MAMEWorld Forums - The Loony Bin

>Your blog hasn't been updated in like two years. Even I blog more than you!

Wellllll...... you're right. Here's my litany of excuses:

1. It was SUPPOSED to have a RAM controls starwars yolk... and after waiting over a year for it, I settled for a junked cp from turbo sub... which was o...k... but not what I wanted... kinda killed my motivation to "show off" the dirty old looking yolk.

2. Gatinha, who used to play on the cab hours a day keeping her skills sharp to hold a couple world records on arcade games, gave up that pursuit against some geek who keeps one-upping her every time she reset the record (when she does it its kewl, when he does it he's a geek, you understand the difference right?). BTW, do you know how rough it is having a wife who can kick your ass at most games? Not beat you now and then... I mean just humiliate you,toy with you, taunt you, let you almost win then dash your hopes in spectacular fashion.

3. I had another baby.

4. My cab got crushed in my recent move (note to others... don't ship a cab next to a gun safe and expect the safe not to wiggle some extra room for itself at your cab's expense).

5. I fixed it to work, but with a wrong sized monitor, and generally looks like hell so I'm not keen on photographing it and seeing it on crapmame.

6. I'd rebuild it except I'm hand carving a custom set of mahjong tiles (arcade themed... should be awesome should I ever finish... very labor intensive... 144 unique tiles, hand carved then hand painted).

7. I got side-tracked after I picked up a couple actual coin-op cabs to clean up.

8. MameWorld has sucked out my soul... you bastards.

But thanks for checking it out... nice to see someone still looks at it.

ETA: Or did you mean the ROM SETI blog? See above, similar reasons.
