that awkward moment when (crapmame)

that awkward moment when......

a new member of the Defender group posts a picture of a cabinet with no words, and everyone assumes it's a crapmame post.


It had already been spotted 3 days earlier on eBay and posted as a crapmame post then,

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

It's not great, but it's certainly not CrapMAME worthy.

Totally agree.  I wouldn't mind that in my place.

A bit 'blocky' looking, but that's certainly no crapmame.

yeah, it's not in crapmame territory, but you can imagine what a KLOV type crowd made of it.

I wouldn't slag someones build, but also there is literally nothing I like about it, so I couldn't make any positive comment either.
