What an interesting site. Strange. I cannot even find what CGCC stand for on their pages. California Gambling Control Commission? Chinese General Chamber of Commerce?
I believe it's Classic Game Collectors of Canada

Ha! You're an evil genius!

P.S. Excellent work on the music for the Megacart. :)

Golan - is that you on the left or the right? not that it matters, just trying to place a face/body to a name...

Thanks Brian for hosting another great get together and as usual a good bunch of guys, the pizza was awesome (thanks gklinger) with those damn hot peppers, and the Lord or the Rings pinball kicked my ass yet again!!!
I had a great time, even though i fell asleep on the sofa as well then woke and everyone was gone :lol:

Golan - you happen to look quite similar to my friend Jeremy here in Rochester. damn, pizza with (i'm guessing) yellow banana peppers?! that's my favorite. :( then again, the worst pizza i've ever eaten in my life (or at least started to eat :) ) was at the Toronto airport. i really couldn't believe it, how can you get pizza wrong? :)

man, i wish i was closer to you guys - lots of things going on up there all the time. looks like fun! for some reason though, i can't picture the girls being there - looks like the typical sausage party. :)

Yes, actually it was peperoni and yellow/red hot peppers for one pizza and peporoni, mushrooms and I think bacon on the other 2 foot long pizzas.

2 1/2 - 3 hours (3 1/2 from Barrie when I go) isn't that bad but your tolls (2 I believe) in the USA enroute are a pain in the a** and would be worth it for WOC man!

Ya, it would of been very horrible have those 2 women around distracting us from our games and making the laminate wood floors slippery to make us spill our beers :lol: :wink:

I played quite a few (4,000 to choose from! :shock:) - I think that one was called Tiger Heli.

It's hard to go wrong with bacon and hot peppers on a pizza. Look for a similar (albeit larger) pizza order for the World of Commodore 'after party'. That reminds me, I gotta get someone coming up from the U.S.A. to bring me some Cherry Coke. That would make the weekend perfect. :)

Looks like you guys had a great time again. So sorry I missed it, but the 2 parades in the cold had sucked the energy out of me for the day.

Centallica: Glad you had no problem finding a 4th for Iron Maiden! I didn't think you would, who would turn that down? ;)
