Sup Fellas.
Just trying to get a big turn out and some hype for our tourney!

You all have a major on Feb 5th dude what the fuck??

Well,
Thats actually KiT… And it’s 6 hours away from Memphis! The tournament on the 26th is really for Final Round preperations! It’s not on Major status, but we would like to get as many people as possible! Memphis has done well in traveling for the past 2 years! Hopefully, other scene’s have seen our efforts and support our tournaments!

The main thing is that it’s in conflict with ATL Revival. My guess is that anyone from Bama who travels at all had already pretty much committed to Revival, but I could be dead wrong here.

Looking like I might be able to make ATL Revival. Anyone else going?

Dude, PLEASE take me with you. And have you decided about KIT yet?

Anyone up for money matches? I need to come up with rent money.

Ok I am totally confused in regards to your logic.
Columbus,Warner Robbins,Savannah,Augusta just to name a few places, are all 2-6+ hours away from the city of atlanta where most of the Major & Non-Major Tournaments are hosted. All of these Cities (With the exception of Warner Robbins) host there own ranbats/bi-weeklies/monthlies etc.

That doesn’t constitute a reason/excuse why NOT too attend your home states MAJOR tournament!!!

I’m not sure if there are specific players in memphis traveling outside the individuals I know personally so I am not attacking you or them but as a tournament organizer/player, it’s a bit weird too see someone advertise a tournament,ask other communities to attend said tournament BUT they won’t support there own states tournaments themselves,especially there states MAJOR!!

Also using the tournament as a prelude to Final Round (reason/excuse) when you have a major going on within the same month and another major city has already chosen/posted that date and they are giving spots in respective games to Final Round!!

I mean reality from the outside looking in,the hype on AE and MvC3 is the reason this tournament is going down,not because of final round and not to bring multiple communities together.

No offense bro but I’ve seen the knock on communities year after year,who travels where,when and for what ever reason, I’ve seen bama almost every month despite the fact that Ga is sometime away,Anotak & SSJ George Bush especially,Solidplay etc.
S.Carolina,N.Carolina have been too ga multiple times recently.

No other crews/individuals Outside Memphis Tekken unit… I think it’s a total slap in the face too tournament organizers like Jio & Kodeevu (TN),Raekwon187 (AL),Magnicious,Pokchop & Myself (GA) who have geared there tournaments towards supporting the entire Atlantic South Division and lay claim to traveling, I also think it’s a slap in the face to not take the time to do your homework on other communities,there tournaments/local events before choosing your own dates then going into those communities to advertise your own projects!!

Aces high u should come with me to auburn this friday to go play on our new cabinet, it has CvS2 on it. It has two big, red sticks and lots of room to sit. Also I know how u like them asians and ur crush from my bbq will be there

You still play CvS2??

Wow…I think that game is making a small comeback down here lol, people were mad hype for it at Atl Revival this past month

Yo Raph. I’ll be heading to auburn on Friday and im bringing the big box stick with me. i need you to solder my button back for me please. Hopefully before you get too drunk. LOL!!

Anotak and LukeR, warm up on your Guily Gear cuz i want to run some matches in it on Friday.

Warm up on my nonexistent guilty gear? NO PROBLEM.

Goddamnit I need to head to hastings and get a copy stick or no stick.

Speaking of which, can you come this weekend for sure? I was expecting you there last Friday but then you didn’t show.

No offense, but who said I was NOT attending KiT? I went last year, and will probably attend this year. I have met you on 3 occasions I believe. You might not remember me, but I am Mexican guy who drove alot of the people around for about 1 year! I drank plenty of beers with Clint so I didnt get alot of time to talk to you.

Believe me,
I have been trying to support every tournament I can in the Atlantic South. I havent made alot but I try to go to most. I have been to Aerial Rave’s…(St. Louis)… Red September’s…(MS)…EVO… KiT…New Olreans…ATL…TX almost everywhere exept for Florida and Bama I think. just havent been able to go for some reason.
To be quite honest, the real reason we are doing this tournament is because there hasnt been a Memphis tournament in a minute and we just really wanted a tourney!

As far as doing ressearch, I actually did. I don’t know why you think its a slap in the face! I mean, didn’t you guys just do a revival a few weeks ago. I think Majin/Mike/Bishop/ and Shin were there. I did not try to make the tournament on the same day, but before you announced the 26th tournament in ATL, I had already put the Venue on lock. I hope you understand this as I am not trying to take away any of your attendee’s. I did see your date but again, sadly, I already paid the Venue and cant really change the date!

So in the end, I hope you didnt take this as a slap in the face homie. I did do research and I am legit wether you like to think so or not! Hopefully I can explain this in person to you at KiT or FR over a drink or something!

imma leave this here

B’ham return monthly tourney feb 19th
Thread up later

Big lan on the march 5th for FR

Deezy, you better bring your Marvel game too, that’s pretty much all me and Anotak play.

Plus you’re gonna catch the EPIC RUNBACK of last week’s “3rd highest money match in Alabama history” FT 15 between me and Anotak.

He got me 15-11 last time, but this time we’re DOUBLING the stakes.

That’s right, TWO dollars, with side pots going for as high as five.

Epic seven dollar FT 15 for fourth best in Bama.

its more like 6th but yeah

yeah I’ll definitely be there this week. I’ve had so much pop up in the last couple of weeks it makes it hard. But im for sure gonna be there.

You gotta block more man!!!
