Sell me an XL Tall t-shirt in spirit. And in reality, too. I want that new one.
Do you mind if the color of the shirt is different? I don't know if we have that exact color in a tall

Can we get a life-sized MMDS cutout?

We could just set it up in the caster's station for top 8
Yes please
 
How much do sticks for sale cost at booths typically?
 
I don't know how I should feel.

I don't think I'm prepared for this.

Someone hold me.
 
@thehadou

Have the pools listings been finalized yet?

I only see the schedule up on the site.

Pools won't be announced till after registration closes, and probably a day or two after that even. People still have till tomorrow 11:59 PM to do that, so patience.

Semi related but whose getting into Chicago on Thursday and want to do something out of the norm, like Karaoke or any activity that's not the usual stay at venue/hotel room and chill? Because we'll be doing that Friday-Sunday and Thursday should be special. I summon @Kai and any other Chicago-ian to determine what's good to do in Chicago. Or if need be, I can make this it's own thread.
 
Re: what to do. If you do not want to travel there is a plaza of giant bars that is less than a 5 minute walk. It's more of a bar scene and nothing else but it is kind of a spectacle. If you are up to travel then you are going to have to narrow down your plan of action a little since the world would be your oyster.

I normally recommend visitors check out Galloping Ghost, but they're bringing a bunch of cabinets to CB anyways, so there's kinda no point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

DEEP.

DISH.

PIZZA.

PARTY.
 
@NCV since you seem to know the area, are there supermarkets/convenience stores/places for cheap food within walking distance? (I also need a place to get distilled water, I can probably do that at a supermarket but if there's a pharmacy nearby that would be nice too.)
 
NCV, if you don't get drunk and money match sage again and then stay drunk and money match sage again then i am gonna still find you getting drunk and money matching sage again funny.
 
What are my options?
I dunno. I was actually gonna go shop for a tall from somewhere just for you <3 Most likely white or black lol
 
Yo, is there anywhere I can find a stream schedule for this to watch at home?
 
single dollars only this time. unless maybe it's against @Dhoppler so i can get my $20 back huehue

@Shamanlord I don't *know* the area but there's an area with a whole bunch of bars that's like i said, a spectacle. Lot's of kitschy places to get drunk at. http://www.rosemont.com/nightlife/

If people are up to travel then I could recommend things, depending on time and willingness to travel.

Squigly's raging demon. I still can't believe it. Mike, what made you do it?
In seriousness? Being able to make it mostly useless! Since that was not the impetus behind the original request. :^P

Black it is, then. Gildan has good xlt shirts, imo. I'm 100% on this, btw, just let me know how to pay since it's not through the web store.

There's also a casino within walking distance for those who are into that kind of deal.
 
I'm up for anything that involves drinking, bars and meeting people. Not necessarily in this order. o_O'
 
LAST DAY TO PRE-REGISTER
Tell all your bum friends

Date and time should be the x-axis, though

okay scratch this I just drove by the casino, not walking distance really but still a really short drive/cab ride
 
Totally is, thank you. @thehadou you might want to make one of these for real...

Its on the list of things to do once the schedule is 100% final. For now its still in the 90% final stages. Soon though.

I've never been more ready
 
I feel like I miss out on a lot at these tournaments by not also drinking.
 
i feel you zid
S O B E R B O Y S
 
Sometimes I wish I could drink, but, nahhhhhhh

Drinking's overrated and bad for your health and I can't stand the taste of alcohol
How do people even stand that stuff, eugh
I remember drinking a whiskey-coke mix and a mix of vodka and lemonade and the drink kinda had me gagging a bit
