Nice going’ Keits. I may actually make a UFGT, now that I’ve got almost a year of notice. ;D

3

Now you’re telling me a tourney way in advance. Time to plan ahead!

EDIT: Photoalbum with over 400+ pics to those who missed UFGT7:

4

if this is even half as gdlk as 7, you better be there

5

I will be attendance once again. I have to figure out how to outdo my last performance. Hmmm. I should start winning!

6

Start by not bringing a jug of milk big enough to feed a 3rd world country, taking only two sips, and then leaving it on my registration desk!

7

Welp you know that I’ll be one to help again!

8

UFGT7 was more than worth the 8 hour drive from Canada. Definitely going to be there for this one.

9

I’ll be there so hard.

10

Might this end up being the first SFxT Major? Keits you got a sort of streak going.

11

I love streaking.

Yeah.

12

Can I be staff/commentator/auctioneer/hype-man again!?

Is it bad that I’m already psyched for this!?

13

I know you already know this but I got your back for assistant director and chief of mystery games trolling (aka tournament)

14

I need a ride from the airport . can anyone help me??? hhahahahah

sup on that super marvel 3

We’ll see if I’m in the traveling mood next year, but if I am I will definitely come to this it was by far the most organized major I attended in 2011 …er ever

15

This thread gives me a raging one.

If you and Murph want the help, you know I’m in to help with the Mystery tourney.

16

Yes! And we could probably use help for Focus Fire X Keits!

17

That one’s a bit more up in the air. Already going to a tourney that month (I don’t travel much) and I have no idea about work then.

18

I’m already there camping for 11 months going to be the very best like no one ever was!!!

19

You know I’ll be making it out again. 7 was too good.

20

Couldn’t make it to UFGT7, But I’ll be sure to schedule in advance to see this.
