not many fifa players on in this part of the world..if i leave it and head into asia/europe/usa lag hits me big time. I've yet to play a game where someone hasnt chosen at least a 4.5 star team who isnt on my friends list thingy.

we stayed there...used to be called central park hostel. Double rooms are nice enough and much much cheaper than hotels. As someone said earlier you only sleep there.
Right on the subway too so real handy to get about.
When we were there, a small restaurant is just up from the docks. Served the biggest meat sandwich I've ever had....
NYC is an amazing place and not sure a week is long enough!!
