haven't forgotten you guys. I just wanted to see if anyone here would
be interested/able to attend a contest. Contest dates are not set
firmly yet, but would probably be in the last Fri/Sat/Sun of March.
Contest location is tentatively going to be in Bloomington, IL
(61701)...right in the middle of IL. There are 50+ classics and 30+
(post 90's) newer games...all on free play. If you're located anywhere in the midwest (USA), then this would be a great opportunity to experience a live event...the arcade is worth the trip.
Of course, I'm a little partial, given that it's less than 2 miles from my home. 
A complete list of the games present as of yesterday(1-23-08) may be
found here: http://www.classicarcadegaming.com/foru ... 434.0.html
Classic Arcade Gaming (CAG) has a wonderful forum also, so you're all
invited to check it out(link above to list is on CAG forums)
There are cash prizes awarded, with a minimum, but no maximum amount.
Cash prizes will be dependant on number of entrants, so the more
entrants, the bigger the prizes. Games included in the contest have
not been chosen yet, so if you are interested, drop in on the CAG
forums. All CAG forum members are allowed to vote on the contest
games. Everything is dependant on getting at least 10 confirms to
attend.
Thanks guys; hope to hear from you soon.
