X-Mania USA news items from this past week:
http://www.strevival.com/2014/04/19/daigo-tokido-and-nuki-to-team-at-x-mania-usa
An article posted earlier today on Eventhubs quotes Nuki from his blog stating that he will team up with Daigo Umehara and Tokido at X-MANIA USA at EVO 2014!
http://www.strevival.com/2014/04/20/afrolegends-damdai-ganelon-will-team-up-at-x-mania-usa
Long time West Coast-East Coast rivals, AfroLegends and Damdai will team up at X-MANIA USA. They will be teaming up with another top East Coast player, Ganelon. Arguably three of the strongest ST players in the US today, they are putting some of their rivalry aside for the flag of the USA and will be gunning for the X-MANIA USA title!
Two more Japanese players for X-MANIA USA/ToL II who will be announced soon! (hopefully next week?) If we can hit that donation drive number or maybe even more! Every little bit is important, more than ever!
Eight more days left to donate!
I’ll donate
This better not be going to someones car payments…
Every penny is going into tournament expenses and prizes! Thanks for your support!
If we see Kuroppi driving a brand new Porsche with the license plate “STR-$$$” we’ll know something is up 
I’m currently having a super gun built and i dont mind lending that out for tourneys once its done.
Midget hookers are donations well spent.
