I'm tempted, but at the same time I'm kind of relieved to be finished with the previous tournament just because it means I can get back to playing whatever I want. I've finally started working on my PCB Lunatic clear.

Any chance you can tempt me with ideas of the sorts of games we may be playing?

Old ones. I don't want to spoil the surprise, but I can confirm Space Invaders isn't in there.

Oh wut ... right on the heels of TRAP-STGT ...

Are we going to get the 2HU-STGT we were promised?

Will it turn into another BTCH-STGT?

Anyway, I'm in.

I foresee WWII planes, UFO's and NO LOLIS. Some Nichibutsu would be great.

Hmm, not space invaders and no modern shit. So something between 1979 and 1995? These might be the games I'm looking for.

I should have at least enough time to play a few credits of each game.

I'm hoping for some games most people wouldn't expect. Including me. =)
