My work schedule changed a bit - I don’t get home until around 8:30pm on Wednesdays, and then I wake up at 4:30am the following morning.
I’ll try to make it out next week.
I’m coming down with Tania on Wednesday, since we got an out-of-towner showing up to the arcade during WNF. Gotta give him a proper welcome in socal and bleed his pockets dry of quarters.
Movie was sick though. The documentary is a lot more interesting to watch when you’ve met half the guys in there. Also, shout outs to Cole making it on the documentary. His only scene is where he’s watching porn in a hotel room, LOL.
You guys should do monthly ST tourneys hinthint.
I’d run one every week if I could, but neither Muffin nor myself can attend Wednesdays anymore. Someone else needs to run it if the scene wants to hold weekly sessions again.
Read damnit! I said monthly, not weekly!
Same argument holds. I can’t make Wednesdays, period.
weekly can be another day of the week… coughcough.
Tried that last time remember? People said Fridays would be the best day of the week to get together, nobody showed up but me, Tania, Muffin Man. Then people said Sunday would be a good day, but after about one week, it was just me, Tania, Muffin Man.
But I’ll poll around again and see who’d be willing to show up on a regular basis just to train for SCR.
yeah i totally understand. you and tania have been here more consistently than anyone. thanks for your efforts and hopefully everyone in this dying community will put forth more effort to keep it alive as long as possible. lemme know if theres anything i can help with. pz.
i know the ST cabs went down for about 2 weeks but incase you guys werent informed they have been up for a bit now. not sure what i can do personally to bring the people out here but ill be 100% honest in saying we appreciate the business and hopefully the few people who still play this game will come out to our place. aside from the power outage issue we also revamped the 1p and figured out why it was blacking out. so that issue is gone, if theres any others please feel free to tell me so we can handle it. thanks.
Ask and you shall receive!

So we’re having a tourney at Super Arcade this Saturday, 3-15-2014, for ST, A2, CVS2, and MVC2. ST starts at 5pm. Mando’s in charge and he’ll also be streaming it over at his channel: twitch.tv/iebattlegrounds.
Here’s the event page for facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/737809419596887/?ref_dashboard_filter=upcoming
So if you haven’t noticed, not much activity here in the forums anymore, but ST/HDR scene is still very active in coming up with events and discussions. Most, if not all, of this activity has moved primarily to facebook. So if you guys are still interested in seeing what the scene’s been up to, join us here:
Socal ST : https://www.facebook.com/groups/347729651958160/
No Honor Crew: https://www.facebook.com/groups/nohonorcrew/
Most of us talk in the NHC section, as that seems to be the biggest group that has a majority of the ST/HDR heads in one area.
How does one gain access to the NHC facebook page? Pretty sure I was an original member when EgoTrip (I think??) made the group on SRK.
You just click the link and ask to join. A mod should give permission soon. It was only made a closed group to prevent spam from reaching member’s friend’s news feed.
