Does anyone know if there's a way I could instantly contact Tony (csik) about adding some songs? He doesn't seem to be active on the forums here.

Yeah, he isn't on the forums often... 

You might be able to catch him at ACME on Saturday or on Sunday. I see Tony on Saturday morning time to time. 

So... may I propose a request? I'd like someone to train me to get better at difficult songs with streams like Pendulum's pack. I really enjoy the songs and I think I should get better at those songs because then I can try other artists.

Hey Kevin, Abbye and I are going to be at ACME this Sunday, around 3ish so if you wanted to play with us you are more than welcome! 

We are practically there everyday so whenever you want to meet up just hit me up.

Yaaayz.
I try to make it every Sunday as much as I can.
Hopefully see you guys this following Sunday if I can afford it!

i still haven't been up here since before the ITG3+ custom stuff started to get put on the cabinet... i need to get the hell up there and try out some of that new stuff...

also i gotta get more funds... looking forward to christmas and all that...

Who's going this weekend (either Saturday or Sunday) at around noon?

I'd like to come train on some Pendulum and their streams :3

@ Kevin,

Hey Kevin, Abbye and I were there today. Thought you'd show up! 

We can always beast next time.

Also, the Player 1 and 2 side have been given some TLC! They are functioning pretty well, so if something malfunctions let me know.

Oh.. I couldn't make it today. Sorry about that. I'm hoping to come on Wednesday or something.

The PIU platform is missing quite a few screws and some of the remaining ones are loose...  I tripped over the protruding screws a few times last night. 

Would anyone happen to know what Gay4Gimmix packs are on this cabinet?

Also @Chris & Abbye, I'm hopefully gonna show up tomorrow so I can practice with you guys :3

Not sure if there are any because the name is offensive. The pack name might just be changed.

o.

Well, I only remember the Gay4Gimmix Again pack. Not sure if 3 is on there, although the song Pop Culture, which is supposedly from that pack, is on there.

Anyone know if the IWSS tournament pack has been added yet?

Well I was here today (for several hours on my own though :/ the one week I have some ITG cash)

and no I don't see any new packs at all unfortunately.

Pics unrelated:

My second FC at this ITG cabinet, albeit I stepped on ONE FUCKIN' MINE

Same deal with this :/

This is my second FC without hitting mines.

Does anyone see or have contact with Tony at all?
There's the tournament pack that you guys need and a few packs I'd like on the machine, but looks like the machine's packs haven't been changed at all..

Tournament pack went on the machine on Saturday, but I was in a rush and didn't have a chance to fully check that it was loading correctly. If its not showing up (in part or in full), I'll run down and take another look as soon as I have a chance.

As for other packs, I'll try to get to them as soon as I can, but I just moved and most of my time is going to unboxing everything at the moment.

Gay4Gimmix Again and 3 are on the machine, under Gimmix Again/3 (as noted, renamed due to the potential to offend people).

Toneeeehhhh hey! Long time no... talk? (Since I don't see you much anyway lol)

No worries about my pack requests, just making sure you get these folks the tournament pack for them to train, wouldn't want them going in blind!

Coming tomorrow possibly to check it out.

Hey, Abbye and I were at ACME today after a 2 week hiatus! Happy to say that the pads are fully functional with the exception of the up arrow on the Player 2 side. It has been janky for a while now and I'm not entirely sure how to fix it. I've tried at least 100 different ways to try and fix it but to no avail. The up arrow on the Player 2 side works but requires a little bit more pressure than average to trigger properly. 

Also, wanted to say thanks to Tony for putting the IWSS tournament pack on the machine so people from ACME can now finally qualify! 

oh

Anyone know how to remove stripped screws/bolts. I need to move some triangle brackets and the screws/bolts are stripped!

You might be able to pinch the outside with pliers depending on how tight the screw is

Stripped screws are not fun to deal with - I normally just move on to a different bracket, since you only need to take out two to get a panel off - but if enough screws are stripped around one panel that you can even do that, I think pliers are your best bet. inching the outside might do it, alternately, needle-nose pliers should fit inside the hex on the hex screws - grabbing a hex corner plus the outside of the screw might get you a better grip on the screw.

Be sure to clean out the grooves on the screw head. Make sure no dirt is in there, not even a little bit.

If you can't get it to work with the philip's, try a flat head. Generally speaking, I get a lot more success from flatheads than philip's, so give that a shot.

if you're going to replace them, you can also dremel out a cut on the surface for a flat-head screwdriver, or drill into the screw with a drill bit. These are, of course, destructive methods, but if the current screws are stripped it's probably worthwhile to just get new ones.
