Buffalo, NY- We drink tears as liquid refreshment

haha no I’m not sayin that. look at nuni, he was down with us but he rarely posts in here. you left town and you still post frequently
so I’m sayin that I like that about you.

lol Jug’s crisis management skills are so elite. I’m jealous.

For those of you interested in the tekken results:

Game night might be dicey this week at my crib, but I will try to resolve my obligations early in the week and move some shit around, just lettin you know it might not happen at my place thursday.

I too love how Tony G stays in contact! <3

Well i miss you guys just as much as i miss my hometown friends. We’re all tight.
I did finally find some people who are gathering about 40 minutes from my school, going to go check it out. Hopefully they’re all way better than me. I don’t want to get there and be busting skulls, I want to get better, not turn into their version of Jug and Jeff and rape all day. :stuck_out_tongue: We shall see.

Oh, and im going to a tournament in Lowell, MA. There i don’t mind busting skulls. I want my turn to get paid.

If you wind up being better than them, that’s a potential opportunity as well, depending on how they take it. You’re pretty laid back so I imagine it’d be hard to stay mad about losses lol. Anyway you should be able to offer advice and tips for them to improve if that’s the case, I’ve talked with you about the game and you’re on the right track. So if it’s a situation where you wind up beating them, try and run with your role as a mentor and teacher, that can also help you tighten up your technical game if you play your cards right.

And yes I also hope you crack heads at the actual tourney, lol. Make that money.

whats up with SRK and switching styles, colors and formats as well as being glitchy as fuck every damn day? Using vb code and designing a message board isn’t rocket science…

So, how bout them Canadians? There really good at hockey, eh?

Dudes.

I want to book das EVO hotel soon. I want a headcount of everyone who will be there for sure. No maybes, only fo sho’s. So far I know my buddy from Jacksonville, Brian+Brian, Kyle, and Phil have expressed interest and definitely want to go. Evidently the evo discount rate is on the deluxe rooms…I didn’t know that, and when I priced it out separately I went with the crappy room. The deluxe rooms do look pretty baller…and i totally wanna do vegas in style. Cost isn’t bad especially if we split with 555 dudes. So hotel rate would be about 170 per night if I booked for 2 people, or 195 if I booked for 4. I don’t know if that would get us extra pullout sleeping shit or what, so I’ll leave that decision to someone who has done more travel than I have.

So, to give some solid numbers for you guys, with room booked for 2 people (lolol)

Cheapo room: $825.00+taxes and fees…around $924 for 6 nights
Baller room: ~$894.00+taxes and fees…around $1000 for 6 nights

Most of you will probably stay Thurs-Mon…so here is the breakdown.

Cheapo room: $625+taxes and fees…around $700 for 4 nights
Baller room: ~$596+taxes and fees…around $667 for 4 nights

Well, to be honest with you, I didn’t do the math beforehand and just saw it was cheaper for my intended stay hahaha, so I guess evo discount is the way to go.

(I plan on staying Tuesday thru Monday…I am going out there with my current and soon to be former assistant manager for Tuesday and Wednesday evening)

Regardless, if we split the cost of hotel is like 150 max per person…if we have 4.4 people, which we wont.

Not bad IMO, give me the word and ill try to book soon…evidently weekend rooms keep selling out so mr wizard keeps getting more.

Kesler’s goal to put them up 2 at the end was AWESOME…I seriously yelled ‘OH SHIT’ and my mom came in my room to see if I was dead. So much heart

Also remember to pre-register on the evo site.

good luck at evo, i def cant go at all… the only thing i hate about this job. u have to be a there a year first then u can get ur vacation time.

yeah that doesn’t sound bad, i plan on flying down on weds and leaving monday so thats 5 days for me. my bro will also be staying with us so thats one more person and jon the don expressed that he wanted to go. i think we should try to book this shit before the end of the month

about evo-

I am down with whatever, I will pay whatever. Since I am that rare gamer who is capable of saving money and planning ahead, I can afford whatever is needed :slight_smile:

My plan is to get there thursday afternoon and leave monday or tuesday, doesn’t really matter. Staying at the venue would be beneficial for all of us. Also if for some reason if we need more ppl, I can invite any number of ppl to stay with us. But would rather make it the Buffalo lair, so if we end up killing a hooker by ‘mistake’ we can keep the secret in house…

-B

my bro is gonna stay with us, i hope thats ok. but yeah im down for whatever, i’ll prolly fly down either late tuesday or early weds. id like atleast 1-2 days to just have fun in vegas and not worry about evo.

also is anyone in our crew good with photoshop or know someone who is. i want some new artwork for my stick but i suck at photoshop

Depends on what you need done, let me know. I’ve used it mostly for photo retouching and color work, but I should be able to pull something off easy enough.

I like this idea. As Kyle said, I am indeed going to EVO. Just let me know when you start planning for it so I can get my money together.

i’ll send you some pics and ideas

i like this style,

and the karen on the right with this,

http://i407.photobucket.com/albums/pp152/kyo45/cody17-3.jpg

changing the color of the backround of the stgick to blue and black instead of red and black. or something sweet with this,

u should try to Guts in the bottom of the stick maybe??

lmao get the fuck outta here with that haha. But yeah if it’s something simple like character portraits on a background, maybe sometime this weekend I can put something together. Definitely not in the next couple days, I’m in wtfdeadlines mode right now at school. If you want to keep busy in the meantime, find more Abel/Cody pics you might like, lack of an IGN watermark is always convenient lol.

Also do you want your name on the stick? If you have a particular font you want, you can send me the file over AIM or something this weekend. Otherwise I’ll try a bunch of different ones and let you pick.

that sounds kool, thanks man, also i think there are some te stick templats out there that might help.

hey celes went to this used game store today and they have a bunch of arcade machines for sale, most are crappy or not in good condition but there were a few that looked ok. there is a tekken 3 cab for 300, a sega naomi cab, not sure how much he wanted and there was one i really wanted, a saturday night slam master cab but again no price. i know the owner so i had the clerk tell him to call me and i will see whats up
