Michigan Meetup (DO NOT POST IF YOU CANNOT COME)

[lightdarkness]

Alright, it's time we start talking about this.

It has been talked among several FFR'ers of a meet up in Michigan. Why Michigan? Because it has a lot of Bemani arcades, and a lot of FFR'ers.

We need to start figuring out who would go to this, how many people we would get, where we would stay, and what arcades we would actually go to.

As I am talking to chardish here, several places come to mind. Pinball Pete's, AFC Troy, AFC Westland, ect.

What we need to do right now is get some people that live in the area to get some information. Like hotel information (for those of us coming from out of town), how far places are from each other, and things like that.

Also, I think it would be neat to see some pictures of each arcade, as well as to find out what type of Bemani games they have.

So, I guess we need to start off by finding out who is interested? Only say if you really thing you will be able to go. Don't just say you would go to bandwagon. Also, post where you live, and we can see if this thing has a chance of happening.

EDIT: This is some final information on the trip

Out of towners should drive in on the 5th, and arive in Michigan in the afternoon, check into their hotels, then proceed to Pinball Petes.

Hotel arrangments are still being worked out, but i'd like it if those coming from out of town stayed in the same hotel, so we can have some fun after the locals have gone home.
