This was definitely one of the best tournaments ever.
We had a bajillion setups, the tournament had almost every high-level AZ player present, and let's not forget how mesmerizing it was to watch Kira constantly change transformations.
I want to give a shout out to...
My girlfriend
who said some really awkward/goofy things to you guys but was ultimately really fun to have around. She loves all of you (especially fabulously-gay Kyle, heartwarming Zee and "Curly-Q" Nazo).
Zee
for his fabulous performance at Subway.
Darklink
for not giving a damn about the PR.
Kyle
for using the most wonderful tag ever (Diva!), for beating Kevin, and for finally *almost* losing a game when playing me. :D
Kevin
for being quite possibly the most entertaining person to watch play a fighting game ever
Lance
for being a bro and helping me figure out who should be Honorable Mentions.
Relic
for taking your first game off me, and for forgetting my Snivy.
Aaven
for landing a 70% kill on me.
Jane, Tommy, HeySeuss, and Jard for not really giving a damn about Brawl but still hanging out with us.
Leroy
for having a dangerous & sexy Squirtle in Brawl.
GV7
for being my blood brother, and for setting up the tourney.
Rache
for having a high-potential Ice Climbers.
Stevo
for taking one for the team and getting bracket ***** by Darklink.
K9
and Kevin for being true n****s and preventing our previous best-in-state from even placing in the money.
Ethil
for having his Sonic improve drastically within one night (IMO).
MeowKitty
for taking a game off Stevo. :D
Saffy
for seeing business opportunities in our tournaments, and for wrecking havoc in her matches.
Brokenpixel
who I never spoke to or even made eye contact with, during the whole tourney.
Prevv
for those super fun friendlies- Thunder is like the most fun move to try to avoid in the whole game.
Bazooka Joe
, Xerox
, and Wanna
, for being people I need to properly meet. Hopefully next time. :o
Yoshiken
for insisting that his name is not spelled Y-O-S-H-I-C-A-N-T.
Tyrant
for making all of us look like noobs.
Sadpanda
who become Smileypanda, and SmileyFace, who became SadFace, after their bracket match. It's destiny that these two are now rivals.
SS
and Nazo
for being one of the most exciting things to happen in our scene in a long time. And SS for hugging his TV after Kevin hit it.
And a special no thanks to Yummy
, who AS ALWAYS got lucky in this tournament, and somehow caused my Toon Link to lose his midair jump and die at 20%.
