[Jun 6, 2015] Presenting The Common Wealth (Norfolk, Virginia) $4,000 Pot Bonus for MKX! Plus F0Xy!

[STB Shujinkydink]

I've always hoped there would be a community pot to help people pay for expenses to get to tournament but I feel like it'd just be abused by some.

tell me about it lol flights from where i am right now start at $786. #ocanada

 

[Mr Aquaman]

Amtrak is a super cheap way to get here as well, the station is right down the street from the venue next to our Ball Park. Travel will take forever but tickets average 140$ from places like Florida and Michigan for instance. Something to look into.

 

[Mr Aquaman]

Any possibilty of any classic MK games to be played? I.e. Mk1-4

 

[PND_Mustard]

@A F0xy Grampa If you don't win you aren't allowed to come back

 

[Juggs]

Anyone from GA carpooling to this? $400 flight plus $150 a night hotel is a little too steep right now. Would rather split gas and split room with some peeps. @Trepound380 @Pig Of The Hut @AK L0rdoftheFLY @AK cyusstrike etc (yes, I would ride and room with you pig/fly, I may talk a lot of shit though, it's tbd )

What day are you guys driving up there? I'm coming from tampa and I might have to pass through ATL.

Edit: never mind. It's taking me through savannah.

[Shock]

When I'm at a major, 2D MK represents, whether you like or NOT!

 

[Relaxedstate]

I'll be there and fully supporting 100%!

This is going to be a great tournament for MKX and Injustice!

 

[Icy Black Deep]

Sights -

Chrysler Museum (free entry, newly added video game exhibit) - USS Wisconsin - Nauticus Museum - Townpoint Park with events and festivals daily - Chrysler Hall - The Norva (voted number 1 music venue in rolling stones)

@KDZ can finally see a battleship!
And the largest fireworks show on the East Coast? That's some nice timing!

Definitely going to try to put a couple extra days in down there.

 

[haketh]

I'd definitely like to play, not neccessarily as a money match, but at least some exhibitions/casuals in MKX:

@Pig Of The Hut
@General M2Dave
@Perfect Legend
GGA crew, who I assume I wouldnt have had much xp against up to that point @GGA 16 Bit, @GGA Dizzy, @GGA Max, @GGA pimpimjim.
@Tom Brady
@R.E.O.
@CD jr / SR @Maxter
@SonicFox5000
@THTB

As these are all guys that even though I may have played in the past, havent had as much time to play against.

Although I hope PS4 isnt region locked and by that time I would have at least had some online xp with you lot, since I hope to have a broad base of players to play against, not just for experience, but to reconnect with the community, that in all honesty, I owe, and must hold alot of 'dats' for.

Unless NRS does a game specific thing online play shouldn't be region locked, you're able to play against JP/UK players in XRD for example.

Are the cheaper hotels closer or have a way to the venue / airport?
