::)

These events were always billed under false pretenses (none of them are ever actually genuine "world record attempts" because spectators would not understand restarts), and I think the "marketing" of them that way annoys even Steve, but yeah, at this point, c'mon.

Unless he's been out in that garage for the last few months, he'll be lucky to crack the top 10!

Though I have to say, I would be really happy if he did...

I heard this guy survived a home invasion. Allegedly, Twin Galaxies sent 12 ninjas to stop him from getting the DK world record, but he was able to  subdue them all with a mysterious gummy substance.

Jace mentioned on State of the Galaxies tonight that he had heard of this event and may be flying out there to meet Steve. It might be streamed too. Wait and see.

Mitch, while you are there you should try and secure this movie poster (at least that's what I think it is).

Good idea. I'll see if they are handing some out. If so, I'll snag a few to share. If not, I'll try to get Steve to help me get the authentic one (in the case there is only one). I'm gonna be going both days, so I'll have time to hopefully make friends with the organizers.

I received this message on FB today. We'll see if anything cool comes of it.

"Hi Mitchell, I'm a suburban newspaper reporter and I'm considering doing a story this weekend about Donkey Kong, given the appearance of Steve Wiebe at MOA. I'm trying to find elite DK players in the Twin Cities, and your friend Gary pointed me in your direction.

It's not a done deal yet, this story may not happen, but if I can work it out, I'd like to put something together. Would you be willing to talk with me about your interest in pursuing an elite DK score?"
