I should emphasize once again that nearly ALL shmup PCB's are available, eventhough we will probably end up playing the more recent Cave games

. STG's collection is amazing!

OMG. I hope that i can afford to go there from Berlin.
Is it open to the public?

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Thu May 22, 2008 4:01 pm

I would love to go as well, but seeing as I live in the states, it's a little hard to just hop on a plane and go. And I honestly don't know if $3000 would cut it.

Out of curiosity, how hard is it for the average EU person to go across countries to get to these meets? To me, it would seem easy since you guys have a great train system, but it may be a little more complicated than I think. Here in the states, the biggest problem is driving the long distances required to get to the meets. As a result, I've never been to any meets.

Well, it depends how far you are going, obviously, but Munich is within 4-5 car hours from Austria, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Italy, France, Slovenia and Croatia, so it's not too inconvenient.

still not sure if I'll be there....

not cheap ass flights to Munich and for now only sure of the saturday off.
200 Euro for just a 2 day weekend flight seems much. Cheapest I could find. Train isn't much cheaper either....

if I can arrange the friday as well I'll be there though.

reading you talking this way makes me fear you maybe cancel that meet.
Please try your best to come over

i'm totally not sure yet. depends on some important studies exams just few days .. after this event. but from France ; Lyon-Munich is easy for flights... that would add another country for style of international meeting event.

CIT · Post by **CIT** » Mon Jun 09, 2008 7:23 pm

Would be cool if you could make it too. Anybody's welcome!

@Sven

Didn't you have some mad plan to load up your car with Jägermeister to pay for the petrol bill when you get home? ^^

caincan · Post by **caincan** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 10:44 am

got bad notations for my middle exam. lot of "points" to run after now. dream is over, i won't come (except if *ù$^$^ eurobillions incomes come so i can quit this hardcore formation)

Super Laydock · Post by **Super Laydock** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 10:37 pm

I'll have to cancel as well.

Though I got the saturday of from work and could come over for one day, the costs of 200 Euro minimum aren't worth it to me.
Especially after losing a lot of money last month (over 500 Euro in my wallet -> gone

) I can't justify this for only 2 days.

I think we also set a new record for number of women at a shmupmeet.

Awesome meeting guys! Hope we get a chance to do another one soon.

Some games played that Plasmo forgot to mention: Guwange, OutZone, Recca, Lord of the Sword (not a shmup, but nice anyway)

I think my highlights were DFK, Futari BL and Air Gallet.
