I can take 5 people. However, one of them has to be some one who can drive a stick shift and wants to split half the drive with me each way. So roughly 3 hours each way and I'll do 3 hours each way. If you want to come from NJ find your way to me Friday night (after 9 I work till 9) Then I want to leave Friday night provided we find housing. I want to stay until Sunday ideally, but I don't know when we might be leaving (Either Saturday night or sometime Sunday). Hopefully Sunday if the 2nd driver can stay till Sunday.

So anyways, requirements.

Find your way to me, On Friday night sometime after 9.

Be willing to pay for 1/5 the gas/tolls.

At least one person must split drive for the whole trip to happen (Its a stick shift manual transmission) I can give a crash course on this thats all thats really needed for highway driving as once your are cruising on a highway in 5th gear its the same as an automatic.

If your m2k and chu doesn't team with me you must team with me.

I think thats about it.

More details to come.

Post if your interested. My hierarchy of people who come is based on the 2nd driver since the trip won't happen without him, my crew, m2k ( if he teams with me ) Then people I like the most. ^^ Not who gets lucky and sees this and posts first.

Edit : Sensei is working out work stuff he might be able to be the 2nd driver. If not I'm looking towards you chibo.. or anyone else whose interested you get auto to the top of the hierarchy don't forget. ^^

i would like to come but i cant drive stick shift. il find someway to u in jersey lol

edit: its pretty hard to get to your place eggm bein out there in jersey, and would cost a lot of extra money from public transportation. however, i popped in neptune to pittsburg in mapquest, and added my dorm in drexel as a stop on the way and it's only an additional 20 minutes. il even throw ya a lil extra money if you come pick me up ;)

Also, i dunno if m2k has a way to this but perhaps he could already be at my place and come with us.

I can't go this. I just realized I have two papers due next week, one being a large paper having a major impact on my final grade, which I haven't even started yet. Sorry Dr. Eggman, maybe Sonic will drive your eggmobile.

Ok, since its already thursday I need to know if your defintley going vanz, also spammer if your going to go. m2k wants one of these spots if either of you can't. I'm estimating 15 each person for tolls/gas, could be more/less but not by much.

just FYI, last time I did a 5 way split from Pittsburgh to Philly it was ~ $20/person. Of course it depends on gas mileage and all that junk, but the turnpike toll is like $15+ each way and it's about 300 miles each way.

I'll get back to you on that later today. Also, what is a close train station to your house?

M2k, couldn't you take a train? I think thats what swift does when he comes to the east coast tourneys. although it would be a hefty fee for the train ticket. But you will make it back in your winnings anywayz. So no johns...?

M2k is the best player in the world at super smash bros. melee, hands down. He's an intelligent person if he puts his mind to it. I'm sure he can handle walking from one train into another. And if he gets confused, you ask someone on the train, or call your parents. If he can make up elaborate chaingrabs, predict techchases, why can't he take a train? Why does everyone act like he's mentally ********?

have you met Jason? seriously, he's not ******** or anything, but taking care of himself is not really his forte. He forgets to eat sometimes at tourneys, and will stay up for 30 hours if no one makes him go to sleep. <3 M2K, but he shouldn't be traveling across state by himself.
