I just realized how many of the new players are like 16ish years old. It's so weird to hear people saying they can't go because they have no ride or something. Lol, those were the days..

LoL! :chuckle:That post is made of win.

Then I'm going to give up. Not that it's in my nature to do so, but I'm not gonna pry if it was that bad.
It was street racing.

Tip: if you decide to invest all your money into a fast car and drive it at stupid speeds illegally, don't.

We were already planning on having a tourney for Brawl right when it comes out at The Cave, also toying with the idea of having an all night lock-in the saturday that it comes out. Would anyone be interested in that. For our lock-ins we charge $20, its all the gaming you can get in from 9 or 10 pm to 9 or 10 am the next morning the price also includes some pizza and pop, I'll give more details if I get enough people interested.. We currently have 1 Wii, thinking we need another one soon. Plus if anyone esle wants to bring one, plus we still have SSBM and xbox360 and comps people can chill on for the night.

We are located about 1hr west of chicago. if you guys are interested let me know so I can work on the logistics.

Could be cool. Mayhaps you and I can work some thing out in regards to a set up.

Question: After the lockin, will you be open during the day?

Cause it might be better to have the tourney during the day?

Would it be a friday going to into saturday?

That sounds good. I'm not so sure on the tourney right off the bat. A lot of people are going to want to spend the time to start unlocking everything/get familiar with the game. Now I'm not saying a lock-in wouldn't be bad, and with some pizza, even better [I'm assuming due to youngins there will be no byob] so i guess it's up to the general consensus. I'm more interested in knowing if the Cave will be selling copies of brawl, since you sell other games as well. If so, I'd like to reserve one here instead of somewhere else and that pretty much implies that I'd be in for the lock-in. And i could certainly bring a Wii. Otherwise I'm going to have to reserve it locally and most likely go home and not sleep for a week.

The lock-in sounds pretty tight, but I'm not sure about having a tourney so soon after launch. I'd rather spend time unlocking stuff and getting used to the new game (as well as seeing if it's tourney material).
