I went to CAX 10 years ago and played Marble Man for about ten seconds before getting bored and moving on. You're not missing much, it was cancelled for a good reason.
safestuff has helped with some rare dumps. The problem with Marble Man is that he had to promise that he wouldn't dump the roms before he could get the board. Due to the attacks he's had since, it wouldn't surprise me if he'd never allow anyone to dump anything he has. Aaron did a lot of work to get him on board, which you've all destroyed with your outrage.
