

[mikehaggar]

Had a really great time...thanks for hosting Frenetic!

There was so much good food, beer, and games that I could hardly contain myself! So many of us have some pretty cool setups....we should try to throw events like this at least once a month and maybe switch off whose place we hold it at. The potluck idea is so key....great job everybody!

[jepjepjep]

I had a great time yesterday. Great games, great food, great company, and some awesome homebrew!

[mikehaggar]

Frenetic,

Thanks for hosting, I had a great time. Sorry I had to take off early. I hope everyone enjoyed the saltado & aji. Looking forward to all the pictures that were taken.

I forgive you for leaving early, but the people that were terrorized by Hachimoto will never ever let you live this down.

Oh wait, they're dead!

[Neo G-Tron]

Thank you for welcoming us all over to your awesome place Frenetic. I had an amazing time and met some really cool people there. Great people, Shmups galore, bomb food and fine home made brew. A perfect setup for a great meetup !!!

[mikehaggar]

WE WANT PICS!

[Neo G-Tron]

I will second that. We need to see them pics !! I'm dying to see the group picture that we all took together at the end of the great meet ...

[Softdrink 117]

A new SoCal Shmupmeet date appears! Space is limited we're having other non forum people over, so please RSVP with the potluck item you are bringing. Latecomers will be put on a waiting list, sorry my wife and I have moved into a smaller house so there isn't as much room as the last place.

Cheers!
