This thread is for anyone in RI who wants to join us in going to APEX2. I've been in collaboration with Travis and Derrek and we've decided to start making plans.



As of right now, the cheapest hotel we've found is 58 dollars a night. I refuse to reserve it just yet, because being that its this early, the likelihood of a date change for it is quite possible.



Now, logically we are talking about five people per room, five people per car. I can drive, Derrek can drive, so thats 10 people. I wouldn't be apposed to bringing more if more people have cars and are willing to drive. the way I see it, as long as we keep it in fives, everyone will pay the same amount. 58 dollars five ways is not a lot. We will be there for two nights, thats 116 dollars. That's less that 25 dollars a person per night. Considering gas money, we are probably gonna be looking at 40 dollars per person for the hotel. 40 dollars will get you a ride and a hotel room for both nights. You can worry about venue/food/whatever your'e entering on your own.



Again, I'd like to keep this in multiples of five and if you're willing to drive you'll be provided with the gas money. Obviously with only two cars thats only 10 people. I think we can do better.



The Hotel will allow only 4, but that was no issue for ROM so I think five is enough. I have a lot of TV's I can bring so anyone who wants to go just worry about bringing a setup, I'll provide TV's. I know this is a little early, but ROM almost didn't happen for me because of ****ty planning. So lets do much better this time.



If you'd like to contact me, PM me. My AIM is Kojimafan89 so that works too.

Edit: If you'd like to join us and are not from RI, you are welcome to, but we won't be picking you up. We are all leaving from a certain address on the day so you'll have to meet us there.


Also, the 40$ per person will be paid in full BEFORE the cars are started, or you will not be coming.



People going so far:

DRIVER A: Shawn, RI :FULL:


2. OPEN
3. Joerson, RI
4. Derrek, RI
5. ZoSo, RI

DRIVER B: KevinM, RI :FULL:


2. Hailey, RI :FULL:
3. ---
4. ---
5. ---

DRIVER C: Anthony, RI


2. Zach, RI
3. Jeremy, RI
4. OPEN
5. OPEN














"Calling Shotgun Rule": Shotgun will be determined by a 1 stock pokefloats match. Otherwise, someone suck it up.


"Calling a Bed Rule": All the drivers automatically get a bed. Other bed can be shared and it will come down to rock paper scissors. Driver can share if they want but they don't have too. Everyone, bring your sleeping bag just incase.

Alright you've been added. Do you have a car Kevin? Any chance you'd want to drive as well?
Um yeah as long as I'm going I'm good for three more people from RI.

I can probably take whoever doesn't fit in your car.

Plus I can take the deposit out on the other room since I'm over 18 and I also would get a discount thanks to triple A.

In other words room with me cause its gonna be titeeee

Ok so I edited the main post to show open spots. As of right now, after this post if there is nothing more to add we should let this die and bump it when we have something new to say. Derrek won't be driving and instead our friend Anthony will be the third car if its needed. We have a bunch of open spots still, so if anyone wants to join us then feel free to bump this thread. But there is still a while for things to change so we don't need to keep this alive for the whole time.


To recap, as of today Feb 15th, there are going to be three drivers, and there are still quite a few open spots. One will probably go to Dave but he hasn't said for sure if he's going yet. So Kevin and Joerson, feel free to invite people to fill up the open spots. You both have my aim and Joerson you have my number so just let me know and I'll edit the main post if need be.


As for reserving rooms Kevin, If you want to be the main card then I'll be sure to give you the money and we'll have it deposited into your account before we check in. Lets wait to see if the venue will get us discounts or w.e like with Pound before we start reserving though. Theres still quite a bit of time.


One more thing Kevin, can I just have the names of the people who you are bringing? Not a big deal, just an OCD thing so I can edit the post v_v

Added to the list. Joerson, read the extra rules I added :p there is no "I get a bed cause i'm asian" rule in place v_v

Just so everyone knows, we now have two cars full, and 2 spots left in the other. I haven't heard from Anthony in about a week so ima get back in touch with him to make sure everything is going alright. Anyone reading this, check out this thread:

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=264950

We should all start going to these every month so that those of us that don't know each other can meet so its not like we are driving with strangers when we go :p I had a lot of fun at it. Jeremy should be posting soon with the info on the new date.

@Hayato, I think you are asking if you can join. can't really tell. but yes, you can join.


@Zeb, If you can get a ride to RI like the night before and spend the night at someones house then I have no problem with you coming.


@Xaoz, yes this is still happening.


Travis is no longer attending, so I moved Jeremy over to his spot. So right now, as a for sure, we have five people going in my car and five in KevinM's car. I'm trying to get in touch with Anthony, since I haven't spoken to him in a couple weeks just to make sure we are still on for this. So the people put in his car, don't pay for preregister or anything like that until I know for sure watsup, unless you have a backup plan. I'll keep this posted updated.

And sorry it took me so long to reply, I never subscribed to this thread cause i'm dumb v_v

I am bumping this to remind the Rhode Island players that this is still in affect, and that APEX is right around the corner.

Let's make sure we're completely prepared for this event.

I am sorry, I currently do not have the money to attend this so I would kindly ask that I be removed from this list.

This means that Kira and the Blue Wii will not make an appearance to this event, sorry all.

I would love to be a part of this. I could drive down to RI leave my car and stuff. Only problem is I would be working Friday so I wouldn't make the first day. (I would be leaving at like 4pm Friday to get there). But if i could share a hotel room that would be great.
