We have a winner. Greg is correct that was me barely visible in the first pic watching dan loosen win his way to jagfest prize package. and yes I was taking breather at the AVC table(entrance table) in pic #5. I wish greg didn't say anything because it would have been a great contest to do. Dan Iacovelli

Wrong again whats your next guess?

btw: I have link to harrys pics on the report page from the show. (it's also included in the VGS yahoo group links) Dan Iacovelli

Nope and Nope... Heh No help from the peanut gallery(in other words if you were there to give away the answer). Here's a hint I said two pictures. Dan Iacovelli

I'm in two of the pics can you spot me? Dan Iacovelli

Thanks Harry, for posting those pics. Dan Iacovelli (lets keep those pics coming people)

my guess is yes, as long somebody wants to organizine it. Dan Iacovelli

not yet curt. Dan

thats cool joe, I've been playing my weird al CD and pac-man fever cd at fest2k2 ,mwc and vgs this year(well only weird al at mwc at vgs) Dan Iacovelli

inky, did you pull out your computer because of what you got from SCAT at the show on saturday? (nick told me that you brought some disks from Scat and joined the mailing list) Dan Iacovelli

I have just put up the report on VGS at the VGS website(actually it's link to the events page where I have the report at) (I would like to hear reports and see some pics from others as well) VGS website: http://avc.atari-users.net/Events/FestVGS.html Dan Iacovelli

I would like any help you can give me for next year(that goes for anybody else also) PM your ideas. my bro came up with an a good idea for next year as well pm and I'll tell you. Dan

that was me: so you must be brent? right. the entrance table was the one with the 2600 on it. (somebody asked me about the supercharger but I couldn't find the person because somebody side tracked me about something) Dan

hopefully some others will have pics from the show I didn't have my digicam with me. Dan

unfouturantly, I was only able to give three away(one was part of the prize package and two was just given away) so I only have 7 left. we didn't have enough people for raffles or extra tourneys. luckly I came up with an idea, since I have so many programs left over I can give the program and a guide and name badge to the first seven people who requst a copy of the program package. (thats if it's ok with you joe) I'll send you a copy of the program and a name badge in a week or so. Dan

I had to wait until my sibs got back from office depot with copies of the the program,they brought the tape and put it on the building upstairs and I had the ones down stairs. I did want to put in the hotel itself,but Ihad nobody to watch my table. Dan (btw:which person were you at the show)

they rent off the rooms in the office building. I did mention it on the list that it's in the office building. thats where most the rooms are for the meetings. they had the elevators so I don't think that much a problem. but you have to look at the price wise for the room: 400.00 a day thats the best price I heard. we would have gotten more people if I went to the malls by there and have flyers over there. oh well. next year is another matter. Dan

one quick note: the trip to safariland was cancled at last minute since I figured that we didn't have a firm confirmation on it and I didn't feel it would be right to collect the money.(plus we didn't have enough people interested in it anyways) Dan

if anybody from Atariage that came to the show took pictures please post them or put up at your website. Dan

it was good to see some people from AA to come to my first try at the show. if you guys wanted your AA names on the badges you could have told me I would have wriiten it down. Re: next years show I am still working out the plans for it. (I'll prob have it at the same location) Dan

just want to say despite a low turn out the first annual VGS turned out pretty good. (once again I forgot to bring my digicamera,but I belive some others took pictures though) saddlythe schedule I had planned orginally didn't come out good I still have lots of items left over. it was good to see goat store and rpm-games. we had two people with tables outside the room. my orginal planned layout was passed soI just if people neeed the power and placed them by the outlets. we did have three winners for touneys: Dan loosen was the big winner of the jagfest prize package(AUN t-shirt,30.00 Giftcertificate from pack rat vg and a copy of the DP collectors guide) others winners was paul zimmerman who won the space treat competition (copy of space treat delux and a Atari age t-shirt) Rob M won the 2k2 mwc edition of warring worms and an atari age t-shirt (he didn't enter but he played space treat and I figured since nobody entered the Warring worms tourney I figured give the person who came in second in space treat) Tom L had his Lynx collection displayed and brought a good drawl to jagfest area. it was good hear bud melvin play his banjo along with his gameboy. bohus had a good display. over all it was pretty good for a first time for show. (theres a chance I might have it again next year) I'll have a full report up on my website in a three or four days. Dan Iacovelli

I know, I do what I can for the fests I'm heading up(MWC and VGS) while fest at MWC was more down scaled,Fest at VGS will make up for that. I really hope fest at CGE goes well. Dan Iacovelli

man looks like carl is stealing the thunder from the other jagfest tour locations . any ways looks like Jagfest at CGE is going be known as the granddady of of the Jagfest tour. Dan Iacovelli

A quick update on the table locations: there will be 35 tables inside the room and 15 tables outside of the room in the hall way. if you pre-paid or reserved a table you are guaranteed a table inside (the people who didn't reserve or pre-pay you will get a choice of the remaining tables) Dan Iacovelli
