Default A BIG QUESTION?

I see a lot a pics of teams, but what I am more interested in is the game boards themselves. Why is it we don't have a thread or spot in this site that is somewhat a museum of electric football games?

I know, I am a new guy, but I would love to see pics of all games ever made if that was possible.

If I missed these someplace,..sorry to waste the site space! Thanks folks!

(Yes, I seen the "history of boards" but really, is that all of it?)

No, there is much more. One of the goals of the MFCA is to have more historical information exactly like what you just asked for. The MFCA is just 1.5 years old and with more members, there will be more people to do the work that it requires to build these records. It is on the to-do list and I have talked with some guys regarding this. It is a matter of time and each persons personal time. If anyone wants to take a project on like this, the MFCA will assist in every way possible but it requires a volunteer effort which reminds me to call some of the guys who have asked to volunteer. (Sorry artlax, I still owe you a call )

Speaking of the brick at Michigan Stadium,..I have one of those bricks (real brick) in a transparent case from when they did the last completed renovation and addition to the great stadium! An old friend who is now gone sent it to this Michigander in Washington State. Some day,..I'm going home! M GO BLUE!

And WEIRDWOLF, just so you know, I love this site, and I am not complaining or anything like that, it just seems to me that more in this site are into players rather than the boards? I have to admit though, the players that some have created in this site are amazing!

Oh, I new you weren't complaining. Having an organized board history as well as men and many other things is a must do. I wish I could just snap my fingers and have it completed because it is a question that often comes up. We will get there eventually and in fact your question has given me a new idea for future Tweak magazines.
