I am proud to announce that the weekend before the new Disney flick

Tron Legacy hits theaters we are hosting such a huge event.

Starting Saturday Dec 11th at noon, and lasting until the Mayan calendar reads 2012

Donald Hayes, Marc Sellers, and the current Tron WR holder David Cruz

will participate in a 3 way last man standing TRON OFF marathon contest

Walt Disney himself is excited and may even come play Pong and wood rail pinball

 

Like that alone is not enough, RK local promoters JJ Cahill and my son Justin Knucklez

have put together an amazing simultaneous multi marathon event as well.

 

close to half of our games have already been reserved for the elite CAG players

To name a few;

 

Life Magazine alumni Joel West (Chasing Ghosts star) marathoning Frenzy

Current WR holder Laszlo Takacs on Tempest

Current WR holder Jason Cram on Congo Bongo

Berzerk WR holder Steve Wagner to attempt to take down Gorf

Our very own sharp shooter Schwan Howlett marathoning Chiller

DK Champ Tim Sczerby going for Major Havoc and DK attempts

DK Champ Hank Chien looking to regain his crown on DK

DK contender Eric Howard breaking into the DK top 5

Current WR holder Chris Mansfield on Kicker

Top contender John Klinkel marathoning Galaga

Mike (Garden State God) Vacca guaranteed WR on Double Dragon 2

Dan Garafalo top contender on 1943

Jimmy Linderman on Pac-Mania, Eagle and Vanguard

JJ Cahill to regain his Crazy Kong Crown

Zack Lubow marathoning Journey

Ben Falls to up his DK2 WR and many others

Pat Laffaye attempts to up his current Frogger WR (as well as Hang On)

John Dunn to reclaim his Super Sprint WR

Kelly Tharp Marathoning Rootbeer tapper (not 100% confirmed)

Steve Sanders Joust WR attempt (not 100% confirmed)

Ken House Marathoning Robotron without the last two digits reading 80 (not 100% confirmed)

John Mcallister contemplating which game to destroy (not 100% confirmed)

a guy with an American Tie trying to regain his DK title on a single attempt

(not yet 100% confirmed, but a very strong posibliity) ~stranger things have happened

Robert Mruczek promised he would make it if his work schedule permitted (Star Wars? Scramble?)

Walter Day attempting to regain his Make Trax world record

and last but not least;

I plan to shock the arcade world by overtaking the Space Invaders WR as well as the bogus 80's Space Fury WR, Sinistar on true default settings, Break 9999 on Monaco GP (Les Martin showed me how to get past the kill screen) up my Pleiades WR and hopefully have time to break 1 million on Phoenix.....and then to tie Brian Kuh, set 11 other innaugural WR's like Cabal, Surf Planet, Poke a Mole, The Bishop Of Battle, Polybius, Funky Fish, Wii Hula Hoop, Donkey Kong "no jumping challenge", Crazy Kong "blindfolded, The Glob using my feet and last but not least a new high on Squid Search.

 

If any of you guys have a shot at any classic era game WR please contact me asap and I will do my best to get it in the store for you.

 

I am in contact with the peeps at Guinness and we are trying to set the most arcade wr's in one event at one location in a 24 hour period (not really sure if it counts if the marathons last longer) [hopefully Walter is researching that for me]

 

it really should be great... please contact me at [email protected] if interested

 

admission is still $10 for Flashback Fridays (Dec 10th)

and starting Saturday (Dec 11th) at noon - $15 per person for the next two days of free game play. (That still leaves 50+ classics to play for all you non-pros)

For all you fans of Gaming Themed Live Streams

 

 

One more thing, all of this action will be live streamed by three or more web cams.

We will work out a TV Guide like show lineup advertising what games are featured at what times and whatnot.

I am sure most will be on the fly but Dave Hernley www.Aurcade.com is a genius and I am confident that

it will all work out without a hitch.

 

until then;

 

Tomorrow, Saturday October 16th, Dave Hernley and I are going to create a multi-streaming

website which will host our "December to Remember Tron-Off Who's Who Multi-Marathon Extravaganza"

 

We are booked with parties all day but starting at 6pm the kiddies go home and we have two back to back

adult parties. One a low key party til 9pm then immediately after a 21+ Bachelor party debauchery

 

I am possibly going to test our work by another run at Space Fury or Phoenix on one live stream

and maybe a room cam or even a live stream of whatever game Steve Wagner picks.

If we can get my Droid phone in the mix for a third feed we may even broadcast keg stands, beer pong, and

chicks wearing paisties.. should be a blast, please tune in

 

www.justin.tv/richieknucklez at 6pm and then we will lead everyone over to the new multi stream site

through message board posts as well as the chat room on justin tv..

 

see ya'll tomorrow

Seriously?

 

I'd like a shot at Pepper II...a guy on KLOV has one for sale...the TG WR is 917K

 

If you can pull that one off I'll hop the fence for you!
