You know what's funny (in a completely unfunny way)? A blackout while you're in the arcade. There's a lotof ambient noise in the arcade, what with all the machines going. With a blackout, there's an extra loud, stereoscopic version of the universal sound you get when shutting something off (BWOOOOoooo...), a moment of complete silence, and then an eruption of groans and WTFs? I was in the middle of a Goddamn Moose Hunting Adventure. Oh, and apparently they've got a policy of not refunding your money if there's a blackout. So I learned never to pick the "3 Adventures! Best Value!" option in Big Buck Hunter. Three adventures for three times the cost of a single adventure is not a better value... it's the same value, just more of it. And screw them for not refunding my money; I was barely into the start of the second adventure. There were at least... 24 more moose that I could have potentially hunted. Good strategy, arcade, alienate your customers. But know this: I'm going to recoup those lost tokens, and then some. I have my ways, which I'm going to choose not to mention in a public forum such as this. But mark my words, arcade, not refunding those tokens was a bad idea.
Also, in regards to the dining hall: could people please stop lounging around in the doorway, deciding whether or not they want to go in? Seriously, there's no vespene geyser in there; you're not a siege tank; get the fuck out of the chokepoint. I've made up my mind already that I want to be in there. If you need more time to decide, fine, but do it in an area where you're not blocking the flow of traffic.
