Why not a round robin? If people aren’t available on a single night, it could even be spread over multiple get togethers, as long as the matches are all completed…
Cus I’m Nate, and I’m totally all about the sex…with girls!
I’m not against a round robin as I think everyone should have a chance to make the team, but I do agree with Keith in that we should elect a captain and have him decide. As it stands I’m still not sure if I’m even gonna get to make it. More than likely will be working a retail job during the holidays and I can’t imagine them letting me get a Saturday off during December. But Gentlemen, that’s why we LIE. After all, my Mom is getting married in Portland on December 15th am I right?
Blake, i did have my third virgin last Thursday…so now i’ve had more than a suicide bomber. Now i have paradise cred
Post more please. Since we’re on the topic of sex, one of the last times I was kickin it with Kenny, he turned to me and said,
“Mandel, straight up, one of two things need to happen to you. You need to get laid, or you need to beat the shit out of somebody.”
I agree.
I vote for beating the shit out of somebody. Truely. Or watching lots of football and mma.
I’ve found that the best lies are the self deprecating ones. Or, at least the ones that make you appear vulnerable.
You’re mother’s not just getting married. She’s getting remarried, . . .AGAIN. Since you didn’t approve of the last guy, you guys had a falling out. You’re just now talking to her again, and being there would be very important to her. Missing this would be catastrophic for your relationship with her. Any manager that denies you leave after you lay it on thick like that would just be heartless.
Never lie about having to attend a ceremony where you’re being decorated with the Nobel Peace Prize. The simple, embarrassing lies are the ones that people buy. I knew a guy who was able to retake a final that he missed in college because he told the professor that he got drunk weeks prior, experimented with homo sex, and got an infection.
I’d pay to see that. I’m a fan of violence, but more so in slapstick form. On a related note, I think I’ll forfeit my next match against you.
I like Deezo’s list, except for the fact that I am not on it. Can I challenge Nate, or Axel to a duel? It would be glorious.
You should like… show me how to do this. Most I’ve done is open my stick to reconnect the mp button that sometimes gets disconnected. I see how it works but like, I’m scared to do anything and fuck it up. Seriously though, I have a DC controller to sacrifice and everything, and really need DC abilities on my stick so I can get into Marvel again.
join team HEART. i’ll make t-shirts.
No problem. There are pretty simple padhacking guides out there on the net, but I suppose I could set up a detailed picture demonstration. Remind me about it before monday, and I’ll e-mail it to you or make a post on SRK.
First things you want to get are the following:
-1 Soldering iron (preferrably 25-35 watts) with pointy tip (not bevel)
-2 rolls of solder (one being silver-core solder, the other being rosin-core solder)
-wire
-quick disconnects
-rags (for wiping solder off the tip of the iron)
-electronics screwdriver for disassembling the controller safely
-craft knife (or any knife you don’t mind using to scrape metal with, and can control precisely)
-pliars
Jamie, I have two Topmax Enforcer PCB’s for hacking but I can’t find a picture with the solder points, could you make a pic or something so I could have two DC sticks next time? :tup:
And I haven’t been keeping up, but the shoulder buttons lag on official DC pads if they are hacked, right?
Just had a really awful lunch, capped by really awful desert. They called it “custard” on the menu, but it was something akin to egg porridge.
If people are interested in a session at my place on Friday, let me know. Nothing’s really set in stone yet, as I’m not certain whether I’ll be committed elsewhere. For the time being, I’m just taking a pulse and seeing who’s interested. Keep in mind though, I’m down to one converter. So if Julian (with his DC sticks) or Pablo (with his converter) don’t show, it’s a no go.
Shoulder buttons do not lag on the official dreamcast controllers. Trust me on that. Maybe if you hack them wrong? The shoulders can get messed up easy. Anyways, I’ll start making pictures on how to hack a DC pad tomorrow when I fix up another box (I’m making a p360 stick for Gogandantes). I don’t know about the Topmax enforcer pads, though. Every pad looks different.
Edit: Never EVER use pads with plunger shoulders. You have to keep every part intact or you will randomly get moves you didn’t input. meaning you can’t pull off the analog stick, plungers, or any connected boards. Actually, it will still lag like crazy. Just don’t do it.
I never understood ST but always wanted to learn it. Is the sf2 wiki the best thing for a ST newb?
I think the best way to learn ST is to get beasted on by better players until you can hang with them, it’s how I learned! Reading the wiki will help you understand the engine a lot better, but it won’t help you much if you don’t have any experience
So come join the ST crew sometime, we are a jolly bunch (except for Keith, that dude is a chump and a half)
at least he shows up
Hey, I never said I was going to make it today, I had important stuff to do :V
I would have shown up too, but I have been slacking in class and need to catch up. Once I am done with school I am moving up 3 spots in the rankings, please believe. ST is fuckings serious.

Cmon Alex! Sounds like a job for SOBATCARNIVAL.COM!
I don’t recall Alex ever claiming that the DC version had any noticeably different hit properties. And don’t distract the man. As though he didn’t have enough excuses for delaying the hit box displayer already.
On a side note, I take it that no one’s interested in games at my place on Friday. Since over two days have passed and no one’s voiced intent on attending, I’ll probably look for something else to do. The whole spontaneous gaming session thing just doesn’t work for me. People who just show up without even letting me know ahead of time are just plain rude. Kinda like what Alex did last time.
I bought some soda and apple cider which can be saved for whenever people eventually show up next time. But I forgot the purple drank. I’m not sure I can handle the smell of that stuff anymore. My conscience also can’t justify paying money for coloring and citric acid.
I can’t commit to anything right now, sorryz.
