Why, at anime conventions of course. The Florence arcade is such a worthless piece of shit - I get sad when arcades close down but when that place tanks, I won’t shed a tear. The place is run by people that know absolutely nothing about pulling in anyone but stupid kids.
Only fighting game is MK4 which they’ve tried to get rid of for a year. Only racer worth playing is Hydro Thunder (FUCK CRUSIN’ EXOTICA). The SFA1 machine never worked right. Deal or No Deal and Deer Hunter USA are the “big draws”. Ms Pac Man never works.
I swear if I had the money and the motivation, I’d buy the place in a heartbeat and not fuck around from day 1. No skeeball, no stupid ticket or prize games, just fighting games on one side, everything else (rail shooters, racers, and vintage stuff) on the other. Tournaments every month. Minimum 2 Neo-Geo cabinets. Astro City cabs everywhere for the older fighters. Crazy Taxi. And if the redneck families don’t like it - screw 'em, they can go somewhere else.
I’m at work until three today and I can’t host but if anyone else can text me and let me know ASAP. I wanna get some games in. If nothing else, I’ll be on Xbox Live tonight after I get off =/

My bad Oak… Drama at work has been keeping me out of it. I usually get online late so I usually get random matches on xbox live. I might be able to host either Friday night or Sunday… Saturday is looking iffy. So Huntsville peeps let me know whats up.
Sorry I didn’t respond to your text, my phone died. Honestly, I would host if I could but I’m only 18 and I still live with my parents who aren’t exactly cool with me having people 5-10+ years older than me over for SF. I want to have people over but it’s damn hard for me to host, especially if it’s only for 1-2 other people.
Edit: Rick, if you host I’ll be down. Let me know what you decide, homie.
Yep, I move into my dorm on the 21st of August. I was going to get an apartment but I figured it would help me get to know more people if I were living on campus, and it saves money.
Good thing is I live about 2-3 miles off campus already. Free housing is so GDLK. And I’m tryin’ to figure out where I could hold a small paying tournament up here
