I can agree with that, the fact that it's hard to put a nick to a face. (not just on PR, but any forum out there) The only member I (knowingly) met last Monday was Squidvicious. If I met any of the other guys, feel free to let me know who it was I spoke with. :D

I forgot to post a big THANK YOU to Dan, Adam, and everyone else who had anything to do with making Me and Mike's first TOPL such a fantastic experience! It was easily one of the most fun times we've ever had playing pinball. Everyone there was very friendly, and made us feel very welcome. (PS...

No problem Mike. :) I'll try it again later today, and see if I can clear things up. Thanks!

A bit more of success! I got a VP8 table to run, Adams Family works for me. :)

Oops, I thought I replied before I left home... I probably forgot to hit 'submit''... Mike (dubplate) and I are heading to our first TOPL night tonight! What's the etiquette? Should we bring anything with us? Snacks or drinks? Any advice from seasoned TOPL'ers? Thanks!

I made a little progress, but not much. I still can't load ROMs like Congo, or the AfM I D/L'd today. I can however, get the 2 demo games to run: Top Speed & Tutorial. When I try to load AfM, I get this error: I know I'm missing something, I just can't figure out what... I even D/L'd the...

Damn fine tutorial! It actually answered many of my questions. However, I still had some problems. (My problem may be I had previous versions of other VP/PM etc. Maybe it's muddying things up? Also, the one I D/L'd seems to be a slightly newer version... VPinball912_Full.zip ... could that be an...

Spiderman 3 broke my Heart! I still haven't seen the last 5 minutes. I turned it off before it finished.

Nice. I'm supposed to have it off, but a coworker asked me if I could switch Monday for Tuesday. I might have to say no to him :P I got my approval today. :D Thanks everyone!

I'm going to go through this tutorial when I get home tonight. I've tried several times to set up one of the emulators, but can never get it figured out. I think my biggest issues was trying to figure out the paths, and what/where to put the ROMs. Hopefully this one will let me get it up and...

Thanks SquidVicious. I just submitted my application, so I'll look into the possibility of a pre-Dec 10 meeting.

Very cool. Thanks Chris! Ajax would be a bit far, and I'll have to find out were Ancaster is. (If I were to guess, out past Hamilton?) Brampton (and especially) Mississauga sound doable though. Thanks, if you don't really don't mind, I'll pencil in the 10th!

Wow, I didn't expect to see so many pages of discussion when I got home from work! I 100% agree on the importance of the host's privacy. I wondered how that worked. I didn't realize there would be that many people at a session! I was never too concerned about not hearing back. Honestly, at my...

From what Dubplate and I discovered, it's quite out of date, at least in the places we visited. We hit all of the places in Oakville, and most in Burlington... the only place that actually had machines (albeit different ones than were listed) was Hopedale Bowl in Oakville. (Super Mario and...

Is it hard to get accepted into TOPL? I sent an email quite a while ago, but never heard back. Same goes for my buddy. Tim

That's how Mike and I learned of the site.

I know sites like these can take money to run smoothly. There are people like me who like to donate to sites they feel deserve their support. A little 'make donation' button on the bottom of the front page might be a good idea. :)

Nice! I dropped you one earlier, Warlock. Thanks for the consideration! Don't feel the need to rush a decision to sell or not. Even though I'd prefer have my own machine sometime in the next few seconds, I can wait for the right machine to fall into my lap. :D Thanks guys. Tim

Can you make it so that links work like this: Atari Race Drivin' and not like this: http://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=9226 I'd like to be able to select a word or two, and attach the link to it. It takes too long to do it manually! Tim

I bet I've been playing pinball for way less than any of you! :P I started sometime around spring this year. In high school I played way more games like Mortal Kombat, Killer Instinct etc. Hell, I actually taught myself to drive standard transmission on an Atari Race Drivin' machine. I caught...
