    Quoted from Whysnow:

    I have lots of great moments and memories form this past weekend so a short list:
    Countless high fives from doug and jay and scott everytime I saw them
    Hugs and good times with great people just enjoying life
    Many people with smiles of pure joy while playing the gameshow cash grab machine
    Getting my nuts rumbled by BOP2.0 with the sub in the door
    KillerQueen (Yes, I played a videogame!) was super fun at 3am in the afterparty with the beardbros
    Teaching a bunch of people the ruleset for excalibur and then seeing them later on playing multiple games
    Hanging with Rob Anthony and others in his room and chatting. Rob also came over to my house pre-MGC and taught me a bunch of stuff, fixed a few lingering issues, and then we played through many of my games which was a blast and the perfect warm up to MGC. Such a solid dude and always a joy to hang with him and Taro.
    Dinner with Korn and SheKorn at Flemmings (it was the perfect break from MGC and made me glad we made that part of my lost bet)
    Yancy blowing it up on AFM during Chaos. Guy is a dominating player and was cool to see him blast the machine that everyone else was struggling on
    Jay getting a 'tat' at about 3am on Sat night
    Chickenhead in the gameshow
    Some new friends and reconnecting with old friends

    Where are pics of you in the shirt you lost the bet on?

    Quoted from TheKorn:

    Oh sorry sorry, got busy processing the rest of the MGC photos and neglected to post them. But here's the backstory, for those of us just hearing about this now.
    As some of you may or may not (hurumph) know, Whysnow (Hilton) has been a bit of a cheerleader for the whole Skit-B Predator Pinball project.
    End of October 2014 there was lots of bluster going every which way about taking bets whether Whysnow was going to get his Predator by the end of 2014. The usual keyboard warrior stuff, I'll bet you a game, I'll bet you a thousand dollars, mainly stuff that nobody would ever want to lose nor believe anyone you don't know would pay up on.
    I know Hilton, and having no horse in the race nor pot to throw at it couldn't pass up an opportunity to make lemonade out of lemons by amusing myself with the Predator situation. I WANTED IN ON THE ACTION! (I get bored easily. )
    So I sent Hilton some PMs, and we agreed to a bet. He'd be playing his Predator by January 1, 2015, or he'd have to wear a t-shirt of my design all day Saturday at MGC, plus buy me dinner. Conversely, if he was playing his machine by January first, I'd have to wear a shirt of his design, and buy him dinner.
    WELL... we all know what happened in the meantime. Needless to say I wasn't going to be buying dinner!
    Without further adieu, here is Hilton with the shirt! He wore it all day Saturday at MGC and on through the after party. Never let it be said that he doesn't pay on his bets!
    ...and dinner was pretty good, too!

    Thanks for being a good sport, Hilton!

    Thanks Vince.
    Looks like Hilton was a great sport about it.
