Is anyone going to Insert Coin 09?

Post by Leeram »

I'll be there! (If you haven't heard of it, check out insertcoin-09.com)

Is anyone else going? We could maybe have a little shmups.com comp on one of the shmups.

Cheers

Which reminds me.. people need paying :lol:

Yes most of the UK guys are going and yes there are Comps already. You can enter them on the day, just see a tatooed guy called spadgy.

The only other alternative is to rent a rental truck and haul your candy cab to the IC-'09 show. It might set you back a bit but worth in the end. ^_~

If you live in Sunderland everywhere is more than 1 hour away.

Can only suggest train, but even that takes hours.

There's shipping options (I forget the details but something like £50 for the first mumble-mumble-don't-remember-how.many miles and a bit more after that). Speak to poolchamp for details - might be cheaper than you'd think!

Muchi Muchi Pork will be there - if no one else is bringing it, my copy will be there at least :D

Not really worked out how I'm going to get there yet, but I will be there.

You guys took all the orders for the cabs months ago didn't you?

Just a bit of advice: Now is the time to book train tickets. They're like half the price they were 3 days ago. Yoink :D

Me and my long suffering girlfriend will be attending. It's going to be absolutely awesome :D

My friends and I are coming down for the weekend. I'm going to take part in some tournaments (the shooting game ones specifically, and anything else that might be of interest), but they're coming down to abuse freeplay rights to all the fighting game cabs, LOL.

See you guys there.

Come check out my website, I guess. Random stuff I've worked on over the last two decades.

Cheers DEL, I've been lost in the Wastelands of Fallout 3. I managed to find my way back though :-)

It'll be great to see you all there, you'll be able to recognise me easily; I'll be the fat bloke fighting the person trying to kick me off Salamander ;-)

Oh, and it's pointless me even thinking about entering a competition if DEL is about. I might as well just give him my money directly!

Myself and Fire-bug are planning discussing something on Monday. If all goes well, expect us there both days. After we talk I will post the outcome here.

I had no idea about the party. Are there any tickets left or have I missed the boat. I need to check with my mate but I think I'll probably need two.

That's me! I'll be there - looking forward to meeting some new faces, and seeing the Casino crew in a different place! I'm also looking forward to hitting up the Pinball tables, as they have all my favourites there...

11 days to go!!

Still no sign of tickets though. Anyone else get theirs? I know ticket companies like to keep things down to the knuckle to avoid touting. Obv, you can just print them out, but I have no printer, and can't be arsed to go to the library :(
