I'm bringing two test fixtures capable of testing nine different board sets. Two tons of parts, shirts, hats, mods, test equipment, tools, and repair equipment. One very cute dog, and lots of excitement for a great show!

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Quoted from APB_Enterprises:

Hey, suddenly I am not available on Tuesday!
Andrew

LOL!

This year I think will actually be significantly easier than past. Things are pared down a bit, better tubs, and everything is in one, very little loose stuff.

Still a lot of stuff though. And the damn test/repair equipment and fixtures are just so friggin heavy.

Quoted from metallik:

Fix your shit, Mike...

Unfortunately it's too late for this. It's the same story every year. The only reason the game room and vendor hall had anything over a few this year was because of Andrew and crew and the people willing to help him, and they all get treated like shit.

I like Mike, outside of Expo. For whatever reason Expo turns him into a raging jackass. My constant response to his yelling at me while fixing HIS games, for free, was "don't be a dick". Just don't be a dick, it's really that simple.

People are fed up being treated like shit and being yelled at. This year should have had epic numbers of attendees. There hasn't been this many new game reveals at a show since the heyday of pinball in the ninties. Yet attendance looked to be the worst ever. Every other show in the country is growing by leaps and bounds with record attendance, but Expo keeps declining. There's one reason for that.
