estarburst runs the mac arcade also…so whoever you guys talked to in order to get 3S at mohawk…should be the same people I guess…
better fighting games would be nice since there are a fair amount of people playing all the time…mostly on SNK games last few times i’ve been there…hopefully those SNK guys would play games that aren’t so broken…excluding MVC2 
I like the hours there…late hours are good since parking is free in the evening…and during exam week it’s like open til like 4am hahaha
yeah i think its cool that its open that late, what do they have down there right now???
A few things…
Results for the mini tourney at Mohawk today are posted…

I survived two nailbiters against Nam and Darko(who had a solid Alex) to fall to Gerjay in Losers Finals. Made a really poor decision in the last round of the second match that could have put me through to the finals…doh, I suck
That CvS1 gets more fried everytime I see it. Sakura shoots out Aegis Reflectors and in her super she shoots out a Mega Optic Aegis Reflector…
Justin, thanks a bunch about the requests…I’ll head down tomorrow morning and talk to the manager again so we can be all set up.
If people can make it, come on out for the tourney. I’ll be there about noonish. Tourney will start at about 12:30-1ish at the latest. Today at Mohawk, I waited way too long to start the thing waiting for people I thought would show up…not only did they not show but the time I waited, I ended up having two people in the tourney that couldn’t stay…so I’m not going to wait around on Saturday…
And to get the machines in Mac(or Mohawk for that matter) you have to talk to estarburst people. Rey and I have put in requests for Mohawk to get CvS2 or MvC2 and we’ve been given a pretty straight no.
But the Campus Cove forum is here if you want to try a request…

whoa…they said NO…i’ve been waiting for a reply for months :rolleyes:
estarbust only takes care of orbit/york/waterloo…can’t remember the others
but mohawk/mac don’t seem to exist to them…it was a big shock to get 3s…but they’ll just give us the shit games that the other places don’t want…like mac just got freakin KOF 2002 i believe…and before that…it was SvC…:lame:
IT’S HAMMER…nuff said lol
those T5 avs are sick…lots of them are so jokes
Its KOF2001 at Mac I think…do they still have SvC?
Yeah, the T5 avs rule…the one with Twelve and Cammy is just too jokes…
In one of those weird situations where everyone seems to be free, there’s big casual at ORBIT tomorrow so you guys should get a car or two and come for around 9:00pm.
Oh yeah… Ir emember the CvS1. That game is SOOOO broken on their machine. I swear, its like you’re tripping out during every single moment you play it. Its’ the weirdest SF I’ve ever played. Fortunately I still won my fair share of games on it. Can’t touch the Nak, she’s too broken.
that rough Mar. yeah when i get some time ill see if i can get some peeps together for casual or possibly get tourny going. BUt as my previous post states time is against me…
Wow, you go to work and miss out on some mass posting. I guess that i got some random replies on the way.
Kevin> masahiro_chono@hotmail.com. If anyone else wants to add me, go ahead. Just tell me who you are when you message me. If you see a girls pic on there, it’s just my girlfriend, so don’t get too happy and think that you’ve reached some wierd sex line.
Justin> That’s awesome. We could really use the help here. I’m sure that there are other players kicking around that would wanna play something other than CVS2 ( I don’t know why) and this would really help our community grow. Now I fully believe that one day you will control all arcades. (you had to be there to hear it if you’re just reading this)
Mario> Get some fucking money and put it on the line if you feel you guys can beat us. But as of right now, I’m still gonna keep talking shit until you win my 50 bucks.
Tourney Players> Congrats to everyone who was there. Hope you guys had fun. 3s sucks btw.
My conversation with the EG Arcade Manager today…
In a nutshell, she said no to event mode…I asked her if she got a call about it from Wizard’s Castle people, she said she didn’t. She said she isn’t allowed to touch the “computer parts” although that definitely doesn’t explain why I was standing two feet away from her when she tried to fix the CvS2 machine a couple of months ago. She also said even if she could though she wouldn’t put it on event mode because she’s aware that there are “challenges” and she doesn’t want them to happen(which really doesn’t explain why the game is there at all then…)
The one thing that I didn’t say to her but will next time I see her though is that I can’t understand why she’s so against it considering it might actually make the machine make money considering that from noon to 5:30 there will be a constant stream of quarters going into the damn machine, with event mode on…
I may consider just forgetting about it anyways. Since there’s a thing at Orbit later that night that Brampton/Sauga will be going to anyways and since at least a couple of Hamilton regulars who likely won’t be attending…i.e. Rey, possibly Jimmy…
Either way, I’ll show up tomorrow at around noon…at the very least, I’ll be there to play anyone that wants to come for casual. If there’s enough people, we’ll do the tourney…
Oh yeah, and Justin, is there an e-mail address where I can actually talk to that guy you talked to about event mode and getting more fighters at EG? I wouldn’t mind talking to him myself. Thanks again for doing that, BTW…
Holy shit, Mario.
That’s fucked.
I’m so sorry to hear that, man.
Whoever did stole your shit needs to fucking die (just like that bitch who manages EG’s arcades)
Now I know why you and Ike couldn’t go on Thursday, but what about Vince?
What’s his reason for not going?
Oh, and Justin, that’s really cool what you did.
Thanks a whole bunch, we really appreciate that.
yeah, the mac arcade is really open i think til 12-12 every night and 4-12 on weekends. it’s pretty sick plus u can hit up the bar right after for another couple hours
most people play during school hours though, but some come down after night classes etc. there’s at least 10 hardcore fighting game players there and we would play whatever was there. at first it was cvs1/sfex3, then it was svc when that showed up. svc can be really fun, especially when you have a ton of people lined up to play, which often was the case after school. kof this year should be really fun and interesting. also, there’s a pretty hard core tekken scene there too of about 5 or 6 guys who play alot. of course, this is all during the school year.
i’m gonna hit up eg tomorrow but prolly only til around 3. weekends are the worst times for me in terms of freedom.
-oh, and speaking of other games (vanny mentioned c&c), me and jeff both play starcraft every now and then on the net as well as ut2k4 if you guys play those. i have c&c, and red alert and c&c2, but i don’t think there’s any way to play those over the internet?
hey
huge cable modem outtage on thursday morning… got called into work for a a few hours. people were like >.< cuz they had no internet access… kinda like… getting raped up the ass… ya know… old people… can’t do anything but sit in front of the TV or the computer.
RXS
P.S. if you don’t know how to turn your TV on you shouldnt’ have one. and no Emails do not require postage stamps.
I lost my Hamilton map. How do I get to EG mall? Pretend I live near Square One. May I have some driving directions please? thanks
I might not show up if it’s too far. Have fun guys
!
I don’t know where the hell Square One is, but I hope this helps:
Go to:
Type in:
75 Centennial Parkway North
Stoney Creek
ON
L8E 2P2
Do a search and Voila.
(zoom out if you want a farther look of the map)
If you want directions, click on the “Get Directions To This Location” link on top of the map and type in your address and it’ll show you the rest…and so on and so forth…
Don’t know how helpful the info I gave you is, but at least I tried.
Hope you can make it.
Tylrer; just look up the directions in this thread. Jaime posted them (possibly twice) just a couple of weeks ago so it will only be a few pages back.
Thanks. Wow thats far. I can’t make it even if I wanted to.
Maybe next time. Have fun
