After much searching, and even more stress, I’m going to be in a huge new place in Oakland. It’s a long story, but among the perks is a fantastic new HD TV and a freaking giant Sony WEGA, like 40" or something. Basically in addition to renting the loft we bought all the furniture in it too. So once we’re all moved in (which starts on the 15th), GAMES!!
There will be at least one HD:R (on 360) station and at least (EDIT) three stations for other games. I can guarantee that many b/c I own three TV’s (and at least one from Shinobi) now. I will attempt to get some more in place. This place is ginormous, so the poker table will be out too. Start about 5pm, end when the last person passes out. I’d like to get enough people to run a HD tourney, so hopefully that works out. Everyone’s invited, PM me and I’ll shoot you the address on the 15th, once I’m moved in. Hope you can make it! It’s less than a mile from the Oakland Airport BART station, and I won’t have a car for the duration of the party, but if you need to BART over I’m sure we can work something out.
Rules are easy -
No tobacco smoke inside.
Liquor is BYO, as I don’t drink and don’t stock - though there will be a small amount of booze gratis. Chaser / mixer is DEFINITELY BYO. Please feel free to bring and drink whatever you would like.
Be nice to the dog.
Shoes off at the door.
If you welsh on a money match, you’re out. Don’t bet what you don’t have.
Poker House Rule -
At any point in a player dealt game, any player involved in the hand has the right to ask for a cut of the deck at any time throughout the hand. This is done to prevent cheating. Please don’t slow the game down with this rule, this is only should you feel the need to ask for it.
Okay, that’s enough people to warrant at least an HD:R tournament. $5 entry fee. CvS2 and Marvel team tournies would be dope too if there’s interest. Tourney hopefully start sometime between 7-8, but with people going to the san jose tourney coming up 9 is the most likely time. Ideally not much later than that though.
EDIT - My place is filled up, so if you don’t already have the address I can’t really have more people over.
