@Dash no Chris:

As you can see, I can't make it. Like I said, I have to work through the 29th, and that email came in the middle of the day. Which is why I'm responding to it now.

So you guys have fun and play lots of Billy without me!

 

[Ancient Flounder]

Last night was a lot of fun. Especially with that DVD with the runs for Takeda Shingen and Wachoo! (that was the only English provided for the title of the second game).

 

[taitai]

hey Domino-chan, guess what?

Remember that day we went out to Game Repair on Nellis to go check out NeoWave? Remember that Neo-tard we met?

That was none other than leslie m collins. The legendary leslie m collins.

So, is anything lined up for Sunday or Monday? I've had an itch to play some SvC Chaos with people lately. Would anyone be down with me bringing my PS2 copy if we all hang out?

AnimeVegas.

We'll have Hamabachan setup in the gaming room!

I completely spaced out about AnimeVegas. This week has been nutty for me. Hopefully, I'll be able to attend at least one day this weekend.

 

[Domino-chan]

I actually have the time off for Anime Vegas... but I don't have the fundage due to a shit paycheck this week. The dad's coming into town to help me buy the car... but unless you guys want to do a special Saturday night get together that's cool with me too. :3

Uh, that's ALL DIFFERENT KINDS of impossible...


Jeeze, just pick a day and pay the one day rate. I'm sure that you could find the $10 to go monday. Hell, I'll even lend you the cash if you don't have it. Quit making excuses and just come. (If only to see the Cigar box)

 

[Domino-chan]

Dude as much as I'd love to go, I can't. Like I said my fundage blows after scrounging up for the car (I clipped my way to $3,000). After this week (of the 8th-10th), I'll be on the road to financial recovery, and I'll have my own transportation to get togethers. I won't have to rely on you or Chris or Taiki anymore!

I think that takes precedence over everything else at the moment. At least you'll be able to get to see me more often.

But as I mentioned before, would you guys be willing to do a Sept. 9th get together? I wanted to introduce my dad to you guys. He's an arcade lover!

 

[Ancient Flounder]

So, how was AnimeVegas? lol

I would've gone today, but my work got annihilated by all the back-to-school shoppers showing up to get supplies. $26,000 on a holiday is just odd.

Weird.

i feel dead after AnimeVegas.

Not sure what's happening with me on Sat., 9/9 -- I'll have to see. I was wondering who might be available on Mon., 9/11 for a get-together at my place. Will you have your car by then, Dom-chan?

I'll make sure to punch the right faces to get out early on Monday. Maybe we can discuss when we want to get the next cigarbox project off the ground, as well as give Hamaba-chan a nice workout, too.

I hope so.

 

[Domino-chan]

Okay, so I don't have the car.

BUT!

I did put a down payment on a new scooter. Nanaki Chris and I drove with my dad down to this scooter sales place, and I began my investment on this awesome scooter, one you need a motorcycle license to operate. I will get full training compliments of the store, and my exam for the license is on October 9th.

So if you guys are still willing to hang out and pick me up, I can do something on the night of the 11th. Nanaki and i are going to see snakes on a plane during the day.

PS - Crank is an AWESOME movie. Go see it.

 

[Ancient Flounder]

@DnC: I'll be getting off of work at 5 tomorrow, so I'm most definitely free for a get-together. Do you want me to get a hold of you around 4:30 or so tomorrow afternoon to set up a ride to swing by and take me up to your place?

Edit: I'm inviting my friend Ross along tomorrow night to hang out with everyone. He needs to get out more anyways and he'll probably like some of the stuff we'll be playing. That, and he hasn't seen Maximum Impact 2 yet.

 

[taitai]

I'm up for an evening at DnC's place.

 

[Dash no Chris]

Been straightening up the front room (where Hamaba-chan is lording it over the rest of the furniture again) for most of the day. There was quite a bit to do, since all the stuff from our Anime Vegas booth got dumped in that room last Monday -- and moving most of it into the back room meant tidying that area up first. Toshiro finishes work at 5pm today, and Domino-chan is planning to take the bus across town to meet him at the end of his shift (figuring that one of us could duck over and pick 'em all up there at 5, since it's only a few minutes from my place).

@NeoTheranthrope
@taitai
What are your hours of availability today? I was hoping one of you might be able to make the above-mentioned 5pm pickup, possibly even grabbing food on the way back? Easiest thing might be just to grab a few of those $5 hot'n'now (hot'n'ready?) pepperoni pizzas from Little Sleazer's -- dunno how those sit with everybody, just throwin' it out there.

[taitai]

Workin' till 6. =/

Domi, DnC, gimme a ring with what's up.

 

[Ancient Flounder]

So, any plans for this Monday?

 

[taitai]

I'm going to recommend grabbing dinner at somewhere like Buffalo Wild Wings, and discuss V2 of the Hamakibako

Mostly because of the incompatability issues that we've had with that NeoBitz-S board.

Works beautifuly with NEO, but not so much with other systems...

next time, I'm going to recommend using the JROK board. The only thing we need to assemble would be the RGB + Ground + Sync harness. What's great about the current hamakibako setup is that we can build a 2nd input setup and use most of the same wiring.

The JROK's advantages are that it's far more compatable with the sacrifice of video quality, but it's not much, but if you're looking really close, you can see it. Not to mention it has rotary adjustments for the picture levels coming into the encoder so we can control it and not have the UBER BRIGHT display problem we had on Chris' TV.

 

[Lime2K]

<raises hand> I'm off this monday! Gimme a holla with what's up!

(I'm gonna be spending tomorrow getting Beast (aka my new Alpine Racer most-of-a-cab) downstairs, tested, and cleaned)

 

[Dash no Chris]

I'm free today and Monday, but I won't be able to host anything at my place this week. Any of you lot who've bought UFS cards interested in meeting at Dark Tower early-to-mid-afternoon today? (I've been wanting to fine-tune the deck I've been playing at the Tuesday tournaments at Hosehead's Hobbies) and maybe happy hour at Jersey's after?

EDIT: opted not to go to the movies today, and I'm thinking I won't try for Dark Tower, either. If only 1 or 2 of us are free today, why don't we just look toward tomorrow. Which Wild Wings are we thinking about, btw?

--Chris

 

[Domino-chan]

Count me out for September.

My finances have been a total wreck since the scooter investment so I wanted to recover a bit before even considering investing any more cash in cards or anything remotely fun.

October, as usual, is the month of the Banana, so I'll be back up and running by then.
