Haha you do realize that you'll be lucky to play more than 15 or 20 games a day considering how packed it's going to be there. I wouldn't plan on being able whore out any of the big Bemani games (IIDX, Pop'n, DDR), opening day was bad enough and there'll probably be twice as many peolple there for the festival.

Oh and guys don't take this the wrong way, it'll still be awesome, just don't plan on being able to play on the machines nonstop for 12 hours straight. Besides, half the fun is meeting new people, right?

I'm definatley going to this. I'll be there on Saturday for the Kors K concert.

lol good luck trying to whore any game that weekend =)

Well, hopefully the fighters aren't as big as the Bemani.

GGXX/ is one of the big reasons I am going, I need more experience fighting PEOPLE instead of the stupid computer.

[Ledline]

I'll be coming to this, I might be there for 2-3 days (I leave on the 9th )

also, anyone want to play some Pump?

[Dynamite Rich]

I don't really play Pump (most difficult song is Caution Crazy), but it's cool. TGA has a Zero right? The only machines I've ever really played on (only a couple times), were a Premiere 2 and an Exceed 2. How does Zero compare?

Yes, we do have a Zero at the store. It's amazing.

I'm sorry paul, I can't come. I already told Sherl0k, but if you hadn't heard yet...

My thingie didn't go through, and I'm going to have enough money to go to this and also go to college. It really pains me to say this, but yeah, I can't afford it. Also, I can't count on mappy taking me seeing as he is never really on, and I have no idea if he is really going.

So yeah, I wish things could've worked out, but with no job to compensate for loss of funds, I can't do it.

Maybe sometime I'll just make a trip up there once I get a job and can save up, perhaps I can stay with you, but I can't make the convention unfortunately.

My bank account is dry as a bone, I'll have to miss 3 long shifts of work, and I live in Texas.

But man, I want to go to this thing. How could I make this trip as cheap as possible? I'll need a ride there and back (Texas ;_ and a place to stay. How should I go about calculating a total?

[sherl0k]

gonna be some good times at the fest ;D cannot wait!@

[Arctures]

I'm wondering if I can get a bunch of my music together on a CD and play it constantly throughout the fest.

[xybur]

Please don't do that. :<

cheapest route is probably something by bus.

if you take a bus up to ohio you can probably ride with me and mystic

FB party van woooo

[Jumbo]

Yeah, that mappy can be a sneaky one...

I guess I'll go ahead with the bus pass.

[kappaiidx]

Buses are really cool I rode one for 12 hours once (with overlays etc).

Riding on a bus alone is probably really shitty and I would never want to do that. Also sitting next to fat smelly women sucks bad, but if you bring some music or games the time goes by pretty fast.
