Not sure who it is on the far left (sorry!), but I believe then it's Skyone, gannon, CTFan, and project_failure.

EDIT: Gah! Terrible page break!

Yeah, Sky's got the long, hippie blonde hair standing in the top left, marshall's got the shorter blonde hair sitting at the toilet (lulz) gannon is sitting right by him, and project_failure is the one on the far right standing up. Oh, and the sexy beast who's head is just barely showing, that's me.

Oh, by the way, ShockSlayer, you only need a BIT of hot glue to hold down components!!! I spent most of the time on that project cutting out that damn switch, there was like a gallon of hot glue on it!

CTFan

I'm shocked that most of you guys don't recognize Marshall. I mean, he's like, God of everything software, and something about him makes his face stick in memory.

Can we get some usernames on this pic?

marshallh all the way to left, skyone to the right, then CronoTriggerFan above gannon, and project_failure all the way to the right.

I don't get credit for providing the hotel room?

Marshall looks like a young Bill Gates and Sky looks stoned out of his gord all the time.

Awesome job though guys!

I really wish I could have been there. I would have been the one manning the hot glue gun, or the one being held back from the hot glue gun, it really depends!

After having seen the inside of your n64p i can honestly say held far FAR away from the hot glue gun! jesus christ man you need maybe ONE STICK for an entire portable not a whole box of them

i think you used more hotglue on your powerswitch than i did in my gamecube! and on a related note i have possession of it now and MIGHT be trying to make something decent out of it if the n64 is not dead.

Is there any chance of a Video of the NESQuic in action?

Wow 0_o

That is some nerd-tastic action!

Props to Brian for letting us solder in the bathroom (goes without saying) and for organizing the whole room too.

Thanks for the comments, guys!

Marshall was the only face there that I could 100% place.

You get credit for setting up the room, helping me set up a flight plan, and picking me up.

If Spongebuell (man its hard to say user names instead now!) wants to film it before shipping it out to me thats fine, or I'll do it when I get it.

I must sadly inform some of you there was a casualty, my Winchester multi-tool was damaged, the scissors like tool was broken. Thanks guys for telling me when I got it back. Seems I should bring most if not all of you Leatherman multi-tools next time, and avoid this again.

And for those that didn't make it you should have seen what Marshallh and Trition brought. I swear Trition could have rivaled the local Radio Shack for things like resistors and other electronic component. Really a stylish case that opened up to reveal a tackle box-like full of parts, is something I don't think many people are expecting to see, ever.

What's so surprising about that? I use those little multi-compartment boxes and a tackle box to hold pulled parts all the time! They're great! (And you can get them for 2 bucks if you're willing to shop at the craft store. They're marketed as 'bead organizers' but they're the same thing Lowes sells for a lot more. I know most portablizers are cheap SOBs...

Man, that's some slick work. It looks great!

I love those mini ACE glue guns. My dad owns an ACE, and he gave me one for Christmas. It works better than those big honkers.

Who brought that Dremel? How does it feel compared to the regular ones? I've been looking at them for a while, but money isn't exactly rolling in. I might be tempted to swap my cordless for one, though.
