INDIANA NEEDS AN ITG TOURNEY

UnLiMiTeDmAxX · Post by **UnLiMiTeDmAxX** » Sun Jul 29, 2007 9:08 am

Ok guys, we have too many dedicabs to not have had any ITG tournaments. There's one in Fort Wayne, Carmel, Fishers, Anderson, Indianapolis, and New Albany. Those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head without checking DDRfreak. If there's more in Indiana, say so. Like I've said before, Indiana is sad when it comes to tournaments. Something always goes wrong at Gameworks and DDR-a-thon usually happens once a year. Besides, neither one of these events has an ITG dedicab. We have so many players in Indiana that I KNOW would attend, whether to spectate or participate, not to mention out of towners. Our tournaments could have great turn outs and I know it. So please, anyone interested, let's get started on this. On another note, Fort Wayne and New Albany are probably out of the question. Fort Wayne needs to fix a sensor in an arrow and isn't New Albany kind of distant for everyone?

Players I hope would show up
-Myself (STM!)
-Tony (th34nt0ni0)
-Ron (RON!)
-Brian (Flea)...in question
-Dan (danc1005)...in question
-Chris Platzer...in question
-Craig (Cbav)
-David (Taqa)
-Mike (Allusivegold)...and friends
-Willis
-Casey (CaseyDDR)
-Mike
-Blackcat
-Anderson folks
-Jeff^2 Revolution
-More Indy ppl

....not to mention some out of town ppl.

If I'm forgetting people, then I'd like you to post too. Now, if some of you guys seriously want an ITG tournament, please post. I'll try my best, with some support to get it going. I just want one in our own state instead of always being the out of towner.

Dude I'm game for anything in Indiana. When we went to GOM7, it was so cool to see how close all of the Ohio people were. It would be nice to have an Indiana tourney and have so many indiana people together hanging out, and greeting the out of towners.

I think I might be able to talk to the guys in Anderson to get one started. Mike, the guy from Anderson, is wanting to get one started. I might be heading up there soon to play anyway so I'll see if I can give him a shoutout to get the tourney process get started. But definitely - if anyone has any way they could get the owners of these Dedicabs to start up tournaments it'd be great.

I'm really thinking Pinheads would be a great location for a tourney. Anyone go there regularly?

Haha, I guess Coty and I would be part of the 'and friends' thing?

Oh well.

I'd totally be wanting to go to any kind of tournament on a dedicab even though I doubt that I'd win or even come close to winning.

How far would it be though?

I don't know if I'd even be able to go if it was like as far as bloomington just because lack of a car. Neither Coty nor I's father will let us drive with our own car down there because neither of them trust either's car to not break down.

But is there a place with an ITG2 Dedi and any kind of DDR cabinet? I think that'd be pretty sweet too.

only 2 places I know of are Putt Putt in fort wayne and Rascals in Indy. Fort Wayne is a negative cuz the pads arent great and I cant speak for Rascals since I've never played on their DDR machine.

I'm like Vertex now. Freaking A. I really like that.

Anyways, I'd be game not only to have a tourney at Rascal's, but to help put it on. Cbav and I talked for the longest time about hosting one at That Fun Place...before they removed the ITG 2 Dedicab there.

OMG no. Pinheads is terrible. The workers couldn't care less about anything, and the pads suck. Hands are out of the question. (Well for me, I weigh 95ish)

I agree. haha. I've played on those pads before. They seemed acceptable.
And the workers? WHO CARES.

I was planning to go check it out monday around 6:30

Last time I was there the volume was down really low but I asked a worker about it and he was like oh, sorry... and turned it up a lot and gave me a free game

So potential locations are:

laserflash in carmel
pinheads in fishers
rascal's on the east side of indy
anderson

last time i went to laserflash (like a year ago) the pads were excellent, very very responsive
only been to pinheads once, was not that good of an experience. too close to lanes when i went there and not loud enough. pads not nearly as responsive as laserflash
rascals was good when i went there, only played the right side so i dont know how responsive the left is. didnt see too many pad misses or timing errors on other players, i havent played in too long so i cant judge myself.

this is just what i have observed and may very well be different from what it actually is.

Personally, I think the pads in Laserflash, Rascals, and Anderson are about the same. I do like Rascals though because there is actual room to play and move the pads back from the screen. Never been to pinheads, but apparently, it sucks. Anyways, I, as apparently for most people, am game for any one of those three.

hellz yea we should have tourneys.

then more tourneys so we can add numbers to the end of the tourney name to make it sound cool.

anderson sounds like it would be good, if they did something about the 1p left arrow...

There is something wrong with the left arrow? I never noticed. lols I might be going up there tomorrow so I can check it out and make sure. But the last time I was up there it seemed to work fine for me.
