nxt to Dphat wit all dem azn biches
I just want to point out that these are two different tournaments. I think there's some confusion. They both have brawl but the first one isn't having melee.

Fino I believe you were wanting to go to the first tournament? That's not for us. They're also on two different weekends :p
he is going to both :p
If everything works out smoothly... this^^^
The tournament in iowa this weekend is the substitute for joker's monthly

k jfro pyro both confirmed, phat wants to go and has to get off work which he hopefully can do, and rezo also wants to go, but hes got to grow the cajones to do so.

assuming that everyone that said they can go, find a way to go, thats 11 dudes. theres no way its gonna be 11 cause people are lame and it'll inevitably drop a bit, but even if its 11 we can work out two cars still, i think.

i think if anyone's going to get kicked out of a carpool with a strong majority of melee players, it'd be the Brawl players.
& people are going to john out anyway.

EDIT: & one of those people is me.
next time i'm not even going to ask my parents i'm just going to go. fts

yeah the venus is AMAZING. best place to consolidate would at pyros parents or aunts, as its right on the way. if you're comin from lawrence it'll probably be a 3.5-4 hour drive

Pyro's aunt's would be ideal, since everyone already knows where it is.

It's about a 2.5-3 hr drive from Liberty up to Des Moines, we'd have to get together at 9 or 10 if we wanted to get there with time to spare before 1pm (I think that's when stuff starts, anyway). Suburban liberty is also a reasonable safe place to leave an unattended vehicle.

The venue area sounds soooo dank. I see that there's a bar... Dmac you're over 21 right? ^_^

The venue pictures are on facebook. *krai*

Anyone got the details figured out yet? Exactly how much gas will cost, what time we're leaving, who's driving, housing, etc etc. I would drive but my car is a piece of cheese.

Depends on who's going and how long it'd take with the stop at pyroty's
I'm good w/ driving, but whoever has the best mpg/doesn't mind driving should be the person. According to mapquest, it'd cost ~$9 a person (assuming a 5-way split). I heard iowa is pretty good w/ housing, I'll ask joker... he can prolly get all of us in.

lolcheese? what kind of car do you have?

So we still only have 1 car... haha somebody needs to step up.

And yeah check with housing, I'd rather not have to pay to be able to sleep at night, because I have a minimum amount of money this weekend. **** I would rather sleep outside than pay for a hotel.

Umm my car is an '89. nuff said.

Yeah, but we need to get there in time to reg.

I got semi-confirmed housing... as in someone told me "this person should be able to house you guys. I'll try to get a hold of them. I wouldn't pay for housing either - haha.

Jace will get to see my car today :]

Markis start picking up some quarters.

I think the only person who would be able to house you would be Captain love or Joker.

Be there at 12 please.

Just $9 a person for gas? Darn, I would've been able to go if I didn't spend a few more dollars after getting MW2.
I was so disappointed about MW2. I was gonna buy it for the PC but then they completely trashed it. No dedicated servers, no mods, no console commands, no leaning. I was surprised to hear they hadn't removed mouse support.

Yeah I've heard about all the crap they did to the PC version.

You don't get a user score like that just from a few other console trolls posting for the lulz.

Well if you want to hear from someone who got the only version of the game not botched in some way (aside from not being allowed to use XBL Party Chat during TDM for some odd reason), it's amazing. Campaign, multiplayer and all.

i do not plan on spending the night, even if it ends late
Thank god.
I spent 2 weeks there for work last summer; I've slept in Iowa more than I ever wanted to.

$9 for gas, $10 entry fee for Melee, $10 entry fee for SF4, no hotel, food for one day about $20. I think I may be able to pay for this. But someone would need to pick me up.

i mean i guess i can come up with a plan now, nothing really changes either way. either 5 in both cars, 4 in both cars,or in with 4 one with 5. wheres mjg live? i guess we have to figure out who wants to drive the large chunk of time from pyros to iowa. as far as i know only fino and i have offered to drive so thats two cars from lawrence, but if someone else is wanting to drive from pyros we can just do one car from lawrence too. i plan on takin my station wagon as it has room for two moderately sized tvs and im bringing my own setup and im sure pyro has a setup to jam in my car too. if you're wanting to bring your own brawl setup fino we should probably drive seperately

edit FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU markis... we'll see, atm we have 10 people planned so that means no room for blackis, but **** might go down and plans change

I think Fino meant that he wouldn't know until MJG gets out of school. Also, is it just me or does MJG look like HMW? Hahaha

This tourney is lookin' pretty hype atm. I wonder if any other oos are comin' besides us...?

Dibs on riding with Dmac and Phat.

ALSO x 15 - Let me know if I should bring a setup.
