Sorry bout that Bill, just corrected it.

SHOUTOUTS:
jimmypikachuchoi: Don't get mad if you lose some casuals. Just have fun with that and remember you are trying to help your best friend out too so that he can do well at nats. It's not all about you. Keep that in mind when you decide to throw a tantrum like that.

MysticBill: Sorry I was an ASS, Bill. I wasn't mad at you, I was mad at allowing myself run into your attacks. You rocked it in the casuals and in our 1st round match. I had to find another way to beat you and luckily I had a little more in me at the end to beat you. Your Kilik and Cass were solid as well.

Phil Bond: Way to go on getting 3rd again. You are on a roll and good job beating Luke. He's tough, but you showed us today how hard work does pay off. All those extra SECRET MEETING SESSIONS helped, I think.

Anduril16000: Don't get another main. I don't think you have the mindset to do that yet, but I'll still help you out if you do decide to choose Cass as your second main.

Ora: 236B!!!

Koichi: Tough fights. Hope you had fun in our first to 10. I didn't get to show you all my things, but maybe next time. We're gonna have another tourney this wk, so if you're still here, we should get some casuals in b4 the tourney.

Pouncer: Good stuff with X today. You just gotta play more and learn her combos better, and execute more precisely. As X you must have zero margin of error in order to win your matches.

Tomi: BYOGDFC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike aka Link-WI: Sorry I had to put you in losers right away. I didn't know you were gonna show up. But thanks for stopping by again. I'll give you some X pointers if you want.

Metallix: You and your boyfriend must be a destined battle cuz you play each other almost all the time. LOL, good luck in your Yugioh Tourney.

Voodoo: Rough draw for you losing to Amber-dono right away and having to face me in the losers. Not your day, but you'll get there sometime. You just gotta get more tourney play in.

Lysha: Fun having you here as always. We should definitely hit the club, so you can help me find some hot Latino guys to dance with, .... and to have fun with also...LOL

These tournaments are becoming more and more fun. Everyone is getting noticeably better across the board. However, I hear many of you saying things like, "I am going to win 3rd!" and i feel that is the wrong attitude. A victory over me or jimmy is very possible for all of you, but we are not just going to let you have it. We both think quick and adapt, but if you bring your game and play solid you can beat us. I think you are all starting to realize how important it is to be mentally prepared as well as skillfully prepared. Just another thing you all must work on.

All tier 2 players: I like what i am seeing. What i would like to see more of is you guys making other people duck when you want them too. I remember the first time Mateo played kilik against me in Calibur 2, in the first round he hit me with five 2A's in a row, then i ducked and he 22B'ed. Its all part of having a plan and controlling the match and controlling the outcome. Caleb does this a bit already in Sieg's 6B+K stance. I want to see it more from all of you. Come up with ways to make people duck, AND PUNISH THEM WHEN THEY DO!.

Phil Bond: Kicking ass and taking names! Way to go! Go ahead and rub it in Ora and Anduril16000 faces, it will inspire them to work harder. But stay on top of your game too. Whatever you have been doing, keep doing it.

Ora: Tier 2 has escalated because of you. Now it is time for you to come up with something new. Mix it up more. More setting up WS[A+B] and 8[B+K]. You have learned a lot about sophie very quickly, now you need to learn how sophie matches up against other characters. Think about the proper punish for blocked moves. Practice this combo: 236236AA 236B

Anduril16000: You played very well against me, i think the pressure got to you when you realized you can win. Yea, I still think a player is better for having a main and being able to make that character adapt to anything. I try very hard to adapt LM to X because i think i will be a better LM player as a result. Its easier said than done though. Having a second main is not bad though, i have 6 mains. It sharpens certain skills over all.

Koichi: This bracket was kind of brutal. Hope you enjoyed your games. I think everyone in the room felt your pain in your first to 10 against jimmy. It took me a while to realize when i can and can not hit him. It takes a lot of patients, so much so i feel like throwing up. Its a stupid game, hopefully broken destiny will save us all. Good to see you. Once your a doctor i expect free health care from you. Maybe we will play again this week.

Jimmy: GGs in finals. Not so good in our first match though. IDK why you wont check your buttons even when i offer to go back before a match but oh well, not like its nationals or anything. You definitely stepped it up though, i had very few oppertunities to whiff punish and you changes some setups around so i could not attack through them. Solid play. Sucks that i got hit but the slowest low move ever to lose the set, but it was a good time to throw it. I look forward to playing you again.

I have no idea how jimmy does what he does.
