I AM STILL LOOKING FOR POSSIBLE HOSTS FOR INTER STATERS!
Please confirm or deny whether you could host someone.
QLDers MUST NOT POST UNTIL YOU CONFIRM/DENY!!!!


On the lansmash forums, after I made an enquiry about possible places to stay near the venue, a new thread was started and I got the following suggestions.

This one is a short walk to the stadium

Eeech. After checking those out, they are reeeeally expensive.
I know Dedu is looking at hostels in the event we can't get anyone to host.

Come one everyone surely someone can host me and tcranter. I'm too poor to afford a hotel, the trip's already gonna cost like $250-$300. Surely there's someone reading this that can house 2 people.

*sigh*

Okay fellas. The housing situation is pretty critical right now.
As far as I know, DJ has agreed to host Gords, Shaya, Meteor Master and Luke_Atyeo

Dedu is supposed to be housed by King Kong (Josh)

And Tcranter + Tedeth are out in the wilderness...

I will keep on asking people for you guys, but I can make absolutely no guarantee at this point. I'm really sorry. If I had it my way, I'd host everyone in my own house regardless of how small it was, no sweat. The (embarrassing) reality is, is that a majority of the QLD smash scene are still living at home and lack the capcity to host people. I too am in the same predicament.

I am unable to provide you two guys with accomodation at this time, and I'm really sorry that this is the case. The only cheap alternative I can offer are hostels in the city for around $30 a night.

Quack.


I reckon I should cap the limit of people that can stay at 4 people for now, unless things get desperate.
To discuss later (tomorrow preferably) more.
Thing is though.
Me + Dino + 4 NSW Smashers and a car that has 5 seats = mmm :ohwell:
Might be better as 3 unless....
Will overanalyse later!!! :)

@people staying with me.
Hope yas like playing weird/random sports and stuff.
Level up ya stamina, bowling, kicking, fielding and batting in that order. :laugh:
Also, I propose Wet N Wild/White Water World OR Dreamworld depending on energy levels/weather.
Cause we can't go to Wet n Wild if its raining. We'll get wet. :(

OOh Yeah!
I smeell a good QLD vs All-star Crew battle.....

Heyo, good stuff Jesmo!
Jesmo can join the All-star (AKA NSW + Jei) crew for the crew battle.

While I can't do much about the housing issue, we should in the mean time figure out a Theme Park day for fun.

I'd much rather go on a day after the weekend, possibly Monday. I'm working full time right up until the tournament, so that's a no go, and unlike QBB, we (I) won't be at the venue til 12:00am and thus be too sleepy to do anything the day after.

So yeah, if people want it, we should decide on a theme park.

Islander Resort Hotel, really cheap and close to everything.

If you're willing to spend a little more I'd highly recommend the Watermark (not a hostel, but very cheap rates, close to everything and nice rooms/facilities)

Nah dw about it it's taken too long to organise + staying in a hotel doesn't meet my budget. Looks like... you'll have to take me off the list... Maybe next time. :(

I don't think tcranter's going either.

Sorry Vyse, but thanks for trying so hard to get us housing, you're a champ.

South of the border, west of the sun.
Basically what ted said. Sadly I couldn't book flights until accommodation was organised, and its basically passed the point where I can justify the cost. I was really, really looking forward to playing you guys (and playing with my NSW buddies <3 ) , but it looks like it'll have to wait for another day.

Sorry Meteor, it looks like our ultimate team of goodness and win wont be making an appearance this time :(

Thanks a lot to everyone who compiled accommodation info and especially Vyse. I really appreciate the effort you went to. You can stay at my place in sydney anytime :D

I vote for the theme park monday, Wet'n'Wild at the top of the list if its a scorcher,
I also vote for sizzler/pizza hut (all you can eat, you get the drift) on one of the nights with everyone there, probs saturday,
another vote goes to a smash meet/training day on the friday, someone please host.


also in regards to crews, are melee and brawl crews going to be the same people and how many are going to be in the crew?

also equipment for the tourney, is 4 TVs all there is going to be?

Vyse you can add my Wii, brawl & most importantly, melee as well to the equipment list.

Shaya had to play Cobalt's Meta Knight when we had a crew battle in Melbourne. He took it down 2 stock using his own MK.
