Dont think so, I will rummage in my prize box for a suitable prize. Gold painted MS cart on a stand? Banner for the Facebook event/TNOG site post, showing so that you lot can comment encase you dont approve A golden joypad would be awesome. You can get the classic Master System font here: www.smspower.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=61619#61619 for your banner. Use overly tight kerning if you can.

Dont have a spare knackered pad, hate using a working one
One thing i could not find is a blank Master system box art. same goes for Megadrive (interesting thing, if you invert the squares on the MD or MS you get the MS or MD squares)

Just to say, I called the venue the other day to confirm that they're still expecting us and it's all fine.
So what's the plan? Is Phil helping dbloke transport gear? (4/5 TV's should be enough) We can get in from 12pm so are you guys good to get there for that time?
Anyone fancy taking charge of the games comp again this year?

It'd be nice to make organising the competition be the price of winning the previous year, but playgeneration isn't signed up yet...

I can be there for 12. Tempted to get a train this year then I can have more than just 1 beer.
Let me know if anything is needed hardware/ software wise otherwise I won't bring anything.
Ian, is your scoring template easy to edit in terms of numbers of people, names and games? I could possibly take this on, just conscious I don't want to commit to something I don't have time to sort out properly then let everyone down. Really busy at work lately and no spare days until the event,

i have one ready to go if you want it?
I'll be getting to the event about 2pm, I remember last year we needed a computer to sort the scoring out, i am sure we could get something compatible with a phone or tablet, my phone is a samsung (same one i had last year) and am pretty sure if i make something on excel i can import it onto the phone and use it on polaris

Scoring is pretty easy so long as you keep it simple. The organisation is more in choosing decent games and making people play them in a timely fashion. I used a computer but paper would work just as well.

couple of ideas for competition:
1. theme centred around ms games that are also on other formats but the sms does them well (micro machines, f1 etc) 2. theme centred around ms exclusive games, anyone new to the system can see what they are missing 3. theme centred around really common games, if someone liked the games they could buy all for about £10 (enduro racer, sonic 1 etc) 4. a really special competition dedicated to ms collecting, including things like digger chan
