DaiAndOh Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Someone drive me from Hofstra, it's 20 mins (90 mins public trans wtf?)
M.D. Orona Posted March 13, 2012 Author Posted March 13, 2012 Someone drive me from Hofstra, it's 20 mins (90 mins public trans wtf?) And as I have stated multiple times in the LI thread, I live like 2 minutes from Hofstra and have no problem with providing transportation. :3
TrueGunnerShadow Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 If I got money to travel to Long Island, I would go. Let's wait and see.
BC Sama Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Hmm there should probably be a time schedule for when events are going to start. Also sucks I can't go to this.
M.D. Orona Posted March 13, 2012 Author Posted March 13, 2012 Well the main 3 events are BB, GG, and MB, all of which are on the first post. BB: 2pm GG: 4pm MB: 5pm The only thing I didn't mention is that the gamers edge opens at around noon. I guess the other thing I should've mentioned is if anyone wants to bring their PS3 or 360 copy of [insert random fighting game here], they can bring it and we should be able to have a setup for it (assuming of course, that we don't run out of space). I'll edit that in a bit later, after I get the public transit info together.
DaiAndOh Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 And as I have stated multiple times in the LI thread, I live like 2 minutes from Hofstra and have no problem with providing transportation. :3 DaiSt1ckbug! How many open slots are in your car?
M.D. Orona Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 5 seats including the driver. I'm going alone as of right now so you has 4 open seats to work with. You bringing anyone with you?
DaiAndOh Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 5 seats including the driver. I'm going alone as of right now so you has 4 open seats to work with. You bringing anyone with you? I'm going to ask around.
TD Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 maybe you could pick me up too? cause im pretty poverty :>
M.D. Orona Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 Protip: Until proven otherwise, assume that the entire BB scene is poverty But yeah, there is no way I can manage a trip to and from Brooklyn D: Especially if I gotta drive you back afterwards. However, what I can do is..... [[-sends PM-]]
BC Sama Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Not sure if it will work, but I'll try to spread the word about this tourney.
M.D. Orona Posted March 18, 2012 Author Posted March 18, 2012 I know public transit info is late getting out, blah blah blah. Anyway, for those of you expecting to use public transportation to get out for this: ~By train: Your stop on the LIRR is the Valley Stream train station. From there, it's a 5 minute walk to The Gamer's Edge that's pretty straightforward. ~By bus: There are 2 buses with stops at the Valley Stream train station, the n1 and the n2. From there it's the same process as if you'd taken the train. There is a 3rd bus that has a scheduled stop on E. Merrick and Rockaway Avenue, the n4. Walking from that stop is a little longer than from the train station, but both are under one mile in distance. Just once you get off the bus, you'll be walking southwards in the direction of Lincoln Ave. There's a seemingly long chain of traffic lights, but the blocks are pretty short. Once you reach the underpass, you should have a visual of McDonald's. Walking past there, The Gamer's Edge should be on your left. For the peeps that don't feel like they need to waste 5 minutes on that video, just note the following landmarks if you're walking: ~Staples (near the train station) ~McDonald's (less than a block from the Gamer's Edge) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- And if you're driving out and want a clue as to where the parking lot is, well, you can look at this. Again, if you feel like skipping the video, just know that the street after Gamer's Edge is Fourth Street. You turn down that and literally right behind the building is a lot that's meant for the employees that work there and the residents that live there. There's some yellow painted parking spots that don't require any permit or anything but have a 2-hour time limit, the white painted spots do require a permit.
Squared Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 Assuming I don't get called into work, I'm definitely comin for some GG.
TrueGunnerShadow Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Thanks for the video demonstration. Now I know how to get there.
