    Location preview?

    Great satellite view Dan !

    Hotel preview?

    Judging by the hieroglyphics, I'd say Cairo Egypt.

    Post negotiation food with "the closer".

    They make you eat that to get a better deal ?

    Quoted from goatdan:

    I seem to have killed the thread, so to get it on track again I'll just say...

    Just say who ran into you at the new venue.

    Where ever you go. Best wishes and every success !

    Quoted from goatdan:

    any change can be hard to accept.

    Change can be hard to adapt too. But people will soldier through it.

    Quoted from goatdan:

    I truly believe the show will function better for almost everyone.

    Huge thanks to you and all involved in making MGC happen and get better every year !

    Quoted from aobrien5:

    Well Dan, you didn't want the thread to die, what else are we supposed to be doing in here?!

    More important. Will Dan get a pedicure for the new show ?

    After it gets announced tomorrow,

    Someplace where they didn't clean up all the blood.

    Quoted from Goonie:

    Why are you in close relations with Dan's toes anyway?

    You kidding ? They are awesome. You have to see them to believe them. They are to die for. He must have had braces or surgery or something to make them so cute.

    Great news Dan !

    Quoted from goatdan:

    It's something that I love about the show,

    And why bringing a game(s) and getting into the after hours party is a must.

    #641 6 years ago
    Quoted from Whysnow:

    Ltg, will u be committing to attend this year?

    I really love the show. And Dan. Both are awesome. And the people.

    Bad time of the year for me, especially if CGC sends me to TPF before MGC. Closing to attend shows isn't good for business.

    LTG : (
    Disclaimer : My first seminar was at MGC, the last year at Oconomowoc. I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for MGC.

    #643 6 years ago
    Quoted from cavalier88z24:

    he's going to be one of Dan's V.I.P.s

    Now that is funny.

    Dan already has an impressive list. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't make the cut. Too many great people already lined up for MGC.

    Quoted from goatdan:

    Today's VIP announcement is Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Spooky Pinball, Kayte Emery!

    What a great day. I just found out Chicago Gaming Company is sending me to Midwest Gaming Classic.

    I was at the last show at Oconomowoc - first seminar I ever did, the first year at Greenfield. And now the first year at the new place in Wisconsin.

    I am so excited to have this opportunity !

    Quoted from goatdan:

    Yeah, leave it to me to derail the thread!

    That sucks. Where are you supposed to ride your Triceratops ?

    #931 6 years ago

    Chicago Gaming Company is sending me to MGC. I picked up a new tool box for MGC and TPF. Though repairs have almost been none existent. Last year at TPF a broken prototype launch bracket, this year one spring. I don't like not being ready.

    LTG : )
    Disclaimer : I was going to bring a roll cabinet. I decided to condense things even more.

    Quoted from Whysnow:

    Show us the inside now!

    Won't be anything in there until Thursday night before I leave for MGC Friday morning. Then I grab the essentials from the roll cab and put into the traveling companion.

    There are many tools and parts I only want one of. So stop by the CGC area and I'll show you.

    LTG : )

    #935 6 years ago
    Quoted from Crashnburn:

    There is probably beer in it not tools.

    Hey now. Just because I was in the wonderful state of Wisconsin last week doesn't mean anything.

    Quoted from KingPinGames:

    so if you want to fill your tool cart with beer... I will not object to that.

    Then I better switch back to the roll cab. More room for beer.

    Quoted from Yelobird:

    What New CGC game did they ask you to bring schematics for Mr Lloyd.....??

    I do not know if they plan to reveal the next game there or not. I was asked to go, if I wanted to. Kingpin games will bring the games there. My understanding is 8 pins and some video games. Sounds similar to what was at TPF.

    It was my idea to bring my own tools and parts. They only had one flipper return spring break at TPF, but even so I hate to run around borrowing tools or parts. This for me is a trial run for TPF next year. To learn what I want to bring with, for my benefit.

    Quoted from Gryszzz:

    You guys are AWESOME.
    THANK YOU!

    I agree. What an amazing show !

    #1338 6 years ago
    Quoted from snakesnsparklers:

    It definitely looked tough for the few folks trying to work on their games Saturday.

    It was an adventure. I was fortunate the problems were few. A WOZ broke a rubber ring under the spinning house right before the after hours party started. That had to wait until Sunday morning before the show opened.

    Same with cleaning glass. I did that each day before things opened up. Two rows of CGC pins, two rows of JJP pins, and the four Houdini's. I took extra care on the JJP and AP pins because they all had invisiglass. Once the show started. You couldn't do it.

    LTG : )

    #1357 6 years ago
    Quoted from rosh:

    you mean 'magic glass'.

    Sorry. I asked Chris from Kingpin Games who brought the CGC, JJP, and two of the Houdini's, what kind of glass was on the JJP games before I cleaned them. He said invisiglass, and on the Houdini's too.

    So I took extra care when cleaning them. Right cleaner, right technique.

    I hope I didn't do anything wrong with the 'magic glass'.

    #1360 6 years ago
    Quoted from KingPinGames:

    Thanks to llyod for the help with the jjp and cgc

    A pleasure to help you Crihs !

    #1383 6 years ago
    Quoted from Gryszzz:

    Thanks Jesse and Ryan for bringing all the Houdinis.

    Chris at Kingpin games brought 2, Jesse and Ryan brought 2.

    Both great distributors and helped make MGC special. As did the Gryszzz. Seeing you always makes the day !

    Quoted from Gryszzz:

    Thanks Lloyd. Seeing you was meh.

    I like that one. Thank you !

    #1388 6 years ago
    Quoted from KingPinGames:

    Technically, Jesse (Pincades) brought all 4 of them to the show. 2 of them were for me, but he did bring them all.

    Oops. I blame it on weather lag.

    LTG : )

    #1390 6 years ago
    Quoted from aobrien5:

    I'll add Jesse is a great dude and hooked me up this year. Also had the best looking booth,

    The Houdini games, banners, posters, and straight jacket, did make an awesome display.

    LTG : )

    #1393 6 years ago
    Quoted from s1500:

    Amtrak pulled through my commute from the twin cities & back,

    Glad you made it back safe and sound.
