Okay roll call update. We are almost a week away and I wanted to see who exactly is showing their ugly mugs at Golloping Ghost arcade? I'm definitely set to come. Reservations made at Comfort Inn in Downer's Grove. I'll be flying solo as Ashe is out of vacation hours. Anyhoo...

Roll call!

if it wasn't for the walter day event I would come but I'm more interested in the walter day event.
word on the street Octurbofest will be in the updated game rooms.
(I'm working with doc to have my AtariMania event connected with his Atari Week he planning)

I just recently got my bus ticket to head home that weekend, so I'm good to go. Do you guys need any extra systems or controllers to be brought? If any help is needed I'd be glad to help :)

I'd say leave it, if this were peke-fest then it might be a good idea.

I remember we had Neo Geo and Peke there last time I came to Octurbofest. All NEC is fine by me too. :D

let me know if you do!  My flight arrives in the afternoon and I also was thinking about visiting the arcade before turbofest. It would be bad firm to disobey at turbofest. :lol:

I work Friday night but i was thinking about going after. Which would mean I'd get to GG at around 11-ish. On Friday they close at 2 so that would only give me 3 hours-ish. Or i was also just thinking of getting to GG at 11 on Saturday since that's when they open and then stay at the arcade after Octurbofest.

I don't know, I've got some plannin' to do. I'll let ya know.

If anybody is interested I'll bring some trade fodder along just in case anyone wants a FDS Kid Icarus or City Hunter.
