I ignored everything but the news about the drummania board-here's hoping!
Though I plan to go play DM V6 in Vancouver this weekend anyhow, but....can't do that all the time!

One time, Tony and I actually managed to hit a security guard in the head with an errant Air Hockey puck. Clearly, we just need to keep doing this - then they'll be happy with us for sitting on the table instead of using it. Problem solved!
Clearly! XD

Let's make Chis really happy! Yes, the DM board is working and is test burning in the shop right now. It should return to Acme this coming Monday. Also, looks like the new Terminator Salvation will be running and finally there too.

Alright, thanks Bill! Got the next couple of weeks relatively free so I will pay the refurbished DM quite a few visits!

As a general rule, what times is the ITG machine the least crowded? Around opening time during the weekdays maybe?
Or is there almost always someone playing?

weekdays afternoon to evenings there is usually no one. Trust me, these are the times I go at. That or Saturday and Sunday when they open. Most people show up at night on the weekends or weekdays.

Regarding the DM - pads seemed OK but bass pedal is very loud - might have a loose hinge that needs tightening or perhaps just some WD40...
More importantly, I think the machine needs to be moved from where it is placed right now. It is sitting right next to that punching-bag machine and I'm sure others are going to find this intolerable if they play this on a busy night. The NFS racing game to the right is pretty loud and can drown out the sound as well, and the pinball machines to the left make some pretty distracting noises at random intervals even when they aren't being played. The volume on the machine seemed sorta low, but this might have been more due to the noise from the stuff mentioned above...

Yeah to echo above comment, I called this in yesterday.
The bass pedal stopped responding after my 2nd set. Failing on really easy songs because of it. AutoBass is no fun =/

Thanks for calling it in! I see on the service log that it was taken care of last night.
Today, I oiled the pedal as well. Yes, those Need For Speed games were way too loud. Turned down now. Also, I thought the DM was set on the quiet side, so it is livened up with maybe too much volume?
Thanks for the reports. Appreciate the input as always.

It's pretty gun in my opinion. I like how to reload you have to hit the clip on the gun itself. Puts a nice twist on the rail shooter genre.
Also would just like to report that DMV3 is in good working condition. I'll bring my own sticks next time though. Those wires attached to the ones on the machine hurt when they catch onto your skin. haha

Bill, I played the DMV3 again yesterday evening. Was working great for me.
One note: Did you notice the monitor is getting a bit discolored in the lower right of the screen? Not an issue that affects gameplay/enjoyment however.
I do like the new slightly louder volume, I think it is perfect.
I don't like being next to the punching bag. There are some people who really wail on that thing and it's more distracting than being next to probably any other game in the 'cade when a group is using it. But if that's the only setup you could get working I'll happily deal with it.

Cool, Glad to hear something good about terminator, and also glad the volume is perfect on the DM.
That punching bag.........so much fun trying to find a home for it. It bothers anyone playing a machine that it's near. And I have to admit, I also find those annoying. Whenever I am concentrating and working os something, someone hits one of those and makes me jump, haha. Funny how they have become the most popular thing in every arcade we run. Lately, we have been hitting the bar locations pretty heavily with them too. Just interesting sometimes to see what goes in the marketplace out there.

Wherever you have men and boys trying to prove themselves, this game will find incredible popularity. Same goes for the gun/deer hunting games and racing games. You've gotta be manly! Unlike those freaks playing that dancing game...

By the way, Bill, I wanted to thank you for making DM V3 $.75 for 4 songs (and bonus tracks count as 3 songs) on standard play. Was it like that before? I don't recall...
Anyhow, I do appreciate the excellent value. Have stopped by for V3ing 4 days out of the past 7.

I was at Acme this evening (Thursday). In The Groove 2 and Pop 'n Music were both missing. Not sure if they're on loan to Sakura Con, or if they're off getting repaired. Drum Mania seemed fine.

As of Sakuracon, we've added a couple of new songpacks to the machine. A couple of the new songs (Spinnin' Around, and I believe Caramelldansen - chime in with more, Tony and Keby) count as two stages, so be aware of that when you select them.
Also, I really need to start playing DM again.

Hey thanks for getting the new song packs on there, there's definitely some good ones. I went and played last night and the volume was pretty low so I'm hoping we can get that fixed.
Also something weird with the long song thing. I tried playing a song that was 299 seconds, which said it counted as 2 stages, but it said the limit was 240 and wasn't playable. However I then tried a 275 second song and it worked fine as 2 stages. Anyone know what's up?
And if the long songs are now working can we change the limits to, say, 0-4min for normal, 4-6min for long songs, 6+ for marathon? I don't think any grumpy managers at Acme will object if we've got the multiple stages working. And considering the normal limit a week ago was 4.5min I think the aforementioned ranges are very reasonable. It would be greatly appreciated
