Re: Green Ray Television restoration

Still got lots of cards somewhere It would be cool to record all the different cards on here. Maybe just a text record. I believe Clive Baker improvised a few n...

I found how to swap Avatar but thought it was about time to update my machine list. When you're logged into the Forum, find the dr...

Arena etc. login problem

There is currently a problem with logging into all areas other than the Forum. This appears to be caused by a recent software update. I'm working on it and will report back once it's resolved. |/XX\|

Re: Need a Guru

Yes I do have the cabinet also. That's good. :cool: So from the pictures you can see that it was converted?

Re: Need a Guru

Re: Calling all WHALES
