Call Greyhound to see if you can do will-call with your order number or something. It seems like they must have some backup for this situation even if they are a terrible company...

my ride just bailed on me. And I can't seem to find a bus/taxi/shutte/whatever service to transport me from Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN to the tournament.

is anyone else passing through or near the area? I'd be more than willing to split money for gas, and would also need to be dropped back off at Purdue after the tournament.

the West Lafayette/Lafayette area is particularly close to Chicago and Champaign in Illinois, and I'm willing to split on gas, so if there's someone coming to Fort Wayne from around that area (or any other area) particularly, please give me a ride!

Placed 5th in Masters. Gotta say I have extreme mixed emotions. I'm super happy cause this is the best I've ever done and I used a trick room team that's taken a lot of negative criticism. I'm so mad however cause my goal was to win a medal and I fell one short and that was a matter of pairings. Either way I had a blast and I met a lot of awesome people. I'm just gonna be a little pouty on the road trip back :P.

Thanks everyone! Tittering in anticipation for the Mr. E pictures xD Today was a fun adventure in many ways, though my wallet does not agree. Looking forward to seeing everyone at nats, and I will be at Madison to block for smogonites (beating randoms, scooping to smogonites, SO TELL ME WHO YOU ARE). I also have: one couch available for someone to stay on. (I live 10 minutes walking from the tournament site)

I might have to take up that couch offer, but I can always swing a hotel if one is nearby the site

The worst part is I got off US-30 early because I was bored of it and took 309 home the rest of the way. That'll show me to do that again... and that's not even a fucking highway fuck off highway patrol.

Hahaha E, I was doing worse than that for most of the way home from VA and had no trouble whatsoever. Then again so was everyone else on I95/495 >_> Sucks to be you. Maybe it's my blue car, they've been shown to be less likely to be pulled over :D

Nice job American Dream, you used some uncommon pokemon and used them to great effect. Problem was you didn't use a Choice Specs Psyduck.
