fully agree Rob!

I look forward to next year when we can hang more and you are just enjoying the fun rather than working the show!

Just go away Mike! If you have not realized, YOU are the one and only reason expo continues to decline in number of atendies.

At this point if it was not for the history of the event and people announcing new games, your show would be done.

Best thing that could happen for expo is you to just disappear.

Not a personal attack at all. I am serious, bestvthing for expo is for Mike not to come here and try and throw Rob under a bus. ROb is well liked and a reason people go to expo.

Mike provides new reasons every year for people to no longer attend expo.

I am giving genuine and serious advice. expo would do better if mike just disappeared and went behind the scenes. expo is a huge money making venture for Mike and honestly he would do better business without him.

As far as helping do a show better. I continue to do my part to support the shows worth supporting. I am actually very happy to hear Rob will no longer be attending as a vendor. MIke does not deserve the hard work and voulenteers that have helped line his pockets for years. If things continue to slip the Rob leaving may be the impitus for others to follow.

This was the lightest vendor attendance I have ever seen and by the sounds of it, it will be a continuing trend unless things change more.

Stick around a little longer with this account and you will see that I spell wrong all the time. This is a casual forum where things like spelling dont matter. The people that are concerned with spelling are wort makin mad cause they get in a fuss over misspellins.

Back on topic, it seems evidint the trend form the past years is many prominent people in the pinball hobby; people that have done lots to help put on Expo, are tired of dealing with a single individual.

Seems like the simplest and best thing would be to remove that individual from running the show and being the figurehead.

As for helping other shows, I have said it before... I am happy to help any other show that I think it is worth spending my voulenteer time to pad their pockets. I refuse to help Mike after hearing how he treated some of the game room voulenteers, seeing how he talks down to his staff, and just in general being mean and outrageous behavior to many of the paying customers.
