[ML-General] [General] Retro Gaming and Computing Night '16 on Sat, Nov 12!

[smeeon at gmail.com]

Scott Hale is interested in bringing a real analog video arcade cabinet and a pinball machine if there's room. It would probably be best left near the big roll up door for ease of load in and load out. 

Is this something we can accommodate?

We may even have a LAN setup for old school games like Duke Nukem 3D and Starcraft. We are allowing all games and systems released pre-2000, so feel free to bring your own systems and/or games. Challenge Tyler to a game of Joust on the arcade machine if you feel like getting dunked on! 😉
