Hi, USA!
My name is Robin (better known in Europe as Tonberry) and I'm interested in going to Genesis this summer. I'm 20 years old, and I live in Norway.
My only issue here is that I need housing. I'm planning to stay from the 2nd - 13th, where I need housing between the 2nd and the 10th. The reasons why I'm planning to come so early is:
- I've never been in the USA before, so I'd like to do some sightseeing and explore the country.
- I got a pretty nice price for flights from that day, which I pretty much can afford.

My only requirement for the housing is that I want to get housed by someone who will go to Genesis. In that way I got someone to travel with to the venue. As said; I've never been to America before, so it might be hard for me to find the venue all on my own :p

With this said, I'm a Melee player (I play SSB64 as well), who don't really enjoy playing Brawl. So it would be cool if someone who enjoys playing Melee would like to house me. In that way I might get some practice playing in the NTSC version of the game :p
HOWEVER, this is not a requirement. I'll just be happy if some kind soul would like to house me :) I'm also willing to pay to get housed, as long as it doesn't cost too much, I have a limited amount of money... My whole chance to come to USA lies in your hands, I'm really grateful if someone can make this wish of mine come true. After all, my game is a dying game, and this is probably my only chance to attend an American Melee tourney.

If someone is willing to take the burden of housing an European guy this summer, or even got some questions; feel free to contact me by PM, e-mail, MSN or AIM:

Hope to hear from some of you soon! :)
Didn't really know where to post this, but hopefully it's okay to post it here.

btw, if you stay at my place, i wont charge you or anything. genesis is expensive enough for everyone here, let alone people from out of the country.
I strongly appreciate that! Thank you very much! :)
I've added you on my AIM. Hope to talk to you soon.
