Their main site is down at the moment (being redone).


There has been talk of doing a get together of board members for the MGC next Year.  Looking for people who plan on coming to the get together.  There are ideas being thrown around at this time...from stuff at the hotel the show is being held at, get togethers at my house, plans in Milwaukee, etc.

This is so interested people can get together plan possible carpooling, etc. Also so we can have a head count for people (food/planwise, etc.).

You can post, or PM me directly for any questions, or ideas

I plan on being there also to host a Bomberman tournament for prizes and maybe a couple other drawings for various games!  I have priced flights and rooms for 5 days during the dates of the show and the total was 600.00 which includes hotel room rental car and flight. the hotel im looking at is Marriot courtyards in milwaukie they serve  free breakfast and have a happy hour in the evening    so  come along and join the fun......meet some of the shoutbox compadres but dont call me windancer! LOL

I haven't done a whole lot of planning for the next MGC, but I'll probably be there as usual. A get together would be great, especially considering how easy it is to miss fellow PCEFXers there. I'll have to see if I can attend that later.

Windlancer it's nice to hear that you are coming! It's always nice to see people willing to travel long ways to come . I've been in charge of Turbo Fest for the past couple of years and if you want to help with that, you're more than welcome to.

Hey, can you guys let me know what this is about (mainly opinions/impressions)?  What kinds of setups are there?  Sellers, or only to play?  I gotta say I'm pretty curious because I only live about an hour away (just across the Wisconsin/Illinois border), so any info/opinions would be great.  Thanks!

It's a classic gaming convention held in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. There are tons of games to play, sellers, speeches, and contests. I've written articles with pictures on my website here for the past three MGCs.

I've been meaning to ask you where you live in Illinois? I live in the south Chicago subburb of Crete, which you probably haven't heard of. There are quite a few Chicago PCEFXers here and Wisconsiners too.

Cool, I'm pretty sure that I'm going, this sounds awesome....I live in Rockford, directly south from Madison, or west of Chicago-right now I commute between Rockford and Dekalb, where I'm at school (N.I.U.)
So yeah, I'm really close to you guys, I imagine

Sounds cool! There is a Hitch in all my plans now though. I was laid off from work this week. My work says its temporary but they have lied to us since they started laying off. So now im gonna have to see where im sitting now. another 10 years down the tubes.

Well, just hang in there and see what happens Wind. Thats been going around alot lately, so Im not surprised. What was it you worked for exactly? Dont remember if you mentioned it before.

[nectarsis]

Sound like there may be even more interest than the few people I have personally talked to.   Looks to be shaping up to another great time.

The MGC only keeps getting bigger each year.
