Fantastic job on this!

Wow great pics, esp. those of the deserted buildings !!!

One thing about the donation pot/piggy bank Pong:

As mentioned before we chose this year to do an "all inclusive" entry price of 20 Euro, instead of the 5 Euro plus voluntary donation....

So why is there still a "donation Pong" ?

Well, there are a good number of visitors that are not officially registered, like members of the music band that will rehearse across the street again and will probably play some games after the rehearsal, close friends from the Eurocade team etc. So, this is our main target audience this year for donations. As a paying registered visitor don't feel obliged to make a donation. However, some visitors already mentioned that 20 Euro is a crazy low price for a day like this incl. drinks and food and well....if you feel that way feel free to make a small donation. If we will have a positive result this year, we will save the money to invest it in next Eurocade 2013 !

So, we won't be "putting it under your nose" like last year

Okay, time to finish this thread with just a few words that i have to say.

Big thanks to everyone for your nice comments at Eurocade 2012.

It was amazing how many reactions and nice words i received for this build.

It was my pleasure to build this, and i can only say that i have done it with pleasure!

Only one time during dinner we had a vertical collapse, and by wiggling the chassis and some beats to the cabinet that was working again.

Beside that one failure, it worked flawless for 2 days straight, and i think it did its duty  

Again; Thanks everyone !

If you just tuned in, here is the complete build: http://youtu.be/YRWhe6EHFZk as a slideshow with some music.

Take a drink, relax and enjoy !
