            Richie Knucklez Invitational-Aug 7th-8th  
             on 6/15/2010 1:01:46 PM
             
            
                This year The Richie Knucklez Invitational will be this Aug. on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th. It's free and on sunday there will be a BBQ at Richie's!!!  On Friday will be normal Flash Back Friday $10
 
Flash Back Friday - 6pm-10pm
 Saturday- 10am-10pm 
 Sunday- 10am-4pm
 I'm thinking maybe we could have Richie or somenone pick 3 randoms game out of a hat on Saturday and Sunday and have a contest on them.  Maybe Richie could hand out free T-Shirts or we could make a small pool. Also, It could help out the Tokens system that Aurcade has at Richies.  
 Anyone interested?

                I'll try not to take offense that the event co-organizer was left off of the list.  :)
  The 2nd Annual "Inaugural" Richie Knucklez Invitational should be a blast.  It's where all of the "cool" kids will be that weekend.  I have already committed to providing Richie with prizes & swag.

                Could you add Michael Vacca to the list as well? I hear he is the favorite this year (kidding)

 So are you saying that a free weekend of gaming and a free BBQ isn't enough?  Wow. OK, to up the ante, I have provided the following to Richie for doorprizes: 1 iRiver 2gb MP3 player 1 copy of Pac-Man World Rally for PC 1 copy of Tom Clancy's Endwar for PC 1 copy of Tom Clancy's HAWX for PC 1 copy of Secret Service for PC 1 copy of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars for PC 1 copy of P.U.R.E for PC On top of that, I have made arrangements for ALL attendees to get a free copy of "Atari Anniversary Edition" for the PC, which features 12 classic Atari coin-op games and a 40 minute video interview with Atari's founder, Nolan Bushnell. As I have said before, all of the "cool kids" will all be at Richie's place the weekend of August 7th & 8th.

                Man... so sorry I will not be able to attend this.
 Would be nice though.
 On the bright side, I already have a copy of Atari Arcade Classics which does include the interviews with Bushnell.  Quite insightful if you haven't seen them already.

                Pole Position should definitely be on this list, maybe Alpine Ski.

                I do not play that much these days but I bust out a 386,700 in CK on MAME last week and a 167,800 No Hammer CK.
 
 I'm going to go and have fun and Get a better CK No-Hammer score than my 280k MAME score  on TG and submit it to Aurcade :)

                So much to say...........
 
 First I would like to thank Richie and his family for allowing this to happen. Next is a big thanks to Aurcade for having great live streaming, the contest and the updates and how the whole thing went! The Rush Rock Contest was quick and fun. 
 
 Justin Dean took my Crazy Kong WR with a score of 579,700 with 2 men on the Kill Screen. I was one board away from the KS and died with a score of 576,800.
 
 Dan and Jimmy put on more great shows of top level 1943 players!
 
 Hank and Eirc in DK was great seeing while I was playing CK next to them.
 
 Jimmy in Eagle so close to 200k
 
 Frankie in Road Runner getting the score back from pigger, NJ holding it down!!!!
 
 Steve Wagner wining the the contest and puting up some great scores and wining the Knuckie!!!
 
 Jason "The Warrior" Cram putting up a great fight  not knowing about the contest till the night before.
 
 My brother Jamie beating the Don in the contest for third!
 
 Talking to RTM about Crazy Kong was cool.
 
 And The best part Wiffle Ball at Richies!!!!!!

                What ever happened to the WR attempt at Punch Out? I have a bit of a vested interest in this one because I have a pretty high (unofficial) score of my own on this one.

                I think Mark was not ready to do it also it was going to be a 16 hour game and bathroom brakes at the arcade would be hard with that game
