We were 7th last year, but there has been better teams this year too.
Happy to have helped the team get some more points, and I'm happy I finally got to learn ESPGaluda.

All you have to do is drop me from the team and you go up a few spots in STGT :P

MX7, I just saw the Guillotine Masturbation link in your signature... are you connected to them? I just happened to saw them on some other corner of the Internet the other day. It's a small world!

@Illyrian: awesome, hope to see you there!

@Ali: I named the project after a particularly foul guro manga I found a few years back, so it might have been that you saw referred to! It's basically a solo noise project to practice for my band with HZT, and we will be breaking into the UK top 40 any day now!

I definitely saw your blog page actually *and* the Megabus cover, specifically! (I've lived in Megabus in the past) I can't remember where in the hell it was though... the blog of the KanjiDamage page maybe, that's the thing that makes most sense. As I said, small world!

(I can vouch I have negative interest in guro. Or manga really)

Lovely! The She-spadgy is out getting ratted with the girls tonight, so I'm in no rush to go home. I'll join you at the pub!

See you lot at the pub tonight...

I'll be over in early and mid October.
Still playing the odd bit of 2-loop Pork on the X360 and looking to play something new... :idea:

Was everyone alright after leaving the pub last Thursday? I went down with a fever for a few days; really hope I didn't infect anyone :|

Anyway, normal service down the arcade this Thursday for a proper bash at Shiki?

Stop contaminating everyone in this thread :|

A little over two weeks to go for that SF tournament (of course Capcom will only release details on the last minute), and I'll probably pop by in Casino during the week after.

Someone give me a slap if I ever complain about Casino again.

I've gotten my news briefing now, thanks :P

Are any of you guys looking for an EX-SE 360 stick on the cheap (or know anyone who is)? I'll hand deliver it in Casino or elsewhere in London to anyone who's interested when I'm in town... I don't play shmups anymore and I prefer Sanwa so someone else might as well make use of this Seimitsu rarity!

I'll be in town yes from Sep 28 to Oct 8. I'll take a couple pictures later this weekend and PM them to you and you can sign over your soul. This stick has been inspected three times by the TSA to detect chemical presence, and is guaranteed never to have been used as a makeshift bomb or for drug contraband.
