F*** yeah! I've been waiting for this year's, since I missed last year!
Pity too, because last year was a Pokémon comp.

Oh well, Smash Bros Brawl is prolly a better comp anyways!

Who else is from SA? I'm thankful it's coming to SA last, gives me plenty of time to practice after Brawl is released!

And I already have a Posse! We hang every weekend, and we'll be there at Marion on the 14th, guarenteed, even though it's a Monday...
