Classic Gaming Expo 2K2
Part VIII

Work in progress...

...sorry, I'll be attending a conference in Portugal (SAPPHIRE Euro) for a week and don't have time right now to finish this up.

At least I was able to get the low-res versions of these pics after the mega hard drive crash back :( I'll have to do some more Frankenstein surgery after I'm back from Europe, maybe I can get parts of the hi-res pics back as well.

A note about the Dig Dug Drop: a) my Coolpix 990 has the flash very close to the lense, thus dust particles in the air close to the lense really screw-up the picture, well known problem. b)  the pushing and shoving was incredible, me and some other folks in the middle were just laying on the floor and I stuck an arm out and took pictures, needless to say the auto-focus couldn't keep up with the pushing and shoving :)  Hey, it was fun! And the big guy next to me had a unique strategy: just stuff some Dig Dugs under the shirt, hunker down and let time pass :)

Anyway, I'll update this page and make corrections/additions to some of the other pages in 1 1/2 weeks when I'm back. Thanks to AtariAge for posting a link to my website, that box was getting hammered (and my CS ping rates went through the roof), and I got many pos. comments about the pics. Thanks guys! It was fun at CGE 2K2 and we (the NWCGE folks) will be back next year!

Look at all the freaking dust!!!	That's Lee in the middle!
