Hi Guys & Gals

Post by Cave4life »

Hi Guys & Gals

My Name is Imogen and i cant tell you how happy i am to have found this place , I've been a gamer since i was 6 years old : ) . My fav game of all time is Galaga and this is the game that got me into shmups and ive been playing them ever since !!

I still enjoy my Mario's & Zelda's as well as Street Fighter but my Video gaming is now taken up solely by Shmups. My fav company is Cave as they make my Fav Shmup which is Espgaluda , I love that game so much and my PCB version is one of my most treasured possessions : D ....

I got into the PCB market only a few years ago when i got an old machine and copies of Galaga , Galaga '90 and Space Invaders for $120 off a guy from an ad in the local paper.

It took awhile to get used to setting them up and what not but soon i got the hang of it and now my basement contains 4 machines and almost 30 (27 to be more exact :P) PCB's including my most expensive purcahse to date Mushihimesama Futari that cost me a good $1800 :D

So anyway this is just an intro and a hello to you guys & gals here : D

im looking forward to making some friends here as no one i know is into video gaming especially shmups on arcade machines lol

If you live by the San Jose/San Francisco bay area, Cave4life, your best bet would be to take the grand tour at Dave K.'s hangout. From viewing his posted pics of his legendary shmupmeets, it is a stop that you wouldn't want to miss. And let's not forget Battlesmurf's digs, his place is cool for arcade shmups as well. ^_~

Glad to have you on-board, Imogen. ^_~

Japhei didn't try very hard this time.

Too busy playing Goowangee in the candy cab (or just taking videos of it and posting them on youtube)?

Casey man, still up to your old bag of tricks again? If you were originally from England, wouldn't you type with a bit of Brit slang to nail that part spot-on? And California is a long ways from Florida anyways. We still remember the notorious segafan4life shit threads that you pulled last time. Your current posting style easily gave you up.

robivy64 and Robotron were right in seeing through Casey's true colors this time around...what a fucking lame attempt this time around.

Thank god he isn't any good at it!

And thank god some of us are vigilant enough to spot him too!

And I love bloodflowers way of casting him off the forum at the end of the sale thread. Good work all who saw through 'imogen's' plans!

Both this user and JJ9000 posted from the same btinternet UK IPs. Actual DSL ones. I'm assuming it's Japhei using puppets again, something we've seen before.
