eric Posted October 23, 2012 Author Posted October 23, 2012 Here's a reminder of all the players that came out last year to NEC XII: http://www.flickr.com/photos/malice215/sets/72157628292105283/ http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2B5C14E9B0D5D958&feature=view_all For those who want to see the venue: https://www.facebook.com/events/512870628726577/ https://www.facebook.com/BigEGaming http://www.holidayinn.com/hotels/us/en/philadelphia/phlps/hoteldetail I really like where the venue is located. Parking is free. Chickies & Petes is down the street and going to be packed on Sunday for football. I'm getting some crab fries fasho. http://chickiesandpetes.com/location/south-philadelphia/ They just built a dining & entertainment complex a couple of blocks away which will definitely be poppin on Sunday night for the Eagles/Cowboys game. http://xfinitylive.com/ 5 minutes away you can get beer, doughnuts, liquor, Popeyes, smokes, cheesesteaks, Burger King, McDonalds, pretzels, KFC, strippers, etc. 8 minutes away you can get barbeque, WaWa, Wendys, Chick Fil-A, iHop, pizza, chinese, etc. I would suggest coming early and going out and see the actual city. $2 gets you on the subway and downtown in a couple of minutes where there's plenty of places to eat, shop, drink, go clubbing, and see shit. Don't just sit in the hotel all weekend playing games. Start planning.
floatwater Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 If anyone is in this city on friday let me know. :D
BatousaiJ Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Got my room booked up, I'll be bringing my Asus monitor and PS3 with P4A/BBCSEX. We in there~
Chris Chaos Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Guess what fam? ShinSyn is confirmed for NEC!
Andru Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 How's it looking for Sunday night. I know we mostly wrap up Sunday and people head home Sunday night, but since WC is involved / people flying in / Japan etc. Are people staying Sunday night and leaving Monday?
St1ckBuG Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 The JP players and I will be staying Sunday night.
faultydefense Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Yoooo So anyone got room for one? I'll take floor space, just pm with how much. Pref fri-sun night
St1ckBuG Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 No one else is staying in my room except foe the JP players and myself. Everyone else: you're on your own.
Chris Chaos Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Not sure if anyone was thinking about this but, it seems like all the regions of the US are gonna be here for NEC (And from the looks of things, a lot of us), would it be hype to have a Region Team Tournament for P4U? East Coast, West Coast, Midwest and Canada, in a 4 man bracket teams tournament. Each Team has a captain and have the players (probably best if we don't use more than 8) seated in team slots randomly (or they can select the order of the players), and battle it out until all the players on one team are eliminated. You could even have a losers bracket for this to get the other teams a chance to play each other. I would be down for doing this if everyone else would be; how does that sound? This of course can be applied to Guilty Gear and BlazBlue if you wanted to do that for these games too.
ZomB Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 If that happens the southeast should really have their own team... (And really WC should be like SoCal + neighboring states, and Norcal+northwest)
Roldy Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Wow, this is turning out so hype Toronto should have just sat out on Summer Jam and come to this instead T_T
Chris Chaos Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Wow, this is turning out so hype Toronto should have just sat out on Summer Jam and come to this instead T_T But if Toronto would have sat out for SJ, we probably would not have gotten all the things we're getting now for support as we head into NEC.
BatousaiJ Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 I thought the Canadian crew were coming to NEC?
zeth07 Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 I thought the Canadian crew were coming to NEC? Toronto doesn't equal all of Canada. Montreal definitely seems to be coming at least.
kirbster Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Montreal is coming down in force and there's at least 2 Toronto guys confirmed
Chrome Homura Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Alright, crazy ideas time. So it turns out in theory I could actually attend this event, but I'd need the graciousness of someone's hotel room floor to crash on Friday and Saturday. Any takers? PM me for discussion of details and/or Great Justice!
BatousaiJ Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Montreal is coming down in force and there's at least 2 Toronto guys confirmed Ya, I was thinking about the Montreal people. Good to hear!
Chris Chaos Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 I hope all my EC people are OK. This so much! I heard how bad things were getting in Queens, called the family and they say they're okay but it looks pretty bad. On another note, my flight is confirmed and all I have to do is drop the cash for the hotel when I meet up with Sen sometime this week so I am officially in there!
qwerty Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 I'll only need a room for Saturday night, since I'll be arriving early Saturday afternoon and leaving late Sunday evening. If anyone has room, let me know. I'll more than gladly pay my share of the room.
Spring_Raid Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Am I like...the only person arriving Friday morning? Wanted to come early for casuals, but it seems like I should have changed my flight to later in the day ;__;
