stop hitting me, Ricky
it depends a lot on the time of year. during july tickets arent going to be as cheap as 400 to cali lol :p
You can buy plane tickets from Boston to San Francisco for that weekend RIGHT NOW for less than $400 on www.sidestep.com
>_>

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.
I'm sorry but have you never been to a smash tournament? I almost never stay 10 hours at a tourney and the venues (bigger than a bus) mostly reek by the time I leave. Better hope someone brings some febreeze or something.

Power Ranking, post of importance

Okay, so I just got a call back from Mike for the round robin... however I didn't pick up the phone. I tried calling him back and he didn't pick up, him and I just cannot phone eachother lol.

So, to be clear possibilities of people are:
1 Chewman
2 Dorf
3 Aiser
4 DD
5 DD's bro
6 me
7 Jam
8 JV
9 Rich
10 Zoraida

Anyone else for possibly making it? Only the people going to the round robin aren't going to be the only ones for the Power Ranking, right? Because I think that's a bit insane to have a new Power Ranking every month.

This one I am sincerely sorry for making an additional post. It was an accident.

yes, they are

Lol, we're talking about the travelling, you cant add the time from the venue in there.
if they're not comparable, then why did you compare them :dizzy:

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.
it's not cheaper

maybe the flight was boring, but the 4 days before and after your flight were probably pretty **** good... and if they weren't, that's on you -_-

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.
hard to believe that a bus full of smashers won't smell bad.

you think the general population of smashers has good cleanliness habits? have you ever been to a large smash tournament? :(

and i've done longer too; it's not "that" bad, but this is 3x longer than my own longest trip

also, as for the toilet, seriously. who goes #2 on a bus. thats just dirty.
maybe you think so (and I think so too), but i can guarantee that not only are there people that disagree, but in the heat of the moment and it came down to it, people would compromise their principles to not crap their pants

how the hell am i suppose to know hahaha, i just know that that is whats happening =]
it's what they WANT to happen, not what IS happening

bawls is one of the sponsors that im aware, of, its not so much secrecy as much as you speaking without knowing :dizzy:
KevinM said:
Hey all KevinM here, I'm currently in charge of the sponsorships as well as lodging for all of you brave enough to accompany me in the Smash Bus.

A breakdown of what I'm trying to accomplish

Sponsorships from:
Bawls
MLG
Holiday Inn
Monster
Nintendo (REALLY big stretch)
Game Universe (Maybe, I have to talk to Matt)
And more

I've met with the holiday inn representatives at Lincoln and they seemed extremely interested in the idea, I'm going to meet with them again talk to them about how this bus garners possible media attention as well as a host of other respectable sponsors.

Any Ideas and or help, post here.
NikoK said:
I have just received an E-Mail from Bawls and were are most definitely getting a ton of free drinks and a ton of free swag as well. I'm currently in the works of discussing a possible financial aid from Bawls at the moment as well.

If anyone has any potential sponsors that they feel we should approach, don't be shy to post in this thread.
trust me, I'm as aware as anyone not directly involved in the process

free drinks isn't really relevant

Yeah, I'm being incredibly secretive by having a post on the sponsors and various goals on the forum dedicated to the tournament.

Le sigh

i already quoted your post, so i'm obviously aware of it

though with the rapid spam in this thread it's forgiven

on the other hand, what i want to know is if you actually have any 'confirmed' hotel sponsors
