Evo North: The Midwest Championships THREAD

I will say this though…it wasn’t bad when it was still a Cyberstation, 'cuz that’s where I first met most of the MvC2 locals.

P.S. Welcome back, Rob. :tup:

I was reading the Evo East comments thread, and a theme there-in seems to be a complaining due to the lack of name badges.

Will we have “Hello My Name Is…” badges at North?

Keits: We’ve never used name badges at MWC…I think they just might have been expecting it to be like EVO Worlds or something.

Well damn looks like I may have to stay at the airport all Thursday…I cant find anyone that can get me Thursday…so looks like I will be there all damn day…

:sad:

DG, ill let you know if ill be driving up thursday.

Please let me know because as of now it doesnt look like I’ll be able to go anywhere it seems…I’m tight on cash because of having to go to Mexico and Los Angeles right after this…

Too bad this isn’t like EVO World last year, where I and mad other ppl slept in the Red Rock Lobby that thurday night before the tourney.

Dark Geese, just take a cab to the arcade. You can stay with me that Thurs night if you need a place. I’m going to be at OHare but not til around 530pm

Will do…thanks Jason appreciate it…What do you look like so I can know what you look like etc?

I can hang out a couple of hours certainly…:china:

you can’t miss jason, he’s the only white guy on the planet with the hairdo of Kabuki Quantum Fighter.

what is there to do or check out in chicago?

well, the tourny is not really in chicago if your looking to do stuff downtown.

Northbrook doesnt have much besides food and nickel city.

yeah i wanna know about chicago

I like Ed Debevics. Its a restraunt thats themed like a 50s diner, and the wait-staff is paid to be mean to you. It CAN be funny.

Otherwise, I only remember greatly enjoying Disney Quest and being atop the Sears Tower and feeling it wobble.

is there going to be tvs provided for casuals or should I bring my own if I want to set up my ps3

Dark Geese: Talk to Sabre and meet up with him before you meet up with me. He will fill you in on his plane info.

IMPORTANT STICK CHANGE: 3rd Strike might be switched to Competition Sticks…some at Nickel City do not like the sticks, so we shall see how this turns out.

Hey it doesnt look like any of us know who is running the side Melty Blood tourney or when it would be. So if its alright with everyone, i’m just gonna run it Friday around 8-9PM. I’ll be bringing the system and the game, so it won’t be a problem in that sense, and as George and many other Chi-town locals know, im pretty pro at tourney running. If this is the only one i run, then there shouldnt be an issue with one person running too many tourneys and such.

Hopefully this is OK with everyone.

PS - Thanks Mike! Good to be back. :smiley:

that diner sounds kinda retarded. but thanks though.

sears tower sounds cool. might hit that up.

if you guys are runnign side tourneys, which seems to be a lot of, i would probably recommend bringing a small tv(not a big tv that hogs space) to ensure more that you can even run your side events. just a recommendation. or go to a walmart or something, buy a cheap 21inch, then return it after tourney lolol. a lot of people do this heh.

wtf, theres an ed debevics out there? i didnt know it was actually a chain. i went there a long time ago out here in phoenix. dunno if its still around. place aint to bad at all. definitely has that 50’s vibe going like no other

geese: check pm

Im bringing my 13 inch for Melty. Not very big, but at least its an extra TV.
