Doesn't ring a bell. There doesn't appear to be too large a collecting community in this area, so I don't meet many other collectors around.

[slapdash]

I know Inky from the forums, but no more than that...

I'm in Arlington Hts IL myself.

[Chunky]

Err oddly enough i just moved on north (cuz Butta smelled) and moved to foxlake. I flick off the radioshack whenever i pass! ;)

Well, I found his address on Atariage and sent him an e-mail. It would be cool to find another collector here, since they seem pretty rare. It would make me seem less weird to my friends. :-D

[Sulaco22]

Hoffman Estates,IL here

[vintagegamecrazy]

Awsome I didn't know there was so many of you around. Lets keep posting and plan something here. Lets make it affordable. If there aint too many of us I could do it at my house.

[vintagegamecrazy]

Lets do it. Anyone close to me that wants to get together even one on one. Anyone interested email me at Vintagegamecrazy@msn.com and I'll get back to you and we'll gettogether.

[Dan Iacovelli]

If any of you IL gamers want to join a mailing list for people in IL and surrounding states then E-mal:
AVCIL-Subscribe@yahoogroups.com.

This list was orginally stated when the first run of battlesphere was released
and a bunch of us would like to start a meeting of sorts. (that when it orignally on listbot)
I'm still going to try to plan meeting for the local group, but thats still
up in the air.

Let's do Evanston. I'm close. Bring your games too, let's trade and buy/sell and whatnot. It'd be amazing. :D

Make it happen! I've got....a projector screen I could bring if someone has a projector....and some xbox DDR pads, whoo. I might be able to yank Steel Battalion for a meetup too. And if someone has SNk cardfighters clash we should trade cards, heh.

My husband and I have started a level one 2nd Edition game everyother Saturday night. My husband has 10 years DMing experience and I have 4 as a PC. The other 3 players are kinda new to the world of RPGs, so we are starting off kinda slow. We are looking for 3-5 more players to join up with us. Our night starts around 4pm and we play until about 11ish. We do have a few drinks, so please no one under 21. (average age is 30) If you would like more info please email me at dlwogelius@yahoo.com. Our next night will be June 3rd.
