Me and a buddy of mine were gonna play Melee in my apartment this Saturday (Nov. 6th), when he happened across the Hax combo video. At which point he called me and insisted that we invite as many people as possible to play.

So, here's an invite to anyone in the area to come by Saturday. Anytime's good and there's plenty of floorspace to sleep on. Only rule is you have to leave Sunday morning (much studying to do).

BYOC, BYOB, BYOG etc etc.

Roommate willing, we'll have 2 TVs, so I think we'll need maybe one more?

807 Lucinda Ave. Apt 14
Dekalb, IL 60115

(847) 668-6489

There's free weekend visitor parking on Carroll Ave (doesn't have an actual address, but it's off Rt. 38), and it's a short walk to my place from there.

Before 4pm, text me for anything you need/need to know; after 4, call or text.

I'm busy this saturday, but I am only like 30 minutes away, in Geneva IL. You guys should come out here if you ever have the chance as well. We usually get like 5 people for Melee on an average night.

Next time I'll be in that area is probably Thanksgiving. However, I'm gonna be spending a lot of my time at my buddy's place in Antioch with 3-4 other Smashers; I'll see if you can't come along. ;)

Well, my buddy's dad lives there and he's housesitting for Thanksgiving. I personally don't know anyone that lives there; everyone else is coming from around the 'burbs.

November 19th-28th will be full of smash in Antioch at my place. Anyone welcome that:
A. Plans on not trashing my house as there will not be a party, just smashing/LANing
B. Can play Smash WELL-not to be a snob, but i'm sick of baddies getting my hopes up for a challenge

Antioch is cool and all but really, lets get back to the dekalb thing. I've already got my cube and tv in the car people.

It really depends on everyone's work/school schedules. But yes, on any given night where we smash, there are 5 people at least. It has been seeming like weekends and Tuesday/Wednesday have been the most likely.

very cool, I'll have to keep that in mind. I think at one point my pal Russ got in contact with you here and we've been meaning to drop by. Also, what are the odds some of these other 5 or so people who you smash with could come to dekalb...you're busy, but maybe you could put one/some of them in contact with Virsath or myself?

Is there WiFi i could use? I forgot that the Chicago-Land Power Ranking Skype Chat is going on wednesday night at 9pm, so I gotta be there to run that shiz. Should only take like 30 min, if that.

I was thinking geneva as well till I found out adam can't stay for too long. I think it'd just be easier, at least for his sake, to do your place.

thoughts?

Tomorrow. Hoefler's got **** to do and wont be around forever, so it'd probably be best if we all gather where he's heading...and that's dekalb. He should be in town at about 6 so...barring any complaints Virsath has, I'd say try to get there right around then.

I wanted to say this: I have an exam Thursday morning and I'm gonna get off my computer and study until 6 tomorrow.

HOWEVER! If I feel I don't have enough time to study I'll post by 3 tomorrow calling it off. Just check it before you guys all head out. Knowing me, even if I'm not totally prepared, I'll just say "**** it, come over".
