SoCal: Play at Plague's house with MYKE!

There's this guy from Australia coming to town - I think he said his name was <font color="blue">Myke</font>... OMFG! YES!!!!!!


It's time to play at Plague's house!

Myke is coming to town! I can't believe it's going to happen again! Last time was an absolute SMASH! It's a perfect reason to throw a SoCal VF party. Dust off your mad VF4:Evolution skills and come to battle with the best SoCal has to offer. Players from outside of SoCal are welcome to attend. I think it's definitely worth the effort.

<font color="red">Don't miss your chance to fight the man behind VFDC! His Kage will TFT you from here to New Zealand!</font>

<font color="red">This just in! </font><font color="blue">Shag</font><font color="red"> is gonna be here, too! Feel the real power straight from the incredible NYC VF scene!</font>

<font color="red">Get ready for this! </font><font color="blue">MAXIMUM,</font><font color="red"> who hails from Scotland (and currently on business in San Francisco), is making plans to arrive! This is becoming quite the international event!</font>

Address numbers on house and mailbox post. Silver Honda Odyssey in driveway.

PM for phone numbers if you need them.

Will you hit traffic? Hard to say since it's on Sunday. Don't let that sway you! This trip is worth every minute of it.

What we provide: Three TVs, US PS2 with Evo, Japanese PS2 with Evo, two evo sticks, two ASCII sticks, air conditioning, fridge full of soda, couple or three bags of chips, places to sit, room for five or six (maybe seven?) VF setups.

What you all need to bring: Biggest TVs you can come up with and fit in your car (remember, it's better to have too many), POWER STRIPS, your PS2s, your sticks, and your evo discs.

What about food? Everyone usually chips in for food. Lots of fast food in the area. Good sit-down restaurants, too.

Who's gonna be there? Well, in the past we've had some of the best that Southern California, the West Coast, the East Coast, and the world has to offer - any one of them could make a return visit: <font color="blue">akiralove, andy, Myke, Srider, Joey (Betabow), Shou, mukatsuku_shun, bearcrusher, kurita, Kaminari_Oyaji, stompoutloud, Jerky, SiYkO, Dobi, IronJUNKIE, Shang, LPC73, Team Tokyo Mafia (PhoenixDth, Sean, GoatCheeseBlues), Ken_I, Catherine, Exile, SillyWilly, KTallguy, Type Tenchi, Banes, Mindscan, Whoa_its_Eric, Mike90210, vf4akira, Gribbly and Team Pandemic (Austin, Forrester, Jimmy), sgtsmurf, Joon, Weslyzm, Rikyu, Adam, Amir, Chris, Chris II, Adrian, Peter, Mike, Jake, Collette, Harlock,</font> and many more!

Sometimes 17 people at once with five set ups running!

Maybe this time we'll get six setups going! Maybe even seven!

What's gonna happen? Lots of VF4Evo. Major good times.

Remember this: <font color="red">Sleeping Sunday night is not important. Take Monday off and rest.</font>

Holy shit! More stuff going on: Come have dinner Monday the 19th at 6:00 pm with <font color="blue">Myke, Shag</font> and a bunch of SoCal players at Acapulco Mexican Restaurant. Paste this address - 17635 Castleton St. Rowland Heights, CA 91748 into Google Maps to see how to get there. If you were fortunate enough to be in Texas for TiT4 or the EVO2k4 tournament in SoCal, you may have experienced one of these VF dinner parties. Definitely an event not to be missed. Bonus: rounds of FT at AI afterwards. /versus/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Please post your intent to show up right here on this thread - makes it more exciting for all the fence sitters out there - and it's easier for us to plan the beverage purchase.

 

Hey if I come, will someone be able to pick me up from the airport? I'll head to Ontario if it's easier.

 

If you can make the trip out here, it would be easy for me to pick you up from Ontario Airport. It's near my house.

This is a good sign - I put up a VF-Night post and get a response from Florida right off the bat. Very, very good sign, indeed. I'm betting this is going to be huge. /versus/images/graemlins/cool.gif

 

I WANNA GO /versus/images/graemlins/mad.gif /versus/images/graemlins/tear.gif /versus/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

 

I'll defenitly be there. I wish it was right now even! Too bad Dobes, I'll play some Brad for ya.

 

hopefully school doesnt suck balls.

I would love to go!

"I'm actually thinking about how the hell my schedule will be.

Basically I think I'm moving on Dec. 22nd. Also, I have finals that week.

But if there are no finals on Monday, and I get all my moving done, you guys just might see how little I've improved after being in Japan for one year =P"

 

I'm actually considering coming to this. I need an excuse to go to Cali once in my life. /versus/images/graemlins/blush.gif

 

Yes! That would be fantastic.

The 18th is looking better and better. I hope everyone who wants to come can find a way to get here. This will be a grand VF celebration - CA, Australia, now maybe FL and NY.

Incredible.

 

RAINMAN! /versus/images/graemlins/lol.gif

 

Jerky come visit for the infamous socal COOOOORRRRNNN!!

 

Unfortunately I've neither the vacation days (co-workers are off that week) nor the availability. (TeH ScHoOl!)

 

Cal -EEE -FORN -Yah, HERE I Come! /versus/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Going -TO - have some - VF FUN!!!!!! /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Ahem, I booked my flight. I'm going to arrive Sunday morning and have to depart late Monday night. Hopefully I'll get some FT action at AI before I leave. /versus/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Can't wait to see everyone there! Special thanks to Plague for setting this gathering up. /versus/images/graemlins/blush.gif

 

Shag you should come in earlier or leave later, atleast enjoy the sights of CA while you're here.

 

Ah HAH! YES!

<font color="blue">Shag</font> has confirmed!


After recovery sleep on Monday let's all get together for dinner and then some FT at AI. I'll be providing transportation for <font color="blue">Shag</font> throughout his stay in SoCal and I believe I'll be picking up <font color="blue">Myke</font> from somewhere to go to the proposed dinner/FT Monday night madness. I think it would be nice to eat near AI as <font color="blue">Shag</font> only has till 10:45-11:00pm at AI and then I'll be taking him to the airport.

The restaurant selection is pretty large around there. I'm betting other people know it better than I do. I know of a TGI Friday's and a Claim Jumper. I know there's other/different type stuff around, too. Ah... WAIT... we could experience the magic that is the hot roller-skating waitresses of Frisco's! - Ah... <font color="red">NEVERMIND.</font> Frisco's will be <font color="red">closed</font> on the 19th for a company Christmas party.

So, I call for (insert name of restaurant besides Frisco's here)! Last I heard was that <font color="blue">PhoenixDth</font> and <font color="blue">GoatCheeseBlues</font> were throwing around ideas a place that <font color="blue">Myke</font> has never visited for food.

This just in! We have a winner...

Come have dinner Monday the 19th at 6:00 pm with <font color="blue">Myke, Shag</font> and a bunch of SoCal players at Acapulco Mexican Restaurant. Paste this address - 17635 Castleton St. Rowland Heights, CA 91748 into Google Maps to see how to get there.

Everyone please set aside time to come to dinner and AI so we can all show <font color="blue">Shag</font> and <font color="blue">Myke</font> a good time.


Please post your confirmations for Sunday and Monday - it builds excitement and makes for events-to-remember when everyone shows up. /versus/images/graemlins/cool.gif

 

i think myke is obligated to IN-N-OUT again
I also think myke can just get full looking at claim jumpers, doesnt even need to eat a bite.

I have no guarentees for friscos though, i have a feeling holiday shopping is gonna cringe my wallet this year- gotta penny pinch where i can.

 

Mmm, In-n-Out burgers are sloppy, quick, and ... GOOD. Now why does that sound like an ex-girlfriend?

Maybe 'cause lots of people have ex-girlfriends just like that. /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif


News that is not-so-great:
Frisco's is closed on the evening of December 19th for their company Christmas party. I pleaded my case that I would bring international visitors and it was to no avail. New restaurant choice to be forth-coming. Previous posts have been updated. Keep an eye on this thread for details.

News that is way better than not-so-great:
Forget about Frisco's - Come have dinner Monday the 19th at 6:00 pm with <font color="blue">Myke, Shag</font> and a bunch of SoCal players at Acapulco Mexican Restaurant. Paste this address - 17635 Castleton St. Rowland Heights, CA 91748 into Google Maps to see how to get there.

 

Count me in!
