Well, I was able to get some much-needed practice in for Darius Plus and Battle Lode Runner.  Unfortunately, I'm still not very good at either...    ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

At least I'm definitely coming, and bringing someone, too!  I'll see all of you there.

Good to hear Bardoly! Looking forward to seeing you again. The more competition we have in the tournaments, the better!
SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.

Is there anything that it would help if I brought?  i.e. extra controllers, specific games, a system, etc...

Bring Hatris and then send it to me.

Thank you (I'm not joking).

If you have a Turbo Everdrive, that would come in handy, otherwise hardware-wise, we are good! Thanks!

No Everdrive, just 600+ games.  Lol. Maybe one day I'll have to do a switch on that for space.

Another fun year in the books! Thanks to all of you guys that stopped by. We shared some neat stories and had ourselves some very fun tournaments! 

To those who attended, feel free to comment about the event and/or the convention.

Here are several pictures I took at the show. Sorry, they are not the best quality. Hopefully others have pics to share as well.






Battle Lode Runner Second Place Winner: Bardoly's brother in law (Joshua)



Battle Lode Runner 1st Place Winner: DragonMasterDan



Bomberman '94 Second Place Winner: Jonathon (Non-PCEFXER)



Bomberman '94 First Place Winner: Alex (Non-PCEFXER)



Darius Plus Second Place Winner: Yours Truly



Darius Plus First Place Winner: Bardoly



Darius Score Chart: Bardoly and I were neck and neck in this tournament. He was able to edge me out. Congrats Bardoly, what an exciting match!  :clap: We both made it to the end boss on Zone K or the fifth stage.

Well I'm bummed I couldn't stay longer, but I'm glad I was still able to make it for some of the fun festivities! Was worth it to see some dude trying to sell a PCE LT for $1400 untested and uncapped, and an as-is untested Duo Monitor for $400.

Looked like fun, thanks for the pics. Posts like these are likely the closest I'll come to a TurboFest.

Bummed I wasn't able to go. It seems like every year I have a wedding or an event of some sort that I already bought tickets for by the time I find out when TurboFest is happening. I'll get there eventually.

chany: DAT svengoolie, tho... :)

TurboFesters: I WISH I WAS THERE, if only to get last place in Battle Lode Runner (my kids are better than me)... also, I would have committed self-sacrifice* in Bomberman frequently (again, just ask my kids).

I laughed at this as well.
