    Have picked up a few items that people have seemingly left at casuals over the last while, posted in the respective casuals threads but I think it's a good idea to have a dedicated thread for it.

    I don't want to name the two things I have specifically, if someone wants to reply with what they've lost or PM me I'll return them asap.

    Have seem to have mislaid my 360 copy of Super recently as well if anyone has that.

    I lost a small black and silver camera at an Inferno (or it might have been the 2v2) in the XGC a good while back, don't suppose anyone's had it since then?

    There was this one time I forgot an umbrella...

    Weren't Doom and Stevo using your copy of Super as I was leaving on Wednesday this week? Wanna search that Doom fella, looks well dodgy if you ask me :P

    Random tip for people leaving stuff around at tournaments and casuals: Stickers!
    Even awful/cheap looking stickers, as long as they're unique.

    Over the natural course of the day, through no devious intentions by anyone, stuff gets moved around. A random page of stickers will help if you don't have a custom stick/game boxes.

    I have stickers on my TE, and on the box of my games of Super, Marvel and Blazblue. I leave the box in front of the TV, so I know it's my disc in that machine.

    So if I forget something, someone can be like "I found a game box with a Penguin sticker on the front", I'll know that's mine.

    Also I know that if I find a TE with a Bonsly and various other Pokemon, that that belongs to Sairus.

    I genuinely don't think anyone in this scene will nick anything, but so much of our equipment is so generic and interchangable that things can get mixed up.

    'tis how the doomstick got it's name. Written on the front of it with a sticker from a labelgun. THE DOOMSTICK.

    Really good advice actually, never thought of it before. My TE now has a plain blue sticker that states "24 CCR classics including, Bad Moon Rising, Up Around the Bend Proud Mary, Green River, Down On The Corner" now people will be aware of my appreciation of CCR as well as knowing it's my stick.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    My stick has a sticker that says STICK stuck on it.

    Maybe, I'm not sure... my copy of Super doesn't get used much as the game crashes when you pick Gief or Fuerte if it's not installed on the console.

    Any chance either of ye picked it up?

    I haven't got it anyway, just checked. I only brought ps3 copies with me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_


    Just decided to bring this up >.<

    I just opened my copy of Marvel and there's no disc in it so I assume I left it at casuals.

    Anyone have a spare MvC3 disc lying around?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    Yeah, Can't find my BB disc so If one is around its probably mine.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,707 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    Seem to have lost a Sony handsfree kit.
    Looks similar to this:

    Hey guys I was wondering if anybody accidentally picked up my joypad at evo yesterday its a ps3 dualshock and i coloured in the letters on the joypad to make it a bit more distinct. thanks for your cooperation in the matter:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,699 ✭✭✭Da Bounca


    Some of the stuff left around could be incorporated into the XGC stock as one of their own, maybe you should ask them. It would also make things easier for similar issues in the future.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,707 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    Tourney wasn't held in XGC.

    @TVSAdamWest: there was a Sony SixAxis left behind, so yeah, mix-up :/


    Also, it seems I either dropped, or someone nicked, my mini folding knife :(

    heh i was playing fifa against my brother and he was kicking my ass (don't play soccer or soccer games so i'm not too clear on the rules) then he said 'come on lets put in sf4 and ill kick your ass in that too' 10 minutes, 10 fights and 10 losses later he says 'that's just a bad game...' :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,707 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    Update, I found my mini folding knife at least.

    It was buried deep in one of the pockets. :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 543 ✭✭✭WasterEx


    Forgot to mention, I found someones wallet on Saturday. I gave it to the girls who were doing the raffle tickets etc.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Nutrient

    I have this man, will give it back to you next time I see you.

    I've just found a sixaxis (Not a dualshock 3) controller in my bag.

    I assume someone put it in my bag at the Evo qualifier because I didn't bring any PS3 stuff with me so would not have picked it up myself.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Xinkai


    Don't suppose anybody picked up a greenish brown jacket with a dunlop logo on the right hand chest pocket after @RCADEcon? Can't find it anywhere, and staff said no dice :(

    The wire is really tangled up that's all I've got to be distinct:[
