buns - yes

craig - just ask the coach driver AND/OR ring wills mob number (joe just posted it last page) and it sort it out with him. maybe useful to let londoners know what will says incase there is some confusion. However, im pretty confident itll be fine. There are generally only one main bus station in each city :)

I'm just turning up to the station and getting the train whenever, so I don't know exactly what time I'm getting there yet. I'll be going to Bolton station though, so I'll text someone when I get in to Manchester? Should be around 6 or 7, something like that...

Also if the offer's still good, I'll chip in for the crates?

Edit: Also, I can bring a set-up if you want, but I can't bring a TV. Let me know if you need it?

You haven't annoyed me. I just don't understand your constant need to try to do so. It is disrespectful and I don't go around saying "so and so will beat you", why do you do it to me? I think it's pointless negative behaviour that the community doesn't need. Something worthy of Chrisboi in real life.

You don't know what I can and can't do seeing as my game has changed massively since we last played so don't bother commenting or you might end up looking really foolish :/
It's not disrespectful for people to say that they think someonelse is will beat someone, just proves you haven't left a big enough impact for people to think otherwise.
Why are you trying to insult Chrisboi's attitude, this community doesn't need people who choose to randomly insult people who are doing nothing wrong. It's pointless behaviour that the community doesn't need. Something worthy of being called bullying.

I know what you can do as seeing your game hasn't changed massively since we last played so don't bother replying or playing me of you might end up looking really foolish :/

hahaha we're travelling on the same coach as london

SUP LONDON
lool Jokes, so where will we be meeting you lot, are you coming to London Victoria or getting picked up from somewherelse.

I'm really gutted, I found out not long ago that I actually could have made this, but due to the late timing, the weekend would cost like £100 and be stupid in terms of time arrangements, so I can not go. Sorry guys.

will seedings for what? u dont need them for swiss? or are u running pools =(? i thought the idea behind running swiss was that it was to avoid pools when there are to few numbers and to many players around the same level. Seeding based on prior results in the current community is ****e imo.

ive no idea what u just said. are we running swiss or not lol? ill badly argue we shud do it like lol ;). itll not take much more time than pools and be alot more accurate. i dont want to play a tournament where i only get to play a handful of good players in a tournament setting. it blows

Went to Norfolk with geeks.

I'd like to arrive today and leave on Sunday. But the times are completely open. So whenever is best for you, with a preference towards spending as much time there as possible. Gotta get my game up =).

will - yeay ^_____________________^ i did a load of reading on swiss and turns out we dont need to split into two leagues. you just run one big one and set it to 6 rounds, will generate accurate placings and be as quick as splitting into two leagues.

how many tvs we looking at btw? you have two? joe brining one? is ant brining one? lj is bringing one and im bringing 3. plus theres the one of mine at yours already....9.........^_^ awesome!
