I gave away my resin printers a year ago, and haven’t looked back. Still finding resin residue in crevices.

Also from Indiana. It appears the info isn’t helpful so I’ll delete the post.

That’s what I get for typing this while waiting in line in the vendor hall and trying to have a conversation. Oops!

Both companies are also employee-owned!

This is the way.

The kitchen that serves St. Elmo's is the same kitchen that serves Harry and Izzy's, FYI.

This is one of the most valuable tools for GenCon. It has gotten us in to so many events thanks to the Monitor feature. Are you still maintaining it? It looks like the Monitor feature no longer works. For sold out events, it still shows a number under the "Tickets Available" column.

I’m at 12:02 and I will buy all the rooms!

Ya'll here talkin' about proper hold-down technique, and here I am just wondering what in the heck my homie has on his feet...

Don't forget that there's no fuel services on Mackinac. Closest fuel would be right across the channel at 83D or a bit south at SLH. Looks like a ton of fun!

Nemesis checks all your main criteria, and several of your bonus points. It is our groups go-to favorite "four hour" game. It took longer to learn, but once you get how things roll, it fits really nice in that time window.

If it’s a South Bend, there should be a serial number stamped on the tailstock end of the bed, between the flat and V-ways. Not sure where Atlas put their serial numbers.

Thanks for all the fish!

I haven’t had any luck with the remaining US service person, and have now been ghosted by them. The closest pre-bankruptcy dealer is 4.5 hours away, and although they were great to talk to, they would not look my bike. There is an issue with my remote key system and sadly my SS9 has been sitting under a tarp in the garage for most of the summer. I’m under the impression that the bike needs a firmware update, but the original company made it impossible to upgrade the firmware without having to plug the bike in to a computer and download the update directly from the server in Italy.

My wife wanted me to sell it but I talked her out of it since there’s really no great market for an inoperable bike. I’m hoping once things start to ramp back up I can get it fixed because I miss riding it.

The good news is that all of the routine maintenance stuff is super simple to do yourself.

I ride an electric motorcycle for my commute. Range is pretty great on e motos these days, so if you’re just commuting range is never an issue.

I already get picked on by my coworkers (all in good fun) for riding an e moto… this would not help lol!

Man I hope so. When it was active, this group helped me out of more than one pickle.

Kinda sorta. You can remove them but the two black parts that are attached to the window are there for good (this photo being one of the exceptions lol). The two times I’ve had my car to the service center they always ask if they want me to reattach it lol.

This is the best comment in the entire thread.

Some of the best memories I have with my kids (we’re all early risers) is finding a cafe, grabbing some coffee and pastries, and then grabbing a table in the hotel lobby to play games and watch the con wake up. There are several cafés all around the downtown area, and a lot of them usually have fun and interesting con related menu items. We always just search on Google maps for places that have a good review, and then try something new every morning.

TIL, thanks!! By the way, we are SO THRILLED y’all are back. When I asked my kids what they wanted to do this year, the first question they asked was if you guys were gonna be there lol.

They weren’t at GenCon last year so I think everyone who loves this event has been jonesing for it to come back. I’ve been monitoring with GenCon Event Planner since tickets went on sale (our group needed 8 tix and we ended up with four) and I haven’t seen more than singles pop. It’s a pricey venture so unlikely someone will no-show, but if you were gonna grab $38 in generics, it’s still not a bad idea to show up and see if someone doesn’t show. With the event being an e-ticket, returns can happen up to 30 minutes before the event so it may be neigh impossible to grab two tickets anyway. Good luck tho!

For the four-color charts, I’ve always said “Green takes the dust off, yellow takes the bugs off, red takes the paint off, purple takes the wings off”

GA pilot here, flying to Vegas once, there’s a fix spelled PPENN. I was expecting to hear “pen” but the controller said “pee pen”. I was totally thrown and asked him to spell the fix. He laughed and said he’s the only one of his colleagues who thinks it should be “pee-pen” and not “pen”. I asked him, “Well then why don’t you pronounce it ‘pee-pen-en’” to which he replied, “aww rats”. It was worth a good chuckle after a long day of flying.
