何?
I've come to hate charter buses. The toilet in the back always becomes a problem, the giant windows can't be opened, ventilation is horrible, the seats are uncomfortable.

It's like an airplane, except instead of being on it for 3 hours at the most you're on it for... God forbid, 2 weeks.

Wait, we're stopping at hotels and you don't have to pay for the hotels you stop at? That's amazing!!!!!

yeah, did you guys not read anything about it or something, and just assume you'd have to shower by pissing on eachother? :chuckle:

as far as i know, the hotel stops are fully paid for by the sponsors that niko told me about.
so you're only on the bus for 40 hours, 10 hours at a time, with shower breaks and hotel time.

and you're only paying for the amount of the bus wich is somewhere like 350-370 or somethin.

silly americans :chuckle: <3

edit: freaking number 2 rules in effect, if you gotta **** open a window or wait till the bus stops.

I just added this now

I'm telling you, you don't even have to edit quick, you can just edit within that day, lol.

Actually just try it for yourself, because this shows no proof. >_>

Wrong sir, $500/600 for plane 370 for smash bus.
i've seen 400 and under tickets for coast to coast

plane ticket prices fluctuate VERY wildly; you just have to constantly check on them, and maybe get lucky =\

Really, spending 10 hours on a bus for 4 days isnt much worse than staying in a venue for 2 whole straight days, especially considering you can shower when you get to the hotels.
it is more than twice as bad

now add that on top of your 10 hours for 4 days, you have staying in a venue for 3 straight days immediately after, then after that, 4 more days of the bus

discomfort grows exponentially

edit: i'm still curious as to why anyone would sponsor you with hotels

serious question that i've asked multiple times, and never gotten a real answer for

****, Cog, I wouldn't have to take work off or anything. There's limited spots for smashbus anyways, thanks Cog. I might still go on the smashbus. XD Aren't a lot of top level players going? Really good Canadians, etc?

Pocky, the reason why these sponsors entertain the idea, is media coverage, yes this bus can garner media coverage. It also is setting multiple records which helps for media coverage as well as a selling point.

I'm not like 15 and just wistfully dreaming for something to happen.

and @ Cog I know thats why your here and I still <3 you for it most of the time :p

Edit: Is it possible to technically "spam" the CT Thread

Says the man who SC spams all day occasionally, lol.

Also, I occasionally go on rampages for spamming. Like, during school break I hardly posted for 3-4 weeks. I also hardly posted over the summer.

Occasional spamming sprees ftw, haha.

Edit:
I think I was on that border line of 3 minutes when I did that. Probably. So, you can edit up to 3 mins without it showing then?

This doesn't work if you go to user cp then back to ct threads.. or at least not for 2 minutes.

*insert some joke about the types of records it will be setting*

so who's sponsoring it?

I assume if they're "sponsoring" you, they're doing it to get their name out there, so all this secrecy is counterproductive, no?

it depends a lot on the time of year. during july tickets arent going to be as cheap as 400 to cali lol :p

it is more than twice as bad

now add that on top of your 10 hours for 4 days, you have staying in a venue for 3 straight days immediately after, then after that, 4 more days of the bus

discomfort grows exponentially
Lol, we're talking about the travelling, you cant add the time from the venue in there.
to me it doesnt matter, except smashbus is cheaper, and road trip with friends + smash + hotels = win. i took a plane down to ct at the beginning of the year. most boring thing ever.

plus, you dont have to sleep in the bus, you have the hotels, you get to shower, and unless ya'll dont believe in deodarant, 10 hours really shouldnt be that bad, i've done longer car trips. just dont be an *** hole and smell doesnt get bad.

also, as for the toilet, seriously. who goes #2 on a bus. thats just dirty.

edit: i'm still curious as to why anyone would sponsor you with hotels

serious question that i've asked multiple times, and never gotten a real answer for
how the hell am i suppose to know hahaha, i just know that that is whats happening =]

I find it more fun to experiment with different ways of making fun of McFox's browser than to just type "Browser > McFox's" all the time. also, wtf, that wasn't even close to a double post, you had like 4 minutes between posts, how could you not see that there would be 4 posts in between them by then :bee:

well, Pocky's point is that if someone knows specifics, why aren't they out in the open? and if no one knows specifics, how do you know that this will still be at all economically viable? (adding 8 nights of hotels is kinda a big deal for how much it'll cost :p).

Desh, I just posted it like, <1 full page ago, way to be a scrub.

6. Do not Double or Triple Post This is self-explanatory, but do not double, triple, quadruple, etc. post. The exception is in the Creative Minds forum or if you do it by accident, but only when you are posting poems/stories/etc. If you need to add something, simply use the edit button. Please note that there is one exception to this rule, which is if you want to double post to tease McFox for having a lamer internet browser than you.
