We get a lot of mail here at the church of burger time. Tech support requests aren't here because hopefully they've been solved with the brand spanking new How to Install the MAME on the ROMs page.

Post? Do you want to post? Well, you'll have to send me mail.
	july 2002 G, cte-eng Sub: Popeye Hi I really like your site. Those old great games really take me back! Do you have Popeye available. That was one of the greatest. Thanks G pontifex maximus responds: Hey G, After some searching using WinMX I was able to find the right combination of zip files. The ROM works, but I couldn't get it to show up in my Games subdirectory as installed in MAME .55. I had to go to all games and launch it from there. The ROM is up on the ROMs page. http://www.violetshivers.com/John/Burgertime/ROM/ROM.html Info about the files that MAME uses is at http://www.mame.dk/gameinfo/popeyef/ ONWARD!

	may 2002 Chef Salt, aol Sub: Classic Gaming Expo I read that you're going to be in Las Vegas this Year. Looking forward to seeing you. You're really going to dress up like CHEF?

In Chef! pontifex maximus responds: Yes, I, pontifex maximus, who has had my latest VISION OF HE WHO IS CHEF, will be outside in full Chef Pepper regalia, handing out flyers and tracts to spread the word. Rabbiniacal Kosherias Brother Dave has promised to have a bail bond on the ready. Wish me luck and hopefully I'll see you there!

	apr 2002 L. Folk, altarex Sub: Question Hello I was wondering if Super NES or Nintendo 64 made a "Burgertime"? I have the Atari version and just recently discovered that 8 Bit NES made a version, and was wondering if I had any other options? Thank You, pontifex maximus responds: Thanks for writing Laura. Nintendo only ported burgertime to the 8 bit system. Here is what Church Father J.D. Lowe said in response to your question-- Nope, although I'm sure it'd rock. Burgertime died temporarily until that Super Burgertime game in the arcades, but they never ported either over to the SNES or higher. -- J.D. There was an adapter that plugged into the SNES made by a company called Tri-Star in 1993, but you'd have to find one of these on ebay probably. The model number was F-012 and you can read about that and more add ons to the NES at http://www.thepong.com/Sites/Left/Nintendo/NPeri.htm You do have other options if you want to collect the hardware. Coleco, Intellivision, Commodore and Texas Instruments all had burgertime, no to mention the PC and Mac versions. You can also download the MAME and the burgertime ROM and play on your computer. For more on the different ports of the game, check out our Incomplete History of Burgertime Happy Gaming and ONWARD! pontifex maximus responds month's later. Thanks to Laura for her tireless efforts finding out if Burgertime was available for Playstation. She has been knighted SUPREME EPISOLæ CHEF PEPPERARIUS et QUæ!

apr 2002 John E H, Vancouver, B.C. Canada Sub: New Churchgoer Well, finally a church I will attend ! Having been MAMED a few years ago, I was getting more and more roms, until the "crash of '00" (terminal case of 3-year-old child at keyboard syndrome)then I was romless, my backups being a mess of floppy disks, and old hard drives. Then there was no time for my beloved emulators, the only salvation being a nesticle with 5 games, a zsnes emulator with about 50 games, and a romless genecyst. But recently I have rediscovered the power of ROMs and M.A.M.E., and have happily started my collection again. I was without Burgertime, though. NOW I have it ! ! ! Thank You ¦:- ] John E H Vancouver, B.C. Canada pontifex maximus responds: We are glad you survived your crash John for it ultimately led you to us in your search for the burgertime ROM. Chef works in wondrous ways. We welcome you to the church of burgertime with our arms up stretched with the JOY of CHEF PEPPER. Behold to wonder of the ROM and thank you for your mail. in CHEF!

After reading flyer130's posts about the game we so love, we would like to invite him to let us know if he would like to have a link from our site. He is a sage, a saint, a veritable Johnny Apple seed, spreading the word that is of burgertime and Chef Pepper and the dropping of the buns. We wish you all the best. In Chef are we made complete, and with the 20th anniversary of the game approaching this year, we hope that you will all have a little Chef Pepper in your days. You are blessed in the continuation of your missionary-ism, good work, keeping the game alive and thriving. We grow ever stronger. In CHEF, ONWARD! -pontifex maximus.

feb 2002 John Simon, AOL GA Sub: You are a gentleman Most holy Pontifex Maximus, I've read your entire site and I have to say, your church is amazing. The drama, the tenets, the HISTORY of the game. I used to play Burger Time religiously on my Commodore 64 so I can see why there is a church devoted to it. The churches and letters are hilarious, had us ROTFL. You have inspired us and we will be creating a church here in Georgia soon. A down home revivalist church! Thanks for keeping the spirit of Chef Pepper alive and thriving! John Simon pontifex maximus responds: Excellent Pastor Simon, we always appreciate the feedback of the faithful.
