TaoFTW Posted August 1, 2010 Author Posted August 1, 2010 Miscellaneous Pricing So, there's various deals: -12$ gets you 4 hours, which gets you through 1 week's meet -20$ gets you 8 hours, which gets you through 2 weeks worth of meets -16$ gets you a day pass, which means you can just sit an an X-box or computer until the place closes The place uses a login system in which, for as long as you are logged in, your pre-paid hours will drain. So, what happens is that if you get the $20 deal, you use 4 hours this week. You can come back next week, or several weeks later, and use your remaining 4 hours. $3 Stream + Venue Fee The $3 will be towards payment for the venue and to Iplaywinner stream. This does NOT entitle you use of ANY Eudemonia equipment whatsoever. Please be respectful to Dean and the Eudemonia staff. He's already been gracious enough to set aside space for the tournament. You are, however, more than welcome to pay to play on his setups. Ginseng and I are in the works of making a side-tournament SC2 exhibition. Berkeley Parking for Dummies Solution 1: Local Parking Rates are $1.50 per hour Taken straight from ICSI, Parking in Downtown Berkeley can be tricky, and usually requires either a little exploring, or a little money. All the on-street parking in ICSI's immediate vicinity is metered, and therefore is time-limited. This may or may not be the ideal choice for you when attending meetings here.Solution 2: All Day Parking Garage This is the most ideal solution for people who don't like to walk from faraway lands. All day parking garages are more expensive, but they are less than 0.1 miles from the EU. Here's the rates: Berkeley Way Lot (Six-hour limit) Berkeley Way at Shattuck (one block north of University) *Open 7:00 AM - 10:00 PM *1 hr - $1.50 *2 hr - $3 *3 hr - $5.50 *4 hr - $8 *5 hr - $10.50 *6 hr - $13 Center Street Garage 2025 Center Street (between Milvia and Shattuck) *Open 5:15 AM - midnight *1 hr - $1 *2 hr - $3 *3 hr - $6 *4 hr - $10 *5+ hr - $15 Allston Way Garage 2061 Allston Way (between Milvia and Shattuck) *Open 6:00 AM to midnight *$2.50 per hour, $14 maximum Oxford Street Lot (Attended lot) Oxford Street between Allston and Kittredge *Open 8:00 AM - midnight *1 hr - $1 *2 hr - $3 *3 hr - $6 *4 hr - $10 *5+ hr - $15Solution 3: BART Rates: $1 + $3.50 for roundtrip ticket You can park at any BART station and take a round trip to Berkeley. OR you could park at the Berkeley BART station which isn't that far from EU (0.4 miles). The last train leaves at midnight. Taken from the ICSI, Another option is to park at the North Berkeley BART station at 1750 Sacramento Street. Parking at the BART station is $1 for the entire day, and a round-trip ticket between the stations is another $3.50. From the North Berkeley station, you'll want to board either a Fremont train or a San Francisco train and get off at the next stop, Downtown Berkeley. You'll take a Richmond train for the return trip. Trains run every seven to eight minutes during business hours, and transit time is only three minutes.Solution 4: Free Local Parking Rates: Free, but extremely limited and littered with Parking Officers This is the last solution you have to solve your parking problems. You can park in a - free - time limited parking zone. Most of them limit you to one hours/two hours. I used to go to grad school here, and I would have to get out of class (sometimes midterms) to re-park my car in a different location. Not fun, but it's a solution. Key: Blue: Free Local Parking (Time Limited) Orange: Parking Garages Brown: Meter Parking Nearby Hotels and Lodging Below are a list of hotels that are within walking distance of Eudemonia.

Dacidbro Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Everyone get HYPE! TheBBVlog will be there too >:3 wooo
ZONG_one Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Dacid bro 5C > Daifunka before the red exclamation point even comes up. Pft @ We hit confirm everything.
Dacidbro Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Only in casuals to make you feel stupid or when my opponent has 2 bursts and hasn't blocked one overhead. Lol.
ZONG_one Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 You should've heard Spark trolling me when I was playing drunk with render. I didn't tech a pink throw. He was laughing at me the whole time after that.
natearistata Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 It's ok Zong, there's no need to be ashamed. I can't tech a pink throw either.
Dacidbro Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Yeah but it's funny because he's been trying to learn how for a while now, and he just can't get the hang of it. Purples are his bane.
natearistata Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 no wonder there hasn't been a new CD from that little fuck
severin Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Yo I'm easily out of ideas for a parody sig get at me
OrionXElite Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 All this talk of not teching pink throws just reminds me of playing online last night...EVERYONE except for GGJ(lulz Ragna mirror) couldn't tech a throw to save his fucking life. So I purposely did instant 360B after Gadget Finger in hopes they would figure it out...95% of online players are hopeless at this point... Also...HYPE for the minor! I dunno if you're taking count on setups but count my GG setup and my BB setup in.
