HeHateMe Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I played the Vogt-hosted Symmes Tavern tourny in Ohio a couple years ago and had a blast meeting a lot of down-to-earth people there. I just moved from Ohio to Boston last fall and don't know people out here. Does anyone have connections for a get together/small tournament in the Bay State?? I know there was just something in Philly, but that's a bit of a drive. There has to be more people in Bean Town that play than who's signed up on this site?!-Bored in Boston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodom Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Hell yes!Connections, as in public place to play? Nope. Also, I don't have a NES or cartridge so I'm pretty useless. But i'll show up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeHateMe Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share Posted February 4, 2011 I have a Nintendo and cartridge. Do you have any friends in the area that play? Back in Ohio I knew four guys that I would play regularly, they just weren't into online gaming or going to tournaments, but it made for some random fun a few nights a month.

Bodom Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I could probably get a few guys together. I do have 1 friend with a NES that plays regularly. I'll be at his place for the super bowl and will mention it to him.To be honest, most of my friends are past the video game stage. They love reliving the days when they ran for 99 yard zig zag TDs and threw 109 yard JJ TDs, but don't have much time to play anymore. I'm the only one who hasn't let go...Where in MA are you? Right in Boston? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeHateMe Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 I live in Brighton.I have not gotten over Tecmo either. Talk to some people... Perhaps we could meet up this Spring and make a night of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameplayLoop Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I'd be down if we could get enough people. I love TSB. The only thing that might stop me is date/time/finances. I'm busy as shit and broke as a joke. I'm still trying to figure out how that is possible, but I assure you that it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyDave93 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I'm in too. If you guys name a place I can get a few people to come with me. We have a Wii with every Tecmo Rom out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeHateMe Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 Cool. Well, we have at least four, and with the friends of those four, we could get something really competitive going this year. If a few of us plan a night this coming spring, then again this summer, and in the fall, we will have networked with each others friends enough to all come together and have a decent tournament at a bar/restaurant that could host us with a discount on food?Maynard, I hear ya! Since moving here I'm strapped for cash, but hoping to get a new job I interviewed for this week!! We don't have to spend much, lets just hang out and play TSB soon, like... March?

Bodom Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Cool. Well, we have at least four Man, those Midwest Tourneys are so much better I'm down for getting together sometime this spring...March/April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knobbe Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Cool.

You need to start with a base...tournaments grow from a core base of guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyDave93 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Well I'm in the hills of Western Mass, and I have access to a place that can host this summer. You can stay there too, but I would have to lock down a date for the summer soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameplayLoop Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I used to live in Amherst, MA.. I know Western MA, well. It's been about 10 years since I've been back, but region reunions can be fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyDave93 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 It a town called Shelburne off Rt. 2. I run a camp up there in the summer. I'll look at our reservations to see if I can reserve a weekend, like a Saturday Afternoon to Sunday Morning so those that live far away can stay over and drive home the next morning. Hungover from TSB of course... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodom Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Shelburne is a quick hour & 45 min drive west on Rt 2. Easy enough. The rest of you guys in Eastern MA can hitch a ride. Grab a 30-rack and we'll be there in no time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameplayLoop Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Joy ride w/ Bodom with alcohol on a mission for TSB? Sounds like the beginning of a movie that ends with befriending both a russian stripper and pirate with an unhealthy Steve Grogan infatuation. Count me in.

HeyDave93 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Ok Sweet! I'll let you know what date I can get and we'll make it happen. Plenty of Russian strippers around here!

outchy Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I live in Plymouth, but I'm down to drive to Boston or Western Mass for a Tecmo get-together. I'm not that good but I love the game and don't really know anyone else who plays it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was the hottest girl from Fitchburg (not a stripper but an actress, and that's basically the same thing). Unfortunately, being from Fitchburg didn't help her in the brain department...

HeHateMe Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 I like where this is going! Google shows it's a 2.25 hour drive from me (Brighton, MA) to Shelburne. I can fit 3 others, plus I have TSB, NES, and a 19" TV to pack. Throw me some beer, or a few bucks for gas, and we're on our way! Let's keep some dates up in the air leading into Summer... I know I have two weddings to attend, and some family stuff here and there, but I want to see this happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
