Here's one: my truck's pretty much shot; I can drive it only short distances before it literally dies on me.
Edit: yeah, quote, I play SSB64.

I'll MM you in that. I'll decide on the amount later. Probably something like 2$ though because I'm dirt poor right now.I would, but I have johns that I haven't thought up yet.

Fino, I need an address to pick you up at.
Rockstar, I don't know why I've never asked this, but what's your real name.

Also, just got word back from the library they are interested and want to meet next week.
However, I did some brainstorming with Danny, and Housing remains a huge issue. If not the only issue.
So far, Danny, Blake, and I are the only one's to offer housing.
Can we get some brainstorming or additional volunteers for housing?
This would definitely make or break the logistical viability of the tournament imo
I feel like if we said "**** it, no housing for you, get a cheap motel" nobody would come.

I might do this. I'll Probably have to leave early so that I can get some sleep though.
What time are you hosting?
If It's someone I can say that I know decently I could have up to two spots. My family is kind of paranoid though so don't take it as confirmed yet.

I'll host whenever. I don't have work tomorrow anymore. But I'd prefer it be done before 5pm so I can dedicate time with other stuff. But after like 11am so I can dedicate time to sleeping lol
I have an internship meeting tomorrow at like 2:15. It shouldn't be too long. But I don't want to host much past 6 tomorrow because I don't want to overplay.
So if you came like at 11, and then went and got yourself some lunch for like 30 while I take care of my meeting, we could get a bunch of play in before 5-6

Well, since it`s not just Quote & I heading down, I don`t need to pay for all the gas, I guess. We split 4-way. Then I pay for my portion along with Quote`s.

If you're talking about a tournament in KC me and Nicole could house people in Columbia, then drive to the tournament and back home in the same day because it's only like a 2 hour drive. Not as good as in-city housing, but it still works. Of course, that only covers anyone coming from the east, which would probably just be St. Louis people. Wichita is probably close enough to just drive up the day of the tournament, right? I dunno how far NE people live away from KC, but perhaps they could house anyone from IA that might want to go. That would pretty much cover every direction.

I think he mentioned that the tourney would be 2 days, which would be unfortunate since he would lose people.

Yeah, two day tourney with no housing is pretty rough. You can't make it one day?

Smash Lord
How many housing slots do you think we need.
I also want to know if it is unusual to have guests sleep on the floor/couches/etc.

A couple things:
First for Saturday, could you guys pick me up closer to 10 than 9:30? The oven broke at my internship this morning, so I need to head in and try to get it fixed or a whole bunch of homeless people are going to be going hungry. 9am was the only time I could get because the maintanance man at the facility is going out of town for a week
Second, in terms of why it's a two day tournament:
The hours for the Lawrence Public Library, who said they are interested are 9am-6pm and 12pm -6pm Saturday and Sunday. We COULD conceivable run a tournament if we got cracking right at 9am on Saturday, but that's a lot of strain on people especially those coming from out of State. I have a meeting with the Library on either Tuesday or Thursday next week to see if I can get those hours waived, so it might not be a huge issue. I also have a venue request with a larger and more flexible venue, but i won't hear from them until 2/14.
I'd like to do a 2 day tournament. The facilities we might get are pretty good. But if we can't, it means we need housing. Right now, with the people volunteering to do housing, we have enough for about 14 (4 for me, 5 for Blake, 5 for Danny). If we co-hosted with melee, which is currently the plan, that number would go up because they seem to be willing to host Brawl players they mentioned. But I'd like to be able to at least safely figure out room for 20.

I need an answer to this.
I need to get prepped for tomorrow and I need sunlight to do that. That means I've got less than an hour to work with after drive time so I won't be dropping by today.

@Quote: When people get free housing they expect to be sleeping on the floor.

Smash Lord
Oh, well ****. In that case I might have a significant amount of room. The only catch is my parents. There are paranoid and would probably freak out about having people they've never seen before spending the night en masse. What's really crappy is that they won't put up with extra noise and what not.
@Rockstar, I'm hyped too put it costs me money to read text messages.
