Had a great time as usual. It's always a shame when the day flies by. It was nice to meet first-time attendees edwithmj and Peder Johnsen along with the usual faces. My highlight was getting to play some 2-player co-op games with Ed. We got to play Secret Command, Time Soldiers, Bubble Bobble, Ms Pac Man, Super Space Invaders and my favourite, Double Dragon. The end fight between us to see who won the love of Mary Ann was epic! (He won). We also attempted to beat Wonder Boy in Monster Land together, with me playing and him providing invaluable guidance. We nearly managed it but those bloody rising platforms in the final castle screwed us over. We didn't have a competition this year due to lack of time and generally poor organisation on our part. Phil refused my offer to put his reigning championship on the line in a game of Tecmo World Cup 93 It was also cool to see the new homebrew game Sydney Hunter in action, thanks to rupert bringing it along. I would like to give it a proper playthrough but I guess I'll have to wait until it becomes available to buy again. Here's the group photo from the day

Was nice to see everyone again and new faces too. Shame we didn't have a quick competition. Maybe just chose 3 games to play next time, doesn't have to be complicated.

Didnt know this was going on, kinda went away from forums for a bit. (life stuff, lets just say the new job isn't exactly what I pictured)
I have quite a few decent CRts (and some rather nice 4:3 LCDs), if you need em for any in the future bung us a message
