I would say 200 Minimum if you can get housing with someone and not go overboard with meals and extra expenses. (keeping in mind if this is only the weekend stay, It might cost you extra if you're staying more than 3 nights.)

If you're booking a hotel, then it'll probably get expensive. Around 400-500 probably. Unless you pitch in a hotel with a couple of people and not have to pay over 100 bucks a night.

I would take 500 with me just in-case there was some sort of emergency and I needed to leave earlier or whatever situation it is. But I'd consider that amount a safe deal.

Best way to get good flight deals is using the price match promotion jetstar has. Or there's also Tiger too, but its pretty unreliable and flights get canceled most of the time.

Wish I could lose some weight too, but being a sweet tooth sucks >_>.

Leisha, you don't need to lose weight you silly sausage! :-D

I have a huge sweet tooth as well, any chance you could bring some Skittles to the next tourny and we'll share them? :p

flights to brisbane are usually cheap, $60-80 one way but you need to buy early for that. unfortunately though july is a busy year as it is the winter holidays so they can get expensive quickly, like 150+.

60-80 is still fairly expensive in comparison to flying to other states though, I think that's what ted meant.

Well I ended up going on the greyhound bus.
It cost $300 for return which was good but I did not like sitting at the Brisbane bus terminal for 3 hours both ways =/

It's usually costly to book Queensland flights if you don't book well in advance due to it being a popular holiday destination.

:phone:
lol not many people go to Longreach unless you get country people visiting the stockmans hall of fame or plane people visiting the QANTAS museum or if you become a AG collage student.

Places like cairns, townsville etc get more people but when I looked those two places were cheaper.

Btw, anyone who wants to come along to the SMASH convention (so far it sounds like me ricky, ted, escro & ea?) you should book your tickets online before it closes off. Not only its cheaper, it helps us avoid the massive line of people buying tickets lol.

I'll probably grab mine soonish.

To play project M you need a wii with an NTSC brawl disc (I don't know how to play it through USB loader... I couldn't get it to work with USB loader's "ocarina" activation)

its like any other brawl code set, just replace the files in your SD card with those from the download.

So when's the next tournament/meet? I wants to play and gets Project M :D
if you havent got it before the next tourney i could get it set up for you, next tourney will probs be the weekend of the 22nd july, but this is not confirmed yet.

I find it amusing how people don't know how to google anymore in an age where basically every single electronic device ever is connected to google.

well I made a point of it because it's something i've been noticing a lot recently, it's not just that post. anyway, it's not like your only chance to do this is on your work break.

You're artosis. I think that's a SC reference but I have no idea what it means.

I will also be at SMASH, but I won't be able to do anything afterwards. Wouldn't mind some smash 64 freeplay though!

Also, is the tournament the weekend after this still happening?

Don';t worry RJ. Stuff is in the works to have a tourney in the next few weeks featuring #1 and #2 from Melbourne's melee scene.

Hopefully that happens.
