Illusionz
I went to Illusionz tonight. I'm not sure why. I was in a kind of lousy mood after we lost the final OCL brawl match. I mean, I expected us to lose in some ways, but I was disappointed that I never got to actually fight Whinefire. (The matches we were both in, Cioj was told to take me out.) He said something rude about Buri after the match, and I challenged him rated; he rejected it. I challenged him unrated, and he rejected it. What a bastard. He also whined about it in the forums, despite them winning. So, I think I will be calling him Whinefire from now on.
Anyway, I went to IZ. It was a ghost town. I got there around 8 and got a two-hour timecard because I figured I'd have no trouble bouncing from machine to machine. I didn't. I played a ton of DDR 4th mix -- and it actually died halfway through one game and I had to get an attendant to fix it. I played a ton of PNM of course, because that's my favorite bemani game, and it was also in the best working condition. I played some PPP, and man, my arms ache. I am so out of shape. I played one game of DM, but it was painful.
Drummania: Cymbal totally doesn't work. Most other pads are really unresponsive too, the red and green are't bad, the pedal sucks, and the drumsticks they have there are split.
PPP: the left-most sensor can't actually hold notes.
DDR 4th: all sensors were just bad
DDR Ex by the rockclimbing: 2P side had sensor issues, 1P didn't seem too bad
PNM: fine working condition, but the white button is sticky -- as in, someone spilled something on it, maybe? but the key functions fine.
They've also gotten rid of the whole line of machines along the same wall as PPP... like all the Capcom vs. SNK and such games,
Ah well. Anyway, it was funny, since back in the day, I used to be at IZ every Wednesday night with Farren and people. And that was neat. And now it's like... it was a ghost town. And even if anyone else had been there I probably wouldn't have felt like talking anyway. I did see Hyunsuk and his wife on ITG, but I don't really know them.
Bleh.
