Well I plan on making the tournament this year. Last time my family refused to leave on time and then we got caught in traffic due to other events that may or may not have involved scantily clad women dancing in the streets; naturally I arrived too late to enter.

Fortunately I managed to get some casuals in.
Anyway, I cant wait to see you all again!

IKR.
I entered thinking "This will be a good learning experience. I may even stand a chance!"
.....and then the Wong Nation came.

I had fun though and Justin seemed cool. I didn't win a single match but I learned a lot. Practicing combos and tech doesnt mean shizzle if you forget to use them or dont convert stray hits. I definitely need to play online more so I can get more experience converting hits in actual matches.
