Turtles Wollongong Smash Thread [Wollongong + Hunter > Sydney]

[luke_atyeo]

umm dunno maybe 11pm? come early for smash practice though
also due to massive massive fail our pizzahuts restratunts turned into takeaway's and our sizzelers all got shut down.
I still cry myself to sleep.

 

[ComboTurtle]

jamus turns out i have to be home at midday on thursday because my family is coming to ulladulla and we're supposed to be going out for lunch sorry

 

[jamus]

Ok no worries turtle.

And guys I shotgun front seat in Stereo's car

 

[Toby.]

We need to get there with enough time to a) play some smash and b) get decent sleep.

So leaving at 7pm would be te failz.

I'll bring my mp3 radio thingo.

 

[Shaya]

How long does the train from Sydney to gong take?

If its 2 hours? I'll leave home at maybe 2pm, get there at 4, ride into the sunset and hopefully beat it so Luke has pizza waiting for us while its hopefully still sunny.

 

[ComboTurtle]

about 2 hours from central shaya

 

[planetstereo]

ok, so here is the plan as it stands at the moment....

>Shaya jumps on a train from Mascot (thats where you live right?) and gets into Wollongong 2 hours later (approx)
>we all meet at wollongong station and leave for Canberra
>2 and a half hours later we arrive in Canberra and raid luke's house.
Woot

** Easy as pi^2 **

We should leave about half an hour for whatever we might need (we'll use it trust me)
I was thinking we could get in around 7 pm so that we can get some dinner etc.

So according to this shaya should leave sydney at 2:00pm and we will leave wollongong at 4:00pm.

this is probably a no brainer but we should each bring sleeping bags and pillows etc...

This plan is by no means final and if you have any problems at all with it just speak up and we can change it.
Actually, just give me a buzz whether you like it or not so i know what you guys think....

Also, Luke i think we can just head to your house direct.

[Shaya]

stereo, I don't have your mobile number. And I don't know if you have mine either.

0425 290 330.

I'll also see if I'm manly enough to bring $10 worth of Coke, with that awesome special atm that's like 12L (6 bottles) for $10.

If one of you have an eskii and are up to buying Ice we'll be super refreshed in the most likely 40 degree heat trip there.

The Bringing of Coke would be awesome good and I think that i am in possession of an eski as well.....

 

[luke_atyeo]

lol ride into the sunset, what is this I don't even...
yeah sounds good, there's a pizza hut about 2 minutes drive from my house so we can organize something if thats what you want.

 

[Toby.]

I thought the drive from wollongong to canberra took 4 hours? Or is that from sydney?

Oh well, we'll get there eventually anyway.

Coke + Ice + eskii sounds win

 

[luke_atyeo]

its only about 3 hours, maybe a little more to get from my house in canberra to the middle of sydney (central station) by car

 

[planetstereo]

Ok, so plan seems to be a go

Dont forget guys its:
$75/5 = $15* for fuel
$15 for tourney entry
$10/5 = $2 to give to shaya for Coke (speaking of which you sure your up to lugging 12L of Coke on a 2hour train ride shaya?)
pay for your own food (unless otherwise specified)
as you might have guessed already i am a shameless chronic budgeter woot
*the reason that i am diving fuel costs by 5 is that Tkls will be riding with us on the way back and he is kindly going to pay full fare - having still owed me money from Dont Come i think this is reasonable (I love blackmail)
all of this care of yours truly

[ComboTurtle]

32$ trip go wollongong, i expect you to do us proud and bring back the trophy from canberra and stuff

 

[luke_atyeo]

how about a golden turtle for a trophy?

 

[Toby.]

If it were a golden turtle we would have no choice but to win in memory of the turtle hermit. That could be hard to organise though.

 

[S.D]

Everything Wollongong wins must be split with Hunter and vice versa

 

[jamus]

Haha thanks for the support turtle =)

 

[tkls]

umm... i am not getting a lift either way now...
will sort out money problem at the tournament
i wont screw you guys though, i feel i have some financial responsibility unless you can get someone else

Well actually that might works out well cause shaya just asked if he can bring a friend on the way there (not sure about the way back yet) .
Either way id prefer if we used the space simple cause its cheaper....

Unrelatedly, I checked the weather forecast for tomorrow and it wont be that hot, should be a nice drive down.....

stereo

 

[Shaya]

Oh, if tkls isn't going either way. That may make things a lot easier.

 

[Shaya]

And shot down. Friend is not coming, unfortunately.

 

[planetstereo]

much LOLing

And Shaya, what time is your train coming in tomorrow?

 

[Shaya]

The one I want to catch says arriving at wollongong station at 4:06pm.

 

[luke_atyeo]

so I'll expect you guys around 630-7 ish.

 

[Toby.]

Stereo, do you mind picking me up on the way? My house is on the way there, and it would allow me to still bring a TV to the tournament. Otherwise I'll just have tocatch a bus in without a TV.

 

[planetstereo]

yeah, should be ok.

Actually i was thinking, most people ive talk to reckon that its better to take picton road out to the hume hwy rather than maquarie pass so is it ok if i come and pick you up like 3:30?

 

[Toby.]

Oh ok sweet. I can give you extra petrol money if you want.

 

[ComboTurtle]

howd we all go in act? heart toby did well how about the rest of you guys?

 

[jamus]

Well the results say 10th (Im sure I came 9th cause the results were deleted when we got back to Lukes but yeh whatever it doesnt really matter)

So I was really happy with my placing and it was a huge improvement over boost 2.

Next time you should come and test out your world class pit =)

 

[luke_atyeo]

actually they werent it screwed up on the laptop cause of gay vista but when I moved it to my computer, there they were.

 

[Dedu]

finally!

someone who agrees with me on VISTA!
That OS needs serious revision...

XP all the way! <3

 

[luke_atyeo]

lol I would think everyone would agree with you, vista is the worst

 

[jamus]

Yeh I also agree vista is lame. Im glad you could still get the results.

 

[planetstereo]

Ive pretty much given up on windows completely....
