    I don't think this is telling tales out of school - a pal who worked at Valve told me that during testing, the Little Rocket Man achievement turned out to not trigger because the hitbox in the rocket was too small, so they fixed it and some poor tester had to do it all over again

    The pinball community lost a true legend today. Lyman F. Sheats, Jr. was one of the greatest pinball programmers of all time, and we owe him endless thanks for the joy and inspiration that he brought to pinball and the people around him. RIP Lyman, The Lord of Software. – Ground Kontrol Classic Arcade(e)n

    There's 4 days of effort with one machine, and now I can do three.

    Should the time come that I am "out of tapes", which is quite some ways in the future even with a triple-fist situation, this machine can become a scan/CD-ROM/other ingestion device, so I'm not worried about finding use. It is a good machine, not an overpowered one.

    You are welcome to encourage this kind of ridiculous behavior to the gofundme that pays for my office rent.

    The purpose of the new machine in my office is currently a weird one: It will allow me to ingest two VHS tapes at once, with no slowdown, combining with a machine currently doing one tape to allow me to kill my VHS tape backlog. This was worth the investment.

    Sorry, one other note - take a quick walk around the block before you decide to engage intensively with the guy who is legendary for keeping decades old reciepts

    I have blocked so many friends and acquaintances over this thing, and it's a shame, but at least it didn't happen with something where I was in very bad shape or needed honest people with good advice to get past a crisis. The people I could rely on, were there. So thanks.

    From this point on, people jumping into this space because they heard there's money, are the same people who just now heard there are SSD drives, or that your phone has a voice recognition feature. People slightly out of the loop, who wander in after a while, when no loop is left

    One last piece: This is one of the major groups that hauls truckloads of arcade machines to every year. If you've played games at MAGfest, you probably played something from Save Point's collection.

    They're committed, they're all in, and they're trying to make a one of a kind arcade in a unique area. I'm sure they're open to sponsorship and grants and the rest as well. Contribute what you can, and good luck, kids.

    All their machines are set on unlimited free play and they don't charge admission to play in the arcade. They have an opportunity to get the rest of the building they're in and expand out the games they have available by dozens (they already have them). Here's photos of the back.
