Orrax Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Yeah, it's about time for a title change. Where is Dan to provide terrible puns when you need him? And two random things: - I've been messing with F-Sion. She's fun; I will probably give her a try next. It also seems like 5B and 3B might be suitable as AA. Anyone (i.e. Tempered) know if this is the case? - I bought a stick. A really cheap stick that would be good for modding. With some of the most abominable artwork I have ever seen (the All Stars Brawl Stick, to be precise). My reasoning was that I wanted a stick to mess with, it would give me a chance to try out having a stick before committing to something more expensive, and it would be easy to mod if I should decide to later. But there's a problem: It's defective. The up-right and up-left directions aren't read by the stick. It is pretty much unplayable right out of the box. That's what I get for buying a cheap piece of shit, I guess. I've checked online and it sounds like the most likely problem is that a washer is out of place. Sounds fixable, but I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm currently planning on just sending it back and getting a refund. Unless it really is any easy fix, does anyone know? Still, thinking it would probably be best to just send it back and not risk voiding my warranty. Edited August 21, 2013 by Orrax
Chumaralupa Posted August 21, 2013 Author Posted August 21, 2013 1. I actually lol'd at the description of your stick. 2. If it's anything like the madcatz SE or Hori poverty edition stick then it's going to be a horrid mess trying to mod it. Probably best to refund it.

If it's anything like the madcatz SE or Hori poverty edition stick then it's going to be a horrid mess trying to mod it. Probably best to refund it. I actually checked a video about how to mod it online before buying it and it looked really easy. Literally just like popping stuff out, connecting the new stuff, and then putting it back in. The joystick is supposed to be the same size as a Sanwa JLF, or something like that. But yeah, I'm still thinking it'll probably just be best to send it back. Maybe I'll actually make a commitment to learn stick and buy a decent one at some point?? Who knows.
M19Kamikaze Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 It's defective. 1. I actually lol'd at the description of your stick. Just makes you want to "climb to the top of the ropes and dish out a flying elbow drop" to it, huh? But yes, the description is gold.
Chumaralupa Posted August 21, 2013 Author Posted August 21, 2013 Yeah, something like that. Anyways Luke, I'm not sure what model it is exactly but I'd be willing to take a look at it, but of course if the part really was defective then it'd cost you to replace it, in which returning the whole stick for a replacement is still a better idea. Also, start pitching thread name ideas if we're going to change it. I do believe I can change the title without remaking the whole thread.
Theupstreamer Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 - I've been messing with F-Sion. She's fun; I will probably give her a try next. It also seems like 5B and 3B might be suitable as AA. Anyone (i.e. Tempered) know if this is the case? That character is actually super hype. Of all people, I think mehraj was the first one I saw to whore out 5b as an anti air and it would always cause the biggest wtf expressions from us. It's very good but I wouldn't use 3b as one. It looks too slow. Just input 5b 2b option selects for anti airs and if you get your counterhit then you can run up and do a 2b as they're falling and then jump a b c, land, jump b c, dj b c throw. She's very simple but her normals are very good. That 5a has raaaaaange
Valthazeryus Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Okay. I need to play GG. My co-worker in Japan says he plays GG and plays Sol and Eddie. We're fighting for the corporate ladder in December. Also, start pitching thread name ideas if we're going to change it. I do believe I can change the title without remaking the whole thread. By the way, my next suggestion is "All we hAZ is Drama in Arizona, Thread". Edited August 21, 2013 by Valthazeryus

Ryd' Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Dinner plans and hot male hookups have been ideas for years now. Why haven't you guys made it happen yet?
M19Kamikaze Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Hook up. Take you out to dinner. Bring you home for some wild. Crazy. GG/MB/BB/P4A action. Sounds like a great time. I'd be laughing at all the random traffic the thread would get. Even more so when we get the occasional out-of-state players.
Greyvangelist Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) I've been messing with F-Sion. She's fun; I will probably give her a try next. It also seems like 5B and 3B might be suitable as AA. Anyone (i.e. Tempered) know if this is the case? 5B is pretty much the anti-air of choice for F-Sion. Also 236B/C (aka Get Compton'd) is where it's at. I also started messing with F-Ries. If only because you get to do IAD backwards>j.6C in one of her corner combos and it looks cool. And magic series into cello stab does lots of damage. also as far as thread titles go, let's make it throwback circa 2006 and call it "Arizona thread..." Edited August 21, 2013 by Greyvangelist
LegendaryRath Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 I want to say something like, it's so hot that we're melting, like melty blood. But that sounds lame, so I'm sticking with hot male hookups for my vote.
Orrax Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) "Dinner plans and hot male hookups" was definitely a popular choice back in the day for a thread title. I'm surprised it didn't take. As for something new, all I can think of right now is "Arizona thread: We're still playing Melty." Anyways Luke, I'm not sure what model it is exactly but I'd be willing to take a look at it, but of course if the part really was defective then it'd cost you to replace it, in which returning the whole stick for a replacement is still a better idea. Yeah, I sent it back today. It'll have to just be a refund though; I ordered it through Amazon and they won't replace it. Thanks for the advice. That character is actually super hype. Of all people, I think mehraj was the first one I saw to whore out 5b as an anti air and it would always cause the biggest wtf expressions from us. It's very good but I wouldn't use 3b as one. It looks too slow. Just input 5b 2b option selects for anti airs and if you get your counterhit then you can run up and do a 2b as they're falling and then jump a b c, land, jump b c, dj b c throw. She's very simple but her normals are very good. That 5a has raaaaaange I've noticed 3B has some clash boxes on it, but yeah, it seems slow. Good to hear 5B is useful, though. 5B is pretty much the anti-air of choice for F-Sion. Also 236B/C (aka Get Compton'd) is where it's at. I also started messing with F-Ries. If only because you get to do IAD backwards>j.6C in one of her corner combos and it looks cool. And magic series into cello stab does lots of damage. Wait, gun as AA? That sounds... pretty hype, actually. I'll have to try that. I don't know much about Reis, but she seems good to me. That might have something to do with getting crushed by H-F Blade's Reis, though. Edited August 22, 2013 by Orrax
Greyvangelist Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Oh no, sorry not as AA. Just in general, 236B is good for zoning and stuff the one thing I hate about characters who use charge normals in their BNBs is if you tap the button and hold just a teeeeny bit too long, it comes out too slow and doesn't combo #scrubproblems
Tempered Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Yeah, it's about time for a title change. Where is Dan to provide terrible puns when you need him? And two random things: - I've been messing with F-Sion. She's fun; I will probably give her a try next. It also seems like 5B and 3B might be suitable as AA. Anyone (i.e. Tempered) know if this is the case? 5b and 3b work as anti airs. 3b isnt bad, but yes it is slow but it has clash frames. also fuck thread names. just call it AZ: We play FGs with Bombs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0LqjrkpZ1A#t=47m
Chumaralupa Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 So something along the lines of "Makin' Dinner Plans with Hot Male Hook-ups in Arizona, Thread"? Or should it worded a bit differently?
Chumaralupa Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 That sounds fine, by the way Tempered I couldn't help but listen to that whole glitch explanation. How the fuck do people find that.
Valthazeryus Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 The thread theme needs to change too then. We all need to print out escort cards of each other and start handing them out. "Get John for $35 within 20 minutes at your door! 1-480-AZ-FCKLOOP."
