Quoted from LTG:I don't know how Dan does it. MGC keeps getting better and better every year.

Magic
Well it's magic and Taro. Everyone comes to see Taro!...
Well, magic, Taro, and Dan...
Well, magic, Taro, Dan, and Gary...
Well, magic, Taro, Dan, Gary, Steve, Keith, Aaron, Chris, Mark, and at least dozens of other very passionate people that love the show!
But Taro needs his own segment, since really, everyone comes to see Taro.

Rob, Dont waste your time talking to that old shit, Hell, when was the last time he showed up to anything, He is just fading away from seeing people, Im surprised it took this long, but apparently Deb realized that he shouldnt be seen in public anymore
Quoted from Methos:I'll take Princess Peach for $100 Alex.
Hahaha. That's my best friend's wife lol.
I ended up dancing around in a sonic the hedgehog suit last year lol.

I encourage ALL to bring a pin and really experience what MGC has to offer!
It takes the community to make this show great and bringing your best pin to show off/share (and then get into the after party) is a huge part of the experience.

I am very much looking forward to MGC next year. It is a shame that Gaming Hoopla, a board game convention in Gurnee, is scheduled the same weekend. Luckily my wife and I already have tickets to MGC, so we will be there.
MGC is the bomb! Looking forward to starting to work on the games I will be bringing after the NYE holiday.

Rob I have a few chexx boards that lit on fire.....can you fix them? hahahh jk.
Can't wait for this!!!!
Quoted from Slim64:Already trying to figure out which games I'll bring.
Can't wait!
starlight and nitro... 
Ill be bringing a "La Retata" I doubt anyone has seen one, although they may have played one. Mine is a custom one of one machine. Ive set a goal of getting it done for MGC and i think that im still on target
Quoted from Tilt:Ive set a goal of getting it done for MGC and i think that im still on target
MGC sure does help to keep the midnight oil burning on pinball projects
Quoted from janus:Who was bringing the CSI to MGC? I don't remember seeing it last year.
The reason I ask is I'll bring mine this year if he doesn't. Rare game, everyone should get the chance to play.

D'oh, Just noticed the vendor stuff has been on the website for MONTHS now. I'm so used to getting an e-mail about it as a previous vendor that I never even thought to check. Just e-mailed Gary, hope my spot is still open!

Yup...I had mine there 3 or 4 times I think. It is gone now, so yes...please bring yours. I'd like to play one again! There was one year that a second one was there...not sure who that one belonged to, but that was a few years back.
Quoted from yancy:Anyone looking for a Sheraton room? I have Friday & Saturday nights booked, decided to hit PAPA instead. Maybe there's a way to change ownership of the reservation without putting it back up for grabs.
Had to thumbs down that . You'll be missed at MGC , sucks when events overlap .
Quoted from Jediturtle:Yup...I had mine there 3 or 4 times I think. It is gone now, so yes...please bring yours.
Will do
PAPA and MGC are on the same weekend? I thought PAPA looks to see what other major shows are on that weekend and book around them? They are usually good about that. MGC is one of the bigger ones around. I'm surprised they overlapped that.

I don't think this is the first year it's happened either

correct, PAPA seems to have zero care about MGC.
Quoted from Whysnow:correct, PAPA seems to have zero care about MGC.
which is funny because MGC is bigger than replay FX.
Wanted to be sure this was here somewhere : https://www.midwestgamingclassic.com/
Great show. Gamers add a level of excitement that is unbelievable. And the pinball part keeps getting better and better every year.

Quoted from CaptainNeo:which is funny because MGC is bigger than replay FX.
I wish MGC was physically larger than ReplayFX so I could walk on Saturday.
Anyway, I don't think PAPA cares too much about overlapping a show that doesn't involve a "major" tourney. So many shows these days, gotta overlap something.
The MGC site doesn't mention it yet, but if anyone does the Brewers tailgate thing, the Cubs are in town on 4/7.
I'd rather stay at the show and play pinball myself, but if you're looking to experience a "Chicago North" game, I assume it will be as bad as ever after the World Series last year.

physical space, Replay FX is larger. Content MGC is still the biggest pinball/arcade home system show around. Just divided up into 40 some rooms.

Ill be bringing Cybernaut, which will also be for sale -

I handed off an extra room to a friend last year, just call the hotel and tell them what you're doing and reservation#, it went pretty smooth.

Now if we could just add an LTG show to MGC...
Quoted from janus:Now if we could just add an LTG show to MGC...
My first seminar was there, the last year it was held at Oconomowoc, WI.
Sadly poor time of the year for me. Especially this year a couple weeks after TPF, which I'm already committed to.
I do miss it. You walk into the building and I swear their is electricity in the air. The gamers add such a level of excitement to the show it is unbelievable. And the pinball part which is great gets better every year. And the Saturday night party has reached epic proportions.
Dan and his crew really knock themselves out year after year.
