Our 16th Mega Drive Tournament is going to be held on Saturday 6th January 2007, in Nottingham, in the UK, from 6:30pm-11pm Admission will be £5 (to cover the cost of the hall). The website can be found by clicking the picture in my sig. If anybody's interested in coming along then please let me know.
If you where in New York, USA... I could easily hook you up with a place to rent for a day or two. Too bad I live in the US of A.
if it was in Australia No one would go! they're all sucked into marketing here and regard the retro scene as stoooopid!
I'm near London in the UK.
Sounds interesting, but I'm ninety miles north of you. Have fun :(
It's a great shame nobody here lives closer as it would be awesome to have a few more hardcore Mega Drive players in the ranks.
People in Australia don't know what they're missing. Playing on-line doesn't have the same experience as meeting up with friends, drinking unquantifiable amounts of coffee, and playing the Mega Drive!

Try to make it around the first week of July, as that's when we hold our summer tournaments. ;)Quote:

Petrol too expensive? I thought Miles was a US only thing?Quote:

1 mile = 10km
That's the Norwegian/Swedish version:

But in England it's normally 1,609 m or 1,852 m

In the UK we still use imperial measurements when it comes to transport and the UK and Ireland are the only countries in Europe to drive on the left.
I live in the US, and our gas, well when you go to the gas station is not sold by the liter, and not mesured in the imperial gallon. But it is measured in "US Gallons".
