LGR at conventions in 2025
Added 2025-02-23 18:00:23 +0000 UTCGreetings, all!
I've had a number of folks asking if I'll be able to attend any conventions this year, what with the post-hurricane home repairs and all the nonsense that came with that.
The answer is yes! Although not as many as I'd like.
At the moment I'm confirmed to attend three shows:
VCF East: April 4-5 in Wall, New Jersey
Southeast Game Exchange: July 19 in Greenville, South Carolina
VCF Midwest: September 13-14 in Schaumburg, Illinois
Note that the dates listed are the days that I plan to attend. The actual shows may be longer than that, but I can't guarantee I'll be there on those days due to how scheduling and travel plans worked out.
I would've loved to return to things like Midwest Gaming Classic, VCF Southwest, Retro World Expo, and Long Island Retro this year... Plus visit some new shows that I've never attended! But annoyingly things are still a bit tight with planning ahead and needing to set aside cash for the home repairs and renovation.
Regardless though, I hope to see some of you at these this year. I'm stoked to get away from all this stuff at home for a bit and hang out!

Looking forward to seeing you at southeast game exchange again! One of these year I hope to make it to VCF East

2025-03-23 15:03:10 +0000 UTCFigured I would try one more time. I have that PC Lightgun that you said you wanted. Email me at william.clemons@gmail.com if you want it. You can have it. I found it at a goodwill years ago and would like to see it in a good home. If anyone knows a better way to contact him please email me.

2025-03-12 01:00:11 +0000 UTCHave you ever/ever considered attending MAGfest? They typically have relatively extensive computer museum set up so it would be a natural fit imo.

2025-02-25 14:40:09 +0000 UTCThat's one I really wanted to get to this year! It's riiiight on the edge of maybe being possible but not 100% yet. Really depends on how things with the house end up faring.

2025-02-23 20:29:20 +0000 UTCEy, glad you're able and willing to come back to VCFMW this year! Trust me, the Schaumburg venue is *miles* better than the Elmhurst one.

2025-02-23 20:03:29 +0000 UTCIf you're driving to Wall for VCF East, take US 301 instead of the Interstate. It'll take you right to the Delaware Memorial Bridge, bypassing all of the traffic in the DC area. And maybe you could stop here in Hampton Roads for some thrifting.

2025-02-23 18:56:29 +0000 UTCSee you at vcfmw then! I should have my cursed Atom build over at the Wisconsin Computer club table (it's an industrial PC I put in a gosh awful blue 90s case). We are going to shoehorn as much random crap into it as we can!

2025-02-23 18:49:30 +0000 UTCI’m due to visit NJ from the UK in April but sadly it’s later in the month, was briefly excited that the times would align and I could stop by! Hope the events go well

2025-02-23 18:17:47 +0000 UTCMr LGR, I have that pc light gun if you want it. I sent an email to you through Gmail. It is an old address from a transaction we did so many years ago on racketboy.com. if you no longer have that email send me one at william.clemons@gmail.com. I can resend you the pics I took. Let me know either way if you can please. If anyone else here knows where I can contact him please let me know.

2025-02-23 18:07:07 +0000 UTCI'll likely be staying in Canada for the year but I'll look forward to seeing videos of the events! We have a few events up here but nothing like what you guys have.
