[CaptKirby]

I will very probably be there but I really, really do not want to drive alone again....aughhh. Anyone who pays attention to TCG have any idea if TCG vendors show up?

p.s. any TCG players going I am never rooming with a VGC player again

 

[Cybertron]

I don't think there have ever been TCG vendors at Worlds, they have an offical Pokemon store though that sells TCG packs lol.

 

[CaptKirby]

Thanks for the quick reply! I was wondering what "retail" meant on their website, since I could have sworn everyone said no vendors.

 

[viperGTS]

I was originally planning on going to this, but i dont have a copy of B/W and i've started to lose interest in pokemon all together. :/

ill wait for the B/W remake and then ill probably get into VGC again!

 

[Rukario]

I hope Worlds 2012 will be in New York. It's a long-shot but it's definitely possible. :)

I saw a post somewhere on Pokegym I think saying that TrollandToad was coming but don't take my word for it.

Nope no TCG vendors *waits for ultimatedra to posts*
All they have is the worlds retail store and all they sell is worlds 2011 memorabilia+packs+sleeves+deckboxes

By popular demand...

TPCi has a store for souvenirs, but no TCG retail will be there. Several TCG people "will set up shop" in the open play room the night before the LCQ and sell stuff like sleeves from japan, dice, cards, etc.

That was for nationals, not worlds.

 

[breh]

i will probably be able to go if my parents are willing to drive me to the LCQ.

 

[RubeNCB92]

global prizes when they say?

All right thanks dtrain/ultimatedra/everyone. I heard stories of people getting kicked out of the event for things like the setting up tables though?

This is a true fact unfortunately

Booking my flight in the next few days hopefully since last minuting it didn't really do wonders for the pricetag last time, when is everyone planning on getting there/leaving? I know we were a little uncoordinated about that for Nats...

And I guess I'll play in the LCQ, but no promises on effort.

 

[makiri]

I'm happy to try this In-N-Out you all speak of, I did have one problem with Ca when I last went.
Where are the Dunkin' Donuts?

and we're on tv...................

xD

 

[Synre]

No I want to GIVE a free win not GET a free win...

[GreySong]

I placed 5th in the Masters division at Nats. Go ahead and put me down for Worlds. :)

 

[theamericandream38]

Nobody can be sad if I don't show up because I've definitely asked at least 5 different people about rooms (whether they won a trip or not) and no one has got back to me and/or they have refused because they chose to give priority to other people first (which is fine and perfectly understandable, but frustrating nonetheless).

 

[voodoo pimp]

Anyone have recommendations for a good motel?

They closed the one in Fresno. Pissed me off SO MUCH.

 

[Zog]

But you get Krispy Kremes in England! :(

 

[Unreality]

But you get Krispy Kremes in England! :(

I disagree because, well, america is better

 

[CaptKirby]

Just to let everyone know if you eat 12 Krispy Kremes in one sitting you will barf. Definitely the best donuts, probably coated with lard or something.

A bit disappointed I will not have any tcg vendors to sell to, but I will definitely be there to insult Fishy for losing with her choice specs energy ball Jellicent.

 

[Dozz]

What is that damned coating? I swear it's like raw sugar. Whatever it is, it makes my teeth go numb, and ache around my fillings. Might treat myself to one and a cooked slab of cow.
