Man...this guy just rips into some of the stuff people have made. Some of his comments are funny though.

Thenasty · « **Reply #1 on:** January 04, 2006, 07:33:23 pm »

lol myself....I wanna see what machine he built.
Surprise TrashCade was not in there, that would have been hilarious.

His is http://www.disorder.org/crapmame/18.html

Not the worst.

Some of them are...wow...

ANd my x-arcade has 8 buttons. I like the 8 buttons per player

If you go to disorder.org you can see he's got some sort of profile called 'epthegeek', and there is a user on this board also with that name, with one post here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=37034.msg335195#msg335195

What a nice guy, asking for help from the people he put crap on. I'm surprised I haven't seen my arcade yet, but I'm only up to page 10.

somehow page 5.html is messed up, you need to go back to 4.html and just change the 4 to 5 on your bar. Same thing when you reach 14-15.html.

Quarters · « **Reply #7 on:** January 04, 2006, 08:25:13 pm »

I think the site is not able to deal with the traffic load. I got up to page 25 after many reloads.

I'm glad he included his own but-ugly cp.

The cab on page 19 is great IF the x-arcade cp is a temporary measure.

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /crapmame/ on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

On every page now.. O_o

D5A1AC · « **Reply #9 on:** January 04, 2006, 08:27:11 pm »

I'm also getting the forbidden error when I go to any page >27

RayB · « **Reply #10 on:** January 04, 2006, 08:38:19 pm »

Talk about weak hosting. Can't handle a tiny amount of traffic from BYOAC??! Or was this Slashdotted?

By the way, yeah the guy writes with alot of venom, but daaaaamnnn, many of those cabs deserve it! I bust a gut just from the photo of "Pac-Matt". The description kept me laughing even longer.

Thenasty · « **Reply #11 on:** January 04, 2006, 08:48:06 pm »

forbidden errors now....He must have a CRAPPY HOST

Necro · « **Reply #12 on:** January 04, 2006, 09:23:42 pm »

He was diggdotted

....

Keep reloading and you can get to the pages.

One or two of them are really...REALLY bad. Kind of scares me into not even trying if it might turn out like them

.

(the one with the teeny tiny monitor is great, as well as the 404 error page

)

Did you guys see this on page 23:

404 STUPID UGLY CRAP Not Found

This page is just a quick "---fudgesicle--- you" to all the dillholes that build their nice piece of crap, submit their link to BYOAC and then let the page die. Friggin' BYOAC seems to think they have like 700 projects in their examples database but it's more like 56, if you take out all the dead crap.

Please try the following:

* Don't submit a link as an example if you don't intend to keep that ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- up in the first place. A ---smurfing--- 404 does nobody any ---gosh-darn--- good.
* Maybe think twice about submitting a link at all. After all, chances are your MAME cabinet is crap that you shouldn't be proud of anyway.
* I shouldn't have to click my Back button 5 out of 6 times when trying to check out 'examples'.

HTTP 404 - File not found
Internet Information Services

Technical Information

* Technically, BYOAC is a little to blame for not cleaning up the examples links; but only partially.

quarterstringer · « **Reply #17 on:** January 04, 2006, 10:54:32 pm »

I recognize two of the projects and they belong to members of BYOAC. I hope they have a sense of humor.

JonnyBoy · « **Reply #18 on:** January 04, 2006, 10:56:13 pm »

It's a lot like The Best Page In The Universe. Same sort of egotistical, curseword filled humor.

But he did include his project which was pretty ugly as well.

I think that is the whole point. He's so pissed his own project came out crap he felt like taking the piss out of other people's projects. Pathetic.

brophog · « **Reply #20 on:** January 04, 2006, 11:33:54 pm »

The guy has one point though. Custom arcades with XArcades are pretty darn ugly. Wiring up the buttons, while time consuming, is one of the easiest things to do with a keyboard encoder.

Yeah, and I hope YOU'RE on there too.

Actually, he might have some issues with my Unreal Tournament artwork theme, but my controls are almost at a mandatory-only level.
I've got a modular control system, and only have ONE admin button.
(3 counting the 1-P/2-P start buttons when shifted).

missioncontrol · « **Reply #23 on:** January 05, 2006, 05:48:22 am »

that site is showing up as forbidden for me.........

my cabinet must be number 1 and that's why I can't gain access.......

Thenasty · « **Reply #24 on:** January 05, 2006, 08:19:11 am »

I did not get to see the whole thing. How many pages is it ? Wondering if my CAB is there

D5A1AC · « **Reply #25 on:** January 05, 2006, 08:21:06 am »

Lilwolf · « **Reply #26 on:** January 05, 2006, 09:47:52 am »

He does make good comments on most of them though....

but some of his examples I first saw 5+ years ago... IE some of the first ones made. Before people had things like arcadevga to easily use an arcade monitor (or heck trident video drivers wheren't working). When buying a 27" monitor could really really set you back a LOT.

But aside from being mean... he usually has good points. People should look at his site and go through the list (I got to 14 before it died here) when designing your own.

Of course... mine might be up there. But I go feature / looks all the time. So 3/4 of my control panels don't have vynal on them. My volume control is white when the rest of my box is black. I don't have sideart yet (havent' decided if I'm going to rebuild my old gauntlet cab... getting sick of the old wood and rounded corners that wheren't there originally... and I don't want to buy side art if I'm going to rebuild.

But even if mine could make his list... I still love it. So

I found myself reading it. It was quite funny for the first 5 minutes.

Then I realised the guy is hanging ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- on everything. The guy reminds me of Guru but without any useful skills.

Yeh, did that one earlier and it was fine, but I can't get to other pages. Hit the next/back button goes to forbidden, replaced the number at the end of the link
with random page numbers, same deal.

FYI, digg.com found the site yesterday, hammered the heck out of it (2 gigs - which is all I'm allowed per month) in a few hours. So, now it's cheesed until Febuary first. You'll have a whole new chance to hate me then. I'm sure the wait will be excruciating.

I got through about the first 10 or so LMAO before the mirror gave out. 40 Year-Old Virgin only got me about 4 laughs-out-loud, this had me for about 5.

There might be some taboo comedy out there, but it shouldn't matter whether it happens to be your race, or your politics, or your 100-hour MAME project, funny is FUNNY. Comedy is the great equalizer.
