HOWEVER, the new tower at the Omni includes a HEATED OUTDOOR POOL available to all registered guests of the Omni Free of Charge. The pool is now open, and will continue to be open every day through our stay in Atlanta.
Interesting... Well in any case I hope you don't get accused of stealing 60 bathrobes less than 10 minutes after you check out of your rooms!
And I hope you don't expect to get to your rooms within the first few HOURS of you getting to the hotel. And I hope you don't run into the situation where the hotel leaves the alcohol in the room with the students, and you are forced to remind the hotel staff to do their jobs and remove it!!!
And lastly, I hope you are right about the pool situation.... Have fun!!

Elgin, from Team 237, who are never staying at an Omni Hotel again!!

Re: Championship Who's staying where?

Hmm...I'm thinking big party. 15 Teams+One Hotel=Tons o' Fun. If we approximated 15 students per team well, thats a lot of kids to start some football, ultimate frisby, and other entertaining activities with. This should be some fun times guys.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?

I was in Atlanta for a youth gathering this past summer. The gathering hosted 45,000 people (mostly high school age youth) over two weeks (22-23,000 oer week). I learned that their MARTA system (metro, subway, underground train, whatever you want to call it) is pretty good and has two stops at the dome and you can get pretty close to anywhere in the city via this system.

Quote:
Marriott Marquis
I spent most of my time at that hotel because we made some new friends who were staying there (it is a very sweet hotel...it has the largest atrium in the world). However, we weren't staying there. My youth group stayed about 5 MARTA stops north of the Marriott Marquis (I have no clue how far it was without relating it to the marta, cause that is how we got there) at the Hampton Inn. I believe my room had one of the most beautiful views of the city, only bested by another room our group had. I will try to upload th pics of the views when I get a chance.

I have talked to a somewhat reliable source and found out that we might possibly be tentativly scheduled to stay at the Sheraton while down in Georgia... of course the source also claims to be "human" but testing remains inconclsuive

Re: Championship Who's staying where?

I might bring my GCN, but how will we connect it to the TV? Many TVs there have their ports covered. Oh well, I might bring mine and have a fun game of Double Dash with 4 people.

Any takers (I'm thinkin of you MOE )

well... we can hook up w/ mine (if i can get to your hotel) and another friend of mine also has GCN... we can EASILY!!! get a 16 player race going =D (2 on each cart) i have a 4 way switch... all you need is a RF adapater for the GCN... (you can use one from the N64 or NES or SNES if you still have them (they use the same port)) also SSMB i think is also LAN enabled or am i wrong??? and what about Fzero???

Cool Re: Championship Who's staying where?

Yes, I believe that the Aztechs are staying at the Embassy Suites.

I have an Xbox, Halo, and two controlers (I might try to see if any of my friends want to loan me a controller) I think I'll probably bring it. I hope the TVs allow consoles to be hooked up to them, though. I've seen a couple hotels that have a Nintendo 64 hooked up already that you've gotta pay to play, and no exposed ports.

It'd be cool if there were a few Xbox rooms close to each other so we could hook up a big multiplayer game. (Although I don't have any network equipment myself)


BTW, Aztechs 157 is from MA, not NH

We're at the embassy. I've got a network switch (five port), and probably at least one twenty five foot cable (don't know how long I would need), a controller, I could also check on my floor to see about more network cable and possibly a couple controllers. I doubt I could get a x-box or Halo off of them but who know.

If you want me to bring at least the switch just tell me.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?

Oh boy, I heard about a Double Dash LAN Party at the Omni, count me in! Problem is somebody needs to bring a network hub with network cables. I can bring my GameCube (with DD of course), and two working controllers (I have four, but two of them have busted up joysticks). I need to remind myself to purchase a broadband adapter before Team PINK leaves to Nationals.

As far as I know, F-Zero GX and Super Smash Brothers Melee do not have LAN capabilities. It is a shame F-Zero is not LAN compatible since a Grand Prix Race has thirty racers. That would have been a noble effort if we could be able to do that.

There will be about fifty students from Team #233 heading out to Atlanta. See you guys there!
