It helps your image in that aspect that you guys sound totally dedicated to the game. Were I to pay but a passing glance; I would be under the impression you are all reserved, aloof, and very talented in your fields. Unease is definitely the first feeling any normal person would get. As for site aesthetics, I see a lack of sword. Kind of odd. There's also the pictures of real cars. While it does make you look serious, it's also lacking in showing what you guys are all about. You're not an actual street racing team, so would it not be more appropriate to post Screens/Images of gameplay? |

The Politix of Racing™ Group: Advanced Members Posts: 508 Member No.: 33,744 Joined: Aug 15th 2009 Location: The Other Syde™ | @Digibunny Nice feedback. Thought provoking and intelligent. Thanks. So why haven't you considered joining any team? Haven't found any that's worth it yet? I haven't found any worthy team when I started playing, and so I created my own team. Now it's worthy enough for my standard (of course, haha). So basically if you were looking for a team, what would be your standard? I'd be interested to know. |

Reading is magic! Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,601 Member No.: 30,700 Joined: Sep 24th 2008 Location: Philippines | I...dont think I'm worthy? Yeah, in a nutshell, that about sums it up. Team equates with a considerable amount of skill. While I dont suck, I'm certainly not competitive enough to count. There's nothing I can share that the group would not already have twofold of, with better quality. Frankly, I wouldnt be able to afford being a good team player. There's only so much a student on a limited budget can spend on something that does not yield a guaranteed tangible profit. Then there's the lack of invites and whatnot. I'm far too timid to apply outright. |

The Politix of Racing™ Group: Advanced Members Posts: 508 Member No.: 33,744 Joined: Aug 15th 2009 Location: The Other Syde™ | @ Ren Good points there. MOA has now become our sub base (with the new recruits mainly MOA players). We are moving at a desirable direction at this point. @ Digi It doesn't look that way to me. From the looks of it you have it the other way around. But I was also not skillful when I started the Espada. I just felt that it had to be done -- "the Sword shall rise" as the quiet voice whispered in my ears. The Blade rushed through my veins... I could wipe my cold sweat... Behold I have seen the vision... a vast army -- a vast army of "Swordsmen" (racers) rise. So was I the human instrument? Seriously to be quite honest, I feel that there is so much that we are lacking in terms of IDAS5 info. We need to gather and collect more data for analysis on IDAS5. This is mainly because we are based at RP and MOA -- two places where there are no IDAS5. And you might be up for it since you regularly play IDAS5. For sure you could teach us a thing or two. The only times that we get to play IDAS5 is when we visit G4 (which is a rarity), and the only two people in the team with IDAS5 cards are myself and another member. |

Papa II A voice was calling my name; I was nothing special just a mere peasant. I followed that voice thinking it'll not be the same. Then I found a light that showed me things pleasant; It was my heart who was racing through time I found my home, my passion- it was sublime. I did not think that I was good enough but when things go rough I need to be tough. It was in my blood, the adrenaline rush to race My goal is to become better, someday become an ace. I subdue myself to the sword; acquiring it would make me a lord. This is a path that I have chose to take this is the history that I would like to make. Long live Espada! This is my valor. In your name I shall give you honor. |

Reading is magic! Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,601 Member No.: 30,700 Joined: Sep 24th 2008 Location: Philippines | Did I just get invited? Twizted, I dont think I know any more than what the good people on the forum here know. Less in fact; seeing as I'm the one coming here for help on how to improve while everyone leapfrogs me in times. I feel that until I'm capable of inserting myself into the top 10 in the records, I'm just another oddball player out there. So if I was invited to join the team, as much as I'm honored, I'll have to respectfully decline for now. Still too much for me to grasp before I start playing with professionals. Aside from that, I'm a blundering idiot when it comes to WMMT. Not the best quality for someone on a fusion racing team, if you think about it. >.> ------------------------- @Wolf : Like what things? It's not entirely impossible that two people have similar trains of thought. |

These skills grow through time and you are welcome to join us even now. I, would like to admit that I am not an expert yet, I just love playing the game and these people love it too. It is like being on the same page. You become a part of Team Spada not because you are already a prodigy, but because you want to learn more about the game and learn while being with us. We provide you a team for you to grow. All of us are not that good, we are just in love with what we do and that reason alone keeps us together. So Digibunny, I personally would want you to join us. You will not lose anything here. We are here for you. We are a racing clan and most importantly we are Team Spada. Raise your sword and be one of us. Let us fight alongside each other. I will wait for your reply... |

Oh man. Such a LOVELY poem!! You know what? The more I think of what happened today, the more I realized that it was really good in a way. They say experience is the best teacher and that's true. Today you experienced 2 crucial things... one you experienced being scammed. And two you witnessed what's it like to dupe. Great work again on such a lovely prose. Killer!! @ Digi, well you could think about it. Besides you can always provide us with intel on the game. You are smart. I can really tell. I like that in a person. Fusion Racing... you let us worry about that one. You'd be more like the "IDAS5 correspondent." We need more intel on IDAS5 (racing data for analysis and study). Whatever your decision is okay with me. No worries. | ||

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 106 Member No.: 35,114 Joined: Mar 13th 2010 Location: a place where death and life intertwines | Good morning... I just found out last night that the 2 WMMT3 cabinets in Tom's World RP Manila is currently being fixed , which is a sad thing for me since that is where I usually play after class... I hope it'll be fixed on thursday afternoon so that I could practice again, if not then I'd practice my ID4 instead. I want to be stronger, not because I want to be someone great, but because I love to play this game and to see and meet people who share the same interest. I wish they'd get it fixed sooner... |

The Politix of Racing™ Group: Advanced Members Posts: 508 Member No.: 33,744 Joined: Aug 15th 2009 Location: The Other Syde™ | Good morning Ren! When and where are playing next? I'm thinking of giving you a DX card. I have a Subaru GRB full-tuned (825hp) which I made from scratch on DX but stopped using. You can have that one if you like. The card name also happens to be SPADA mind you. Or, I have two renamables -- an RX-8 and a Subaru GDB-C which are SS and S classes respectively. They're ready to transfer to DX but then you'd have to complete the additional 20 chapters to reach 825HP and get the Special Meter (if finished unshaded). And hey, sparring on IDAS4 is not such a bad idea. |

Ok I'll feature our team anthem by none other than Rennie in our site soon. You guys memorize that thing. Who wants to compose the music? Today I dropped by a new mall along Libertad. They have a little arcade there. No IDAS and no WMMT. BUT... they have Battle Gear 3. So I played it and broke the time attack records in some speed-courses using a Honda NSX-R. Super Carz to the MaX!! |

I'll give it a thought lahat ng course 820 DG para mapractice me... good luck aman sa Hakone hahaha I hope that someday I would be able to play like the rest, being good at everything, but I will be focusing on my favorite map which is Osaka... I want to practice more so that I could do stuff like that, I hope I could make it. Aral muna me haha |

Very good. 820 HP DG for all maps is the way to go. In DX I practice all maps at 825 HP. It's good training. This is the way to go. I mean this is the proper training procedure. Once you get used to 820 or 825 HP training, 780 HP in official battles will be a walk in the park. Easy work. Quickly beat your opponents and go home to watch your favourite tv show or something. | ||

You and 90LTS did great. Now Ren told me you wanted to present some graphics or that you had some sort of suggestion/s? Feel free to post 'em here so that everyone could see. Ahhh ang sarap, may Battle Gear 4 na sa RP!!! Yes. It arrived just yesterday. Nakaka-addik!! That Monte Carlo course was crazy!! I absolutely find it adoring!! |

I spent the entire day getting the King ghosts in every course, getting top time in C1 and Hakone and Fukuoka. Fukuoka is fun! In any case hope you guys drop by mega from time to time. My FC now has the "Fastest In the Metro Highway" alias. A question. Are the machines in RP "BG4 Tuned"? BG4 (normal) - just BG3 style up and down shifting BG4 TUNED - With Clutch and 6 speed manual transmission. If its BG4 Tuned, you may be seeing me visiting RP in the near future hehe. |
