Dallas, Texas 6.2 DFW Metro area. First post updated with new info

Are there any upcoming days yall are meeting up to play? I wanna get some games in on live people.

Yeah, normally we have it on Saturday, but because of the holidays Fight Club is postponed until 2012. I will post on here when we start back up again. And when we do, we will have Ranbats for UMvC3, AE:2012, and KoF13

I miss you guys. Got caught up with stuff last week. Also I’ve been falling asleep on my arm/side as I always slept my whole life and waking up with numb arm and hands. I can’t get away with that anymore since I’m older (less circulation) so I’m trying to teach myself to fall asleep on my back and not flip over in my sleep. I did it successfully for the first time today so that’s a decent start. If I don’t show up this week I’m just letting my arms and hands rest, other members of my family would have same thing happen only worse lol. Also I need to get my spring replaced or a new stick. I was going to order a spring on lizardlick but I read a topic saying they are taking forever to process orders so I’m like asdfasdf

how is everyone enjoying 2012? I like the character diversity at this socal regional, seems promising:

  1. EG|Justin Wong (Rufus, Adon)
  2. EG|Ricky Ortiz (Rufus)
  3. iPeru (El Fuerte)
  4. RZR|Latif (C. Viper)
  5. CCG|Air (Ryu)
  6. Hugo101 (M. Bison, Sagat)
  7. LU|Alex Valle (Ryu)
  8. Masarap (Cammy, Akuma)
  9. Warahk (Guile)
  10. Mike Chow (Abel)
  11. Box|Viscant (Dee Jay)
  12. Snake Eyez (Zangief)
  13. FC|Jago (M. Bison)
  14. Online Tony (Seth)
  15. Kane (Gen)
  16. Chris King (Vega)

Hey, for once there was nothing sexist on the current page or so to scare you away! Apparently!

…just racism and mild xenophobia!

Haha, it does seem to be getting better. [S]I think…[/S]

Ryan Kim ordered us some buttons from lizard lick about two weeks ago. I believe they were supposed to be coming in today? Whatever.

It’s the strangest occurance; why would my jab button, of all things, break?

Any of you guys playing SWTOR? Get at me! - SolidxPanda is my tag.

Rumor on the streets say Bison player’s [S]crouch[/S] light kick and heavy kick button break on average of 15 times per year. I can attest this is true. Why do you think I have two buttons that bring out heavy kick? You may assume it’s because I need one with 3 kicks due to my unorthodox button layout. The actual reason, however, is I need two in case one breaks mid-match. In fact, I don’t even think two is enough. You should let me in on those extra buttons Kim ordered, I’d like to add about 3 more[S] crouch[/S] light kick buttons and 5 extra heavy kicks just to play it safe. While I’m at it, you think someone can mod my start button to be heavy kick too?

edit: had to remove ā€œcrouchā€ it’s not a ā€œcrouch light kickā€ button, it is a ā€œlight kickā€ button. See what being a cr lk spamming Bison player does to your mentality?

I’m replacing all 8 buttons on my orange stick. Kinda like car tires, I’d just rather replace all of them at the same time. If I don’t and I ever drop a combo for any reason I will question my joystick and not have faith in anything I do with my hands actually happening on the screen. At this point I’ll be so full of doubt that it will be unlikely that I could get a win.

HOWEVER! The 3p/3k macro buttons on my stick have barely been used. Beyond that, aside from jab I have no reason to believe that any of my old buttons are non-functional aside from crazy voices in my head insisting that the whole thing is broken. if you would like any of the seven old buttons you’re welcome to them.

Jab actually is broken though. During a match with Ali once I twice in a row got crouch strong rather than jab xx hands that I was certain I input correctly. I went home and did jab xx hands 500 times in training mode with inputs on. 11 of those 500 times jab wouldn’t fire correctly. I would press the buttons same as always, jab strong fierce jab fierce, and inputs would only display strong fierce fierce. It happened in a set of 5 then much later a set of 6. Well, that gave me proof that I wasn’t crazy and that my buttons were on the way out, so, replacing all 8.

Hey everyone, tonight is KOF WEDNESDAYS at the house of goons. Address is located in the OP (it’s in plano.) Any questions feel free to ask, hope to see yall there!

There should be a tournament hosted on broken ass joysticks, that way it could be considered a throwback to Dallas’ arcade era!

I hear the 2p side of the Guilty Gear Redload cabinet can only uppercut toward the left. Good times.

I really miss how hot and congested ATown felt too. It was like a grease kitchen in there.

No one posts in here cause everyone is on the Facebookings, but Happy Holidays, friends!

Happy holidays guys

A city this sweet deserves a thread just as sweet.

Just a friendly reminder that Arkansas’ first ever Bar Battles is January 21st! Hope to see most of you guys there.

there hasn’t been much activity here lately. I was wondering if the goons are going to play kof again this wednesday. I want to come down and teach how to mash.

Dammit … who gotta stick 4 sale! (xbox)

There hasn’t been enough swag in this thread.
