HQQ Dictatorship still stands
Poll Time:
Vote whether HQQ buttons should be A) $2 or B) $3, don’t care about a reason, just vote. This means that HQQ will in part subsidize the cost of replacement buttons due to wear and tear and general play.
Anybody who abstains from voting is not counted in voting total, also if you’ve never come out to hqq (Aka put money into the hqq fund) you definitely do not get a vote.

HQQ would be losing some money do to this, which means in theory things might take longer to buy, but once again, sticks and what not are needed for HQQ to run, and the cost would also be minimal, because let’s be honest, how often are buttons replaced? I’ve had my stick for 2 years now and I’ve replaced one button in it.

Obviously this doesn’t imply some random jerkoff can come in, buy 200 buttons, and go sell them on his own or something, just replacement for broken buttons.

As it is currently Monday, I figure voting should end by HQQ this week, aka Thursday around like what 6? I don’t know I dont show up before 7 ever.
Current Tally:
A($2) = 1
B($3) = 0

Does pad player gets to vote?

Remixed · February 28, 2012, 2:24am

Does it matter? New buttons aren’t going to help them win.

familyman · February 28, 2012, 3:25am

Damn kevin, why so troll?

Is it worth buying a Dual Modded Stick? I don’t play on 360 but all the tournaments seem to use 360. I should really try to get the sense of the tournament scene and the skill level here in Ottawa… I’ve never really played offline.

jak_d_ripr · February 28, 2012, 4:19am

Well if your planning on going to tournaments I think its worth the investment just so you have your own stick to fall back on. You should come out one of these fridays and check out the scene though, despite how douche baggy we might seem online were actually really nice people in person. Except for Irockthevote, hes an asshole.

MasaBlade · February 28, 2012, 4:22am

yeah hes the epitome of scumbag

Aug · February 28, 2012, 4:29am

Does come out refer to HQ I keep hearing about? Or an actual tournament I wasn’t aware of?

jak_d_ripr · February 28, 2012, 4:32am

Oh no I was referring to the HQ you keep hearing about, its where we just play casuals and MM when were feeling rich.

familyman · February 28, 2012, 4:33am

Come out to HQ on thursday and friday nights, dont forget to bring salt and water as a token of submmission to the will of holy Xerxes.

Aug · February 28, 2012, 4:36am

As a person of young age, sure sounds scary <_<. Just wondering, how many people are at HQ on a*** good*** night?

iRockTheVote · February 28, 2012, 4:55am

Don’t worry we take care of our children, such a Masablade (PS You guys are just haters).
On a good night I’d say there’s 10+.

Also, of course pad players have a right to vote, you guys put money in just like everyone else.

Here is my submission of salt and water to the Holy one

They have served the Dark Will of Persian Kings for 500 years. Eyes as dark as night, Teeth filed to fangs, soulless.
The personal guard to Xerxes himself, the personal warrior elite, the Immortals (Dev).

Who wishes to challenge my Immortal?

MiddleKingpin · February 28, 2012, 5:25am

if we r both there on the same day sure.

FreezerB · February 28, 2012, 5:31am

Actually, there is an interesting update on this. But QQ just a little longer, I’m updating two months worth of money into the spreadsheet tomorrow.

On a slow nights, about 6 people. On regular nights, 10. The max at one point was I think 20.

We’ve randomly seen some younger people (Abenson and gang, Masablade) at HQ and they’ve fit in alright, if that’s any indication.

Aug · February 28, 2012, 5:38am

Damn that was a good way to kill 30 minutes. I don’t think I’m that good. I definitely want to play now though. Haven’t ever used a stick or a 360 Controller though. I’ll figure it out…

Remixed · February 28, 2012, 5:51am

The picture says it all.

I, too, wish to put his name to the test.

I think there are converters… If not, you can always buy one or HQ can opt to carry one or two for such people.

MasaBlade · February 28, 2012, 6:00am

like everyone else said im only 15 (as of like 2 weeks ago) and i get along with 'em. would advise you not to play a couple people if youre free tho rofl

in other news are you guys hype for sfxt or still on the meh side

MiddleKingpin · February 28, 2012, 6:05am

will play it, reserving judgment til I get some lab time with it.
Looks interesting from an execution standpoint, will have to see how smooth it runs when we play IRL.

MasaBlade · February 28, 2012, 6:10am

amen
