New Year Gathering @ Lovegety (01/05/08)

LG tends to have cabinets that you will never find anywhere else in toronto. Its a fact.

In fact, he is one of the two locations in canada with a gundam seed-destiny cabinet. Regardless of how long we’ve suggested orbit to get it, they just ignored us.

now look who wins

That’s good to hear.

I hope the owner gets T6, it would be crazy

The sticks were clearly changed. The stick on the crappy side felt brand new, and wasn’t the same stick i used 2 nights before CC.

Big props to the owner/manager. He instantly fixed the screen problem on the Marvel cabinet even though no one asked him to, which was really cool.

I’m happy that i’m from Toronto (where the 2 best Marvel players really reside, Shaun and Ryan :wink:), thanks :lovin:.

im really sad i missed this tournament.

o well.
see u all at ottawa

Lol, I didn’t even know there was a tournament. I would got some KBBQ. C&C strikes again.

Playshit wont fix sticks FOR a tournament, LG does. Maybe you all need to play some more time shoulder to shoulder standing up for a few hours playing on american sticks downtown. Before you become appreciative for the great arcade that LG is.

“Matt; Pui’s definitely right on this one. That manager bent over backwards for us. He switched all the cabs when asked. Fixed all our sticks and buttons ASAP. Fixed two coin slot issues for 3S and refunded money. He came to me asking what games I’d like to see in order to keep the players happy. He even watched and cheered with us during tourney play. I give their manager all the respect in the world. He helped all of us run a great tournament and I’m a big fan of his arcade.”

Respect my motherfucking arcade, end discussion.

Appologies and thank you for saying it the nicest way you could :wgrin:, hope to see you around. And yes LG is THAT ground breaking.

Why should he have to appreciate an arcade he has never been to and probably has no intention of ever going to? Sure the manager was good, and I give him props, but you’re forcing it on everybody while simultaneously insulting all other arcades. He has every right to insult your arcade since its the one thing you seem to be passionate about, as it seems to be the only thing he can flame that gets you worked up enough to entertain him with your idiotic posts. You’re lucky Pui stepped in and said to not even associate you with LG or I’d be bashing it now too, despite how good it was.

Have you actually been to orbit recently? The guy is ALWAYS there to fix sticks, since they now gave the change guy keys and allow him to do so. He may be less knowledgeable but at least there’s always a tech on-site now. Not to mention it is at the very least on par with loveghetty based on location alone. Before you go bashing an arcade that you’re never at you should at least know the facts.

"Maybe you all need to play some more time shoulder to shoulder standing up for a few hours playing on american sticks downtown. "

And this is the most uninformed statement I have ever heard. For many of us, this is the most enjoyable way to play. Not only did half of the crowd learn on american sticks and most likely play better on american sticks, but the aspect of standing next to your opponent is the classic definition of the arcade fighting game. There’s nothing better than being able to turn your head and talk trash on the opponent mid game. . . And there’s the whole aspect of being able to hear the inputs from them as well.

Don’t bash what you don’t understand. I’d rather play on an american cab over a jap cab any day, and I’m sure every single person from Sauga/hamilton/brampton/downtown/STC would agree as well.

“Respect my motherfucking arcade, end discussion.”

You don’t get to say that, because you weren’t even part of the scene during the height of the arcade scene. You should learn to respect any arcade with enough balls and money to stay open right now, and since you don’t have that respect you can’t say ‘end discussion’ like you’re someone special.

In case you didn’t understand that point still, here’s a metaphor that might help you. Picture all those idiots who say ‘case closed’ after they think they’ve won an argument, assuming that simply saying ‘case closed’ means that they’ve won, but in reality all that happened was they’ve left themselves out to dry since they’ve clearly showed that they have no more facts on which to form an argument. That’s what you did, but normally people who say case closed actually do so with some understanding of the other side. You don’t even have a clue what you’re talking about and yet you think you can end the conversation by being an elitist prick and saying ‘end discussion’ without even researching the other side. Learn the facts before you run around forcing your beliefs down other people’s throats.

PS - No matter how good your arcade is, 95% of people would rather play on console, and when you get your head around this concept you might learn to respect every arcade that is open right now instead of bashing the rest and trying to single out just one.

PPS -

"If the Marvel players didn’t show at all and the cab got no use, thus wasting his time and money, you have an arguement. "

I don’t even think this is true. If no marvel players showed up there wouldn’t even be a problem. Tournaments are an open invitation for competition to show up. If people don’t show up its not out of disrespect or spite for the arcade owner, its because the scene would rather spend time doing something else or playing casual for free than do a tournament. Just because the arcade owner ‘went out of his way’ to fix the machine doesn’t mean we’re somehow obliged to return the favour by pouring quarters into his cabinet. That’s some pretty terrible logic. He fixed the machine in the hopes of drawing in competition and business, there’s no other way around this. The fact that you would even go out of your way to insult both the Marvel and CvS2 communities out of duty to your arcade doesn’t even make logical sense.

Did this manager do something personally for you? Has he done anything but what was best for business? You don’t owe him anything and we don’t owe anything to him. You’ve got some nerve coming out and saying we’ve disrespected him when the underlying mindset from a manger isn’t happiness and competition, but quarters going into machines.

You’re lucky Pui is posting enough positive stuff to give your arcade some respect, because if anybody was to see any post of yours as being representative of the loveghetty community I doubt it would ever get respect.

You FUCKIN idiot. Do you ALWAYS talk out of your ass?

I’ve been running RanBats at Orbit for the current session and the change guy is now able to open te machines and fix whatever is broken.

Orbit is also a bigger Arcarde so the guy has to deal with more people, thus maybe not being able to change whatever as fast, but he still gets the job done.

So your giving props for the manager for doing his job? Are you fuckin stupid? Do you give props to the cooks at the restaurants you go to? After all they do bend over backwards to cook you food. :confused:

And it’s not YOUR arcade. You haven’t done anything or any good in any game to claim LG as your stomping grounds.

PLEASE STFU, i instantly got stupider after reading your monstrosity of a post.

Well it was pretty cool to have the entire community together again, except I didn’t see any cvs2 heads (if they still exist).

And yeah CC you’re going a bit too far in your arguing considering you weren’t even there to see anything, but the marvel community and the other new players gave a good impression to the boss, and the boss gave a good impression to everyone else. The tournament was nothing but successful.

i put in good words for both marvel and cvs2 to the manager of lg :tup:

dont worry about the fact that no tourney happened, hes already impressed with the number of new faces he saw who play these games (including AH) and the skill level the game was played at.

And saying we disrespect him by not hosting a tourney for a game is just CC. coz that’d mean the MBAC guys (so half the gg players lol) disrespected him as well.

Why does the result thread of a successful tourney end up this way :sad:

cvs2 heads are an urban legend.

cause CC is a tool?

cc is the new, more articulate, less entertaining, lord.

but can he headcrush?

Yeah man, the last thing we need to do is go around bashing other arcades in a world where Arcades are dying/dead.

Toronto is blessed enough in North America to have 3 decent arcades, lets not burn our bridges here.

well what happen was i was suppose to come w/ forestblazer but i was suppose to meet him sumwhere @ 3:30 but i missed my bus and i was gunna cause them to be too late so i told them to go w/o me

yah i was pretty depressed about it i really wanted to go to =( oh well there is always next time =)

No G3 no MB

it only gets as simple as that

You dont own shit.

And I’m not disrespecting the “arcade” I’m disrespecting YOU. I’ll shit on you, I’ll spit on you, thats how much respect I have for someone as mentally challenged as you.

Like GerJay pointed out, where were you a few years ago when the arcade scene was somewhat alive and in need of players? You’ve been around for a few months and contribute nothing but you’re retarded, senseless posts. And ya I’m aware my posts arent useful and spread nothing, but hate, but someone has to say it to you or you’ll go on forever like the fucking retarded piece of shit that you are.

this is the first time ive ever wanted matt to carry my children

Wonders who CC is in-person, and if he’s ever met him…
