Just want to remind everyone my extra PS3 Madcatz TE Fightstick Round 2 is still for sale for $99. It is brand new, still packaged in its box and of course never used. This stick normally costs $150 new. Get this stick dual modded and you're all set if you want to get into FGs more.

You don't really need a stick to play, but it feels good to use. Also, playing on pad is problematic when having to play on different consoles. My friend who swears by the xbox360 controller had to spend $200 to get a 360 controller's innards replaced with a PS3 controller board, and even that doesn't feel the same as the 360 pad he normally uses for the 360 (can't dual mod a pad, but in an arcade stick like the Madcatz TE there's plenty of room for another board). Even if you don't dual mod, borrowing sticks or having two sticks is much easier than what pad players have to put up with.

So yeah, kind of random time to post this, but I need money :(. This is a good deal though if you want to buy a quality stick and don't care too much and don't mind the SFIV art (you can still change it if you want). Buying low-quality sticks is a waste of money.

I did, but I have to reinstall steam. Do you guys know whether the beta is available for Mac OS or do I have to use my Windows 7 VM?

It was going well, however once college started, I joined a club to start practicing a chinese martial art. The one I picked, wushu, is more of a performance one than a practical one, and is similar to gymnastics. So, while I still do the workouts listed on stronglifts occasionally, I more emphasize the kinds of conditioning my instructors showed me and becoming flexible (I'll have the splits down eventually).

And as far as melee is concerned; the past few months, the ways I've tried to improve and my mentality has been totally off of what it should have been. For the past month specifically, I felt like I stagnated, but very recently I realized that is not true at all. I have a lot I could improve on, and have gone back to humbling myself, removing my bad habits and fine tuning my basics.

Until you tells me otherwise, I'm just going to assume you were taken away by the mexican drug cartel for an outstanding debt, and spent the weekend marching your *** across the border, and back to Irvine.

Stronglifts 5x5 right? I'm on week 8 or something. Everybody should be do this workout routine if you can afford a gym membership or if your school has a power rack. Google the routine, you do three exercises every other day and you start with just the bar no matter how much you can lift so you don't have to feel embarrassed since it's part of the program to start small and go up in a linear progression as long as you can while you practice your form.
