USA [Mar 22, 2014] Team St1ckbug (Brooklyn, NY)

I'm gonna try and get there by noon so I'llbe leaving aaround 10 and take the train in, but if anyone needs a ride into the city from north jersey I can pick them up and drive in. I'll also be bringing my ps3 and get a setup going early. Well, that's my plan anyway (I be lazy sometimes).
 
Yeah Zid, Nate, and I are aiming for noon-ish. I don't know what the traffic situation is going to be like, I've never driven directly into New York City before (only driven through New York state to Ohio, and Pennsylvania,) KoF starts an hour before Skullgirls, and I want to get casuals in before both tournaments. So I figure that noon is the safest for all of these.

Haha. Oh man. You are in for an experience.

:( The two things I'm looking forward to the least are driving/parking in New York, and being exposed as a fraud on Art's stream lololol
 
Don't worry. You can't be a fraud unless someone thinks you're good.
OOHHHHH BURN

wait someone else is supposed to say that not me
 
I'll try to get there early since I have to see how the transit goes. Guess I'll play GG or SG casuals with anyone there.

Think I'm gonna leave tomorrow at like 10am and try to get there at like 1:30pm, which should give me enough time before the tournament "starts" "at" "3".
I'm starting at 3 unless I get 20 for KoF or the trains explode.

So I finally get home from work, get to relax, and prepare myself for the abuse I'm about to receive tomorrow. GET HYPE!

......................... I can't go..............

In order for Icky to bring me, it's like 2 extra hours (so me going would turn a 6 hour road trip into a 8 hour road trip). I had a ride that would bring me closer so it would add no extra trip time, but they called me earlier and told me they can't make it. And now I'm having an impossible time getting to sleep, so even with a ride I would be falling asleep the whole time. I could try and force it, but whenever I try and force a thing to happen it ends up blowing up somehow and everything gets ruined.

I'm pretty upset by this. This was going to be a good chance to test my mettle. All these great and exotic players that I haven't played seriously in a long time (if at all), I wanted to play them in tournament. And I wasn't going to troll with Peacock. And casuals all day, and meeting everyone was going to be awesome. And I've never had Ginger Ale from Brooklyn before. And supporting Skullgirls tournaments. I'm just sad now.

dude I'm not great and exotic, I'm just another dude who plays for lolz and calls it a day.
 
By "great and exotic" i mean "cool people not from Game Underground". That shit's exotic to me. GU people are awesome, but I was hoping to see brooklyn is all.

Heading out in about 30-45. If no one has a PS3 setup when I get there, I'll try to make PC work, assuming the monitors like me this time around.
 
Yeah, I'm heading out in like 20 minutes.... I hope the trains are good to me today
 
Good luck in tournament guys.

Looking forward to watching the stream.
 
Heads up organizer, @matlokholmes will probably get there a little late, arriving in New York at 3:10 and hopefully 15 more minutes to next level. I'll pay his entry fee, so please don't exclude him.
 
I'm on my way now, should be there in an hour or so.
 
what time will SG be streamed?
 
Traffic on BQE. I might be a little late. Someone tell the TO for me please.
 
Top 8 SG being streamed now: twitch.tv/nycfurby
 
So that was fun. Dunno if I'll go to another one, cause driving out that far across all those highways did a number on me, but I enjoyed it.

Major props to @dekillsage for lending me his converter for like 90% of my matches, even the one vs him.
 
This was fun! Thank you to everyone who showed up and even drove over 2 hours to come and support. <3

New Your will try and support one of new englands monthlies -_^b

Thanks @RetroStation for helping set this up and @DaiAndOh for having us!

Thanks for showing us all some high-level double tec- err Skullgirls!

Brooklyn traffic is horrible. I don't think I'll have much luck convincing anyone to drive me there ever again.

I'll still see if I can though.
