Yes it's in melbourne and across the street from ACL tourney. Tiger flights should be somewhere from 60-80 return and the hotel should cost $120 a night and we can fit 4 in the room. i know black shadow and i are going if we can get other people in the room with us.

EDIT: **** just realized there is no vacancy on the 9th

Well I usually just get a Taxi to and from in other cities, and imo anywhere from like 5 to 10 mins drive is ok.
I'm unsure of how far the venue is from the airport (as it's not at the usual place Melb has them).

I don't mind taking a taxi either. It's a 20 min drive from the airport according to the ACL op. We really should have an ACL meeting and plan the trip together because for me it's necessary for this to be as cost effective as possible. and it would also be more fun.

Well if you have MSN you should add me/Apollo & Grim to help sort something out.
Or I can just meet with people whenever suits them, I'm not fussed as my work shifts are only like 10 hours a week atm lul.

Edit: And as far as I know Mason is staying with Timic or Splice.
I cbf with housing though unless I'm promised sex because I hate rules.
idk derp raah bleosl.

Grim do you know where you are staying in melbourne? I still need to work out a place to stay but if there is a age thing i can help if i end up going. hopefully nova can just go as well
I'm staying at Timic's house, sorry :c

If you could help out, that'd be great. Basically, we'd just need to have the same return flight and you'd have to sign something for me (I'm exactly 42 days away from being old enough to not need one >_>).

My MSN is masonspangler@hotmail.com if you want to add me.

We should probably have an ACL meet, only involving the people that might go to ACL.
Which is like, 2 Melee players (you and Grim) and 2 Brawl players (me and Apollo).
This would be good. See if Blackshadow can come as well, Eric.

Who's house should we do it at? (Apollo IMO =D)

Just emailed blackshadow (Marc) but i think he is pretty much confirmed. We can have the meet at my house if it's convenient for everyone. I live on the corner of South road and Anzac hw. which is like 5 min drive from street geek. just thinking if we could get a 4 person room for a night in melbourne with me, marc, NOVA and apollo (sorry i don't know your first name :( ) but we can figure it all out this week.

EDIT: I'm and idiot

Id go to Acl if I had the money. Dam work not giving me any shifts and dam bills.

I got homebrew channel now on my wii but cant figure out how to do anything with it yet as im a noob with it. If anyone can give some help with getting replay hacks, texture hacks etc or point me to a guide that I can understand.

Sorry I thought your name was also Dave :( good news is that blackshadow is 100% going. which means that i am 100% going even if it means sleeping somewhere really inconvenient.

I was originally ambivalent in going the first place because I hadn't found any proper housing (thanks to deciding on it pretty late). However if this plan on hotel accommodation goes ahead then I am more than happy to participate and reconsider options. Message me about our possible plans at the Parkside Inn pressokman and we can organise transport and costs together. Is this just one night?

We should definitely have a meet, and then afterwards go out on the night if marc's also over the legal age =D

THAT REMINDS ME though, I'll definitely be hitting up the Crown again in Melb. <3
Last time I went half the place was closed due to a storm. </3

I'm reconsidering if I should go to ALC or not. Right now i'm about 50% sure that I can go. It would help if I could go with someone because *sigh* my mum isn't going to let me go interstate for the first time by myself.

Sorry Shaun, I think I know most peoples names now.

@ Apollo, yes blackshadow is of age. The amount I spend is the amount I can make in money matches XD

What do you guys think about having this meeting tomorrow? Does my place work for everybody?

Sex

If everyone else is going I might just be able to scrape up enough funds but as Eagle said about how much?

Any help with my last post or are you all gonna be douche's and ignore me? :glare:

Eagle, ethnic people do well at gambling.
So yes.
And I ****ing hate that show more than anyone else.

Ok, prices for some people.
Basically, if you leave when I'm probably going to which is SATURDAY MORNING that is a $59 flight through Tiger Airways.
Then, the flight I get RETURN is on a Sunday, probably late morning or early afternoon, cheapest this flight will be is $59, but it could be $119 to $149.

Which is $200, roughly, I don't mind pitching in a little more or paying for accommodation if we can get like 5 people going, or so.
So, you'd need money for flights, and I'll pay Taxi fares so if people come with me travel won't cost anything besides flights.

SO YOU WOULD NEED $300.
$200 to cover flights, $100 for random stuff like food and drinks + venue fee and crap.

I will be taking similar times to Nova, but I will be flying with Qantas.

Yeah around $300 sounds about right.

Apollo is talking about some smallish meet tomorrow.

Jamage has that thing this weekend, which I'm assuming some people will use to get cocurrent flights and what not.
But if anyone wants to work things out earlier, which is easier for me, because the later I am able to book stuff, the less likely I am to be bothered which will probably stuff a few people up.

So, if anyone who doesn't have school wants to meet up, either to play smash (whatever game I don't care) or to have me help them book stuff, I'll be happy to.

Okay. I'm very interested.

The main reason I want to go is to go to on a plane. ****, I haven't been on a plane for So. Damn. Long. I <3 planes.

I might have the funds but have little organisation skills. So Nova, help me out.

You wound me, Mason. No smiley faces or anything. I can only take offence.

Besides, I'm confident I can beat everyone of your characters.
Except Meta*** and apparently you now have a good Puff. ;)

Also, last minute booking will cost more won't it? >_<

Okay. Well, the reason why I say this is because I like using DK and obviously MK ****s all over DK. My Fox didn't do too bad against you last meet. Do you remember?

And with the Jigglypuff, I never had too much of an issue before. It's just I keep hearing stuff now and I have yet to play your Puff as of recent. But I'm sure you resort to some lame tactic. ;)
