Well guys, we got all of the water up last night and have had fans going all night down there along with a new humidifier (our old one broke just last night of course). So it's still a little damp but otherwise it's all good. We are going to finish drying it up today hopefully and then we'll be set for tomorrow. It's not going to be setup all nice like I had it, but we'll still have the two tvs and all of the seating. If worse comes to worse, we can chill upstairs too.

I've already got a bunch of chips and drinks so all that will be on hand and I believe Captron might bring some to.

The directions are still below but if you need to call me tomorrow, call my cell at 302-345-6465. Don't use the home phone as that bit it last night. Oh and please don't show up before 12 if possible because I will need to do some work tomorrow morning before you all get here. See you then!!


Confirmed people:
SamuariShowdownSensei
Captron
Saturn Gamer
Phoenix Down
Evil Mike
ProGear
JHendrix
Chainsawyak
RevQuixo
Vanilla Thunder

Unconfirmed:

You unconfirmed guys please let me know ASAP if you are coming or not.

ForeverSublime will not be able to make it :( And what the hell happened to Lee? Is he ok or what?


My address is:
111 Murphy Road
Wilmington Delaware 19803

My phone number is: 302-345-6465

For anyone coming I-95 North, you are going to come into Delaware and want to take the "Concord Pike/202" exit. Once you come off the exit there will be a light right above you. That's light 1. You will then go through 2 more lights. At the 4th light, you'll be at a big intersection with a Gulf station on the right. Make that right and that's Murphy Road. I live on the left hand side but you'll want to park in the neighborhood across the street called Deerhurst. Once you make the right onto Murphy, Deerhurst is like 200ft on your right. Just pull into the neighborhood and there will be a big circle that you can park in. Then I'm directly across Murphy Road. If you need help bringing games in, just come get me first.

Now I'll say the start time is 12pm but if anyone wants to show up a little early and just hang out or help me setup, I'll be here.

I'm going to start the tournament at 2pm and it's only 6 games so we can do like a double elimination style or something. Once I confirm the people coming, it will be easier. We'll have the tournament going on the 32" Wega (in 5 channel stereo :) ) and we can just game on the other 27" Trinitron. I'm going to supply drinks like soda and some chips. For lunch/dinner we can order out as there is anything you can think of right down the road. Also, if you want to drink beer bring it with you as I can't afford it and liquor stores are closed in Delaware on Sundays.

Phoenix, you are bringing the AES,Converter, and games right? Make sure to bring 2 sticks also because I don't have any. Everyone else, just bring whatever games you feel we might want to play. We'll need all of the tournament games except for ROTD and Shock Troopers 2 in MVS form if possible.

The tournament games will be as follows:
RAGE OF THE DRAGONS
LAST BLADE 2
KING OF FIGHTERS 2001 (I will work out a bracket system for the fighters. If anyone already has a good idea for the tournament then let me know.)
SHOCK TROOPERS 2 (the highest score on one credit)
TURFMASTERS (random course will be chosen for everyone to play. Then it's the best score on the front 9 holes. OR we can compete directly like the fighters).
MAGICAL DROP 3 (I don't know this game well but if it goes by score then that's how we will be playing it. Or, we can directly compete like the fighters) I dread playing Patrick or Mike glee

Since we have quite a few people coming, we'll have to make sure that each tournament game doesn't last forever.

Any questions, just PM me!

This sounds like a carpool situation. I can probably show up.

I made it to DC in about 2 1/2 hours but I guess it depends on where you are (and how fast you're driving :) )

I hope you can make it Pat. Check with ForeverSublime about maybe meeting in Baltimore with Saturn and Captron. Maybe you can all ride up together.

I could probably get there faster, Saturn Gamer and Captron could attest to that. wink

I'll be there, maybe we can do a big carpool. My car is a 4-seater but I'd be willing to be the designated driver. :)

Where in DE are you? I'm used to making weekly trips to DE on the weekends during the school year to hang out at a friends massive dorm, it only takes an hour but its right by Delaware Tech and Univ. of DE, in northern DE right after you get off the bridge.

If you're around there I can feasably make the trip. Lemme know whats up. :)

Mike, I hope you can make it up.

Hendrix, I'm about 15 minutes north of UD. You stay on 95 until you get to Concord Pike/202 then I'm less than 5 minutes from the exit.

Let me know!

Porshapwr,

I would love to come, I'm Villanova, PA (right outside Philly) right now taking classes. Only prob is I work Sundays crying

Maybe I can find a way out, but I'm really broke for cash. PM me your address and I'll really try to make, but don't count on it. I do have an AES and 2 old-style sticks.

Well, assuming I have a car, unlike last week and the 4 weeks previous (borrowed my Dad's truck for Lee's get together), I should be able to make it. I sometimes have work on Sundays, just to catch up on shit, but since it's far enough in advance, I'll work around it :)

202 is quite a hike from my house as well. How come you people can't live down the damn street from me!?

(I know, I don't live anywhere near 3.5 hours like SSS, but it's still about hour to hour and half drive from where I am, the ass crack of Cecil County, Rising Sun)

Send somebody down early and you can pick up my car! It can easily fit 8 people in it (assuming the drive wants someone RIGHT next to them), 9 if you have someone skinny (but there are only 8 seatbelts, which you would need if you were riding with my non-driving ass). Gotta love my '85 Caprice Wagon!!

I'd say you guys could carpool to my house and I could take you all over to Porshapwr's, but I don't live near 95 so it would probably be easier for you to drive the whole distnce there from 95. If you wanna carpool from my house though, shoot me a PM.

Slerch, you are an hour and a half away? I can get to rising sun in about 40 minutes so you must be WAY out there.

Either way, you guys better make it! glee

Big Shady might be able to join us along with Hendrix too.

Philly guys?? VanillaThunder, BigBear....what are you guys anti-social or something?

Know where Conowingo is? I live basically right on the border of R.S. and Conowingo.

I figure it'll actually take like an hour from my house, since it'd probably be faster for me to go up Rt.1 than it would be to go out of my way to hit I95. Extra 1/2 hr depending on traffic.

I also have an old ass car that I don't like to go way over the speed limit in.

Send them a PM

As for me, I'm working on trying to get there. It's really hard for me to travel, so I proabably won't be there (like I missed all the recent gatherings), but I'll try.

Say hello to ForeverSublime for me. wink
