This ended up being AM5.5

[Spidey]

I am down to come next weekend as well, and bring anyone out from this area.

[ObiWanBaloney]

I think I could maybe come next week if there's still anything going on.

THANKS FOR COMING GUYS

so what's up for next week

[COD3player]

If it's next Saturday, then there's a chance that I'll be able to make it this time. Just so long as it doesn't run until too late on Sunday.

[LoliSauce]

With the handful of people Spidey's bringing and the few other socal people interested, I think you can prolly convince AZ to come down Bell.  You know I'll be coming as long as it's actually going down.  As I said previously, I'll be bringing a jps2 and a copy of mbaa, and if you need I can bring a TV too. (I'll only bring the TV if you need it though, cuz it's cumbersome)

[F9|Chibi]

Come back to EC Bell~

Come back to EC Bell~

pay for my ticket

I have four TVs here and one viable PS2 (the slim does not appear to work). So if anything we would need 3 PS2s, and of course sticks, since I only have my own stick presently.

the slim worked, it was just the mem card

I just tried reinstalling fmcb on the red memory card and it's not working right, so I basically have one working setup and a slim PS2 with no cables. Bring working setups!

[Spidey]

I am up in the air about when I am coming to Bell's. I may go to the ninja warrior thing sat morning/afternoon, so if I dontn do that then I will come down Fri night, if I do do that then I will come down Sat late afternoon and plan to stay till Sun. In either scenario I can bring people down to Bell's but not back as I will be going to my parents house Sun and not to Irvine. So for carpools I would ask HF or James, I can however carpool from my parents to Bell's and back. That will save about 45min drive and gas. Anyways let me know and I will try to coordinate.

Other than the jap slim I'm bringing, I can also bring the cables for another slim.  Let me know if you want me to.

On a shitty note, MBAA still hasn't arrived for me yet, so I'm prolly gonna be weak.  If by some ungodly reason it doesn't arrive before the event, I'll let you know.  I'll bring the jap slim either way.

OH MAN!  I just remembered that we have to watch Fist of the North Star live action movie together at some point.  IT IS A MUST SEE, BELL.  Spidey will back me up on this.

[Dipstick]

lol planning!

So I think bell convinced me to go to this. Now I just need to find some logistics with other people in AZ that will actually work for me, as I have to be at work Sunday afternoon.

fffff I just realized that I have a dentist appointment Friday at Noon; but I'm still barely within the window to reschedule it... I think.

Fake fake edit: bell won't be home until Friday evening, so it probably does not matter much. I could leave from the dentist straight for bell's place (it's just a routine visit); it's really up to Choco and Tempered if they want to wait or not (and if Choco isn't going, Tempered doesn't have much of a choice).

I have four (4) TVs, all CRT. Two are untested but should be good. I have one (1) setup and one (1) PS2 stick. Choco says he is bringing two (2) setups, Lolisauce may bring one (1) setup, and HF should be bringing one (1) setup as well. Does anyone have an extra TV they can cart down?

[LoliSauce]

I can bring my TV.  It's CRT. 

I still haven't gotten my game yet, so if I don't have that by Friday we're out one setup.  If I don't have the game, should I bother bringing the jps2?  Also, do you want me to bring cords for your other slim?

Would coming down Friday night (I'd be leaving sometime around 10-11pm) or Saturday morning be better for you?  I'm only asking because my AC recently died on me, so driving during midday gets a bit toasty.  Btw, I still need your address so that I can google maps up some directions.

that's fine, also, pm'd

[LoliSauce]

Okay, so MBAA still hasn't arrived yet.  If it doesn't show up tomorrow, my setup will be useless.  Unless someone can make come up with an extra hacked memory card and copy of the game on the fly, there won't be any reason for me to bring my jappo ps2 or the extra TV.  I'll prolly text you before I leave to make sure if I should bring stuff anyway. 

I hope it arrives tomorrow.  I'm pretty pissed that it's taking this long.  I would have liked to have a week of practice under my belt before the event, but I guess that's what I get for doing things the legal way.

WHERE THE FUCK IS LOLISAUCE

aika wants to kick you in the junk

[f-wlen ice loop]

Thanks for coming guys and GGs to everyone

Someone please bring a soldering iron to fix my stick, I'll buy the buttons

[COD3player]

A big thanks to bell for hosting once again. Good shit to AZ and lolisauce for making it out all the way out here. GGs to everyone I played in casuals and during the tourney. It was a lot of fun and I hope we can all do this again in the near future. Tourney brackets and results coming soon?

[Spidey]

We had a tourney? Also if Bell is down for weekly, weekend casuals I am down to go for like a fri/sat or sat sessions. I will no longer be in Irvine to drive people but I can be the halfway point to Bells, ie. you drive to my place, and I drive the rest of the way to Bells. Since I will be working like 10 mins from Irvine I could also drive some people to Bells as long as 1 person from out there drives up and can take them back, etc.

[Psylocke]

It was great to see everyone again, and thanks as always to bell for hosting

Yeah there was an impromptu MBAA tourney on Saturday, no prizes or anything.  Preliminary results
1st - HF-Blade(C-Ciel/H-Ries)
2nd - aika(C-Hisui)
3rd - Tempered(H/C-Sion)
4th - Psylocke(F-Akiha)

I think Choco has the brackets, so he can post the results when he gets back

[LoliSauce]

Man, good shit for the weekend.  It was definitely worth the trip out there, even if I was getting raped in MBAA.  lol.  Poor new girl employee got bodied at the Korean BBQ place, but silly kicks only and DEER JOUSTING were definitely the highlights of the weekend.  I'm definitely down to come out every month or two if you guys are doing anything.
