k' Tink,

If we meet up in the tournament, use Ganon vs Fox.

INCLUDING in the finals, if I'm lucky enough to make it there.

That'll be our $MM wager.

As far as you not having a partner, I haven't heard back from KirkQ (I dono if he's going) ... so I call dibs on Pete Chen!! (:

... if he's going. lolz'

Where exactly do we go once we get in front of the building? Will there be signs showing us the way (lol) or will we just have to look for it?

Can you tell us where to go?
I'll try to put up signs, they may not be too visible. Just call us though. I'll post more detailed directions later when I'm not at work.

Alright, that's a map of the area. The crosshairs show our building. If you're bringing a tv or cube, you might want to pull into the driveway so you don't have to lug it around outside and then go park.

We will try to put up signs indicating the tournament, but we don't have too much paper, so they will be cheap, scattered, and not very big.

When you get here, make sure you call one of us. We have to let you in. We will show you where to go in the building and such. Our numbers:
khepri/Jorge: 562-774-6412
Nolan: 773-504-6354

If you're coming from the metra station, then you want to get off on 55th street and head west for 5 blocks or so until you hit Ellis Ave and head north there. Turn left on 54th place and our building is on the corner of that block.

i call that last spot, i definitely will need that free singles entry.

looking for doubles partner as well...
The plan was first 3 for cubes or tv's; unfortunately other confirmed guests already signed up to bring their cubes. Sorry if it seems like deception, but the free entry for singles are taken unless you bring a tv.

On the chance I don't forget, i can bring a nice stack of stock paper to save the day.

*I'll pack the VCR, Cube and paper now to be safe.

EDIT: Can someone give me a ride from the tournament to Union Station when it's all over? I don't think this is going to be going on too late, , but I need to be at Union Station by midnight.

Will pay any expenses required for this voyage, such as cash for gas and out of wayness.

I'll probably need a partner for this as I think Captain Awesome is now teaming with his bro. Any takers?

Khepri,

The crosshairs on the map you posted show the building to be located on Ellis Avenue, not Ingleside avenue. Which one is it?

Could you provide some directions coming from north? (Also, where do we park?)

The last few steps of our mapquest directions around the area are:

13. Take Exit 57 A toward 51st st.
14. Turn SLIGHT LEFT onto S Wells st
15. Turn LEFT onto W 51st Street
16. Turn RIGHT onto S Drexel Ave
17. S. Drexel AVE becomes E 55th St
18. Turn LEFT onto S Ingleside ave
19. End at 5545 S Ingleside avenue

We'll be coming from North Barrington.

Thanks!

It might be too late for you to see this, but the address is 5445 S. Ingleside Ave. Not 5545. If there's no parking in the area, then there is a parking garage you may park at on ellis and 55th.

First tournament, had to face Chen and then Cap'n. Boooh brackets! My one and only victory was my Yoshi against Chen's Marth! But I'd have to say that Captain Awesome whooping my Yoshi canceled out that victory.

Should have eaten more donuts! That would have helped.. some.. how.

Yeah and they even made me a moderator I'm as confused as you are!

Well see, here's the thing.. I see videos of yous guys and I think "Gee, I suck." and also "I like having 10 dollars." But figured I'd give it a shot at least once.

Not sure if I'll go to any more. We'll see!
