Oklahoma Roll-call --

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++

Welcome to the Digital Press Oklahoma Roll-call!!
Here you will find news on some smaller gatherings. Typically, the larger gatherings will have their own thread, but if you're living in or planning to visit Oklahoma and you would like to rattle around the idea of a get-together, feel free to give us a holler in here. Most of us have this thread in our "watch list."

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++

If you know any Okie forum members, point 'em this way. Maybe we can get something regular started. Post your location and typical availability. If you would like to help support this thread, and add a link to your signature, here is the code: (It will look just like my yellow one down there.)

Me:
The Village, OK
I'm usually available on the weekends.

Note: We don't have a lot of Okies around here & even fewer who visit this section of the forum. Keep your eye out for OK dwellers who join the forum and point them to this thread.

Maybe you could make a link to this thread in your signature? I know there's a lot of Okies (and others who border on Oklahoma) hanging around here. Flack, for one. Crossbow, for another. It's a shame that there's no Oklahoma Videogame Expo this year.

Good idea. Done.

[thegardentool]

Why thank you for the PM about this.

I'm in poor ole Shawnee while my wife finishes her nursing degree. I'm usually avaiable on weekends as well except for generally the first weekend of each month.

[namzep]

I'm located in Stillwater. I'm usually availiable on weekends, as well.

Nothing game related? Pshaw! Flack (OKC), 98PaceCar (TX), Gapporin (MO) and Grimbal (AR) just hooked up at my place for some gaming and thrifting last night (AR). I'm pretty much a stone's throw from the border so I guess I should count for this.

Also, Crossbow and Atari2600Lives are both in Tulsa.

Crossbow?

[DeputyMoniker]

That Casa Viva place in Tulsa is supposed to be an arcade. Anybody know if it is?

[Flack]

We tried this once before, with limited success:

http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=84007

Smiling Jack started the thread, and there were only two people who responded; me, and some guy with 3 posts who disappeared after that thread. Guess we scared him off.

So far it looks like:

Crossbow (Tulsa)
DeputiyMoniker (Bethany)
Flack (Yukon)
Roushimsx (?)
Smiling Jack (Moore)
thegardentool (Shawnee)

I know there are more, that's just what comes to my head.

I know Deputy already knows about this forum, but the Oklahoma Coin-Operated Collectors Forum is an Oklahoma-specific forum for arcade collectors.

Here is the code if anybody else wouldn't mind linking to this thread in their signature. Just remove that space at the beginning.

He organized OVGE (Oklahoma Video Game Expo) which was hosted in Tulsa for the past four years. Sadly, there was no OVGE this year.

[DeputyMoniker]

Ahh...well, why does everybody know him as Crossbow?

[Flack]

Cuz that's his alias?

[Phosphor Dot Fossils]

...but everyone knew her as Nancy.

[vespertillio]

When will some of you folks head out Colorado way? We need to set up some kind of Rocky Mountain Gaming expos here.

[DeputyMoniker]

Cuz that's his alias?

Thanks, Rob. We don't have a Crossbow here. I don't see one, anyway.

[Phosphor Dot Fossils]

Exhibit A:
-^Cro§Bow^-

Oh. I remember that now.

[Wraith Storm]

It's a shame that there's no Oklahoma Videogame Expo this year.

I agree! It's one of the few cons I can attend and I was looking forward to it all year and then nothing ever happened.

Im located in Skiatook and usually available on the weekends. Although I just got a low-level management position at work so i'm sure i'll be working 6/12's before long. ::Sigh::

At least i'll be able to afford more games :P
