Anyone who's aware of what I do probably already knows about the worst kept secret event in arcade collecting
27th April 2013 - Retro Games Party 5.25 Meet :: Blackburn, Lancashire
Start approx 5pm - end 2am ish
You are cordially invited to come along and play about 35 arcade machines plus some pinballs and retro computers/consoles on Saturday 27th April. I realise that might be a bit soon but I thought i'd post it so that everyone has at least half a chance.
I have room for upto 60 people and the current invite list stands at about 33 so there's plenty of space left.
Full details and signup can be done here: http://goo.gl/8RXWd
I run all the registrations through my own site now because with them getting a bit bigger it just makes it easier to manage than copying and pasting directions into PM's. At the moment I can cater for about 60-70 people but if I move to where i'm hoping to, i'll be able to let upto 150 people at a time come.
So the deal is that I have this fairly big place, it looked a bit bare, my girlfriend lives 200 miles away so instead of it being full of shoes and pot-pourri and unnecessary pictures of flowers, I filled it with the other thing that I love - retro arcade and computers.
A lot of people on here I already know and a lot I don't so if you can come, it's a great opportunity to meet. You'll be in a room with about 95% other arcade types.
From J+, a lot of people know that I keep a few secret surprises, usually it's a mystery cab that i've bought and things like that, there was quite a guessing game played for the November party last year on that one. This time it's a bit more subtle but there's still plenty of "no way" factor for anyone new coming.
I hope some of you can make it, there's no harm in disclosing the guest list on here, it's openly viewable on my forum, here's who's coming currently:
RGP
LXW
Smraedis
Fuzzy
Ben76 (more than likely)

If you want to come along, just whizz your name down below and visit the link and register, it takes about 1 min - i'm only going to ask for your details to put in manually if you don't cos you'll want directions to get to mine.
Hope to see some new faces and make some new friends to go with the amazing ones i've met already over the last few years being in this hobby.
Until then.... James
