What a great day!
Huge thanks to TT for the ride and great company. Got to meet some great people and try tons of cabs I've never even seen before.
Arcade club is absolutely epic! My first time there and I'm sure i will return one day. There is a fresh set of new records on all stages on the Ridge Racer deluxe cabinet if anyone fancies a challenge.
Great day!

I've just put up a high score on the Space Invaders Part 2 in the lobby, although it's actually running an original board. Can't remember the score, but it was over 7000. If anyone can beat it, i'll buy them a penny chew.

Definitely worth the six hour drive! Think I may have spent more time talking to people than playing, but had an excellent time! Was nice to put faces to names and play some great stuff!

A brilliant, brilliant day. It's such a great community and I'm proud to be part of it 
Really awesome meet! Arcade Club seems to be thriving! I definitely talked more than I played, but had a great time. Met a load more people this year and put a few more names to faces. Had a lesson on playing Asteroids by Charlie Far and had a minor face-off on a particularly wibbly Arkanoid with Chris CnP.
Big thanks once again to @iamjimmy for playing host to Neil '20to5'and I.

I have to echo everything said. I met some amazing people, many for the first time. Everyone is so friendly and happy to help each other. Also Arcade Club continues to be absolutely awesome!
It’s an incredible community and I’m really glad to be a part of it. Thanks for a fantastic day

Great evening! Was nice to be able to put faces to names.
Just need to nurse this hangover, and get ready for round 2

Was great to meet you Brettster and thanks again for the PSU trade. It's the starting point for my framed Ridge Racer arcade build.
Such a great community.

I only joined this forum very recently but headed across to Arcade Club last night - had a blast. As others have said spent more time chatting than gaming but thoroughly enjoyed it.
Well guys what can I say,absolutely brilliant turn out.
Your all such top blokes and it’s such a great community.
I unfortunately was really ill and didn’t feel like coming at all,but wouldn’t have missed it for the world.
Thanks also for making my girlfriend welcome into the community too,she thought you were a great bunch of guys which means a lot to me.
Thanks again for everyone again that came up and said hello just sorry I was so quite I had a temperature and felt like sh*t.

Uploaded some photos to Flickr including the two attempts at a group shot... camera was f**ked but I hadn't realised so had to nurse it through until the group shot so most of these are iPhone pics unfortunately.

I'll stick them on the Facebook group too, can't be doing with resizing them and uploading here.
Was nice to catch up with the usual folks as well as meet some new faces too. I baled out at 23:30 but looked like it was going to go on a while longer!

Thanks for putting some pictures up Chris, glad there are some of the evening, didn't take a single one myself. Nice to get those group shot ones. The lights came on around 23:45 I think, that was around the time I left, so not sure if proceedings continued past midnight.
@Alex - hope you get better soon.
Was a great night, feeling pretty knackered now, was probably the up til 2am drinking the night before though

Thanks Chris - some great pictures there! Tried to download a couple but the download function has been disabled - is it possible to enable downloading? Would love to keep a couple of them....
Is it worth posting the group photo on this thread and asking people to say who there are, so we can put names to any faces that we didn't get a chance to meet/speak to?
