Saw you guys haven't logged in in over a month, hope you're doing well and we can do another one of these eventually.

Yeah, I'm still around, just haven't checked in here in quite a while.

Probably need to get some kind of meet going later on.

I just moved near KC and wouldn't mind doing a meet up after COVID. I have a ton of PCBs I could bring and am activly looking for a candy cab to buy in the area, but nothing yet!

Good luck finding a candy cab in the area, I never see them pop up for sale. I bought mine from Matsu long ago (is he still around?)

Is there anyone in central Kansas that does CRT repair/modding? I have an old Zenith that won't turn on, although it does have an RGB-capable OSD chip, so it would be great if I could get that repaired and/or modded.

No, Matsu. He's based somewhere in Southern California IIRC.

Long time no update!

Tbh I stopped checking these forums around COVID just because of, well, everything going on but yes, the rest of the gatherings I had planned were cancelled due to the pandemic - but I think I'm ready to host again :)

Since the last gathering I hosted, I've moved to a new location near Raytown (still in KC proper) with a much larger space in the basement. Its not pretty (its an unfinished basement), but would provide plenty of room for people to hang out comfortably and play some games.

I have an Astro City (vertical) and a New Astro City (horizontal), in addition to a 14' PVM and a FrameMeister hooked up to a pretty crappy old LCD TV (basically the same setup I had last time). Would encourage any more setups to be brought if we have a big enough turnout.

No ideas for a date or anything yet, just posting as kind of an interest check to see if there is still interest in meeting up and playing some games. Looking forward to hearing from people!

I'm still here and would definitely be up for a meet. Don't have any new PCBs to bring but still have all the previous stuff.

Hopefully we can get more than just me and szycag. I see some occasional posts from members near or in the KC area but never see much interest in hanging out.
