Not in halifax. in esquimalt…other coast. Seriously considering choosing east coast as my posting for when im done my trade training here. Just fishing for other pros and cons. I hate the weather you guys get there but the cost of living far outweighs that imo. Housing here is probably top 5 in the country hands down. From what I hear the girls there seem to love navy guys too where here they pretty much avoid us. Regardless if I choose to end up there I will be there most likely late july.
Yeah, cost of living ain’t shit here, but it’s balanced by the fact we don’t get paid shit either haha I imagine you get paid the same regardless pf where you live though, so you can probably be quite well off.
I think I don’t need my copy of MVC3 right now - I’ll probably just trade it at TLG (edit: quite possibly today, Thursday, but depending on when my sweet government money comes in) but before I do, anybody want to take it off my hands? We can talk price later but I’m thinking like forty bucks. It’s in primo shape and probably only played like ten times.
I sort of didn’t play it for a month and by then everybody who was terrible stopped playing, so now I just get my ass handed to me within about twenty seconds. I know I gotta put time in, but I don’t think I can train my ass off in two games (especially since I can only compete in one of 'em) - drop me a line and if you go to SF Mondays I can bring it then.
Also to stay on convo - I’m pretty sure NS has a decent minimum wage compared to other provinces now! I remember a thousand years ago (er, maybe like 7) BC’s $8/hr was considered amazing - now I think NS is up to like 8.65 an hour or something, while BC remains at 8. But yeah, the HFX is great; the only people I can see having it in for the military are the anarchists, and they’re all pretty scrawny.
Minimum wage in NS is $9.65/h. I think it’s supposed to increase to $10 at some point soon (I may be wrong about this). The cost of living in Halifax is not as low as you would think based on how much lower average salaries are for a given occupation. Income tax and property tax is also among the highest in the country.
Not to mention the fact that our tuition rates are the highest in the country, and are raising again, but that’s no big. I mean, students have money coming out the wazzo right? As long as you don’t mind running the risk of being stabbed, you can find a cheap apartment pretty easily in Halifax.
Well just to give an idea of here. Apartments here for a 1 bedroom when you find a CHEAP one are about 850+ with no utilities. When they’re that cheap most of the time its in an area full of trash. When you move into a decent one its usually more often around 1100. To me that is pretty damned insane. And the housing compared to my hometown…my parents have a house that is 130 k in windsor ontario in a pretty good area but a place like that here would be mimimum 300 k no doubt about it.
I like [media=youtube]jKm2DNiYA_Y"[/media] does anyone else like DLC?
Time to Die!:tup:
The cost of living here in Halifax is higher than it was in Quebec City, that’s for sure. Just for housing though, everything else is more or less the same. Actually, the tax here is now higher than it was in Quebec.

Also, here’s the video I was talking about the other day: [media=youtube]BIUTDku0Wxk&feature=player_embedded[/media]
Capcom got to that video before I could. Minimum wage is indeed going up 10 bucks, as Omega-Ox said. On an unrelated note, I need to do 100 left facing Hadoken Ultras on my stick cause I totally suck with it.
Original was taken down, here’s another copy: [media=youtube]jKm2DNiYA_Y[/media]
Ox is gonna so use Oni, and I’m so gonna use E.ryu its going to be the new Ryu vs Ken :tup:
I’m totally giving Oni a try, that’s for sure. I wish my buddy I used to play SFA2 with was still around here. He was always E. Ryu.
Lame to be excited about the improved replay mode? I am just happy about searching replays by player, that’s gonna be megadope.
Also super pumped for Dud’s improved HK!
anybody down for super on 360? jpg1980
Dud didn’t even get half of what he needed, he got more combo potential, but not any help in the getting in department.
didnt they give him an ex duck that is 100% projectile passable much like bison ex scissor? that helps getting in imo…and to be blunt he should have a little of a hard time getting in considering he is pretty much the destroyer of worlds when hes on your ass. only big issues i ever found with him that i hated was his inability to deal with fucking shoto low forward nonsense. pretty sure i read that his cr hk was faster. if its fast enough to os thats a pretty huge upgrade imo.
Yeah that’s an awesome part. I even like how it shows titles/icons in the match. I mean why not, right? Seems like an all around upgrade.
Dudley’s duck was always projectile invincible. The new ex duck is essentially a faster version of it, making some combos that were not possible in Super 4, possible in AE. S.HK is now 0 on block which makes it super safe. F.HP has a larger hit box which is good. Now, what, imo, Dudley needed, was a buff to his footsies game and some way to get in on characters that play keep away, like Dhalsim. Sorry if it sounds like I’m bitching, but honestly, in a game that revolves around footsies, playing a character who doesn’t really have any is like entering a foot race without legs. Yeah, you can crawl to the finish, but you’re not going to win the race. And if you want to see what I’m talking about with needing something to get in on keep out characters, play Dudley against Shrub’s Sim.
I don’t think that many commas is legal. certainly not in ontario anyway
