Columbia, MO - GGXX, ST, 3S etc

omg Slash Bridget is finally making some goddamned sense to me. AFTER ALL THESE YEARS…

:looney: seems like an appropriate repsonse

it’s like loop the loop, with eyes instead of yo-yos and also it’s not your ass on block

By the way I’m not going to go to Midwest.

WHAT!!! :sad: what happened???

Damn, Idk how I’ll get there

I think even if I’d still planned on going we would have had that problem… I found out last night that we had no way to get to the train station in St. Louis.

If you end up taking the train I think I still have a friend who can get you at the station. Call me and I’ll tell you the details.

There goes my train ticket…

Of course, if you can still snag one for me (unlikely at this point, I know) and give me directions, I could take you. Of course, this would happen only if the AKA Express stays grounded…

Drew - That’s actually why I’m not going, in addition to my ride to STL falling through my contact there decided not to bother, so I couldn’t get the tickets…

There may be a way to get tickets at the station, someone can look up the station’s number on Amtrak’s site and call. I can probably still get you guys a ride from the station in Chicago to the Red Roof. I’d even be willing to kick in some money to make up for the setback since that’s one less way to split the hotel… but I’m staying home this weekend.

I just got off the phone with Martin- he can’t make it either. Can’t take married men anywhere lol.

I knew I should have bought that plane ticket last month…

Sorry about my transportation plans falling through guys. I barely managed to get into Bernard’s rented car here in STL. He’s got 6 people going in it for sure, which is me, him, Ryan (Tekken), Jody (Tekken), Steve, and Rob. I tried really hard to pull through for some spots for you guys, but it just wasn’t happening. I appreciate the commitment from you guys, despite the problems on my end.

Peace.

Greyhound tickets still available…

As for Amtrak… there is an option on the site allowing you to pick up tickets at the window. If someone else were to go to the St. Louis station, we’d have to split up, since there’s one coach and one business class left (unless you want a bedroom lol)

I’m fuckin skateboarding there man!:rock:

Hey, if you wanna go to MWC ( paul, jarren ) tell me if you have any plans. We COULD catch a greyhound tonight that leaves at 11:00PM from COLUMBIA and goes straight to Chicago.
I hope that this works out cause I really still wanna go. Its 150 bucks round trip. It is Thursday night and we’ll be there pretty early on friday, and its fuckin 9 hours drive, but thats only 2 hours more than it would be in a car, so its not that bad, and its CHEAP. But I’m thinkin we could check in to the red roof in if we all chip in some money.

I’m gonna try my hardest to be there.

Good luck to whoever’s going. If I knew about the Greyhound, I would have joined, but it looks like I’m going to have to sit this one out.

Next week’s a three-day weekend for me, so hopefully I’ll get to play you guys again, perhaps hear about all the assbeatings you handed out (or received).

lol no one ended up going.

I must subconsciously love getting roundhouse slide instead of EX upper if tonight was any indication

Can anybody make it to a round robin or something next Friday night

Shekeib, I heard you might be going to Texas Showdown? Do you know anything about the hotel situation over there? If there’s a way and the plane ticket’s not too expensive I’d sort of like to go. I didn’t realize they had ST in the lineup, that changes everything. Also I might enter A3 just to get annihilated and watch the pretty characters and backgrounds.

I am really, really liking ST, and on acount of the world revolving around me you guys should play it more. I sort of want to get my hands on the board since it gets so expensive to play on the regular, but I don’t think two-player on my sitdown cab is all that realistic. Josh, do you have any cabinets you’re looking to sell?

Edit: Looks like $205 can take you to Houston and back from St. Louis and it’s only a pinch more to leave from Kansas City. The hotel is supposed to be really cheap, like $40 a night. Who wants to go? I want to talk Columbia vet Jon into going, it looks like it’s a three hour drive from Austin to Houston.

I’ll go. I would much rather go to TS6 than anything else exept evo. I’m most definately looking to go on plane. The hotel I’d like to stay in is Red Carpet just cause it seems like everyone is going to be in that hotel (CASUALS!!!). We should definatly plan this out way ahead of time so we know who’s going and who isn’t.

Things we need.

  • A ride from the Airport to the Hotel
  • A ride form the Hotel to the University and Planet Zero Gaming

I know paul’s interested, but gotta say he made the worst face when I said $200 for the flight. Andrew, do you have any idea when TiT is? I’d like to go see Jon if I’m able to, but I know I can’t in March with teaching & school.

Shekeib: I’m trying to talk Jon into going, he may be able to drive us around Houston if we treat him right.

I spoke to Josh on the phone and he seemed really interested in attending but didn’t want to pay through the nose to fly (I don’t blame him). Me, I take like any excuse I can get to fly, I’d fly to Gunther’s if it were possible. I’d fly from Gunther’s to Jimmy John’s. Anyway. Is it just me and Shekeib flying?

Monique: I don’t know when TiT is. The important thing to remember about school is that video games are more important.
