Every now and then we publish an interview with a member of the CCU. See the message below as to why we do them and what is involved if you think you would make an interesting subject.

So far we have the following:

CastlevaniaP

Sonicboom713

ShayeRuecker

CodingGenius

Paully3443

Tiggerboy

JollyRoger78

_Bear

DrFish62

Waflerevolution

Usagi704

Yagami-Iori

BigC443

Mamba219

Original Message

I've posted the first in what will be a continuing series of Collection Spotlights - check it out on our home page and comment there (not here).

If you'd like be in the collection spotlight PM me. It helps if you have a gmail account so I can share the interview doc with you, but it is not required. Nor is a large collection required, if you have a smaller set of games but there is something of note about them you can have your collection featured.

It also helps to have a photo or two of your collection with one of the photo's with you in it, to personalize the spotlight.

Even if you don't express interest don't be surprised if I PM you expressing interest in your participation.

#005 is up there. I'll take this opportunity to answer some questions about the spotlights.

The interviews are a three part process, I send you the questionaire, the respondant sends it back and I then send back follow-up questions.

Photos are required, but not of the subject (some people are shy, that's ok).

I know some of you have filled out your questionaires and I have finished the process and are anxious to see your put up. I put them up in the order completed. I pace them so each one has some time for everyone to see. If there is a game spotlight in a week it delays the process a few days.

Hope you guys are enjoying reading them as much as I am.

Nope, you'll just get a message from me at the right time.

I've got plenty more to do before we get to me. Most people know my story anyway.

I have the interview portion filled out and finally have things arranged where I want them to do another photo shoot. Two new large book cases needed to be added to give me some room to grow. You've been doing great work on these things. Keep it up.

Pretty much what this fella said. I rarely comment on the interviews but I always read them, and enjoy them.

I'd like to be interviewed if anyone is interested! I sit at around 820 games, and I always like to read about others collections. It is very entertaining to me simply because of the fact that it gives us others to relate to! I have stated that it is my ultimate goal to collect the entire US NES collection already but I could tell why and give some insight on my collecting habits as well if you can fit me in! Just let me know either way...

If no one submits another Game Spotlight by Thursday I can probably have another of those for you, if need be. I understand that you have a vicious backlog of Collection Spotlights and an underwhelming supply of Game Spotlights...would be glad to help with that.

Keep 'em coming Mamba, your last one was great, but I might have another feature between your spotlight and your last feature on Pokemon so people don't get mambad-out (like that would be possible, I know).

And when I find the USB stick with my feature on, that will be forthcoming. It's somewhere in the huge mass of stuff I brought back from Bradford. I hate moving. Especially all the house-hopping I've been doing the last couple of years :roll:

I should have some free time this week, so I could submit that Game Spotlight on The Movies that I talked about earlier. I really want to play mine, but I'm missing the code for the expansion... :(

Anyway, I'll try to have that done by wednesday.

Because we're all such shy, retiring folk... ;)

You know, I should probably do this at some point. It would involve trying to harness the high-speed nonsense that goes through my head though.

Almost all of the subjects of the spotlight have volunteered to my questioning up until now. But I have the remaining few in my sights.
