    Default Northeast Illinois gamers rollcall

    HERE IT IS. WHO HERE IS BETWEEN CHICAGO AND WISCONSIN? We need to plan a gettogether, and have an all night game bash.
    If they made a movie out of your top five worst sins, what would it be rated?

    Doesn't ring a bell. There doesn't appear to be too large a collecting community in this area, so I don't meet many other collectors around.

    Well, I found his address on Atariage and sent him an e-mail. It would be cool to find another collector here, since they seem pretty rare. It would make me seem less weird to my friends.

    Awsome I didn't know there was so many of you around. Lets keep posting and plan something here. Lets make it affordable. If there aint too many of us I could do it at my house.

    If any of you IL gamers want to join a mailing list for people in IL and surrounding states then E-mal:
    AVCIL-Subscribe@yahoogroups.com.

    This list was orginally stated when the first run of battlesphere was released
    and a bunch of us would like to start a meeting of sorts. (that when it orignally on listbot)
    I'm still going to try to plan meeting for the local group, but thats still
    up in the air.
