lol ok but they're not that great. I'll give them to you for free cuz my red controller broke and I have no need for them. Plus it's a cruddy paint job compared to what I can do now.

Yeah I got the screwdriver recently.

I'll come over tomorrow if you want...

Yooo, when and where do you guys get together for smashfests? I want to stop by for melee or brawl, cause southern 805 doesn't do anything and Im close enough to the border with mid 805. I'd really like to go if you guys are doing something tomorrow too.

We go to Junk's apt randomly to play and gather there to go to tournaments for the most part.
Its near UCSB.
The next tournament we are going to is Sunday at UCLA.
Bother Junk on AIM until he gives you more information

People should play more Wario. Honestly if he wasn't there I probably wouldn't play brawl. He plays very well, happens to be the most fun character to play, and also my personal favorite Nintendo character.
Also Jose and his stupids decided to play melee in one of the rooms I was in, I miss melee :(
Ill totally play it next smash fest I go too. I must be proficient in both! also I still didn't lose to Jose and his stupids.

BIO Housing/Rides/Plan

Before I start, I will say this trip/tournament is NOT cheap. It's a big *** tournament that's far away. Imagine the people trying to save up pennies from the EC for Genesis.

Keep in mind food costs (some people can get away with less but to be safe I'm saying $30 for friday night/sat/sun) and entry fee ($25 for doubles/singles per person, add $7 if you do crews) and any MM's you have.

Housing
From what I see NorCal is not stepping it up at all for housing... has one house been offered? If anyone from NorCal reads this please try to be as nice as SoCal has been for you guys.

Anyways since it's the tuesday before the tournament, as far as housing goes for SoCal, our likely option is a hotel room.

2 Queen beds - $79
<1 mile away from the venue
$79 split maximum 5 people per room (to be safe I'll just say $20/night per person)

That's pretty expensive but not nearly as much as the original price ($150). It also leaves someone on the ground unless 3 people want to be in one bed.

Of course we could try to fit more people in the room so the price is lower... but that would be between us. I can't imagine more than 7 people in a hotel room though (that would drive down costs to about $14/night).

Bottom Line: Who from SoCal would be willing to pay $14-$20 a night for 2 nights? If I get enough people to fill a room than we will. Obviously if we find housing then we will stay there.


Rides
I live in Santa Barbara. WarpStatus lives in San Luis Obispo. Both are pretty much CenCal but we both can offer driving. I have space for 4-5 in my car. Warp has space for 4-5 also. My car can have a smash tv along the way if it's only 4.

I imagine for the whole weekend gas is going to be around $50 so that's $10-$13 per person.

The only problem is anyone that wants a seat in the car somehow has to get to where we live or to a train/bus station near by. I will pick you up but I'm not going the opposite direction of BIO when we're already so far away.

So far the seats are as follows:
JunkInTheTrunk's Car (0-1 spaces open) - Bardull, Oki, Samuelson
WarpStatus' Car (1-2 spaces open) - Gishnak, Dantarion


The people that have already asked get first priority (if they still decide to come with us).

Bottom Line: SB/SLO is offering rides... but you have to get here somehow. The distance from most of SoCal to SB is 2 hours, and it's another 1.5 hours north for SLO.

Itinerary
Friday - Leave ASAP (aka whenever everyone gets here) for NorCal. Ideally like noon but realistically probably around 3-4pm. Stay at the hotel or housing if we miraculously. Warp's car will probably take a break at his house first. I'm only stopping for gas/piss/food.

Saturday - Get to sleep in because we're so close to the venue. **** pools. Go back home. Go back to the hotel for more smash obviously.

Sunday - Go to the tournament. Hopefully it ends early because we will absolutely try to drive back this day. The only reason we wouldn't drive is it's because it's 3am and it would be completely unsafe for anyone to drive. Feel free to stay at my place in SB if you need to sleep before going all the way back to SoCal.

Total Costs:
Without Housing - ~$110
With Housing - ~$70
*Note: This does not include the gas price to get to SB/SLO.

So, I stayed up late last night doing hw so I could go to BIO. I overslept, and my mom got mad and said I can't go to BIO. WTF.

I think I can convince her, but yeah, I might not be able to go.

I hear ya, man. I have to go through the same BS every time I wanna go to a tournament as well. I always have to explain to my mom where I'm going, when I'm going, whom I'm going with, when I'll be back, then she makes me do a bunch of chores before I go, or pretty much anything else she wants me to do, just because she knows I'll do 'em, cuz she has leverage over me. :laugh::laugh:

But it's worth it. :)

Yeah dude, let's do this. Invite some of your melee contacts, since your my "melee hookup" lol. :]
Dante's not coming either? Silly Melee kids.
It's pointless for me to come. I suck *** at brawl and it's really far away, plus there's SCSA next week. (assuming jun goes to that and is willing to take me)

If I went I'd be craving melee the whole time and I'd get *****. Pointless (for me).
