Utah Thread: Arcade Edition @ GameGrid

What the fuck is taking lizard so long. fuck that

I think my order that i made 5/18 is getting shipped out today or tomorrow. you can check here to see what they’re shipping:

I wanted to give LL one more chance but I’m sticking with modchipman from now on.

Why is this? Is it to stressful to run? Keep in mind nathan and I are experienced tourney runners and we are more than willing to help in any way we can. Switching it to invite only would really suck for many people for many reasons.

Invite only is lame…just ask for help Andy. Make it RSVP if you have to.

I’ll help with Matty’s laptop and recording/renaming if you still need someone.

The invite only thing is sorta bomba to the ideals you want. You want to bring more people in to have a good time and bring the competition. Not alienate newcomers. Get some help if you’re under the pressure.

Yeah, Andy if you need help, you’ve got it.

What in the hells bells how??? i ordered on the 5/11 and still nothing. what did you order??? i know the guys who ordered seimitsu stuff got theirs cuz some sanwa buttons are back ordered.

And Andy like everyone says we would love to help any way man. I aint worth shit but if you need it man theres plenty of us that would jump up. If ya need a nut Sucking or somethin i guess i’ll have to step up

I’ve already decided who gets invites and not. Sorry to the guys I just don’t like… cause you don’t get an invite.

Btw, MS E3 conference in a few minutes for the people bored at work:

http://e3.g4tv.com/e32009/pressconference/microsoft/19/

i just ordered ball tops no pushbuttons this time and I thanked the secret garden people on their boards. I dunno about the invite only thing, how will new players come into the scene will they have to try out? and making a list every other week sounds like a lot of work too, it brings up too many problems i think. Why shrink the scene when its currently getting bigger? If you need help, i can help record and whatever you need if it’s calling people to play or just handling the brackets. As other tourney runners, i went to the Smash tourney’s that Nate and Zack held and they ran well so i can vouch for them as doing good work since I’ve been to a few of their tourney’s before

Left 4 dead 2 was the highlight of that conference for me.

That new PSP looks alright

Alan Wake and Crackdown 2 :rock:

Most people bought Crackdown for the Halo 3 beta…I bought it because Crackdown is a great game lol

And it’s about damn time Alan Wake is coming out.

That milo (Lionhead Studios), little boy interaction thing is too creepy. I cant help but picture How to catch a predator doing a story on that.

I can’t wait for some of these new fighters coming out. I’m sick of fighting Ryu’s and Sagat’s all day.

Damn, best day of work ever. Didn’t have to do shit.

Guys, sorry, but the invite thing is just an IDEA. Matty and I have been throwing around the idea. Seems as if not many ppl are helping clean up b/c I got some complaints last time from the p42 guy. Last ranbat, I was desperately calling around for ppl to bring tv’s and consoles b/c the original ppl that promised couldn’t or wouldn’t

I don’t want to make it invite only, b/c I like the scene but I can do w/o the douche bags who don’t help. I’ve opened my door a plenty for ppl as for as letting use my place, lending sticks, and selling cheapass Sanwa parts; I don’t expect reciprocal change but I do ask that ppl clean up when I ask and also post on a forum saying “Thank you.”

I understand that’s tough work and all, but seriously. . .it would take 5 minutes out of your day.

P.S. Thanks for all who posted on protocol42.com. Particularly Kyle, Jru, Matty, Wade, Brian, Kelly, Rudy, sorry if I left you out.

Thomas, this is real advice. The game SF4 I find just as fun as I did Feb. 17. The reason: play a bit less man. Anything gets old after 2 hrs a day or more. Just don’t play for a day or so. This ain’t professional basketball, you won’t drop your skills. Then when you pick it up again, you’re like Jesus fuck this is fun. Trust me on this.

Sorry if I’m one of those douchebags. I always try and offer to help.

I actually haven’t even played much lately. I think really what I need to do is just play on a different account and get back in G2. Because G1 is fucking gay.

You ended up in G1 in like 2 seconds, there’s a reason why your there fast, one you have skills but more importantly you have to play a shitload.
