This is where you can meet all of the players in this aera.

Not sure if there are very many around here though. But if your in this aera, it would be nice to meet some people.

Reppin' Gainesville!

I'm sure there's other people that don't know about/read/want to post in this forum.

RedXXX · 10-03-2006, 11:45 PM

Well look at that someone that found this happens to be in Gainesville. Well there is defanitely other players here, but they dont frequent this forum.

Meh, I'm actually from Tampa, but I'm going to school here.

Are there any places nearby to cure my IIDX/DDR itch besides UF's student union?

cpubasic13 · 10-05-2006, 08:50 PM

Gainsville? Wow.

That is... about 30-45 minutes away from here. :P

Heh. Wow. That's funny... for some reason.

Anyway, there is only one machine I know of, and that is the ITG machine located in the Oaks Mall. >_> Along with the PIU machine next to it.

...my friends mentioned the DDR machine, but I haven't actually been to it yet... >_>

RedXXX · 10-06-2006, 05:52 PM

The DDR machine is an ITG 2 conversion at the mall. The pads are alright, but it's about what you would expect from an old DDR pad.

Dont bother with the PIU at the Oaks Mall. Horrible pads not, not working even half the time, even the screen looks like shit and is almost impossible to see beacuse it is so dim. Pretty much there to take up empty wall space if it wasnt there.

And the extreme at the Reitz Union is pretty good but there is some washers under the screws which can annoy me sometimes. But good overall. They do have a paper posted that says "Our vendor has come to the terms that this game is quite old and there is no upgrades to this in the future, and we is considering upgrading to In the Groove 1, or 2. Please say weather you would like this or not" well something like that. But most people say either no, or like me, I wrote SN all over the poster

. But the closest IIDX is the HS in Clearwater, so I wont ever be playing the arcade version anytime soon.

We have a DMX 2nd mix J-Paradise also at the Reitz, but I feel like I am the only real player at that one. And a Dance Freaks at Cici's and thats it.

So thats all the Gainesville Beamani it has to offer.

Four hours if you speed round-trip? For Happy Sky?

Speaking from experience ....nope.

The way my car sucks gas, even if it was in Ocala, I would pass on it. Damn gas guzzling sports cars....

For the price of gas for a round trip + food + games (alot of them are expected) would run me enough to build my own asc, and since I have access to free wood and professional tools, I would be able to get sanwas and the excuse to murder my uskoc.

Which seems like the better deal?

Not like there is anything here in Ocala anyway. The only thing related to Bemani games is the PIU at Easy Street Family Fun Center, and even then, that is old and not Bemani. Not that I go there a lot anyway, so I wouldn't know for sure if it is still there.

But, supposedly I am able to go to the Oaks Mall this Sunday, so I'll be there all day if all goes planned. I'll of course be at the arcade. :P

RedXXX · 10-10-2006, 09:58 PM

Well ITG 2 there isint too bad at all so have fun.

cpubasic13 · 10-12-2006, 10:48 PM

Today (as in Friday) I am going to the Oaks Mall. If you could make it, it would be nice to meet you, I guess. I'll probably be using the bar for some of the harder songs on ITG2, and I may be switching from one pad to the other every 3 songs. Or I'm going to be doing doubles.

...yeah. >_> It would be cool to meet you, though. I haven't met anyone else that is as good as me or better, so it would be great to see someone of my skill level or higher...

fractien · 10-13-2006, 12:25 PM

I'd go, but I'm going back to Tampa this weekend, lol. If you all are UF students, you should enter the DDR tournament this coming Thursday. So far I haven't seen anyone with better timing than me. Stamina, yes, but timing, no.

If you aren't, I hear they're checking IDs, so I would advise against paying for it. :/

RedXXX · 10-14-2006, 10:07 AM

My stamina is horrible due to lack of playing. I used to be pretty good until I got tired of DDR and I just started back up recently. But I'm not a UF student so the tourney isint gonna happen.

fractien · 10-17-2006, 01:32 AM

EDIT: Open tournament. Whoever told me that gave me misinformation. They used to do tournaments that way, but not anymore.
