Damn.

With Kevin?

When was the last time we even had a gathering?

wut

When has it been alive?

I thought the same about Sledge. I think it's actually be really threatening if they actually gave it Hammerfall properties too where it'll absorb 1 non-projectile damage and actually made it where there wasn't a punishable gap between the Sledge and Hammer. :D On a serious note, that shit gets baited so hard if you just use it to travel across the map. The 5B > 5C is really bothering me. To be honest, I wished they just nerfed the proration instead. I'll admit, 5A > 5B > 5C > Spark Volt > MTW > TB did quite the number. I think if you just made it prorate a lot more, it'd be balanced, but I don't really like the idea how it's going to change with a whole bunch of strings. I would've been ok with a big proration nerf on P1 5A that would be perfect for me. (not considering the potential heat gain on a 3-hits 5A combo versus a 10-hits one). I wish it was like the original Overdrive move they were testing out where his OD would magnetize opponents on activation, pre-magnetized or not as well as made the pull a bit stronger. Actually, just changing the pull property might be better cause with OD, it didn't really seem to be extremely noticeable. Or also just give Slide Head that magnetizes if they get hit. But Slide Head looked stupid in my opinion; maybe give him a move where he just slams his giant fists into the ground and does Slide Head stuff.

My only big complaint about it is the gate that holds your cord inside a little compartment that's built along-side the stick falls off from time to time. Erik and Chris don't even bother with the gate anymore and just wrap the cord around the whole stick. I still use mine though, cause I have OCD and everything needs to be neat and tucked away in little cubbies.

The only difference between the HRAP V3-SA and Kai is just the distance the stick is from the buttons. I personally don't like the idea of dual modding, so I spent like another $120 on ebay to buy HRAP VX-SA for Xbox. ebay is generally cheaper, too, and it's not really as shady as you think it'd be when it comes to shopping for sticks. If you're not looking for a pre-dual modded stick, I'd recommend the Hori as I agree with Ruben, I think it's the Lamborghini of fight sticks.

Anyone have spare gate switches?

TEAM GOOFY4GAMES ARE THE ONLY ONES IN THE POOL ACTUALLY PLAYING?! WTF.

Yeah. Like I don't play Floe anymore, so I am kind of disappointed. Also, the Gundam VS brackets aren't up yet either.

Erectile dysfunction. You get this erectile dysfunction.

It was too slow-beat for my tastes and the thing I like the new one's keyboard and guitar solo.

I'm for whatever sounds heavy/metal. This new GG is floating my boat. I personally liked the Korean GG OST a bit more. As for BB, I think ALL the CP remakes are better than the old ones, but I think that's just my bias towards Galneryus.

These new Xrd songs are hot. Like this new Burly Heart(?) is so much better. All these new songs are good. ESPECIALLY Bedman's.

Wow. Akira looks so hot. His hairstyle reminds me of Kaiki Deishuu though.

Don't care.

I think this is just a way of Ted saying "see guys, she doesn't ALWAYS top" especially that third day.

I get bodied too.

Thanks for hosting, Tempered and Dippy! GGs to Ray and Wang.

If you could PM your address, I'll try to make my way over tonight.

Do you get a lot of people playing BBCP, Tempered? If you do, I'd be interested, since I want to start practicing 23 hours a day until SCR.
