As some of you know, I drive to a ****load of tourneys. There are times where i can round up a few peoples to come with me, but then there are times where I don't get anyone and its lonley and the gas seems even more expensive. So, this thread is made for anyone that needs a ride to an out of town tourney that im going to, and to aleviate my gas expenses.

If i post a tourney in here that im going to, im going to be leaving from Orlando (probably HRNUT's place since hes my teammate). He lives in Coconut Palms apartments of Orlando FL, off of exit 75B coming east or 78 coming west. His exact address is in my tourney thread. The rules of the caravan are:

-I'll post all the info, including how many spots I have in my car, for a tourney thats not in Orlando that weekend. If i dont post in here, then there are no spots. Other people have priority (*********) before i open spots to the public
-If you live witin 15-20 minutes of HRNUT's house, I'll come pick you up if you really need it, although I'd prefer if you could somehow get a ride to his place
-Spots are first come, first serve basis. You can either post here for a spot, or call me @ 863-934-2355.
-Gas is pretty much 15/person at all times, unless the tourney is an hour or hour and a half away, due to rising prices and premium already being so high
-Most of the time, HRNUT can house you if you can only get a ride on Friday or something. You have to ask in advance though

-If you just happen to live on the way and its not too far off of our route, ill also come get you. You still have to pay gas though. But you only have to pay from the time it takes from your house, not HRNUT (like, if you only live an hour away from a 3 hour tourney, you pay 10/gas. If you win a tourney you automatically have to give me 15, no matter how far away you live :laugh: )


Famous Quotes of the Caravan

"Im Glad Im white" -Gmoney

"When i was a little kid i thought fruit punch was a gay boxer. He'd punch and like a cartoon or a video game all types of fruits came out like pineapple oranges and **** come out" -Lambchops

"Wait, his mom wasn't a grimer or muk?" -Rx

"How can you not like the lion king? The lion king was great. Hakunah Matata? Circle of Life? Great to be King?" "But those are all songs..." -PB&J and Col Bol, respectively

"A blowjob money match? I would play my hardest" -Fearless




Current Tourney:
10/11 Impact Clash II Atlanta, GA- http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=182916
Spots open: 2/3 if you include bitch seat
Drive: ~7hr = 25/person gas . Door fee is $20, but includes all you can eat catered food. Each tourney (doubles, singles) is $10 each.
Time: Leavig Orlando around either 7pm Friday or 2-3 AM Saturday (you guys can sleep on the way there XD)
-Its the caravan's first OOS trip. At least the tourney has both brawl and melee
-Ive already asked some people about spots and I've yet to hear from them. If they say yea, then they get the spot since i asked them first. Even with them included, I guaranteed have 1 open spot for you peoples


Post if you want 'em!

GDX, you're gay for acting like you weren't going to that tourney and then deciding to go anyways... I'd go if you can pick me up from Tavares. I'd pay for the gas to get there and still chip in. Let me know...
me and HRNUT just decided to go earlier today.

almost an hour drive? no. almost an hour drive and completely the opposite way? hell no. Sorry dude, its just too far.

ppsh... That monkey is gonna get destroyed due to bad karma... :urg: called it
sorry man. coming to get you would add on almost 3.5-4 hours of extra driving total (going to and from your house to HRNUT, twice.) Thats why i limited it to 15 or so minutes away, so its an hour total

ffcc reference FTW!!!!

I loved that game for gamecube. Way to expensive to play 4 players.

Still the most fun I have had with my brother since Kriby Superstar

if you have all the equipment for each player "gba to GC cable, GBA preferrably SP cause of the backlight", then FF:CC is probably the most fun 4-player game i've ever played. If i ever had a crapload of extra money to blow, i'd consider buying the stuf for 4 people to play

Legend of Zelda: 4 swords is a close 2nd for badass 4p games. Now i gotta go get 4 SP's and 4 GC to GBA cables over time to play these two games. no offense nick, but FF:CC and 4 swords > gauntlet legends

wait, you have two gameboy SPs? or two old school gameboy and a gameboy SP? cause if they're any gameboy not the GBA or GBA SP, they wont work

If i win any of the tourneys this weekend, we're going hunting for GBA to GC cables

I have a GBA and a connector. Why I have a connector I don't know but I have one. Maybe I bought it for animal crossing?

I dunno if I can make it to Gamebreaker if GDX can't ride me through.

I honestly am not sure if I want to team with a DK. I always feel so responsible.

I am looking to team with an MK or a Snake :/.

Nothing against you, just a major character preference.

Come to think of it, is Chops going and just not entering doubles because of money issues?

If so, I'll hire him for doubles.

GDX, you should know where to get me, same place as last time (McDonalds)

It's exit 191 of I-95, in case you forgot.



Also, to Fearless, gas is usually $15 a person. Since it's a drive to Miami, and gas is $4 a gallon. Plus the tolls.

If there were 5 people in the car and everyone only put $10 towards gas/tolls, it wouldn't really cover it :(.

If $15 seems like too much to you, I can show you the math.
