"Something I feel is important is you need to learn to enjoy every moment of your development. You will always feel like you can play better and that there’s so much to learn. That never goes away. The way you relate to your playing right now is probably the same way you will feel all of your life. Embrace it. That’s you."

These were some of the most sobering words I've ever read.

I just love how it went from Scar trying to explain how people from Pittsburgh sound weird to making Rob sound a like a mentally challenged chap from either australia or england, especially because Rob's awesome and we all love him.

Alright it is that time again. Lets talk ROAD TO APEX! And by road i mean literally the road that the cars drive on. Specifically mine, and anyone else that is driving.

Cars going (to my knowledge)
-Mine
-Carnegie Matt's

People going in my car
-Taki
-Aaron
-Jacob
-Carrol
-Myself (duh)

People going in C.Matt's car
-C.matt (duh)
-I
-have
-no
-idea

Something i would like to try to provide:
--Since Ganny Matt (from this point on referred to as G.Matt) was kind enough to invite us to stay at his house during APEX. I would also like to try and get him a ride home. He will already be at his house prior to APEX, but after the event taking him in 1 of the two cars would save his dad the 5 hour trip (one way mind you) across probably the most boring stretch of road in all of Pennsylvania.

You know the drill, lets get this going peoples!

**IMPORTANT**
G.Matt's house is about 45 mins from the venue. So that means myself and C.Matt will have about 4 extra hours of driving that weekend outside of driving to NJ in the first place. Something to keep in mind for those who can drive to maybe offer to share in driving a bit.

(this is a problem for my car since i am the 1 in every 1,000 that can drive a stick, but thats ok because i did it last year and i'll do it again. Will just be asking for a bit more gas money since we won't be paying for housing.)

**ALSO**
G.Matt's parents are incredibly awesome and nice people. So we should really take G.Matt home with us and save his parents the trip.

Mind. Blown.




I will drive Matt back to Pittsburgh from Apex, so I have room for 2 people going there is we don't want to be cramped, or 3 people there if we don't actually care. I am assuming Rob will likely want to go and so will Johnny, from there I don't really know. The event starts Saturday and ends Sunday correct? I am just thinking about whether or not I need to request a day off from my real job.

Thanks Naka for getting all that out there in pretty blue text.

Other side notes:
-I'm gonna have a couple of extra beds set up so not so many will sleep on the floor.
-Bring sleeping bags/pillows if you can. I have some, but not nearly enough for all y'all.
-We'll probably have some food and stuff for everyone to eat. Give me a heads up on what's cool. Frozen pizza for the evening and fruit/doughnuts for breakfast is the current plan. Suggestions are completely welcome!

That's all I got for now, there will be enough parking in front of my house for everyone, and (IIRC) the venue has more than enough free parking as well.

^Talk to C.Matt^

**SCHEDULE**
C.Matt, the event starts friday. At least that is when melee events are. Saturday is all brawl + melee friendlies. Sunday is the top 16 or 8 for each event in melee and brawl. My plan is to go to APEX friday, then head to G.Matt's afterwards. I will be looking into if i can go up Thursday night and then APEX friday, but that doesn't seem likely at the moment.

I will try and see if i can bring my parent's air mattress for another bed to sleep on.

For those of you planning on competing the deadline for registration before the next price increase is the 17th. So get on that if you want to save a few deer (bucks[money]).

I think that's everything

I don't know if I'm going to Apex, but I'll ask if I can get that Friday off work today so I don't keep you guys waiting. Leave me in Matt's car for right now, but by the end of the day I'll for sure either be in or out.

You know, this got me thinking. Either at hope or at apex, I'd say hope since its, well, here, we should take a group pic of the Pittsburgh smash scene.

I was under the impression Gerald was going to be in Philly (I may have that totally backwards and do not wish to put words in a very large man who has a penchant for holding lifelong vendetta's mouth) for Apex.

CAN I GET AN AMEN CONFIRMATION?

I've been ****** the related videos.

The music they sneak into that show has gone under-appreciated.

Holy ****, found my favorite.

There's this new kid Donny from Butler who wants to join the crew. I think he's about Johny's age.

Johny vs. Donny
