DAT HYPE

I'll be showing up for KoF, Samurai Kirby, and BBCSEX for sure. May compete in Mahvel, too. Y'all better be here.

*Stares at Lumin*

[LuminAbyss]

Dis nigga.

Considering meh crew and I are kinda bailing on ECT due to money issues, this is looking possible.

[Astaroth136]

Whoa, seriously? Axis and Lumin, my two favorite non-Tennessee Dustloop people? That'd be awesome.

[Jackie Chandler]

Dude, get over here, and bring a portable grill.

[Milln]

I added to the quoted tournament listing.

Of note is the TWO HUNDRED DOLLAR POT BONUS

and the CUSTOM STICK BY FOEHAMMER.

PLAY SKULLGIRLS.

[Papstr]

This time, I'll be claiming more than just your hat/hammer/fryingpan/whateverdafuk in Samurai Kirby. I'm gonna be claiming your, uh, Skull... female.. thing!! In Skullgirls.

(Disclaimer: may not actually win Skullgirls)

[Milln]

Rumored bonus prize money for Samurai Kirby.

If you place at every single one, I need a shoutout.

[LastStarSaviour]

Well, my hype has officially been built back up for MWC. I begin my training regiment today, I'm bringing my A-game this time around.

[Milln]

IT'S IN A FUGGIN' WEEK AND A HALF HOLY CRAP

[Milln]

Holy crap, you guys.

It's tomorrow.

Well, KOF is, anyway. BlazBlue is on Sunday, champs. I am very excited!

[Klein]

Shout outs to Catbutt, the best darn cat in the world.

Shout outs to seal pillows, that should never be clubbed.

Shout outs to MWC and everyone who made it possible, seriously.

Special shout outs to Milln, making it possible for me to join in all the fun and enjoy the great tournament. I love you man, even if you take my money in Suguri <3

Shout outs to Papstr bodying almost everyone in the true test of skill that is Samurai Kirby, and then losing in everything else. MAYBE IF YOU'D PRACTICE YOU'D YOU KNOW, WIN SOME TOURNAMENTS.

Shout outs to Kain being cool and playing Gear and Suguri like everyone should, you sir deserve more love.

Shout outs to Jackie being as smooth as silk and running into a handicapped parking sign, only a day after Milln honked at a handicapped person. We're good people. Also, <3 Jackie, good games in Gear. With your yomi, you can go far.

Shout outs to the Soul Calibur player we crashed with who I can't spell the name of, and House. It was cool meeting you guys, and I don't play SC5 so I didn't go out of my way to watch that, but House, you seemed like a really legit Blanka. And it was fun playing Mario Party and Munchkin with you.

Shout outs to Blade(?) or Zeta (name please duder) the May player who came to MWC to play Gear as I recall, and went around even with me. HOW DO I FIGHT MAY?

Shout outs to random dudes who I don't know the names of trying Guilty Gear and pushing buttons, you know you liked it.

Shout outs to Dirty La Bamba, your MF is still very consistently better than mine, but you should totally reset when you do standing jabs in your fancy nomnomnom combo sometime, if Double+Peacock hasn't trolled you out of the game. And I'm really hyped to see what you can do with those fundamentals when GG comes out on PSN and XBL.

Shout outs to crashing and playin' games with Star, you should definitely get into Guilty Gear as a sub game, or a main if P4U doesn't live up to the hype somehow.

Shout outs to Woz. Man, I WAS the resident young guy who looks way older, why ya gotta ruin that? Nice to see you doing great in BB, and getting your hands on Gear, exploration of other fighters is always a good thing.

Shout outs to Phil, hope you enjoyed Samurai Kirby, and our matches. Sorry you got screwed by random select, lol. One of these days I'd like to be able to convincingly take on your Millia, in AC or R.

Shout outs to Tad, and having some awesome GG finals, comboing a normal into itself all day is the best combo. I am forever grateful for the idea to mod my stick with a PS2 pad, and a loaner PS2 setup so I can practice Gear solo.

Shout outs to Player 5, I know you can get somewhere with GG if you work at it, Zappa's fuggin' hard though, good luck with that.

Shout outs to that El Fuerte who bodied me in casuals, good games man, someday I should actually play SF.

SHOUT OUTS TO PEOPLE DISCONNECTING MY QUICK DISCONNECTS. STOP MASHING SO HARD, GORRAM.

Shout outs to Naimat, you know we're just exaggerating when we say BB sucks, right? Johnny IS an awesome dude, and I'm sure you can learn all you need to know through digging in this very forum. I'm hyped to see what you can do with a different shirtless guy character. (Inb4IK trolling).

Shout outs to Duckie. It was cool talkin' with you man, and I am very grateful to you for letting me use your tools and fixing up my quick disconnects. You're also the manliest man I've ever met, and you've got some stiff competition.

Anyone I forgot, SORRY. Harass me over it, and I'll revise.
