Thanks mulletgeezer, I should be at the meet now

I can probably provide a small TV again if somebody can do the honours with the Supergun.

^My Supergun is still in a blown-up state. I'll see if I can drag myself up to see Fire-Bug for a fix.
Would be good if a back-up Gun can be brought down, just in case I continue to have Gun problems

I'll bring my Arcade Heaven SG if needed - it's basic, and I have just the one stick for it, but it does the job, and I leave near enough for it not to be a hassle...

That would be a good idea.

Cool, I'll bring it.

And yes - I 'live' nearby, not 'leave'!

As of now I've got the bravado to assume we're definately going for 19th and 20th

Skykid · Post by **Skykid** » Wed Jun 18, 2008 6:05 pm

You guys still want a Guwange at the meet then?

I'll definitely be there for 19th and 20th!

mulletgeezer · Post by **mulletgeezer** » Wed Jun 18, 2008 8:19 pm

We still want you to bring Guwange. Also we expect you to 1cc it on the day with a score of no less than 14 million

...also didn't you promise an amazing new score on Progear a while ago? We need to see results

DEL · Post by **DEL** » Fri Jul 11, 2008 12:43 pm

Right - I'll bring my SG and stick for sure. it needs a small solder job this weekend, but just a loose wire on the Jamma loom, so it should be a sinch. If there's a problem I'll let everybody know tomorrow so we can sort another.

TV though - that's a bit more tricky! Again, if we had a car, I'd offer, but it sounds unlikely...

Rupert H?

I'm going to have to try and repeat my recent Progear 1CC at the eet aren't I? That would be awesome to do...

EDIT: I'll stop going on about that 1CC soon I promice. I'm still in the first 24hrs though! My workmates are pretending they care, but not doing a great job!

I'll definitely be able to make it down with a 14" TATE-happy TV between the hours of 10am-7pm on both days. We're going to run into the same problem as the February meet however, whereby if anybody wants to go to Trocadero, I can't leave the TV at Casino.

Spadgy and I can handle the tech side, so if mulletgeezer can bring Futari along that would be just about perfect

No problem, you CAN leave that 14" TV at Casino. I can have it put in the cash box or locked in the back room upstairs. Same goes for spadgy's Supergun.

Excellent - I did a little soldering yesterday, just on a loose connection on the external end of the Jamma connector loom, and the gun works fine, at least with Ibara, Raiden, and a CPS2 mobo. I'll bring the stick too of course.

EDIT: Anybody missing from this thread who we should nudge? I'll PM Kaede and Tigershark, as they're London based and as yet haven't appeared on this thread...

Kaede · Post by **Kaede** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 2:51 pm

Hey guys, I'm afraid I can't make this meet as I have plans for this weekend.

Had it been next weekend when the missus is due to be away...

Hope the meet goes well, gutted to be missing Mushi Futari as (from what I've played of it) it is the absolute mutts nuts.

mulletgeezer · Post by **mulletgeezer** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 3:01 pm

I'll be there, just for the Saturday, and I'll definitely be bringing Mushi Futari. I have another MF kit and an Espgaluda 2 kit up for sale at the moment so if anyone wants to buy either of those at the meet for a nice price send me a PM.

Dah - just recently saw your new sale thread, but I just spanged a load of cash on a bike, so need to hold off!

DEL · Post by **DEL** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 9:44 pm

I might be in the market for an MF Mulletgeezer, we'll talk.

Thought you'd got away eh?! Well you haven't. You've just made yourself available for the Battle of Destiny with LUNardei and the NeoEmpire Crew on that weekend.

Ah promises promises.

Not going to happen unfortunately, I haven't dedicated enough time to progear. I did just 1cc Mushihimesama though, which nearly made me cry with joy.

haha excellent! OK I will deffo pop down to this then!

Tenner on the door mind. I'll be there too

Post by **spadgy** » Tue Jul 15, 2008 10:58 am

I think the entire UK arcade scene is going. I had wangled a press pass, but then Leo from Capcom inspired me that it's only fair to put bit of cash into an expensive event supporting an industry we all fear the demise of, so I'll be paying a tenner.

If the event's as good as I expect, it will be well worth it, for some more time playing SF IV if nothing else...

DEL · Post by **DEL** » Tue Jul 15, 2008 12:27 pm

Its costing the NeoEmpire Crew a lot to host. They won't be making any money on it, so the tenner is justified. It should cover entry for both days of the event.

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Tue Jul 15, 2008 12:36 pm

BoD looks to be an awesome event, just sad i can't make it

(i think £10 is worth it just to have a pop at justin wong

)

yeah im gonna frown at everyone we give a press pass to.

I hope to make it this time to the shmup meet, I could bring a board or two but probably not worth the effort

Your allowed I reckon mate - your actually covering it as press, whihc will be great for future events. I think that's fair anyway - I was just blagging a press pass, which would have been a bit cheeky to say the least!

CHI · Post by **CHI** » Tue Jul 15, 2008 11:46 pm

as time is coming close, i would like to know what time are you (fellow members) expecting to get there?
i will be coming back to London from Wales on the 19th.
its gonna take me a good 4 hours so... i just dont wonna miss anything...

Masamune · Post by **Masamune** » Wed Jul 16, 2008 5:33 am

i just hope the press doesnt read "Capcom present SF4 at gaming event" and then theres lots of information about the game and how good it looks.

Nah - most of the press have had their mitts on it for a while now. They have it running through PCs and HRAP2's in Hammersmith at Capcom's HQ. I expect the reaction of dedicated fighter players to SFIV will get some coverage though.

Back on topic - Times? What did we do last time?

I'll dig out the old thread...

EDIT: So - it seems we started between 11am and midday last time, though I am a bit confused by the past meets thread times. Anyway - I'm aiming for around then...
