For any of you who think that Scott "Safestuff" Evans is still throwing straight dice and might some day release Marble Man, despite it having been literally years since he's contributed anything to any MAME developer, get this: Apparently he posted an auction on eBay for a Batman arcade PCB, using a photo of a clearly prototype board, to artificially drive up prices. He then sent the winner of the auction a standard retail Batman board, then gave some lame excuse of "Oh, I sold that board already, it must have been an old picture".
Although this transpired on a private e-mail list, I feel the behavior is unconscionable enough that it should be called out publicly.
