MICHIGAN: (don't tell the other states)

I'll knock $5 off your venue fee, just for being michigan. All I ask is you bring your Wii's.

You heard me right: Every Michigan player with a Wii in hand will get $5 off! OMG!!!

SHHHHH, don't tell the guys driving from cincinatti and cleveland...
Thank you very much! We're trying really hard to do it, but freakin' Anther is unreachable right now >.<

$200 on commission isn't bad, I think, but you gotta keep getting commissions for it to be worthwhile.

Anther can't go. It'd be Panda, Scala, and maybe me (the guy i'm borrowing the money from doesn't even know if he can : /)

The only reason I would go is if I had a good partner. I gotta pay this guy back, so I needed SOME assurance (THRZ) that I'd make money.

We'll see by tomorrow.

Tell anther he's gotta at least come down on Sept 13th to WTON. it'll be at the same venue.

I'm moving out of the midwest like 2 weeks after that one, and I want to play his pika before I leave the region.

I'll give you the same deal if you bring a TV, scala.

Vayseth, are you going to make it then, or no?

I have no money. I'm only going if Lain/Panda spot me $$ so if Lain doesn't have enough for himself, he prolly doesn't have enough for me either =( So it's basically up to lain. Lain, you can team with Panda? I dno who else is going.

Calling me at like 10:50 pm asking if I wanted to go to MSOP (a 7 hour drive) right at that moment was probably not the best of ideas :D

I'm driving as it is now, 15 for gas (ish) 10 per tourney, 20 for venue (-10 if sleep outside, -5 if you bring wii thanks to the graciousness of Dastrn, but that 2nd discount is a secret shhh)

Not too bad really

you mean what we've been trying to figure out for the past 8 hours? ><

The venue fee costs $20, which gets us housing, dinner on friday (hog roast!), and breakfast on saturday.

However we could not eat or house there and stay in Big C's tent for free (it's a 10-12 persont tent). BUT DastrnMarco is giving MI a $5 discount (hush hush though!). I'd take the $15 deal.

Then it's $10 for each tourney (singles and doubles).

If Scala's car gets 20mpg, it'd run everyone $20 (taking into account driving to pick up and drop off people too). Howveer 30mpg would get everyone only throwing ~$14.

So if we go, bare minimum (which basically covers all your needs) will be ~$50.

SUPER CHEAP NO?!

Anther isn't going. So I need to get a good teammate to ensure I make money (i.e. I pm'ed overswarm and he said maybe) to pay the guy back LOANING me to play.

Sooo yeah.

$50 isn't a whole lot dude! In fact, this is like a super bargain compared to how much it costs to go to like... any tournament that's further then this.

Haha, well It's more like only 30-35 dollars since the venue fee is only $5 (if you sleep in the tent/bring a wii), gas 15-20, and tourney 10. That's super ultra conservatively low guestimate tho

Yeah that's if we're nazi's and don't want to sleep inside.

Basically, you can pay for how comfortable you want to be.

But hell, if I go I ain't sleeping outside. I hate tents.

I've got close to 40 confirmed, and still and handful of maybes. Plus I usually have a crowd that comes but doesn't post. We could potentially be looking at 50 people. Ya'll need to get down here!
