Midwest Gaming Classic 2K12 - March 24th & 25th

[Compute]

I'm there. I'd like to be there all weekend, but now I may even come down Friday to see Tom Taylor's arcade collection. Anyone want to split a room?

[WizDawg]

I recieved my tickets in the mail yesterday. I'm excited to participate in the Clock Chaos tourney again. I've been playing a ton of pinball this year. Also looking forward to the new Up to Par tourney.

I plan on getting there Fri night and staying til Monday this time.

Compute I think we may have met once with knowing it but I can split a room with you. PM me if interested.

[icbrkr]

Made it the last 3 years. Don't see any reason not to make it this time around

[GrandAmChandler]

Flight Booked!

[Queen Of The Felines]

Got my table a while back. Anybody want some custom buttons made let me know. I might do keychains too.

[Matt-El]

Tables purchased, room reserved, looking forward to another year selling. I look forward to seeing you there everyone.

To whom it may concern,

Benheck Experience needs more tables this year. There was around 5 or 6 of us fighting for tablespace last year. I think one or two extra would suffice. Live mods/fixing stuff again and all that again hopefully.

Contact me direct -- if you don't have my email addy, contact me via the MGC Contact forum and I'll get back to you.

As always, we'll do everything within our power to provide more space for stuff, but I can't really guarantee anything. We've taken over the lobby and the restaurant now, and unless we're going to start using hotel rooms, I don't know what more we can do! But again, email me, we'll talk

I need to have my VB fixed, can I just bring it in or will I need to make an "appointment" ? I'd fix it myself, but I'd rather have someone do it who has done it before.

[wallydawg]

We tried to fix This Guy's VB last year and no luck. Can't really do the oven the oven trick to fix horizontal screen lines in the middle of a hotel, but anyone can bring whatever in and we can at least take a look at it. I think our actual success rate of actually fixing something is pretty low with just one or two things a year (last year I think we fixed a Tapwave Zodiac, of all things), but we mean well and try our best, and sometimes it comes up aces. A lot of times if we can't fix something, whether from insufficient tools or not our area of expertise, we can at least point you in the right direction.

[Compute]

That would be awesome. One of the eyepieces is out. I've read a billion threads on this, so I'll say it's the "easy" one. Maybe I can find a buyer with only one eye at the show.

[Tupin]

Got everything planned out, but I should probably buy my tickets in advance this year. The line is always very long, but it's just getting it earlier, not getting them in the mail? Or is it?

Either way, can't wait. Marty made an awesome show last year, especially with the 80's room in the museum.

You get your vouchers in the mail that you need to turn in for tickets at the show.

You can start turning in your vouchers this year at 9am. At 9:30am, a few select halls will open early ONLY for those who pre-ordered. It is also the only way to get the MGC limited edition style T-shirt.

Finally, it helps improve the show that very year. 100% of the money that we raise from pre-order tickets we immediately re-invest into the show that same year, so you're helping us make an even better experience for you!

I knew I had a pretty good size collection of Star Trek and Star Wars Hallmark ornaments. I didn't know I had this many, especially multiple duplicates. Sine I am starting to run out of video games to sell, I will have all my extras for sale this year in my booth.

Is anyone else getting spam links on the midwest gaming site?

Jeff,

Could you explain more? I just checked out our site, and I don't see anything that appears to be out of the ordinary... If something's going wrong, I'd like to know so I can fix it!

Past vendors -

For someone looking to thin out their collection, is it worth grabbing a $100 table? Ideally I'd bring 2-3k worth of inventory and hope to clear it out.

Edit: on the spam question I didn't see anything. I just surfed through vendor info.

[Queen Of The Felines]

Definitely yes.

I haven't been a vendor there but I do end up spending more money at this show than pretty much all of the other shows in the year combined.

[Tupin]

Kind of unrelated to this year, but how much did that LaserActive go for last year during the silent auction. If I remember, it was something ridiculously low.

But man, do people bring awesome stuff to MGC. I've seen stuff there I've never seen anywhere else. A little bit more than a month left!
