Yeah I forgot about that. I'll ask Tom to contact the other Pillars unless he sees this.

And yea Joel too.

Spin-Dash do you know what time you'll be flying in and out?

I will be in touch with my travel agent tomorrow about specific times for my tickets and whatnot. So you'll have your confirmations with that tomorrow or the day after, no later. Lurking is good too.

Good to know that I will have housing though!

I'll be flying in and out the same days as PC.

I can't buy my tickets for at least a couple weeks though. I'm in debt 200$ at the moment, and tickets are 600$...but i got this.

well I deffinitly have the money thanks to work.. but unforenitly it will be hard for me to take any days off, so even if I were able to come it would only be on the weekend when the tournament is.. and the time difference is 3 hrs back from here? I don't quite remember..

Anywho seems unlikely... However I am trying to get other Canadians/ BC smashers to go...

aww man that sucks. you can't come here just for the tournament. we will have great stuff for you. try get more days off please. this is probably once in a life time before pc's and kdj's slowly retirement and it means so much to us to have more oos players.

My pasty white skin could use a good tan (burn, I never tan. Always get burned)... If I have enough money/time off work to go, I'll do it.

I REALLY don't like to ask this, but I did hear a while back about possible subsidizing for people coming from OOS. Would someone (Bobby) care to elaborate on this for me?

Hey Adam. :]

Well to elaborate. I understand how expensive it is to travel. I always spend a ton when I travel to the mainland. Average 600 on air fare alone so I know how much it hurts when it's all over.

So for those that I spoke to personally and those people only, I will do my very best to give back some so that you are not flat broke after attending this.

I am working super overtime as much as I can. My health is not 100% at the moment but I'm still working long hours since most of it is minor manual labor and indoors primarily.

If you can pay for your tickets and come down here. I'll give back a minimum of $100.00. I can't say how much exactly because I don't know how many others whom I spoke to are still coming or not. But I will definitely try to give back more.

But yeah I understand cause we're all in college, gas prices are going up as is food, clothes and daily wants. So consider it my thank you to you for being a part of this moment that will stand still in Hawaii Smash History.

And yes Adam, you, Eric, and John (if he's still up for it) are among those whom I will help buffer costs. I also spoke with others and they know who they are.

You can post here or something to keep me updated. Sooner you book your flights the sooner we can assign you houses. Thanks so much Canada.

These are about the same prices that I paid for when going to Dan 2. Hehehe.
These are the best I can find for now. I recommend booking your flights before ticket prices go up. Keep the questions coming if you have any. I'll respond as soon as I can.

And Idk why I chose July 22nd to July 30th. Guess cause everyone's doing it. Lowest prices too. lolz

Whatever works! ^^

I can use a decent amount of characters, anyone who reads this. My specialty is Sonic though that's often in Singles situations. If you're Pikachu, then I can use someone like the Pokémon Trainer, Luigi, or Lucario. It's all good. :p
