Or maybe change it into a Thrift Store.
Quoted from Electrocute:Or maybe change it into a Thrift Store. Bring in your unwanted crap and we’ll sell it!
He wouldn’t do the selling part though lol
Quoted from Electrocute:......it’s 5pm and there ain’t nobody there! Wow.

OBVIOUS reason.....everyone is saving their energy for those CRAZY busy Mondays.

Man, that's just desperate and sad.
Quoted from dontfeed:Man, that's just desperate and sad.
It happens. Even in the best of times. An arcade isn't busy all the time.

Normally I'd agree with you but the math that he has shared with us suggests that his arcade is hopping 24/7.

What I meant was his whiny appeal for customers is desperate and sad.
"We have air hockeeeey." Ugh.

See. Just like I said. Constantly reassuring people that they are indeed open. That must be the reason there are no people....lack of knowledge about his business hours!

It's like a bad movie script that the writer keeps bringing to the table despite being rejected repeatedly.
Desparate.
Maybe he should add a laundromat to the museum ( more like a mausoleum ) where you could wash your sweatpants to bring in a few more quarters. Watching your clothes go around might be as good as some of the impressive video games.
How annoying it must be to just want to play a few games and then you see Steven start taking pictures of you to post on Facebook to prove that he has customers.

Especially when it looks like your face mask is pulled down in pic.
Yep....TOTALLY being a safe business. If it is pulled down (like it certainly appears), GREAT choice of photo to post after saying how safe and clean your business is.
Edit: decided to double check original pic...yep, no mask over face in posted business pic. GREAT JOB coronaseum.

What does that facebook post even mean? Maybe I’m just getting old.

Just thought about it....would those boys be running from girls, or from their smart decision to stay away from an establishment that allows improper mask use?
I noticed that the FB post on if they wipe their equipment down after use got ignored.
Sincerely, I don't understand how you could simply flat out ignore (like so many other ignored or deleted questions/comments) a legit business safety concern from a (potential)customer like that. I really mean this part! Plenty of time to type long stuff and post pics of air hockey not in use.....no time to answer a health safety concern???
I stay off Pinside on the weekends. But every Monday I look forward to making a coffee and browsing through 60+ new posts. Thanks for keeping my Monday routine going.

Looks like after reading your post, Steven took it down.
Quoted from Flowst:What does that facebook post even mean? Maybe I’m just getting old.
Nah....well......no faster than the rest of us.
It didn't make since to me either. It wound up being a followup comment to that b&w photo of old arcade vs his.
Some b.s. blah blah blah about how it's so good that it isn't like it used to be when kids lined up next game quarters and how littler kids would be run off/intimidated kind of thing by bigger kids playing, etc.
Hence his comment about his 3 customers....make all your customer (yes intentionally singular) feel special that way.
Quoted from PismoArcade:Looks like after reading your post, Steven took it down.
I thought so too....it's under more replies on that old arcade vs lameseum split pic I was just typing about.

It's fine that he removed the post. It will live on forever here.
Quoted from edward472:It's fine that he removed the post. It will live on forever here.
I'm sure he is typing a lengthy diatribe to his 'staff' for having posted such a photo.
LOL so Steven is saying that if that type of behavior happened at Gamesuem (bigger kids hogging the games from smaller kids), he would have them running away whilst crying, sucking their thumbs and asking for mommy.
What a badass!!
The context you guys added helps, thanks
Can't help but think to myself, "What does Mr.Steven know, he wasn't alive then."
A little positive energy towards the hobby is hardly a bad thing, albeit a little self aggrandizing on his part.
Also Boob, where is that damned pic? This plaque is more broken than the stair climber-thingee.
Quoted from Moli410:Boob! The Plaque!
Yeah. About the plaque. I spoke to the guy last Tuesday who was annealing the stainless steel piece I gave him. Since the design was almost all black and the letters were just stainless steel, there was so much black that the laser literally made the steel glow red and the whole piece warped. So he had to order me another piece of stainless and will redo the plaque with black writing instead (just a negative image) so it doesn't turn the plaque into a boomerang. (His words, not mine.)
That's where we are on the plaque.

That is definitely “NOT Stephen” in that photo, his evil non mask wearing, different color sweatpants look alike there to ruin his reputation.

Well....a black plaque is certainly better than having black plague...so there's that.

Nothing good is ever easy !

Sounds like they will hopefully ship to donors late this week.
And so on and so forth .....

I can see it now. Medieval peasant pushing a wheel barrow, ringing a bell. Crying out, "bring out the boob, bring out the boob, bring out the boob".

You forgot that the wheel barrow will be damaged.
Quoted from pacmanretro:You forgot that the wheel barrow will be damaged.
And he begged for money on the side of the road to afford the bell

The bell will be cracked too.

And claim the wheel barrow is full even though no bodies in it.
