mango sentinel posted:You can decline penalties in football because keeping the play is potentially more advantageous than the penalty, not to let a coach feel magnanimous by embracing the spirit of competition. I guess it's arguable if Gamerbee taking the penalty and gaining a free round would have been more advantageous than declining it and restarting that entire set from scratch (if that were an option).

The story I heard was that they agreed on it during the tournament, but God knows if that's true anyway. And yeah, not to defend pot splitting, but it'd have been scumbaggerier to take it and then go back on it.

Razer sells gaming laptops that are really overpriced, but not towers, I don't think. You're probably thinking of Alienware.

I was gonna make a post about having a razer mouse and it's not literally satan or anything when it occurred to me that 90% of us that play stick play a mad catz stick. Sure they've cleared their name recently but for about 20 years mad catz was that lovely off brand controller that grandma got you for $10 at blockbuster video around Xmas that you always force your little brother to use.

Everyone I know that has ever touched a Deathadder has had it fail withing 18 months (and frequently sooner) of owning it. Maybe the more recent mice aren't as garbage? I've disliked Razer since long before they were in the stick market.

I'm using the same g5 I bought in 2007 if you want to talk about product durability. Maybe it was just the deathadder that was poo poo then? Everyone I know that has had a razer mouse fail has been one of those.

I've had 2 diamondbacks, a deathadder, and a Lachesis in addition to the Naga. Like I said, none of them ever went bad on me. Anyway, I'm sure Logitech would make a fabulous stick too. My point is we need more manufacturers involved in the FGC, and I see no purpose in shaming people who want to buy a Razer stick. Especially when MadCatz seems poised to start dropping sponsorships.

It was more of a right place right time thing, like "holy crap a peripheral that even we can't screw up. We're in boys!"

Outside of Hori, no company that sells sticks actually makes any parts outside the casing and PCBs, they just use Sanwa buttons/sticks. And MadCatz PCBs are actually pretty poo poo overall, where the variance between input lag between different sticks varying greatly.
