Team Canada @ EVO World 2009

I nominate Moe Powell for HDR.

I plan on buying a huge Canadian Flag (maybe aroudn 1m x 1.5m?) and bringing it down. It’ll be hard to fly with a big flag pole (or budget it with a broom stick) so i’ll have to pick one of those up in Vegas.

Everyone will know about Team Canada at EVO!!!

I’d like to play for a spot just to gauge my level.

PS. Is Japan a part of this “international” team?

I’m going! How is team Canada going to be set-up, and also, am I elligible? I’m English, but I live in Caada.

parerick, i’ll go wid u too, i called u and left u a voicemail, i got the money man, i’ll reach.

I’m going. I’ll see you all there.

who u going with and what games will you participating in?

I’m going solo and I pre-regged for SF4/STHD.

I can get weed in vegas and in California
so im in… if i have the money

I can’t believe psychochronic is going. Oh well I don’t know how he did it but he did. If all the Canadians are go to Las Vegas for EVO 2009, when is TX going to be or you are not going to have a TX?

This is weird because Nagata Lock II or Justin always makes a thread for TX before anything else. Looks like we won’t have TX. Oh well I could come to Toronto for other things except for TX. Anyways let me know if you will have TX or not. Looks like the Johnsons will be part of EVO 2009 instead of TX. See ya later amigos!!

k
so i’m rooming with nagata and just booked the room + flights:

(vegas time)

Checking in on the 15th at 11pm
Checking out on the 20th at 11am

see you fools there!!!

As Jay Wang posted, I’m now confirmed to attend EVO as well.

I’ll be entering SFIV singles only. I doubt I’ll be in attendance at EVO on Friday.

So you will be having TX and EVO 2009 at the same time in Las Vegas or are you going to have TX in August sometime in Toronto?

What time are you going and are you staying for the whole event? I’ll be staying for a week if I’m going there. I’ve been working hard at my job all this time and I’m going no matter what.

I might change my mind if I can’t go or not. Anyways you’re the Godfather of Toronto so let me know if you’re going to have TX. Thanks and peace amigos!! See ya there.

Just a heads up, I know the official schedule hasn’t been posted yet, but I remember MrWizard saying a few times that there would be SF4 on Friday, probably fairly early. So you’ll probably want to be there on Friday. :wink:

Jay Wang and Nagata; Just curious, how much did it cost and where did you bought your tickets? I’ll try to get montreal at evo so any info will be appreciated. Thx.

Personally not booked my flight yet, but I think they go from $300 to ‘here, please take my home’. Tourny entry is 20 + 10; hotel is $300 fo 4 nights.

We booked our flights via westjet … it came to a little bit over $400 for round trip tickets from Toronto to Las Vegas (YYZ-LAS)

Hotel was booked through the SRK link (see evo forum) @ the special EVO rate.

I can’t remember what the total price for hotel was as my CC has yet to be charged (i don’t get charged until I check out). I’m sharing a room with Nagata but I think it should work out to about $200 each for 4 nights.

Hotel is $89 per weekend night, $49 for week night. Presuming youve booked Thursday to Sunday, that’ll be $277 between two, so $138.50 each. Bargain at twice the price! lol.

They wont charge you till you check out, youre right.

Hey guys, good luck. Show them what the Eskimo people are really capable of!!!

I hope to be there with you guys next year. I’m training as much as possible and have DarthPaul critiquing pretty much every video I post. He’s been a great help. So yeah, good luck and bring home the gold!

well, I’m glad to help mate, but dont take me as as a master or anything! I’m still training myself. If I suggest something, I hope you don’t take it as gospel! Mind you, saying that, in terms of knowledge I am pretty decent, I just often forget to do the stuff I know when it comes to playing!

Well I don’t think of you as my messiah but I recognise you as a superior player and thus I’ll listen to what you say if I think it’ll improve my gameplay.
