+fractal Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 I have an idea for an event cache, and I'm looking to see how many people would be interested in participating. I have a virtual cache called Top Score. I was thinking of having a 'Top Score Challenge'... $3 to enter.. That would cover the cost of games, some sort of prize for the winner, and some food/drink afterwards. Here's a little sample(there will be more than 8 people) line-up that I made. As for the selection of games to play, I was thinking that each pair of players would choose their favorite game, and then let a coin toss decide....or...? Would anyone be up for this? Maybe in July...? -fractal -=-=-=-=-=-=- N 45? 30.ish W 122? 58.ish Quote Link to comment
+Family O Foxes Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 If it's a Saturday......Sounds like fun! Or, we will be up there Thursday, June 26. Maybe we could get together then. Jay - FoF Quote Link to comment
+fractal Posted June 17, 2003 Author Share Posted June 17, 2003 I'm thinking a Saturday would be best... Hopefully we can work it out to be a Saturday that most of the Intel cachers don't work. -fractal Quote Link to comment
+Quantum Mechanic Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 When I read your first post on this topic, I was like....here we go again..they're going to do it on a Friday or Wednesday. But, I am very pleasently suprised about picking a date when Sassquatch and I will not be working. You are da man fractal! -Quantum Mechanics: The dreams stuff is made of.- Quote Link to comment
+blindleader Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 What a great excuse to make my first geotrek to Portland, to spend nice Northwest summer day in a dark noisy smelly arcade. I'm there! um with a few reservations... Friends coming to visit late July or early August would put the kibosh on it. The only game I'm really good at is the ancient 'Missile Command', so if there is still one there in good working order and there is someone foolish enough to compete against me at it, then...

+fractal Posted June 17, 2003 Author Share Posted June 17, 2003 Ok... Here's a link with some more details, and also a form for your suggestions. If interested, please check it out! -fractal Quote Link to comment
+Grandpa Rocks & Grouchy Gramma Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 Sounds cool. One or both of us would be up for it. I've gone to look for myself, if I should return before I get back, please keep me here. Quote Link to comment
+GeoNap Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Sounds cool to me... I have visions of Galaga on the brain! It's been a LONG time since I've played Galaga... I still LOVE it though. Quote Link to comment

I still LOVE it though. I was literally addicted to video games when I was a pre-teen/teen (and we're talkin' early/mid-80's!) I fondly remember Tempest and Centipede and the sit-down Pacman machines. When Dragon's Lair came out, we were all mesmerized. How technology has advanced! To be honest, I am a sore loser, and may choose not to participate. It'd be fun to watch, however. Doug might like to participate. Maybe those that wish could get together earlier and find some of the downtown-ish caches? --laurak OMG, they have Q-bert and Frogger and Asteroids?!?! I may have to re-think my position... maybe I should bust out the ol' GBA and polish up on the Frogger... Temporarily French Polynesia's most prolific geocachers! Quote Link to comment

Maybe you had more quarters than i did, but that game sucked total butt. That was the first game that required TWO quarters, right? As i remember it, you put 50 cents in the machine, then you saw about eleven seconds of cartoon, then you lost--through no fault of your own. i HATED that game. I'd rather play that weird 'Journey' game based on the band by the same name. all rights reserved, all wrongs reversed Quote Link to comment
