Yeah I can bring my shit back again, Though I’m positive the plastic end one you have wont work for me. If we can’t get it resolved we could probably pitch in to get you a new one.
I just used your cords when I brought mine, and I never took any home but I’ll check my bag when I get home
when i brought my xbox i was initially going to use the cords that was plugged onto the tv on the ground but the power cord didnt work with my xbox so i decided to use my cords that i brought, so no i do not have your cords mandel.
Hopefully my frustration on this matter doesn’t seem out of the ordinary. I just spent a while not having my XBox due to RRoD, only to get it back and meet the same result. Not being able to play shit. The XBox fiasco pretty much ruined my mood last night, and the noise was simply the icing on the cake. I couldn’t get myself in the mood to play SFIV. I was giving serious thought to not having these anymore, but then I realized that this can and WILL work, but definitely with less people than last night. That was ridiculous.
Again, I cannot stress the importance of my desire to find that adapter. I’m seriously considering selling this XBox because what’s the point of having it, if I can’t even play it? At least I could get some money out of it. What I’m thinking may be the most frustrating thing about all this is that, since no one ever looks at the back of their XBox (understandably so), it’s easy to assume that since it works properly that that adapter is the one that they’ve always had. Easy for people to assume that “hey I’m not the one that has it, it has to be someone else.”
So with that said, I’ll be having peeps over on Thursday and then after that we’ll see. But I’m definitely taking a break from having people over after Thursday.
I generally am a pretty quiet person. I think I agree with the number of people thing, I can pretty much make either day at this point in time so if you just wanted to split things up possibly then I would be okay with showing up on thursdays, since there are already a lot of people who prefer the monday spot.
Your situation is pretty lame overall, so I know we all understand the frustration it brings. I know my Xbox adapter has always had the metal on the end so Im pretty positive there wasn’t a mixup between us, but I’m willing to bring my things over and testing it out to make sure.
When I checked the difference between the two adapters I recall that one you are in possession of outputs at 175, and the one I have been using outputs at 203 or something…I would think the output difference would be enough to be messing with someone’s setup, obviously yours isn’t working on that adapter so I would also presume someone else hasn’t been getting to play, but Its possible the problem might be one-way.
I personally think your gatherings should be 6-8 people. Any more and the noise just escalates because everyone tries to have a conversation over someone elses.
Also, Grats on premium.
Yeah I’m thinking each session should have about 6-8 peeps total. What I wanna do is continue having sessions on Mondays, and then have an additional session on Thursdays (or whatever day accomodates a decent # of people). I might even have to cut the # of peeps down to 3,4 if I can’t get a hold of another setup.
Unless something amazingly horrible happens knock on wood I’ll keep this going. This is exactly what our area needs. There are sessions popping up all over the place. Constant practice and constant play is what’s gonna raise everyone’s skill level. And so I don’t wanna be the only person who quits holding sessions, especially over something stupid.
mandels xbox has a plastic piece that blocks the plastic adaptors from plugging in. it might be because he needs the 203w adaptor since his xbox is older and needs more watts to run? ionno but the adaptor i have has a plastic tip and is a 175w.
selling your xbox isnt a bad idea either. you should check out that pawn exchange next to your place and see if they might be able to sell you a cord for cheap or maybe trade some shit in for it
yeah for sure ill bring mine next time i come… for sure i know i didn’t take yours but just incase ill bring it…and man i do not wanna see this session go away cuz man its been helping my game out a lot. if anything ill check craigslist to see if theres anybody selling it
I could always ask my bro if he can get a xbox Power cord and how much if you want. My brother works at Pawn Exchange.
Yknow I really really really really really don’t wanna do it, but it’s a scenario that is becoming more and more realistic. I need money for Evo registration. I can’t play it anymore, so why not? At the sametime, I shouldn’t have to do that though.
Thanks a lot Jeff.
Yeah man that’d be great. Thanks JOLOPEENO.
This is fucking ridiculous. Assuming Mandel doesn’t have this shit hidden in his house and forgot about it or he sent it in with his xbox and they didn’t send it back, or some other scenario like that SOMEONE who was there last week MUST have taken it. It definitely wasn’t me because I’ll I brought to Mandel’s was my stick and joint and all I left with was my stick. Come on guys, let’s find this shit so Deezo can play. He shouldn’t have to buy a new cord or sell his xbox or anything like that, let’s go.
most likely someone took it on accident without knowing … im most certain nobody intentionally wanted to STEAL it. that would be fucked up but anyways im sure this will be solved soon hopefully faster because if i was mandel id be going insane right now lol…
Dyam yo. Is thursday going on/can me+1(ekimris) come/we can bring a setup if needed!
Yeah you guys can roll through. Right now I’m only expecting Ghrrk, Brent, Elias, and Rat tomorrow/later today.
oooh you guys got the RATMAN coming to play, all ya’ll need to play his ass, cause he is like the BEST teacher w/o even trying to teach you shit.
Man, sorry to hear about that X-Box bullshit Mandel. Chin up, 'cause EVO will be tiiiiight. You don’t even know how much I wanna go to EVO. =/
