[EVENT OVER] Santa Barbara Gamefest! (Saturday, April 17th)

[DanteFox]

wow huy. don't be lazy. only ask him for a ride if some emergency happens and you can't take the bus. or if you're bringing a setup. otherwise it's just laziness. If you live on campus, it's at most a five minute walk to the bus stop, take the bus directly to city college, then at most another five minutes to the venue.

 

[CableCho57]

Haha huy don't you live in the FT dorms? I'm telling you the 15x goes straight from the front of the ft dorms to the front of sbcc in like 20 minutes. You hardly even need to walk. But whatever works for you lol

 

[GosuSheep]

In reality, the 15x would be faster than me. I live in Santa Ynez, so I would prefer to take the 154 to Santa Barbara. This means that I would drive from State street, to Goleta, back to SBCC. If you do indeed live near the 15x, take that one. It would be more convenient for both of us. On the other hand, if you do NEED a ride (set-up, broken leg, immense laziness), I can provide-.-

I'm going to need practice for the event. Maybe we can all collaborate on gamefest practice fest? Sometime in the weekends to come?

I bought a frikkin awesome 27" CRT Sony Trinitron TV in AWESOME conditions for $20 on craigslist. Whoo!!! It's coming to gamefest.

 

[CableCho57]

Awesome sheep. Anybody want to play today?

 

[GosuSheep]

I can't play this weekend. Have much homework.

 

[metalreflectslime]

So if I live in San Rafael dorms this year then I should go to North Hall and take 15X there?

 

[DanteFox]

yes.

______________

 

[metalreflectslime]

yes.

______________

So like is somone else planning on taking the 15X bus from campus to this tournament besides me?

 

[GosuSheep]

Alright guys, can you please tell me if you are for sure going to compete in melee and/or brawl? Please also tell me if it is possible but not for sure that you will compete! I'll update the original post.

Can you guys tell all your buddies to post here? I'll do the same.

Does anyone have recording equipment or can link me to cheap equipment?-.-

 

[metalreflectslime]

Well Gino doesn't post but I would assume Gino is coming.

 

[GosuSheep]

Is he melee/brawl/both? Who is he again? What does he main?

 

[metalreflectslime]

He was at the tournament with you but only for Melee Singles and he will be only in Melee. He mains Falco.

 

[GosuSheep]

Hmm. I only remember Bryant and David with their falcos

 

[metalreflectslime]

Well he was the Asian one besides Caleb and I.

 

[GosuSheep]

Well. Still don't remember-.-

Get those other guys to post here!

 

[CableCho57]

Haha the only asians ones lol. Yeah a lot of ppl went to the recent tournamnet and the one last year who don't go on smashboards

edit: The other gosu is throwing his tournament the same day so there goes a lot of the entrants..

 

[metalreflectslime]

Two Gosus, two tournaments.

 

[GosuSheep]

Tell him to be more gosu and come to gamefest. Otherwise, his gosu points will plummet.

 

[metalreflectslime]

So is anyone from SB going to the tournament held my UnknownPresence?

 

[GosuSheep]

Well, crew battles are cool, but gamefests are cooler. I hope they have lots and good players, though.

Huy, is it possible for you to notify all the people you know from the last tourny at UCSB?

 

[metalreflectslime]

Huy, is it possible for you to notify all the people you know from the last tourny at UCSB?

Yes, I can do that actually. I need to notify Andrej, Jeff, Gino, Cape, Joe, Ryan, and I guess Dante could notify Josh.

 

[Gosu_Engineer]

The other gosu is throwing his tournament the same day so there goes a lot of the entrants..

I'm the 'other' gosu now? and no I doubt we would take that many or any entrants from yours. if last year was any indication all the people there were local and only like 3 people from SB/SLO combined went to a different tourney

Two Gosus, two tournaments.

Yeah. we need more gosus in the world. Dante, change your name to DanteGosu

So is anyone from SB going to the tournament held my UnknownPresence?

again I doubt it. The only one that would be able to make the trip would be josh and I doubt he'd make the journey out of laziness or having something else to do

Tell him to be more gosu and come to gamefest. Otherwise, his gosu points will plummet.

Well I would, except there are more reasons not to at this point and quite it's unfortunate for my gosu points. Had circumstances been different both me and Unknown would have loved to attend

 

[GosuSheep]

Well. Perhaps next gamefest, we can all play together. huzzah! Hope your event goes well.

 

[metalreflectslime]

What will be the name of the building that the Gamefest will take place? I might go there on Saturday so I can get used to the bus riding and familiarize myself with the venue so I don't get lost on the day of the tournament.

 

[GosuSheep]

It is called the Campus Center.

You can use google maps (which even says "Campus Center" on it-.-):
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=721+c...i=ncCWS9uRKI-otgOnwMDCAQ&ved=0CAoQ8gEwAA&z=16

Or just look at the directions/map on the original post. I personally think that is more helpful.

 

[CableCho57]

Campus center? Is that near the food court? I've been to cc several times and took classes there but don't remember a campus center.

 

[metalreflectslime]

Thanks. Let me check it out on Saturday. Is there an order of what games will be played first or are they all going to be run at the same time?

EDIT: Melee at 1 PM. Got it.

 

[DanteFox]

Campus center? Is that near the food court? I've been to cc several times and took classes there but don't remember a campus center.

Yeah it's right next to the cafeteria iirc.

 

[GosuSheep]

It IS the cafeteria.

 

[A2ZOMG]

I think I'll be attending this (for Brawl, Melee, and Street Fighter 4). Even though this might conflict with UCSB's weekly Smash Club meetings (which I'm a co-president for), but otherwise, chances are good I'll actually make this one.

I'll see if I can get TonyGuacamole and JohnZ to make it here, as well as other players if possible. =)

 

[CableCho57]

Yeah this a month from now so we should advertise to members of the club to come and maybe even cancel that days meeting and just have it at gamefest

 

[Dantarion]

Yeah, you guys should do that, maybe get a bus-pool or car-pool goin.

Then anyone who wants to come from down there will have people to come/leave with.

 

[metalreflectslime]

Bus-pool sounds good. I don't want to get lost. David, I am glad you could make it.

 

[GosuSheep]

!!!!Changed so that brawl setups can be brought in to wave entry fee!!!!

Where the setups at yo?!?!?!

 

[CableCho57]

How many setups do we have for melee so far?

 

[metalreflectslime]

I think like 2 besides from the ones that they have by default.

 

[GosuSheep]

Only 3 in total! Now.. This thing is a month away, so we have PLENTY of time to get more, but it'd be nice to get a count early.

 

[CableCho57]

Hey gosu if you really do need it, you can pick up my setup early that day. I have a tv small enough to carry with your arms

 

[GosuSheep]

With my strong, super sexy arms? Why yes, I think that would be splendid.

I am going to try to get to gamefest at around 8:00am, so I'd want to pick up from your place at around 7:30am. If that's too early for you, what about the night before?

 

[metalreflectslime]

COST?:
Entry is free.
Each tournament is $5.
Food is a reasonable price that is yet to be determined.
Donations are welcome!

FOR BRAWL AND MELEE:
· Bringing in a complete set-up (CRT TV, Gaming Console, smash disc, and memory card with all characters/stages/etc) will wave entry fee of $5.
· Bringing in partial set-up may reduce entry fee.
· Please post in this thread if you plan to bring set-ups!

I think the wording sounds confusing because venue fee is different from entry fee. When a person usually brings a set up, their venue fee is waived not their entry fee. Otherwise, if everyone brought set ups then there would be no prize pot. Well, I am pretty sure you already knew this, but I just wanted to point this out so no one else would get confused.
