Where the heck is Wisconsin, anyway?

Seriously.

Isn't it a territory in Canada?

JoshTurboTrollX · 11/11/2009, 04:16 PM

I'll be there!

*Kicks Esteban for the MASSIVE insult to Wisconsin* The mapplers are encroaching our area, but their fully distracted by Molson Ice (in sparkys case red wine), and grazing wild donair keep them occupied. ;)

Df going this year. New location makes it even easier to plan other things to do thru out the weekend

Don't even get me started on donair! That post (video) about donair left a bad taste in my mouth.

At least I can't blame Wisconsin for donair.

I'd opt for a falafel and fatoush salad, myself.

FAIL

If I make it back this year I will attend.

esteban · 11/26/2009, 09:15 AM

I still don't understand why anyone is offended.

Wisconsin (and the uncharted territories surrounding it) is a wildlife preserve, correct? That's kool, I support the park systems in the US and Canada.

blueraven · 11/26/2009, 03:22 PM

If I make it back to my lean-to before the wild Moose herd then we'll be ale to continue this conversation.

Wisconsin, Ho!

TurboXray · 11/27/2009, 11:34 AM

Cold-as-fuck Wisconsin?? Great... I bet it's cold even in the summer time

SignOfZeta · 11/27/2009, 01:14 PM

I only go to things like this now if they are close, or if I can somehow combine the event with other cool things in the area. Obviously Wisconsin...isn't the best place for this kind of thing.

Too bad, because I'd like to go some day. They should try moving it around like Bot Con (this year Pasadena, last year Cincinnati). I'd go if it were in Chicago, for example.

jlued686 · 12/10/2009, 12:22 PM

It's just outside of Milwaukee, which isn't THAT far from Chicago. And is Cincinnati really that much better than Milwaukee? I mean...it's freakin' Cincinnati... In addition, the guys who put this on are all from the Milwaukee area and it's a big enough challenge to get it organzed - while working their day jobs and leading their lives - without having to deal with a changing location.

Anyway, I'll be there with the DGR crew again. Same booth, same shenanigans. See you there!

JoshTurboTrollX · 12/10/2009, 02:58 PM

This time my goal is to into the show and purchase my first piece towards rebuilding a Turbo collection. At the time of the show it will have been two years since I've owned anything Turbo.

so anyone of you looking to sell a TG16 or a Duo bring them and I'll take em off your hands.!!!

That donair video was supposed to leave a bad taste in your mouth. Robert's Donair is infamous here. It's the last resort of the desperate. lol

Now excuse me. All this typing is keeping me from my Molson Ice. lol

Infamous you say--thank goodness

.

I loved watching Degrassi back in the 80's (it aired on PBS here). I'll always respect Canada for Degrassi. No, I'm not joking. Loved that show.

guyjin · 03/21/2010, 04:51 PM

So the MGC is next weekend. Who's still going?

We had an issue last year of some members not seeing each other.
My suggestion: click and drag over the area to the left of your posts (i.e. where your user name and icon are.) so that they are both selected. then go into your file menu and select the "print..." option. Choose "print selection" on the dialog box.

When you come, use a lanyard or safety pin or something to hang/show the printed page so that it's visible. This way, we can ensure we are recognizable to each other

JoshTurboTrollX · 03/23/2010, 06:57 PM

I will be there late Saturday night. Any Saturday night parties going on? anyway- On Sunday I will be the big tall fat man with the Tandy T-shirt on. Probably drooling over 16-bits PC engine selection. I've got a TG16 unit now and I need some softs!!!

lol, who else is all coming?? 4 mOAR DAYS!!

jlued686 · 03/25/2010, 10:49 AM

Unfortunately, I won't be able to be there this year, but the rest of the Drunken Gamers Radio/Robot Panic guys will. Once again, they'll have a booth (the one with the giant robot) in the main room. Stop by for contests and prizes throughout the weekend.

Tatsujin · 03/25/2010, 11:09 AM

unfortunately I won't make it this yeas as well.

Can't blame you; If I were in Japan, I wouldn't wanna visit Wisconsin either

Mobius · 03/26/2010, 06:43 PM

I'll be there tomorrow, can't wait! I'll have a Digital Press badge with my username on it, so keep an eye out.

And JoshTurboTrollX-16... I believe it was you that sold me a copy of Rondo two MGCs ago. You're not getting it back.
