We will have plenty I think. hopefully leaving work in an hour and a half have brought a load of stuff which probably wont be used (oh well, nevermind) and a pile of spares for Jono (he got burgled at the end of last year) if anyone wants to test out the beer and recommend a decent real ale I would appreciate it

I got home about 8.30pm. I had a great time this year, I'm pleased coming 3rd out of 10th. Congrats to Ian and it was nice to see everyone again....Looking forward to see my "Olympic Gold" climax face very soon!!! Oh by the way just had a go of Paperboy IAN and look at my score... It might not end in 80, but this proves your score doesn't have to end with 50 or 00 in Paperboy. It's ok I accept your apology... Attachments:

Well guys its fair to say today was awesome (even if i had to do a half day at work and get up at 6am), you guys are awesome, even if my gaming skills are utterly shameful, my defence is that the only game we played today that I have played more than once was world grand prix.
I've decided I'll be buying an everdrive, not sure when I'll be able to raise the funds but I'll be selling off some of my less desireable/stuff with sentimental value to fund the cost, if it takes till playexpo then it takes till then, oh and if you are going to playexpo then i'll see you there
as a side question, i have freeze sms on my computer, the roms are .sms files, will these be everdrive compatible?

Had a really good day, can't believe how quickly it went. I think the venue this year was perfect for the amount of people. I'm impressed with myself for coming joint 4th in the comp. I think came 1st in Olympic Gold and 2nd in World Grand Prix. Not quite sure about the rest. I completed Putt & Putter again despite it not being in the comp this year and also managed to beat Stu at Pro Wrestling, not sure how as I was mainly just randomly pressing buttons. Someone please upload the video of Phil on Olympic Gold haha

Someone please upload the video of Phil on Olympic Gold haha that might make sega8bit nsfw lol if its being uploaded we need the 70s porn flick soundtrack maybe we could edit in some other bits, i was going to suggest a plumber, but that brings up images of mario, taking this in a whole other direction

I will gladly eat a piece of your humble pie. I think I was so desperate to get my hands on that glorious golden trophy that I resorted to complaining tactics Want another write up doing? I dont mind but might be a week or so before I can do it (am putting together examples of event and game reviews for my new site) It's up to you mate. You wrote last year's report so perhaps someone else should do it this time? It's only fair. I thought the venue was pretty much perfect and I'll definitely be looking to go back there again. Thanks to everyone for turning up and making the day so enjoyable. Extra thanks to everyone who brought equipment and Cauterize for helping me out with video footage. The video is now live!

I should have really added in a credit for 'The Nights of Gaming' but only thought of it after the video had rendered. My apologies dbloke!

Great video Ian, maybe my bit is not one to show the parents... Will you be able to upload the results at some point? I'd like to check your scores

Nice vid Ian, really enjoyed watching that! Had a great time at the event as always and it's also rekindled my passion for the SMS! Beaten 3 SMS games today, World Grand Prix, Paperboy and X Men Mojo World. I really struggled on World Grand Prix on the day but I blasted round all 12 tracks on Level 3 difficulty today, Sod's law! I really should start practising, might stand a chance at winning then!!!
