So we're getting ready to move again!

turbokon · 07/19/2013, 10:53 AM

We have been living in an apartment since we've been in Pooler, GA. We're closing on our house on August 5th. Can't wait to have my own game room and a better work area again. Right now my office is in the kitchen with a small work desk next to the frig.

My future game room:)

JoshTurboTrollX · 07/19/2013, 10:57 AM

Holy shit dude! Congrats!! That looks amazing.

We just closed on our house in March. Our original closing date was March 1st but got pushed back two extra weeks. (Which I hear can be pretty normal) Just be patient and enjoy your home when you do wind up getting the keys!

You will have to share pics of before and after the gamer room is complete!!

bob · 07/19/2013, 11:01 AM

Good for you man! I wish I could move.
I would definitely keep the yard like that, mowing sucks.

Nazi NecroPhile · 07/19/2013, 11:02 AM

Congrats! Like Josh said, don't forget to post pics of the game room.

Tatsujin · 07/19/2013, 11:19 AM

HAULY GUGAMOULE!!!

Nando · 07/19/2013, 11:20 AM

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

turbokon · 07/19/2013, 11:52 AM

Thanks, I'm hoping we'll close on time because we're pretty much set to move in on August 5th. I'll be really pissed if the closing gets push out.

I'll post some pics of my game room once we get all situated.

wildfruit · 07/19/2013, 12:07 PM

a house like that in england would probably cost about half to one million pounds depending on location

PunkCryborg · 07/19/2013, 12:23 PM

Congrats! Man I'm dreaming of a garage like that one

HercTNT · 07/19/2013, 12:32 PM

Agreed, congrats!!!

FiftyQuid · 07/19/2013, 01:16 PM

Nice driveway. I wish they used concrete in Canada. I have asphalt and I find it just breaks down. Especially at my house, we have an older home (built in 1968) so it anytime we have work down to the house the driveway takes a beating.

Your new digs look incredible. I'd kill for that gameroom. Congrats!

MotherGunner · 07/19/2013, 09:11 PM

Congrats man! I hope this is me within the year.

PunkCryborg · 07/19/2013, 09:20 PM

what exposure is the front of the house?

Housing over is not that expensive unlike the bigger cities. Ours is just little over 200k us .

Exposure is mostly vinyl siding.

Gorgeous home! I am envious of the ROOMS you will have. I have no extra space. I used to have an extra room, prior to twins, though. Ha!

I think he was asking about sun exposure—what direction does your home face? Some folks have preferences...

turbokon · 07/20/2013, 10:55 AM

My bad, sun rises in front and sets in the back, just how we wanted.

TheClash603 · 07/20/2013, 01:21 PM

Dare you to paint a giant Bonk on your garage door.

Then it will go from a 9.5/10 to a 11/10. Awesome man!

NightWolve · 07/20/2013, 03:25 PM

Congrats turbo, you deserve it!

LOL. He wants to know how the house is exposed to the sun. Is it south, west, east or north facing? Where does the sun set in the afternoon?

turbokon · 07/20/2013, 04:53 PM

Thanks night.

My bad, I never heard it asked that way:)

I'm not a good enough artist but my 10 years old daughter is. She drew this up real quick in the car but she never finish it.

TheClash603 · 07/21/2013, 10:59 PM

That picture is better than what I could do...

...but it definitely looks like Bonk + Ghoulies 2.

SuperPlay · 07/22/2013, 10:01 AM

Good luck with the move. Looking forward to seeing your new games room when it is complete.

wildfruit · 07/22/2013, 01:17 PM

i had a games room
it is now the wife's home office

psychobear · 07/24/2013, 03:43 PM

Congrats, looks like a nice place.

roflmao · 07/28/2013, 11:22 PM

Woot! Congrats!

turbokon · 08/06/2013, 06:25 PM

We closed on our house on Monday and spent the last couple of days moving. Moving from a third floor apartment sucks ass. I'm too old for this shit. I had to hire a couple movers for all the heavy lifting. We pretty much got everything moved except for some clothing and a few things.

Damn, I know that feeling. I am lucky though since I speak Spanish and can direct them very clearly!

Hey late to say it but congrats man, that's a great price for the house, there is a brighter light at the end of the tunnel to pay off a mortgage like that

Good price is right. I have half that house for double the price. Damn, I hate New England.

Deletion · 08/06/2013, 11:41 PM

Congrats, TK. With all that empty space, are you tempted to get even more gaming goodies?

I didn't have that problem, my guys spoke English just fine. My problem were that two of them was bickering back and forth, it was actually pretty comical.

turbokon · 08/08/2013, 08:49 PM

Thanks guys. We've been moving all week. Still have a lot to unpack in the new place and haven't had anytime for obey this week.

Deletion, I'm always looking for goodies:)

turbokon · 08/15/2013, 08:44 PM

Finally got my gaming stuff unpack:)

KnightWarrior · 08/16/2013, 01:57 PM

I only do it with my component mods:) Composite video looks fugly stretch out to 16:9.

roflmao · 08/19/2013, 12:30 AM

Like you're going to get any work done in a room like that.

No, I'm not jealous.

(Yes, I am.)

turbokon · 08/19/2013, 12:05 PM

Thanks Nulltard, yeah I got it from a really cool member here:)

I did some re-arrangement over the weekend. I had to get another shelve to accommodate some of my transformers.

esteban · 08/20/2013, 06:47 AM

Damn, turbokon!

Usually, when I see that much boxed PCE hardware, I'm jealous of tats. BUT HE HAS A TINY APARTMENT AND COVERS EVERYTHING WITH DUSTY TOWELS. You don't have any dirty hand towels blanketing your gear. WHICH MEANS I WON'T BE EXPOSED TO HORDES OF DUST MITES. Which means I want to live in your game room. THERE IS ENOUGH ROOM FOR ME, EVEN IF I GAIN A FEW POUNDS. Sadly, tats doesn't have any room for me in the "multi-purpose room" that serves as his game room/living room/laundry room/bedroom/warehouse.

I'm packing up my things.

turbokon · 08/20/2013, 07:24 PM

Cool Esteban, I'll be expecting you:)
