This came up on another arcade forum in the UK, that this would be really early in the morning for you guys...ugh.

Well, I will keep this in mind when I schedule other guys from April out.  Maybe I will try to do a weekend where the time difference isn't as big of a deal, if those creators are ok with that.

The next guy I will try to schedule will be the creator of Mad Planets.

I apologize...I didn't put it in the right place.

I will remember that for next time.  Thanks for moving.

All the rest / New Arcade Game Forum - CoinOpSpace.com

Come and join us at a brand new classic arcade game forum at CoinOpSpace.com. It's kind of like MySpace, but only in how it works, not the type of people that are there or how it looks.

Tighter integration with photo galleries, specific user groups that have galleries and photos together, one massive section for videos related to gaming, customizable profiles with full graphics for your own profile page, and integrated blogs where you can essentially have your own hosted, searchable blog for free.



There is group specifically for Laser Disc collectors.  The DLF site is amazing...there certainly will always be more guys here...but if you join my site...you can chat with like minded guys here;

http://classicarcades.ning.com/group/laserdiscgames

Drop by and say hello. Not looking to spam this group, just looking to info others of a really great new site. If you don't like it, you don't have to join.

Thanks for reading.

~Jeff
