Okay, here's the problem:

JUJ, Nike, and myself all set up a plan for San Antonio's little trip to MLG this coming weekend. The idea was to have Nike's carpool (Nike, K Prime, Paw, Santi, and myself) go in one car, while JUJ takes his van (JUJ, KoN, Laurel, Big Boss, Slush, Kyle [King Mosquito]). We also set up arrangements at a hotel.

We were pretty much set. Sometime yesterday morning, I suddenly get a call from JUJ. His job has set up a mandatory meeting for Friday at 1PM. This, obviously, means that not only would his carpool be without a ride to Dallas (which means the money for their passes is going to waste), but San Antonio's hotel plans have just gone down the tube. This includes Houston's hoteling with us being potentially dropped, as well as Raziek's spot in our hotel rooms.

Clearly, San Antonio is in one hell of a tight spot. We're trying to find methods in which to get those 5 players from JUJ's carpool to MLG Dallas, and we only have until Thursday to find a method to do so.

Above that, assuming JUJ doesn't go, we need a place for the 10 of us from San Antonio to crash if he are unable to find a hotel that fits within our budget.

JUJ still hasn't said with absolute certainty whether or not he can or can't go, but it's not looking so good for San Antonio on a whole.

=====

If anyone can help San Antonio + Leaf's carpool + Raziek with housing, we'd definitely appreciate it. Also, if anyone knows of any way we can possibly get JUJ's carpool over to Dallas, we'd be grateful for that as well.

Even just sharing information would be a great deal of help. I want everyone from SA to go, and it sucks that their opportunity for MLG Dallas has been shot because of an unfortunate event with JUJ's job.

=====

Oh, and just for clarification, exactly how much would it cost to Greyhound from SA to Dallas (roundtrip, obviously)? I was told approximately $40.

Espy, it isn't $40 for SA to Dallas. It was $40 for Austin to SA.

It'll probably be double that for SA to Dallas.

Ah, my mistake then.
$80 eh?
Hmmm. Maybe there might be some other way.

This is not the kind of thread I like to find on a namesearch, though I had heard from Laurel that stuff might be in trouble.

Assuming a worst case scenario that JUJ's carpool cannot make it (I really hope this doesn't happen), is it still possible for Nike's carpool and I to split a room at a hotel?

Please keep me posted guys, I need to know what's going on since I'm FLYING in.

Nike said worse case scenario, his carpool would be able to room with another city. I'm hoping he included you in our group.

I still want to try to get our second carpool to go though.

Well, Nike and I were supposed to team, so I can't imagine he'd leave me out. xD

Yea, my carpool (Me, Espy, K Prime, Paw, Santi) is still able to go to Dallas. When JUJ confirms wheter or now he'll be able to go, we can try to book a hotel room with someone else. IF we can't get a hotel room, then we could house with one of the Dallas players. He's a 45 minute drive from the venue, but it's better than nothing (and it's free).

Basically, wait til JUJ has news. Nike's carpool is still going.
