Zac was still visibly jetlacked from Italy.
Zac played Alan on fun stages "Japes, Mute City, etc...". Didn't seem that either player cared much.
Binyan (atma) won convincingly against him.
L_ was playing amazing on Saturday, no johns. He had great reads and was on point with his tech skill. He beat Darrell, me, and had a nasty first game against Binyan. He almost took a game with Sheik against Zhu had he not ruined a basic Fair.
For the results, Julian's (tarheelJKs) laptop actually broke down midway through brackets, so we had to reconstruct the bracket during the 3rd or 4th rounds. With that, in addition to the results that Tarheel posted, I remembered the majority of the bracket. There might be mixups with Oza and Nima though.
I am coming to Socal next week though, definitely excited. I'm hoping for some friendlies/seriouslies on Friday, the 6th. For Fiction, I guess I should just switch to Link =p. I think you should lay off the hype train for Fiction. He's great, but doesn't need the extra pressure, which is probably why he choked last tournament. Let him enjoy his progression to being recognized rather than let the chains of expectations weight him down. He's an uprising player and let him enjoy his accomplishments as he obtains them. Otherwise, we might jade him (see Mango, M2k, Zhu for reference) and cause him to not reach his potential.
