We've long had a lot of good players in the city, there's just never been any kind of community amongst gamers up here. In fact the only time I can remember one forming was after the popularity explosion of Soul Calibre II.

Thanks for the tip about the sars mall arcade!, I haven't bothered going there in ages now.

There was rgcanada but it turned into a place-o-losers, soul calibre looks cool and I loved watching a tournament for it at funland. These guys were seriously good at the game. But I actually get absolutely no enjoyment from playing it. I do love watching people play who're really good at it, I enjoy that with any type of game. Oh there's a small street fighter 3rd strike community. Sometimes we have 3rd strike parties and I love going to those since I really like playing 3rd strike.

Not a problem. I got invited to a 3rd strike party so this works for me. I've had stuff get mad delayed in the mail before so I know the feeling

We've probably all been there. I had a package just "held" in Windsor for several days because of some payment issue by the sender or something.

Would anyone else showing up to jonny5's meet be arriving by car and require a parking space? (just asking to make sure there is room in case there are plenty of no-parking signs)

I pm'd you around 3 pm from my memory. And udderdude didn't even ask if I was busy. He just left while I was sitting in my room

jonny5 · Post by **jonny5** » Sun Mar 30, 2008 2:53 pm

well that was a shitty thing to do...he told me you were busy.....i will definitely make sure i let you know next time....i figured cuz you were roommates that you would come together

yeah....okay....I was on msn before he left. I'm pretty sure he was on msn too. I don't think my status was set to "busy". Usually I have music playing when I'm home. It also wouldn't have hurt to knock on my door. I was also expecting you to pm me too just because lol

jonny5 · Post by **jonny5** » Sun Mar 30, 2008 2:59 pm

SFKhoa · Post by **SFKhoa** » Tue Apr 08, 2008 5:40 am

Yeah I went to Lovegety today at like 8pm and there was DDPDOJ as a new addition there.

Btw, is it the same cab as the one in craigslist? Or was it another one?

jonny5 · Post by **jonny5** » Tue Aug 05, 2008 3:03 pm

no im buying brendz's mint new astro.....very nice.....picking it up some time this week/weekend

esprade should be here in a day or 2 and mushi will arrive mid nextweek....

exciting!!!

SFKhoa · Post by **SFKhoa** » Wed Aug 06, 2008 5:50 am

Yay. Can't wait for the next meet.
Oh, also, the stuff you helped me buy on P-A arrived several days back. Thanks again!

jonny5 · Post by **jonny5** » Wed Aug 06, 2008 11:38 am

i would hope....that shit was ordered like a month ago

SFKhoa · Post by **SFKhoa** » Wed Aug 06, 2008 2:33 pm

I would've got it earlier if it wasn't for those fucking retards over at Canada Post. I got that little strip that said "pick up at the post office", so I've been going there repeatedly and they kept telling me they don't have the package until like 4 days later.

jonny5 · Post by **jonny5** » Wed Aug 06, 2008 2:38 pm

ya...cuz playasia sends stuff with delivery confirmation....

all was ok tho?

if we do that again we can just get it sent to me.....that way you can get it right away

SFKhoa · Post by **SFKhoa** » Wed Aug 06, 2008 2:50 pm

Yeah, everything's cool now. Thanks again.

damakable · Post by **damakable** » Thu Sep 11, 2008 5:51 am

Hey, guess what. I'm in T.O., downtown. So let me know, if you want to shmup.

I'm also a prodigy in Guitar Hero. Wanna form a Rock Band? Or is that lame? Well, I gave up on GH for real instruments anyhow...

I think now that I'm settled into this city I'd like to encourage a gaming community, somehow. It's just more fun playing in the same room with people. Anyhow, I'd meet just about anywhere I can get to by bike or TTC.

jonny5 · Post by **jonny5** » Thu Sep 11, 2008 12:04 pm

i have pretty regular meets at my place every couple weeks....keep yours eyes open...next one is probably going to be sept 27th

http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?t=21042

im in the st. clair and keele area

look forward to hanging out and playing some games with ya

damakable · Post by **damakable** » Thu Sep 11, 2008 9:12 pm

Cool, that's definitely within range. I'm at Dundas and Shaw, across from Trinity Bellwoods. Maybe I'll bring my old roommate, we tend to play co-op Geometry Wars now and again. He's a good fellow, going to UofT.

I don't have a Wii to play any more, since it's his. I wonder if I'm still in the top 10 of the GW Wiiderboards (as DODONPACHI, natch). If not I might have some catching up to do... anyhow, keep in touch, I look forward to it.
