Me and the GF loved last years event, we took the CDTV CR, Nyx and A1K and had so many people asking about the nyx. Was funny seeing goths play kiddies games on the A1K too!

Only thing I would say needs to be done this time is to have one of each Amiga on the table with some info on each one (Spec sheet and maybe some upgrades)
We could make a killer display! (Last year there was a line by the cos players that had a basic history of computing but had an A1200 where a A500 should have been... it did make us look super advanced though!

Anyhow me and Beckie will be there and Im going to try and drag some friends up this time too.

 

[johnim]

oli i think that a1200 may have been 1 of either mine or duncans as my a500 died there and had nothing to put other than a a1200

it will be good to see you again what colour hair this time tho

 

[Oli_hd]

it will be good to see you again what colour hair this time tho

lol I got marked down on the work appraisal for my hair colour so ive gone natural.
That said, we shall see.

 

[woodycool]

I'll definitely be going.
Just to confirm, are Amibay supplying kit again?
If so, I'd like to supply Amigas, Amstrad CPCs and maybe more.
This time round, I've got my own screens, better transport and more room to bring stuff

 

[cosmicfrog]

So are we or are we not going have an official presences at replay ???

just feel that we should be there for this country`s premier retro event
Is it a lack of motivation, or time constraints or a case of not asking or even worse a case of not been wanted.

admittedly past events have been a little unorganised so plz dont let us miss this opportunity show our prized machines off just becuse we cant organise ourselfs cos we know we can, we aslo know at least 20 of us will be there and we have more experience now so can some1 plz delegate or just answer the question with a yes or an no. WILL AMIBAY HAVE AN official presences at replay ??

 

[Justin]

i forget, which show is this? i am going to the one in October, is that this one?oh:

 

[User1301]

Yep - October

AFAIK we are definitely there as Amibay (same as last year) and we'll be hosting some competitions. I think we will have the same "for sale" stall to raise funds for the site. Whether or not we have showpiece areas like the first year - I don't know.
