Let's see here. It's roughly 4,000 km between Spot's hometown and LA (which I don't know how close that is to you). Halfway would be about 2,000 km towards the center. Roughly 1,750 km between Springfield, MO and Spot, and roughly 2,280 km from Springfield, MO to LA... I think that's about as centrally located as we'd all be able to find. <.< SF is closer to me than LA is. 50 miles vs. 300 miles, respectably. But when are any of us going to have the time and the money to do this? That's the big question, I think. >.> That changes the calculation a bit... SF to Springfield: about 2,565 km Springfield is definitely closer to Spot, but it's still pretty centrally located. Plus it'd make sense to stay in a more centralized location that one person knows really well and can provide free lodging... <.<

xD .. some of the summons can be very cute. Like. Like. Tonberry. :3 *coos* I love Tonberry. :3 .. that thing is evil. xD Assuming it's the same thingy that I fought once in FFVII, anyway.

Well. Jawas are odd to begin with. They smell bad. I don't know. I just had the whimsical want to say it.

Eh. I had more fun watching the summons. And noticing how nice the graphics were compared to FFVII. xD .. some of the summons can be very cute. Like. Like. Tonberry. :3 I don't think I've seen Tonberry as a summon. XD He's usually a monster who can doink you for 9999 damage if you don't kill him fast enough. Though he's still cute. Like the Cactuar. =3 Yeah, the graphical leap between VII and VIII really is huge. XD And summons are awesome. =3 Especially the ones near the end of the game which get ridiculously epic (well, at least going from IX and X). ...though I still need to play both. >>; It'd be nice if I could download them from PSN. Ark is just about the longest summon ever. XD Even non-Boosted. Bahamut easily trumps it. Yeah, really. XD But Ark is awesome.And I love Bahamut. He's probably my favorite summon.

Plus, the centralized location means more money saved on travel expenses for at least one of the parties involved in travelling... ^_^ (I think it's around $1,000 for me to purchase a ticket that is round-trip from CA to NY. =/)

Ikkin should really play FFIX, where they have some very awesome FMVs of Bahamut. <3
