Hello members,
just letting you the AVC Website has been updated last night
with the addition of the AVC News Stand.
The News Stand will have the back issues listed with prices for normal print

Atari Video Club announces Spy Games tournament for VGS'04

For Immediate Release:

March 9, 2004

Atari Video Club/Jaguar Comunnity United is pleased to announce the following
details for Spy Games tourney.  For those who don't know what Spy Games is
here's the basics:
The tourney style will be known as Spy Games in which eight players will be
chosen to compete in games in order to add prizes to final prize package and
one of the eight players will be known as the Spy, a player who was chosen to
make sure the prizes don’t get added. (If this sounds familiar to you it should
because I got the idea after watching “Celebrity Mole” on ABC-TV (I also
thought about doing something like this last year,but never went through with
it)) Also like the TV show, after each game a quiz will be taken about each
player to figure out who is the Spy, the player who scored low on the
quiz will be eliminated. Now here’s the twist, there will be no exemptions, so
everybody is a risk, plus at the end of tourney The Spy will get a chance to
win the prize package when the Spy will play against the player who figured out
who is the Spy. Also visitors to the show will be able to guess who is the Spy
(hint’s will be hidden the program, plus  they will be able to watch the
players as well).
Now For the details on how to enter a chance to take part in Spy Games:
You entry is based on your high score of one of the games listed below.
2600: Star Wars: Death Star Battle
5200: Defender
7800:Xevious

Jaguar: Protector(it can be Regular or Special Edition version)
(You must be able to attend the The 2004 Video Game Summit to enter)
submit you scores as often as you like(the higher the score the
better your chances)
you must play the game you have chosen(you Can Not change the game)
Submit you scores by e-mailing me using the subject "Spy Games" or
online at the Atari Bowl page(formerly the Atari Mania page) at
AVC online(a button to the Atari Bowl page is at the VGS registration
on the information form) Your score will be listed on the Atari bowl stnadings
(but it will not effect Atari bowl ratings)

because I got the idea after watching “Celebrity Mole” on ABC-TV (I also
thought about doing something like this last year, but never went through with
it)) Also like the TV show, after each game a quiz will be taken about each
player to figure out who is the Spy, the player who scored low on the quiz will
be eliminated. Now here’s the twist, there will be no exemptions, so everybody
is a risk, plus at the end of tourney The Spy will get a chance to win the
prize package when the Spy will play against the player who figured out who is
the Spy. Also visitors to the show will be able to guess who is the Spy (hint’s
will be hidden the program, plus they will be able to watch the players as
well). More details on Spy Games will be released next week (games being used
and how to enter a chance to be player).

The 2004 Video Game Summit is being held on July17th, 2004 from 9am to 6pm
at the Lombard Inn and Suites hotel (Heron Point Building) formerly the Quality
Inn and suites hotel 645 West North Avenue, Lombard, IL.

Matt,
curently for VGS as atari area goes: we will have a our Lynx section
return: Tom L and his 8 lymx , so that covered, some jaguars are needed
though I do plan on bringing mine with the jaglink and BS and doom.
and a bunch of carts. I don't think I'll bring my 2600 unless it needed.
as MGC goes: well, I'm just planning doing a AVC/JCU table fanzines binder and
my jag.
if you want to do the jagfest stuff there that will be cool with me I'll try to
help out too. I don't know how the Lynx section is going be done. (I Think goat
store is setting that up)
btw: tables at VGS: 15.00 each. if you need tables I'll send a link to an
e-vite
or the e-vite itself.
Or go to the VGS website to get the evite there.
Dan
(I am planning to to go MGC but it's going to be fight because my bosses at
work at giving some gruff that it a holiday week and it isn't)

Well, I can't say much for the rest of the shows, I might be able to go to
the IL. AVC, but I'd sure like to help at the MGC. But is it going to be
focusing on Jaguar or Atari in general? I have lots of Atari equipment, but
I'd really like to see a good Jagfest at MGC too. I mean one with multiple
tournaments and Jaglinking and lots of rare protos and such. I have 2-3
Jaguars, 2 monitors and a TV, 1 copy of BS and 1 copy of BSG, Jaglink (if
I'm bring all this stuff, I'll get a Jaglink2 or two to expand networking
beyond 2 console (if anyone else has BS that is, or more than two aricars).
But, I also have a flashcart, and images for it like totalCarnage 1p
version,BHH (of course this is now available) and lots of other
BJL/JUGS/flashcart demos. But I also have on cd to show; american
hero(although this is porn and probably inappropriate), SoulStar, Varuna's
forces demo&fmv disks, BlackIce/Whit noise, 4play demo disk, Native demo
disk, and of course two copies of Doom for networking. Lots of Jaguar
memorabilia  and unique items to display. I'll also want to be showing off
my new Jaguar controller (to be released in conjunction with Ambient
Distortions)that will get an official announcement and release sometime  in
the next couple months. So let me know Dan what i can do, I have 8-bit and
16-bit and 2600/5200/7800/lynx stuff too(lynx cable and one copy of several
linkable games)

Hello fellow members,
It getting close to convention season again which also means that AVC/JCU will
be planning our next tour.
So far 2 stops are being planned out MGC in WI in May 22nd and 23rd(I'm
planning to be there,but in case I can't make I will need somebody to rep
AVC/JCU) and VGS'04 in IL on July 17th(Of course I'll be there, it's an AVC
event).
Now for the other shows:like PC5 or CGE: I will need a rep there.
What does a Rep have to Do: basicly All I need is some body to report on the
show so it can be posted on the website and in the fanzine. thats all, If you
do this I'll send you a copy of the fanzine that has your review in it.
just let me which event your planning to attend in 2004.
(I don't really need to have a physical appearance at the shows, but if you
happen to decide to get a table to rep AVC/JCU at the show let me know what you
have planned and if you need some fanzines)
Dan Iacovelli
AVC/JCU chairperson

I just thought I'll tell you about the VGS chat that are being held at the
atari hangout chat room ( http://www.jrthompson.org/atari/ ) every Subday
Time varies depends on my work schedule (be sure to check the VGS site every
Thursady after 6pm for times of the chat(s)on the ticker.

Also just wondering how many of you here on this list is interested in coming
to show or getting a table. (chances are I won't be planning a local IL meeting
for while since my work schedule won't give me enough time for it unless we do
it around 6 or 7pm on saturdays so VGS will be more or less our meetings)
