Amiwest 2009

Just got back, it's almost 3AM!!!

I didn't make it back until after 7:45am, as I could not stay awake on the road and had to pull over to sleep for one hour half way up the mountain.

I need to go back to sleep now.

Thanks to Omnicron10 and Pan1k, I could not have done any of it without their help.

I am almost recovered from the lack of sleep and the long drive, but it was all worth it.

Did the package arrive in time?

Yes, it did Jim, just barely.  Sorry I did not mention your contribution to the prize donations yet.  Let me thank you, DiscreetFX, AmiKit, and Bill Bosari's friend from the Retro Computer Museum for the donation of Amiga gear for prizes given out to the Amiga Game Competition winners.

Jim, you are a scholar and a gentleman to donate items when you are in the middle of your going out of business sale.  Thanks again.

Yup, I think the first video is being posted tonight -- Steven Solie making the Hyperion/Amiga, Inc. settlement announcement and fielding questions.

     Ack!  I was lame at the game.  More practice definitely needed after all these years being away from it.  Funny, though, how Bill Bosari picked it up just like that and got the top score on it.  

Glad you made it back safe and sound,

Bill Bosari made a boast at the end of the AmiWest 2009 Show that he still would have won, no matter which games we chose to use in the competition.  All you Amiga gamers out there should take that as the gauntlet being thrown down for next year's competition.  I want to see lots more of you showing up to give Bill a run for the money and see if you can take him down a peg. :roflmao:
