Good luck Curlz

Should I get a costume or not?

I didn't get an activities pass. I didn't think i'd be the person to jump up for that stuff.

My meeting with the chairman from LAnime was a success! He approves of the tournament schedule and rules. He said that he is going to give the smash tournament some kind of PRize Support from the con.

POT BONUS!!!!!

Also, if you buy an Activities Badge at the door, entry to the tournament is only $5 AND you get into the rave that night. So it sounds like a deal. (to people that seem skeptical, this won't effect the pot. The con will put up the extra $5 for the pot)

So I'm Tasol hunting again. I came across a really nice place that we could possibly have it at.

Microtel Inn & Suites Lafayette.

They have a breakfast area and a conference room that they said we could rent out. Renting out both rooms for the weekend would be $50/day-the venue fee should be able to cover that easily-and the both rooms are right across the hall from each other. The hotel offered us a great offer for hotel rooms if you reserve a room SPECIFICALLY FOR TASOL. Rooms normally go for ~$80/night, but if you reserve for Tasol, a Double Bed Room would only be $46/night.

The only thing that would pose as a problem would be for the fact that both the conference room and the breakfast room are not that big. Together they would maybe equal up to the size of the area of Dibbz that we use for tournies.

I'm looking at the weekend of July 22nd - 24th, but Jio pointed out that CEO is two weeks before and then school will be starting up shortly after.

I will be going look at more hotels and whatnot in Lafayette tomorrow as well as looking around Baton Rouge while I'm at LouisiAnime. What does Louisiana think?

I have sponsors lined up for this so you should expect POT BONUSES. PNT Lafayette, Game Over, Anime & Games, Monster Energy, and possibly PNT BlueBonnet.

Yeah, and I'll also be busy all summer with few openings. It will be hard pressed if I can find a way to go to any, but I'll see.

Don't stay in microtels! Lauren and I stayed in one the night of our wedding and it was terrible in terms of a few things. I'll post more later.

Ok now that I'm awake lol. So we get there and get our room. Good. Until we open the door. The sheets are all over the place. There is an open beer can on the desk. An apple is just chilling out in the bathroom and there is trash on the floor. Hell yes we got a new room. The new room was missing a phone which was just meh. But the biggest spit in the face was that we arranged for their complimentary shuttle service to the airport as soon as we got to the microtel. When we go to check out, we are told there is no driver in the morning (when he was scheduled?) and that we now have to pay for a cab.

**** microtel. Find somewhere else.

Apple sittin there for your enjoyment, beer already opened, sheets pulled back so you don't have to struggle trying to untuck them (I hate that). I don't know dude, sounds like they pretty much had you covered. Sucks about the shuttle though.

Curlz, the venue size would be fine unless you're counting on a **** ton of people showing up. How many folks are you counting on? If it's Last 3 numbers, forget it.

Edit: Also, make sure you have all your ducks in a row before you announce this one. One more ****up and people are gonna associate TASOL with Duke Nukem Forever.

Baton Rouge is the best place to host a larger tournament, due to there being more surrounding areas that are 'fair drives' to it.
