I should be fine in making it to the first two, but for number three....I'd rather go to Maryland. You should make the February one the 26th of January instead, because you're not gonna have like anybody show otherwise. pound 3 is a little higher profile, and thus it'll be nice to end Melee [for the most part] with a bang. Or at least a Jigglypuff ****ing noise.
