    Hey,

    I got your message, and yeah, I should be there in May, on the 20th. From what I understand, I'll be in Tokyo (Shimokitazawa) until the 25th, then I'll be heading down to Kochi in the shouth for a few days, then I'll be coming back up north, spending the next couple weeks in Tokyo and Sendai.

    You should hit me with your digits before you go, and I'll call you when I'm there. Also, if you want to know the hot spots for VF, I know a few, but some people on the board (Zero Chan?) know where to go every night of the week to find the Junkies.

    I hope we can hang out, but I have to say I'm usually pretty busy over there, squeezing in VF when I can. Nevertheless, I'm sure we can hook up.

    Hey guys--I'm going to be in Tokyo next week!!!!!!!!! For a couple weeks I think, and probably stretches of a week or so afterwards over the next two months. Unfortunately it's for work reasons so I don't know how much playing time I'll have...but here's to hoping.

    No idea where I'm going to be or my number there...but if you guys have a number PM it to me and I'll try to get in touch when I get there.

    Wow - what a hoot.
    Can't believe this many people are coming.

    Spotlite - you still have my number? If not, PM me. I've not been to Shimokitazawa in AGES (I used to live a few stations away). There's a game center there with some supposedly strong playesr, but I've only been once, and that was on Ver. C.

    Anyways, if any of you guys are up for some playing, LMK.

    i'm trying to fly up to Tokyo to meet up with Spotlite. I'm waiting for him to get a hold of me. I think he mentioned that he wont' be in tokyo until next week though.

    Anyway, it'd be cool to meet up with Ice, Spot, and GP again.

    Ice-9, I'll PM you my cell #. Hopefully I'll can come up and meet you guys.

    ICe - I left you my mobile number right? I've not heard from you yet. You that busy? Sick of everyone speaking Japanese too you thinking your native? /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    i'm near Shibuya, and hate to say it, but definitely will not be in Machida anytime soon. Just too damn far! Why don't you guys hit the city?

    I have literally been working 18 hours a freaking day!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't moved from the 200m radius box around my hotel and office building in Akasaka! I have only eaten hotel restaurant food (admittedly not bad), the two ramen shops nearby, and sandwhiches! And Pizza from Pizza-Lo! (Eating pizza in Japan...now THAT'S sad).

    But I think I should be able to get out this weekend, will give you a call. Friday night at Kanispo or has Nishispo completely taken over?

    Kaminari, given my schedule, Machida might be out of reach. Why not Shinjuku or Shibuya? The comp is plenty good.

    Dude - I work in Akasaka, most likely within a 5 min. walking distance from each other. Cha is in the same area, but works his bag off, so I rarely see him.

    Also, there's an arcade in Akasaka we can swing by if you can only get away for an hour or so. If not, then definitely the weekend.

    hey guys,

    im back in Tokyo now after my Shikoku tour, and after having spent a few hours in shinjuku tonight, all I have to say is people here are much more into machi/cheap play than in Shikoku!

    Ive been trying to call David, but he doesnt answer his phone.

    Yo! I'll agree -- I had some REALLy boring matches at Kanispo. Some good ones yeah, but I almost fell asleep playing Skeleton's Kage. /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

    You got my number still? I'll PM it to you just in case. I live near Shibuya, so I'm usually there. A quick cycling away.
