Bass pedal is definitely misfiring (as in double, triple, quad fires).

e-Amuse is down from 3-5pm because that's when they do it in Japan (something like 1-3am for them? or 5-7?)

When in the evening, you silly alcoholic? I was there till like 10:30. Didn't see you nowheres. O_o

And yea, the bass pedal was acting up last night. Actually made this poor guy i saw fail by not activating ANY taps. Once I got on, I just started tapping it lightly but consistently and it eventually started working again, but still. I told the attendant behind the prize counter, and he said that they actually don't want them doing anything internally with these machines. Typical Fuknami.

The attendant is lying or probably means the regular workers/techs can't touch the machine.

IIDX was messing up, and Ryan was the only one that was fixing it. He also said he looked at the machine, and it was working in the I/O test... I told him it was inconsistent, sometimes it would work fine, more often than not though, it would either not work or go off like nuts.

Totally gives no reason to play Battle mode.

They should check for a loose wire.

If no loose wire, just switch out the microswitch. My god, this is not rocket science. There is no reason for this to still be messed up after 2 weeks.

Btw, how long is this test going on? I talked to the attendent this afternoon and he said another 2 weeks at least, but I'm not gonna take his word for it. I'll wait for Ryan to let us know.

Also, it would appear that V4 is unlocking alot of songs now. Like, one a day. I came in today, and I instantly had 3 more songs since Sat.

Hey does anyone know when it will be gone???

Could someone list some nearby hotels?

I have to come in to Chicago for a funeral, and I'd like to check the place out.

I think this might be the last week it's here because when I asked one of the Konami reps how long it was going to be there on the first day he said about three weeks

***June.H*** · 10-18-2007, 01:08 AM

There's a Red Roof Inn nearby.

Use Yahoo Maps and throw in the address to the place. There should be an option for hotels and stuff nearby. I'm sure there's also a Super 8 motel or a Motel 6, it's a pretty busy area.

GitaDARA: It'll probably be gone by either end of this week or next week.

And yesterday, the bass pedal was STILL acting up. ARGH. It seriously makes battle mode COMPLETELY useless, thus unlocking stuff = impossible.

**gtc** · 10-19-2007, 01:45 AM

I got somebody to take the pedal apart and yeah it's just a damn switch issue but they're "not allowed to change any hardware."

dreamdatedoug · 10-19-2007, 02:41 PM

From what I understand, it is now fixed. As such, I will be there tonight around 9:30 if anyone wants to hang out there. I plan to finish the battle map tonight as well.... I'm pretty close I think...

m-force · 10-19-2007, 07:04 PM

I'm hoping it's going to be there tomorrow night. Bring some couple of friends to tag along with me.

Dara-G. · 10-21-2007, 09:28 PM

Well I went the 17th around 12 and was like totally empty except with stupid kids that probably got off early that day...(kids from my town get off early on weds) well any way it was very nice and now i can die almost happy... until i can find a IIDX machine...

If anyone knows where one is could you tell me.

***June.H*** · 10-22-2007, 12:03 AM

I went at 5:30, only a couple people there, some REALLY annoying mexicans though...

What pissed me off though is that the bass drum is starting to go out AGAIN. It wasn't AS bad, but it was definitely on and off. I was getting blatant misses on Sweet Illusion, and it SUCKED (almost lost my S)...yet when I did Giant Slug and that V4 Sayonara (weird) song on EXT, I SS'ed them both. It's strange.

Played like crap otherwise today whenever I attempted any other long versions...failed Hoshi No Mogera and Riff Riff Orbit on GF and Classic Party Revival on DM...scored like garbage on some songs, but did really freaking well on others...I dunno what's wrong with me. I think my brain's burning out from too much DM.

We've been playing alot. That shit happens. I think I'm with the test from now on. It was fun while it was here, but I think I'm done with my trips to Naperville until the official release of all this shit.
