The MAD House (DC/MD/VA)- COMBO FIEND COMES EAST! - January 26, 2008-

If I can I’ll come, and I made a promise to Steve that I would bet Rugal for 5$ also maybe LTB can come down.

I wanna go I wanna go

But only if i get to sleep next to Pat :wgrin:

You’re going to have to fight eric v and bigazn off:rofl:

Whats up man how you been? You should definitely hit it up, these tourneys are always hype and its gonna be even better at the major.

Im definetly goin to make this.
One question tho. which airport is closer Norfolk or Newport?

Edit- nvm Newport is cheaper so it doesnt matter…

wtf are you flying into man? Dulles is the closest by far Norfolk is 3+ hours away and I dont even know where you mean by newport except the one thats like 3 states up.

^oh shit im trippin…im thinkin about the december one i think. good looks N-Ken so im flyin into dc.

I think I’m going to be coming to this, trying to decide if it’s worth it.

Edit: Mapquest tells me that it will be over 200 miles and about 4.5 hours on the road. Assuming I were to come to this, would it be a single night of SF before I head home? Or will there be casuals somewhere for the rest of the weekend and a (preferably free) place for me to sleep?

you have all night friday (the lock in)
all day and night saturday (tourney) and the actual tournment never ran past 11pm so it wont run late.
If people dont mind housing you sunday then your set there (and we are usually pretty good with that).

locally GG gets between 20 and 30 people, st gets around 10 to 15, cvs got only 8 last time but i think it is usually higher, and 3s gets at least 15 i think. Anything else is usually low.
Of course with this one hopefuly being a major or “major like” we can bring in a lot more people.

Actually, 3S is more in the range of 30+ for local tournaments. CvS is usually around 16. So is ST.

the venue has a lockin starting at 9 pm the day before the actual tournament. We run casuals(3s, Cvs2, MvC2), chicken matches, and poker. Just make sure to bring a blanket and pillow, not much carpeting at the venue.

Yeah just sleep at the lock-in, that’s what I always do. Costs like $8 for the whole night of gaming and sleeping.

I need to like, bring a welcome mat or something for my MAS, so my stick doesn’t slide all over the place for the tournament. You guys actually play for chicken? Is any of this recorded?

Yes. Yes we do.

OK, so how does this work? Everyone puts in a particular amount of cash for the chicken, and then pieces are wagered/raised? All this time I thought this was either a joke or a one time thing…that’s pretty hilarious and awesome all at the same time.

It depends on how you wanna do it.

It used to be just 1 on 1 chicken matches.

Devil Jin and I had the first one, as far as I know.

We ran 3/5 in 3S and CvS2, with MvC2 as the tie-breaker.

DJ won 3S 3-0, I won CvS2 3-0, so we ran Marvel and I won 3-0

I got a combo from Popeye’s.

Now we do Team Chicken Matches

We do Round Robin in 3S, CvS2 and Marvel

Whichever team has the most total wins, wins a big-ass bucket of chicken.

Individual piece bets would be interesting though…

That is fuckin’ incredible. People should record some of these…

i’ma have to sandbag in any thigh matches…and they should record these. Actual Cvs2 players are 0-2 against me in chicken matches

Well see, I don’ fuck with the thighs…but if you talkin’ bout titties…well…ya’ know…

yeah pats team chicken match idea is gdlk. it revolutionized the whole chicken match and made it great. so great everyone wants in on it. if all people were gdlk like god.

Ahh, I thought the tourney was on a Thursday for some odd reason. Either way, in light of the information that has been given to me I will probably be going.
