Me and two of my friends would be interested in coming. PM with directions I live right off of 16 1/2 in SH so you can direct me from there. It must of been almost 3 years since we last met. Should I bring any snacks or console games?

[Dale]

I might not be able to make it by 8 but we'll be there before 9:30.

[danox574]

Dale, I'll call you tomorrow. I thought you moved away, I didn't know you were in the area anymore! We'll have plenty of food/beer/games, just bring your friends and play some games!

[Dale]

Well I was away at trade school for a few months but my place of residence has stayed the same. I'm a CNA now but I'm having some trouble finding a job.

[Davey]

Just wanted to say "Thank you!" for a great get-together last night. You and your wife (and dogs!) are great hosts, very hospitable, and you have lots of fun toys to play with. I got to play at least two games that I haven't gotten to play before (Mushi Mushi Pork and APB), and enjoyed the both of them. Playing Ikaruga on an arcade cab is a very, very different experience from the DC...and I've obviously forgotten a lot of what I used to know about how to play that game. Plus, the pins! Very, very nice.

Anyway, thanks for the invite, and for the great time. Let me know if there's anything I can do for you in the future.

Thanks a bunch Dan!

My girlfriend and I had a blast, and I wish we could have stayed longer, I will definitely have to make the trip down again to hang out some time. You have an awesome collection both game and otherwise, and your wife's sausage bites where great. Really loved f9inally getting a crack at MMP and DFK. I really hope I see more of Flash Beats soon, great game.

[Davey]

Yet another Thank You post for hosting!

My sleep schedule was all messed up today, but it was worth it.

[tommyb]

Davey, your sleep schedule was all messed up because of our little after-party, hahah =D

Anyway, great party last night. So glad I got a chance to play MMP and DFK, and CvS2 was tons of fun as well. Flash Beats wasn't too shabby, either.

[Dale]

Yes I had a blast too. Everyone was really nice and I got to talk about some stuff I don't get to talk about often. DFK and MMP pork were great, and I loved playing Raindow Islands on a Candy stick.

[ubersaurus]

Dammit, this sounds awesome! I should check the board more often

[danox574]

Thanks for coming out guys! Don't know when the next one is but I'll be sure to let you know.
