Allow myself to introduce.....myself

[Torin]

Hey arcadeonites, Torin here.  I Just joined DLF here after stumbling upon it looking for a Gorf high score save kit and found Tyrem's awesome thread.  I've been collecting arcades for about 4 years now and yes, I'm an addict.  I currently live in Idaho, have a wife and three daughters and am a middle school technology teacher and do the IT for our school.  I grew up in Palo Alto, CA where I spent my youth (and quarters) in the arcades, pizza places, malls and such.  

I'm on KLOV regularly and I have about 20 games right now.  My current projects are a Gorf and a Pole Position cockpit.  I haven't ever owned a Dragon's Lair but I've always been a huge fan and would love to add one to my collection some day.

Anyway, it's great to find another awesome forum with great people such as yourselves and hopefully, I'll meet some of you at the Grinkers event?  Thanks and I'll see y'all around.

Welcome. Cool that you are here because of the savekit.
Talked to Jochen this morning. he wants to make sure all the errors are gone... so that we don´t have a plane full of arcade celebs from the states flying over to germany to kick our butts.

   I'm hardly an arcade celeb.  But actually, it might give me another good reason to go to Germany.  I've always wanted to go there.  My family is from Munich, my dad was born there and I've never been.   

I'm hoping to take my wife there in the next 5 years.
