The official Evo 2k9 NW thread. Nobody on dry land can fade the NW

This point cannot be stressed enough. It will likely be even worse since it’s in July this year. :wasted:

Also, stay away from any restaurants owned by Dan Marino. Fuck Dan Marino.

Oh and another thing, PLEASE STOP PLAYING GAMES AND EAT AND REHYDRATE every 6-8 hours at minimum so you don’t pass out and have the ambulance called on you. This is not Korea and there won’t be any Zerg rushes, so there really is no excuse.

If i get this job, Jetay Barber will be present at EVO

Mandel at the penny slots with free drinks?!

YOU BETTER GET YOUR POPCORN READDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDY!

This cannot be stressed enough, FUCK DAN MARINO. And also I had changed through maybe a week and a half’s worth of clothes in the 3 days I was there just as kind of an estimate for how much you need to pack lol.

Yes, we don’t want more “issues” with people falling prey to dehydration during qualifiers. Like Blake said, this is not Korea or Japan, you WILL NOT have maids serving you drinks on the cheap and emptying your ash tray for you while you play, be smart and buy maybe a couple bottles of water from a store OUTSIDE the casino if you get the chance, cause I spent most of my money at those ripoff kiosks they had at the Tropicana.

Walking through that quarter mile of Kiosks everytime we went to the tournament room was weird as hell.

No, I don’t want to lay inside a giant condom while you massage me with water. Thank you.

Heh I brought like a week’s worth of clothes too but it was so damn hot I just wore flip flops, shorts, and a wife beater the entire time. Otherwise you are soaking wet from sweat after 3 mins outside.

Ya’ll are acting like a bunch of girls when it comes to the heat there.

girls hate heat?

Unlike you some of us have a reputation for having a home, so we care about B.O. levels.

im gonna need someone to stop by the stussy and undftd stores and cop me a new stussy and undftd las vegas shirt from each. i already have 2 from my last trip but there might be some new ones you cant get up here or find online.

ST 5v5 qualifers?!?! When is this going down?

yeah, definitely need some portland people too, they’re hella good

Not too sure about when the team is going to be decided. Best person to ask would be cole.

id like to go to evo this year but i dont want to spend an excess of money if i dont have to. so is anyone going to carpool or are most ppl flying?

Damn I’m in the worse situation. I’m 16, and new here so nobody will probably want to room with me, I can’t take advantage of Vegas’ offerings. I’d probably sit by myself the whole time, and I doubt hotel employees would even let me use a room.

On top of that, my parents wouldn’t be to stoked on it if I said I wanted to go to Vegas for four days, haha.

Driving requires taking 2 extra days off; one for the trip there and one for the trip back. :confused: I wouldn’t mind driving if it were a fairly spacious car and there were people to chill with, but it comes with its own problems, like where to park your car for 3 days.

A bomb ass van like my uncle used to have would be fun. 5 or six people in a van with tons of space and a tv for gaming could be good times, but getting to EVO in 2 hours is still preferable.

well then i hope i can get my pops to pay for plane tickets, dont think he’ll go for the vegas thing as a graduation present though…

I’m pretty sure people are more into playing casual matches than going out and gambling/drinking.

if you got enough responsible ppl that could drive you could make the trip in a day, just by taking turns every few hours
