Yea, I think part of it has to do with being bored in my room at college, and a part of it has to do with the fact that the Austin community is way smaller than Dallas'. Smaller community = close knit group. Dallas is huge, way too many people in that area to get to know.

Doubt it though.

There's a Chathering on Wednesday, bro.
Cool story, bro.

I had to do it. :p

I'll do my best to come Wednesday. I'll be shooting my RTF project that day, and one of my shots is a sunset shot. I'll try to come by for a while, though.

Probably can come by Wednesday for a few hours. Depending on when I'm free. Monday is a no go. Busy from 9 am to 12 am.

Those that rely on me for rides, try to find someone else Wednesday. Thought I'd give a heads up on that.

I don't think I'd be able to go first off.

Second, if I go, it'd only be for a couple of hours. Which I may not want to do with the way my car has been lately.

So I won't be able to give your or anyone else a ride.

Find rides! I've been gimped up since my game saturday (knee injury) and require everyone's presence for the sake of my sanity. Luckily I have been told its not ligament damage, could be a meniscus tear though ; ;

Edit:

And John, if you can give people a ride here but can't stay for very long I can give people a ride back when we wrap everything up. So you can cut out early if need be, although you know you will want to stay the whole time to snort rails of blow off a strippers ***. (i have some surprises planned!)

My apologies for asking this, but when is the proper time to inquire about possible carpools for a tournament?

I could do that Chad (to both of your suggestions). I'll see if my car is up for it.

Well it's a first come first serve basis...so pretty much whenever someone announces that they will be driving or just call a spot after the previous tournament is done.

My apologies for asking so many questions and the incredible amount of formality, but I'm kind of new to tournament preparations and such and I'm not really in touch with the Austin brawl scene outside of my little group.

So Austin tends to throw carpools together at the last minute?
And the tournament I'm trying to find a ride to is No Koast. Is inquiring now too early or late?

It's not too late. I'm just not sure if anyone from here is going to No-Koast. I think Hylian's internet is still inactive, and he would be the only person I would consider to drive up there. So, if you can find a way to contact him, that would be your best option.

Ah, okay. Thank you for your patience, but I don't really know any way to contact Hylian.
If anyone does decide to go up, has a space available, and is willing to take me along, please let me know.
Otherwise, I'll just talk to you guys once my car is repaired. ^^;

Hylian has a phone number listed on the front page. I think he was planning on traveling to Dallas and then riding to KS with them. Give him a call and ask. You may get ditched if Dallas only has one spot left, though... seniority and all that.

I would rather miss the tournament than bother someone I don't know by calling them to ask for a ride. That's disrespectful.
Thank you for the help, though. I'll just try to find a ride elsewhere.

HEYYYY YOUUU GUYYYYSSS.

So i had originally planned for start time for wednesday to be 3, or show up anytime after, but I will be moving it to 5.

Only because I took the earliest possible appointment to have my knee looked at and it's 3 on wednesday.

Of course people are more than welcome to show up whenever, but I won't be home til 4-5.

It's not disrespectful. The people who put their numbers on the front page of this thread put them there so that people in the Austin scene could contact them. So if you really need a ride, don't be afraid to call. :)

I can definitely relate.
Having three tests in the next two days sucks too. Ugh.

In reference to people needing a ride tomorrow.

My orthopedics appointment is at 3:15 at 32nd and I-35, figureing ill be done around 4-4:15, so if you would like me to pick you up on the way back to my place just call or text me to tomorrow so we can get the arrangements figured out.

If multiple people need rides it would be a big help to meet up at one place so i only have to make one stop. (assuming most of yall are on campus.)

I got a Physics study group meeting from 5-7...then I'm gonna eat...then I'll be free. From what it sounds like, I might not fit into anyone's time range.

EDIT: Personally, if not that many people are gonna turn up at the fest, then I don't wanna go. Who's all gonna be there?

2nd EDIT: Actually, I might have to ditch, cause I just noticed I have a research paper due one week from now. Need to get started on that.

Jordan and I are going to be there from 5-11. Silent Rain wants a ride, you want to go as does Charles, and Chris and Johnathon are going to show up as well. Chad of course will be there too, and he's marginally feeding us.

Yes I do need a ride, however I need someone to take me back to my back as well. :/

Should we set a meeting spot for those that need a ride? I live on Riverside but I can take the bus to campus if that's the meeting spot for those that need a ride.

Any takes? =P

WTF, one week to do a research paper? Man, Mustafa, you need to learn PROcrastination.

Just got back from my shoot. It's hot as a mofo lugging camera gear around in this weather. XD

I have class from 4-6, then I'll scarf down some food and head on over.

This is what I told myself when I had to prepare for my Psych test...2 days before my Psych test, I got owned by huge amounts of work from other classes. Gotta play it safe this time.
