Gabe is also working two jobs which is the cause of his being MIA.
Edit this should also make the Memphis SF peeps happy

(5:16:24 PM) **Eraser: **keeping my style alive.
I’m still unemployed after graduating in May. Shit’s rough… so I’m broke. Thus, no fight nights for me. Went for an interview yesterday, but never got a callback. These employers are looking at me and thinking, “He can’t complete any duties we give him,” even after I try explaining I can type, write, make phone calls, etc. just as fast/well as everyone else. Frustrating as all hell.
Did you ever try UPS Astaroth? I never asked Jessica if they were still on a hiring kick but as much changes as they were going through I would guess they are.
Oh hay, I play fighting games too, and I come to fight nights when I can, and I’ve been around since day 1 of SF vanilla. I wouldn’t call myself a “Vet” or anything but whatevs.
Come if you can
If you can’t, that’s cool too.
I can say that in the past few years working (hanging out) at Game Galaxy, we have seen a number of people come and go. Some good, some bad, some awful, but the fact of the matter is I’ve gone out of my way to make everybody feel welcome and wanted in one way or another (no oral) and tried to help the community out in some way or another. Shit, I spammed lariat for a year and was berated for that shit, so what lol.
I started the FB community on FB to try to get new blood, and it’s slowly working. I’ve been telling these new people to register if they want on SRK and post, if not, just say hi on FB and who you are and what you play. We’re doing what we can man, shit I’m trying to get Tekken picked up here by more people than 2 at the moment because it’s fun.
People get busy. Real life is more important that mashing DP. Hell, I start a new job next week unloading trucks on 3rd shift. I’m likely to be a ghost at Fight Night, but fuck it man, its work.
There should never be calling out or drama on the Nashville community in here by our own players for not showing up to fight night and playing video games. Don’t make me turn the hose on you guys.
oh, btw
Random “community vet” moment:
“First off: Who are you”
“I’m the guy still in the winners bracket”
Well, I’m off all day, I think some of the guys from bowling green are coming down. We were thinking about maybe meeting at the arcade so milln could meet us in th middle. I’ll know more today is Kerry gets back with me.
@Jason moving it to Friday would kill it for me. I work more Fridays than Teusdays so it would be very hard for me to be there. This Teusday is my first off in a while (yay) so i’ll be able to come. If I can find 6$ that is (cause I’m broke right now).
@Zeth keep me posted on your FN tmrw. I’m free after I wake up.
@SRKFADC yeahhhh I passed out on my bed after work last night…what was your XBL again?
Alright, so I’m going to be home all day tomorrow, I believe milln is going to head up sometime with a second setup. If anyone wants to come out for games and maybe chill by the pool/throw food on the grill let me know.
I think every single person in this thread is ultra busy. I haven’t even had time to check the thread and see what was going down in here.
I’ll be up sometime, indeed, My phone’s voice radio is acting crazy as if it were deactivated, additionally the data is messed up, so I can only communicate via the internet. Either through email, iMessage, or Twitter.
Beat Borderlands 2 last night. The final boss was pretty easy. The hardest parts in the game for me was Mad Mike and random Super Badasses in huge swarms. A super badass Constructor can tear you up in less than a second.
Milln pointed out something to me. I might’ve had trouble with Mad Mike due to it being early in the game, and Gunzerking leaves you really vulnerable. A bad shield + playing multiplayer = a dead Gunzerker.
