thanks a lot for the help.
Its the MacQarrie Hall.

When you get in... go up the 1st flight stairs... and go to the room farthest to the left, in the corner . The Smash music will help you out.

Normally teams should start at 12 and singles at 2... but you never know...

I think like the notion of doing Crew-Anythings sound like absolute fun. We should do something like this, be they Draft Crews =D, or Team Crews. Sounds too good!

Oh and I noticed Lunin's looking for $MMes again. Sir? Care to Dance?

We did a draft crew before. It was me and Karthik. We drafted beforehand so several of my better players ended up not showing up. Still, though, it seemed like a good time was had by all involved.

The best thing for every crew battle is hype. I say we get a list of people who are willing to show up at 10AM, and then create something from that pool of players.

I really hate to ask this because I love it when people agree with me, but....Hyuga what did you agree with that I said? Was it my objections?

Hmm...yeah that sounds like a good idea, but the thread would get kind of cluttered (even moreso, cuz if I leave for like 3 hours then we have like 2 more pages :psycho: haha). I'm not sure exactly how that would work, you could pick like 11-15 people and have alternates if people don't show up, that's the probably the only way it could be done.

last time when we had the draft crew battle like 3 people from our team (myself included) didn't get to play due to the fact that people from the other team didn't show up, thus making the teams quite lopsided. lunin was mopping the floor with a few people. i think drafting should be done during the "after teams but before singles" period since more people will be there by then, therefore eliminating the need for alternates. and i hope whoever the captains are know how to perform a fair draft.

i'd also like to see a draft crew vs. DBR... that would be nice.

Drafting beforehand has already proven that it's flawed.

I would have to say that let two captains be decided on the floor at 10AM. The best way to do it is with the top two players (King, Spectre, LunIn, Isai, etc), and have them draft on the spot with the players on the floor. Have drafting go from 10AM to 10:30AM, and make both captains ready before 10:45AM, and start immediately.

That'll be the best way so it doesn't get lopsided. Have fun guys.

hah, it is actually a good idea to have the team captains equal in skill due to the average skill level possibly being lopsided. Usually for finals & semifinals, its the people that DON'T LEAVE RIGHT AWAY...(Foxroar, king, jeff, isai, zel, germ, bob). So we can do the crew battle before finals & semifinals.

Lets start drafting right after teams & at singles signups. I say King & I get captains, or Sheridan & BTZO, or Scamp & Boh Back. :) Boh Back...hahaha

Playing as a group makes the whole tournament Much much better, its like playing tag in 3rd grade with your whole class.......it was never fun with just the 5 person group.

And if you're going to make a crew against DBR, fight SF Asians as well.

It's about a ten block hike, or about half an hour.

The 17 takes a while. If I remember correctly, it's like an hour from the metro station in santa cruz. Then you end up at the train station, and it's like a 20 minute walk from there to the university. I'm not really sure though. I'm sure there's a bus schedule on the internet, cuz you'd definitely need to plan it out to get there on time.

For captains it doesn't really bother me, but it's better to have the people at equal or really close skill level for captains like you said. All this is coo with me but last time it was fun cuz we had chatrooms discussing strategies and sh*t, but w/e.

Definitely 10 man crew battles, it's alot more fun like that. Maybe I'll get to play this time too :ohwell:

how about SF asians vs DBR? i haven't seen it yet. i heard about it during one of the biweeklies (i forgot which one) and i never really found out who won. i didn't even see the stockton guys in the crew battles, either. well, hopefully they'll be there to participate and stuff. i smell lots of crew battles for this saturday.

How simple is it to tarvel to Fremont Bart station? Should I take AC Commute or Amtrak from there to get to San Jose?

U mean to travel from Fremont BART station? (cuz why would u wanna go to Fremont BART station?)

Well I'm gonna assume you're asking how to get to SJSU from fremont BART. Just take the 180 bus all the way to the San Jose train station near the HP pavilion. It's like an hour long ride. Then you have like a 20 min walk to get to the university if none of the other buses are coming.
