West Idaho & SoTah @ Buzz's apartment

 

[Xsyven]

How many people show up to Idaho tournaments? I could fly into Idaho Falls-- how far away from Rexburg is that?

 

[gnosis]

I and two others are planning on coming. Well, 2 for now, that number may increase.

Oh yeah, and we will probably need overnight hosting.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

How many people show up to Idaho tournaments? I could fly into Idaho Falls-- how far away from Rexburg is that?

It's about 20 to 30 minutes away. Most of the players are coming from Idaho Falls anyway, so you could probably get Mike or Ryan to pick you up. If not, perhaps you could time your trip with gnosis'. We'll figure something out.

If the situation becomes dire, I could head out and pick you up. As for attendance, we generally range between 10 and 20 people on a good day. When Utah attended last time, we had a pretty good turnout from Idaho as well. We'll need Mike and Ryan's help getting those people again.

 

[Casture]

My house is free to anyone...if necessary. I live halfway between Idaho Falls and Rexburg.

I got TV cube smash ....hopefully there aren't any stairs we have to go up. TV's are heavy.

 

[Yamer]

You picked the one bad weekend lol. I can't go

 

[Xsyven]

Well, you got me on an open weekend, but I don't know if I'd be up to it.

The first weekend of June, I'm going to SLC. The second weekend, I'm going to Portland, the fourth weekend, I'm going to Washington DC, and the next I might be in Houston...

I think I'll sit this one out, Buzz. Go to Salt Lake on the 2nd. We need to play!

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Whoa... sudden burnout! Shall I delay it until July? It would probably be better and give more people time to plan on attending.

And no, Casture, there are no stairs to traverse. You've been to my latest apartment, haven't you?

 

[gnosis]

Hmm. I'll ask. One of the people already asked work off, but he could be able to switch it.

This is just my concern though, don't let me dictate anything.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Well, on one hand, I don't want to change the current plan since everyone has this date in mind. On the other hand, I want to insure a decent turnout.

I'll give it some thought.

 

[Xsyven]

Don't change the date because I can't come-- just go to SLC this weekend!

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Don't change the date because I can't come-- just go to SLC this weekend!

It's not just you who can't come. And where's my new sig?

 

[RedYoshi92]

I might be there.I'll have to gather up some cash first.

 

[Xsyven]

It's not just you who can't come. And where's my new sig?

I made one, but I don't really like it.

I'll make another one, and give you both.

 

[FeLixSainT]

id be willing to go if i can hitch a ride with gnosis. dunno about bringing anyone else. either way, i asked gamescape and they want a signed sheet of guaranteed attendants. i recommend any locals in w.idaho to arrange a meeting somewhere for a little smashing as well as signing up for the gig and discussing possible tournament dates. tmw ima head over to playntrade and sign up for the june 2nd thing. sooooo POO

 

[gnosis]

Well Felix, we're probably going to have another smashfest/mini-tournament sometime this week. I dunno though, might be next week depending on who all can come. You're invited, of course

Anyway, we could get some discussion and list-making going on there.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Well, no Yamer, no Xsyven, and so far no Utah carpool. You guys still up for this? I am if you are. We got Casture. XD

I could move it to July 9. I just need to know which you all prefer.

 

[FeLixSainT]

kk, just lemme know ahead of time so i can plan ahead. im already registered at playntrade for this saturday and the rest of the day will be dedicated to my sis' b-day. so if its anytime soon call me to make sure. btw i just saw this pc chris play for the first time. all i have to say is.................... -.-

 

[gnosis]

Felix, IRL or in a video? Because if it's IRL then I wanna know what the hell you've been up to, lol.

As far as we are concerned, I think it might be best to move this tourney to July 9th now.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Agreed. July 9 it is!

 

[Gojira]

eh

there might have been a utah carpool if the date was not changed to july.....oc3 is in july...........

 

[Casture]

Thanks for saying something sooner.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Thanks for saying something sooner.

Yeah, no kidding. Didn't you Utah smashers go to 0C2? And now you are going to 0C3? Man, I forgot how rich I was as a single person. >_<

 

[Casture]

Buzz, it would be really helpful to know if we are actually having a tourny next week. Just re-set it and lets see who could come.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Done. ^_^

 

[gnosis]

Yeah, I talked to Gojira and he said that he and several other Utahs will try to be there. And now my group has work off again, so we'll be there.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Excellent! Idaho versus Utah crew battle! :D

 

[Ratking1234]

Any idea as to a rough garuntee of attendees?

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Any idea as to a rough guarantee of attendees?

We generally have from 16 to 20 attendees at Idaho tournaments. I have no idea how this one will turn out, but with Utah and west Idaho attending, it should be decent.

 

[BattleChrist]

So what is the date now?

 

[Casture]

June 16th............

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

So what is the date now?

June 16 like Casture said. Can you come? I figured hosting a crew battle would work since no Yamer = no Perfect Chaos.

 

[BattleChrist]

ya i should be able to go ill need a partner

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

ya i should be able to go ill need a partner

I'm open as usual... sadly... once again...

Hey, see if Chexican can come too. Any news on Felix?

 

[BattleChrist]

Im down for being your partner but we need to not fvck each other up for once. Unless Chex comes i might partner with him in that case.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Utah not posting in this thread is making me nervous...

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Forgive the double post, but I need to bump this with news:

Utah is not coming. I fear it would not be worth west Idaho's time to drive all the way over here (you can if you still really want to). I apologize for those who got work off that day. Get together and practice! Prepare for next month! I will still hold a smashfest this Saturday, so I hope BattleChrist, Casture, and whoever else wants to come can still come.

 

[gnosis]

Haha, it's okay.

One of my travelling buddies is going to Oregon to see his parents, and the other said he called off work but then he actually forgot to. And I wouldn't want to do the trip on my own right now, so, eh. No big deal.

 

[Casture]

Yep, I'll be there.....at 12 still Buzz..? I'll try to bring Josh along with me. He doesn't even know the tourney is canceled yet, sssssss.

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Yeah. We'll just smash things up for a while. Quality practice for a future event. ^_^

Sadly, my video capture attempt failed miserably, Casture. Do you have any equipment for digitizing?
