Dude, great episode. I really enjoyed listening to it. That was a great weekend and I'm glad you had fun.

Ah, shoot. I thought it was Hank who had it during that time.

I'm sure you know who will let me know on Twitter. :)

Listening! Ack! One inaccuracy!

Hank Chien didn't get the DK record till after King of Kong. Tim Sczerby had it for much (all?) of the filming of KoK.

Getting back to arcade games, I spent November 15-17 in Denver, Colorado hanging around the 1UP Arcade attending the 3rd Annual Kong Off Tournament. Billy Mitchell, Steve Wiebe, Walter Day and the 32 best Donkey Kong players in the world attended the tournament. In this episode of You Don’t Know Flack I talk about my time spent at the Kong Off 3 and some of the other classic arcades I visited in and around Denver!

Better late than never, on this episode of You Don’t Know Flack I rummage through my old Halloween memories, from trick-or-treating back then to trick-or-treating today. I run through most of the costumes I’ve worn in my life and talk about old and new Halloween parties. Not much tech talk on this one, but still a good listen.

On this week’s episode of You Don’t Know Flack I delve into the MiST computer, a new FPGA-based system designed to run Amiga and Atari ST software. I talk about how difficult it is to get the MiST up and running, compatibility issues, and whether or not I’d recommend one.

In Episode 142, I and special guest Earl Green from [url=http://www.thelogbook.com]TheLogBook.com[/url] share our memories about collecting Star Wars toys. Both of us saw Star Wars at very early ages and have been collecting Star Wars toys ever since.

Also Bruce is wrong, all of these stupid projects are credit card-based, haha.

Bruce, that is fantastic! There is no one on the planet that will defend defacing a Pac-Man cart. I bought two of the pop-tart carriers so I may give making straight cuts one more try. They're only $2 each at Big Lots but if I go back and buy 10 of them I'm sure someone there will turn me in to DHS assuming I am sending my kid to school every day with 20 pop-tarts.

Between my u1541, the Pi, and that new FPGA computer I'm looking at, that'll be three things like this I've bought that didn't come in a case. I bought a Pi case for $7. If these stupid things just came with a case and they added $20 to the price I would be fine with that.

I did NOT make a case yet, which means that the cats will knock coffee onto it.

I really gotta get another HDMI monitor so I can have the Pi up all the time.

I think you mean credit card-[i]sized[/i].

Here's the case I made for mine:

In Episode 141, I talk about my infatuation with the new(ish) credit card-based computer, the Raspberry Pi. In this show I talk about what the Raspberry Pi is, what it's capable of doing, and some of the more interesting uses for this $35 computer. Also on this episode I moved my microphone around and introduced some weird and annoying microphone noises to the show. You're welcome.

Stairs complicate things for sure. Whenever I see people who have basement arcades I just imagine how much my back hurt after moving just one machine up or down a few steps, much less an entire flight.

[quote="Flack"][b]Episode 140 is Online.[/b]

In previous episodes of You Don’t Know Flack I’ve talked both about arcades and my own personal arcade collection. In Episode 140, I talk about how and why I ended up parting with that collection. My book about collecting arcade games was titled Invading Spaces so I thought it would be appropriate to titled this one Reclaiming Spaces. Owning all those games took up a lot of space, and it wasn’t until I began to part with them that I regained all that space.[/quote]

Great episode. Assuming that things don't go horribly wrong, I am going to be going through the same thing in a few months.

A week from now I'll have 17 games. I can't imagine life without a single one of them. I also can't imagine moving a single one of them, or getting a single one of them up the stairs. God.

God.

[b]Episode 139 is Online.[/b]

Last week I visited the Galloping Ghost arcade just outside of Chicago, Illinois. You can hear all about the arcade and my time there in episode 139 of You Don’t Know Flack! Also in this episode I compare the Ghost to some of the other retro arcades I’ve visited recently, including Funspot, the Arkadia Retrocade, and 1984. The “Loading Time” section of this episode is a little longer than I had hoped but, eh, sometimes loading a podcast off of a Commodore Datasette takes a while.

You Don't Know Flack is back with another episode! In this episode, I wax nostalgic about my days with the Atari 2600. You'll get to hear about many of the games I grew up playing, whether or not I still collect Atari 2600 games, and why Keystone Kapers holds special meaning to me. Also in this episode I experimented with some noise cancelling plug-ins, so I'd love to hear what you think about that.
