CLASH of the TITANS V
HYPE THREAD!


It seems like a lot of players in southern Ontario have shown interest in going to this event. Sauc3 has told us that Megabus tickets are like $2 to go to the US if you buy them early enough. I can attest to this statement. My total trip to Philadelphia (which I already bought) cost me $12.64. Unfortunately on the way back I had to take 2 busses (going through Buffalo) but still, $12.64 is an amazing price. The bus stop is 4 blocks away from the venue (8 min walk according to google maps)

There are a number of players from our scene confirmed for this event. This means they paid the venue fee, paid for their trip, and paid for events. These include:

  • Toronto Joe (in singles) [going to team with Blackanese]
    [collapse=Toronto Joe's route]-Friday, June 24th, 2011
    Departs 11:00 AM Toronto, Toronto Coach Terminal
    Arrives 9:55 PM Philadelphia, 30th St Station
    10hrs 55mins

    -Monday, June 27th, 2011
    Departs 9:10 AM Philadelphia, 30th St Station

  • Patches (in singles & doubles (with Fishy))
    [collapse=Patches' route]-Friday, June 24th, 2011

Everyone who's being Housed at Chibo Sempai's (Friday, Saturday, & Sunday Night):

  • Toronto Joe
  • Patches
  • Fishy
  • Gichan
  • Ambrose
  • Tin Man
  • Ally
  • Holy Nightmare

My goal is to get the entire southern Ontario PR to this tournament. I want us to go in full force and make a strong impression on the US. There are already 3 PR members confirmed going!

How do I get started?

Find ur tickets at: http://us.megabus.com/
Register for CoT5 at http://cot5.vgbootcamp.com/
Info about Cot5 at the tourney thread: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=292146&page=29
Practice by going to the Spring Smash Showdown: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=298436

I strongly suggest attendance at the up and coming Ontario tournaments to practice your game and practice your doubles team as well. In these next few tournaments, we need to play and help each other grow as a region so that we can hit the US in full force with the best of our ability, showing them we got what it takes to be considered a region to be reckoned with. This will be my 1st national and I'm hyped up. Together, we can do this!

Someone needs to pay for my bus. Preferably someone with paypal who I can just send the money to, otherwise I'll pay you back at the next tourney.

I'll pay whoever back ASAP.

In my case, I can't wait till monday since I'm going to lie to my parents about this. Therefore I have to go thru buffalo to get home asap. I'm taking the overnight bus tho. The way I'm doing it, imma only need 1 day of housing.

Iliad is right, its only a 5 min walk. I talked to chibo.

****ing yes.

And everyone take notice.

I will CONSIDER, getting people's bus tickets for this. CONSIDER it. But if this is the case, I need to be paid back at the tourney on the 26th.

The easiest way to do this though, is just to get a prepaid credit card, and pay that way. Trust me here.

I however, refuse to pay for anyone else's single/double's. I've already paid mine, Fishy's and Joe's. My mother would get pissy if I paid anymore. lollool

Edit: And why the **** are there tickets for Monday morning now. There weren't yesterday afternoon. ):

I talked to my mother about buying people's tickets and you guys paying me back.

As it stands right now, Dirt's ticket is the last I can buy. I might try negotiating with her with this option: You guys give me the money at the tourney on the 26th. Give me the routes you want, and I'll either buy your ticket at the tournament ( If there is wifi/I have my mother's credit card ), OR, I'll buy them as soon as I get back home.

All I need from you guys, if I buy your ticket is three things:
1. The money, obviously.
2. Mailing address.
3. Postal code.

Just ran that idea past my mother and she's fine with it. So if you need someone to buy your tickets, I can buy them for you after the tourney~

Seriously guys. Get on this ****!

I agree with what chibo said. I mean, as it is right now (I'm not sure if this is 100% true, cause it isn't updated, as far as I know) the only one who are completely ready for this are myself, Joe and Fishy. You guys should register, it's only like... 45 bucks for everything right now. That's a ****ing AWESOME deal.

And you can even get some money back if you bring a wii. (;

Not sure if Hamilton is going to make it out for this. Cash flow is minimal right now, and I may be into my apprenticeship during this time, so weekends may need to be sacrificed in order to get my hours faster.

Already spoke to Geoff on the matter, he's not really feeling it, and I think Raidos is likely going to be working in Montréal at the time. We'll see when we get there though.

It's still 2 months from the date, and it's $20 each way. I'm gonna wait at least until May, because I doubt it'll go up from there.

Bought my pass, still hoping Megabus prices will go down. I'll probably give up if they haven't gone down by the end of April.
