That’s what I was saying. It is a full 24 to drive down, and another to drive back. And after the drive back, your whole day is shot to because you have been riding in a van (hopefully) for 24 hours. If you fly, you can go down friday morning before 12, go to EVO fully rested, chill for the weekend, and be back home before 12 on monday if you wanted. Driving is a huge commitment.
Well then that would be pretty fun. I doubt that I’ll go, but I really want to. How long is the main Evo floor open (where everybody plays games)?
well then i guess the only option is to fly unless we can find someone with a van and a few other ppl who want to go that route and carpool.
I wish i could go, but im broke. D=
/fail
You can count me in for Evo2k9. Ill be saving up to go.
Bomb Thad representin these streets!!!
I will still be teaching on my contract at that point. It’s about a month earlier than I could possibly make it. That, and the only game I’ve been playing much that last year is not there. =x
The visa situation for my wife is looking well, so I’ll prolly be back stateside for school at least. Hope to make it to next year’s to finally rep some Seattle there in BR (whether I’m living in Seattle for school or not).
Sounds like you could make it back in time for NWM though. August 22nd :wgrin:
Did we ever decide how many rooms we needed?
I need one, but I was trying to see what the “evo rate” would be for this year.
Im also looking for people to share a room with.
Yeah, I would book through whatever the net cheapest deal would be. Somebody should tally the number of people and then we’d divide up at about four per room or something like that.
Sounds good to me. I am up for rooming with 4 people. Stuart Hayden has a thread in the Evo subforum about all the Evo attendees trying to reserves rooms on the same floor, or at least have a lot on one floor so people can get to know each other. The two towers at the Tropicana made going to other peoples rooms to play a pain in the ass last time.
I just wanna room with people I would be comfortable falling asleep around.
People plan on sleeping?
Hmmm
Put me down for a room, I’ll probably bunk with mickey and mandel.
well im planning to go so put me on that list. also ill need some ppl to bunk with, and ill just say right now that im 18.
me and fae are gonna have a room. hopefully jacob can get the time off to go too.
Updated the list on the first post.
So far we have 29 ppl that are a yes, and 3 as maybes, and someone bringing a guest so the total we are at right now is:
32
I don’t know what Kyle and the poker crew is planning on doing, I know Nolan is going too but he should post up to make sure that I’m not putting words in his mouth.
Zach when exactly were you trying to book the rooms? That way ppl can get an idea on how long they got to make a decision to get in on this deal?
Friday? ASAP, really. If I’m supposed to directly book 8 rooms I’d want to be paid by people by the end of the month.
