I want to go to but I'm not sure how I'm gonna go by things as of yet. Can I get a guess or estimate on how much spent minimally going to a tournament of this kind?

If you buy your plane tickets soon, you may be able to land a round trip around the low 200's.
Then venue fee + singles is 45. If you do it before Friday then the price gets amped.


aaaand food and hotel.

So maybe like, a max of 4-500. If you're rich.
You can get away with spending 350.

I would like to, yes.
*see above* GDX says he wants to go with Alex Strife's tour.


Do you guys wanna join that big smash tour or a seperate one?

Um...I would think a separate one. Being with that huge of a group, imo, when touring would be rather...irritating.

thought i'd drop in. def hyped about apex over here. it's gonna be infectious no lie. GDX can feel it.

I'm gonna stick close to ed, so just include me in the plan with hotels. i'm not looking forward to 5 hour trip time, but it'll be worth it.




side note: how did i end up going to this when i can barely ever make it out to nll?

ey garret, i dunno how late we can reserve rooms by paying full price up front for the 270 or so...if we can still do it in december, I can reserve a room then

otherwise I can call them and put up my card info at anytime for the higher amount

either way, we need people to start confirming. imma keep trolling you guys about it until it happens :laugh:. It doesnt matter what room since we'll try to have 2 adjacent but still need numbers to cover costs

and also for those of you who havnt registered (like me) price increases by $5-10 at end of this month

bump, mainly as a reminder for 3 things:

1. still want 13 people to confirm they could cover the 42 at most for the entire weekend. I love you guys, but I dont want me or garret financially screwed over due to lack of housing funds (a smasher still owes me 180 dollars from 3 years ago :laugh: )

2. to remind anyone you know if they ARE going to apex, to also pass along their travel/housing info so plans can be better formulated. Time's going to pass so fast that there wont really be sufficient time to plan stuff while already in Jersey

3. Speaking of which, we should somewhat plan the NYC trip on thursday. By that , we mainly have to just plan where/when to meet that morning, and by what time we have to get on the public trains so we can make it back to our hotel that night. I'll look at train schedules later to see what amount of time we would be working with

ok. i just want to look out for garret and myself. You guys are good on money but not so good on actually doing it (example, someone may have the money to stay with florida OOS but they dont decide until last minute and stay with someone else entirely)

I really hope your not referring to me when you say "You guys" I'm always do 100% what I say I'm gonna do when it comes to OOS tourneys.
