don was an awesome addition to our scene when he was here and a really great guy, I'm sure we all have something to say and want to wish him well back in the states, so get posting noobs!

it was really great having you here don, you were heaps mad and a great smasher who taught us all alot (I learnt a fair bit about the snake dk matchup, and the importance of keeping your cool in pressure situations and stuff)

hopefully you learnt something from us too.
have fun back home, dont forget to ask outback steakhouse for outback sand, and hopefully some of us will see you in virginia next year ;)

We'll definately miss you D0N. Had a lot of fun on the last friday I saw you and I hope you love teh Akubra. Took some sweet pics imo. :p

Always so different to play against as well, such a unique (almost) purely reading style. And I think I learnt a lot about reading people just from watching you play.

Adios. I barely spoke to you but you're awesome anyway. DK is scary imo.

You definitely livened up the scene. <3

D0N is cool guy and doesnt afraid of anything ... ... sorry.

Oh my...

D0N, i had such a great time at rocky, and more importantly stigmab, talking and chilling with you. Thank you so much for the doubles experience and friendlies and yeah, It's going to be strange going to my next tourney and you not being there... In two tournies you've made such an impact to me... You have a really awesome personality, so I'd like to thank you for existing, not kidding at all. Best of luck back in America!

Thanks and Wub
Splice

My goodbye was a bit rushed with the departing train and all, but thanks for everything you've done to freshen up NSW's Brawl scene with your success and great level of skill. It was also a pleasure to play you on the occasions we did, be sure to tell all the American Ness about me. =)

I <3 D0N.

I remember the first time i played you where you three stocked me with fox.... Good times. We had good times on sydney's crappy public transport. The one hour walk from campbelltown station to claymore was fun too. You expressing that you like dominoes better than pizza hut was funny. ^^. You were so awesome at smash that I could only watch in awe. You taught me heaps of smash things and i also love your american accent ^^. Especially the way you say rock o_O. I'm really going to miss you. Youre like one of the few people i feel comfortable talking to. Have fun in america...

Although I only met you at Rocky, you are the legend that I kinda wish I lived in Melbourne to be around.

I kinda wish I had played Smash at Rocky so I could have played you, but alas, it was not meant to me.

You have a mean DK though man, QLD's King Kong would have been proud had you met him lol.

Also, When you come back, we should play some MvC2, as the reigning champions that we are <3.

It was great seeing you while you were here Don. You're a really cool guy and a great player. That DK man, it's just too good. Hopefully I'll be able to be to reach like half your skill at some point. I reckon I learned a fair bit from playing and watching you.

Good luck with whatever comes your way in the future. we'll miss you. :)

Well it certainly was fun having you around DON. I learnt quite a lot about DK from playing against you. You taught me the power of Japes and Yoshi's island. Also the use of up b on stage. Our matches were always close and fun and just for the record I would never have used MK against you in a tournament match, DK dittos all the way. It was also great teaming with you at the Sydney tournaments I think we were really getting the hang of it by the end and I'm positive we would have easily won BOOST VII if you had been there. I still can't believe that we lost to ILAG that time.

I must again complement you on your choice of characters I mean DK, Zelda and IKE you are too cool. Also hope you had fun playing paintball you were very good at it. We will miss you.

So I could write a wall of text, but ill just say that I miss you guys. If I could come back, I would. Some things:

*Ive been wearing my hat alot and bragging about it. All but 2 thought it was a cowboy hat so far, but I were it with pride ;)

*I am 21 now and want to go to a casino, but I can't find one nearby :ohwell:.

*I played some matches with people. Compared to before I went to Australia I didn't get worse, but I am a little inconsistant. I picked up some new tricks. I think mostly from playing Ted and not wanting to lose to Shaya. Thats not to say that others had nothing to do with it (Splice, Silfa, Toby, etc.).

*Viva: I played famous today, he recorded a few friendlies. ill show you if he posts them, you'll like them.

*I played some guy in tekken 6 who is supposed to be good and beat him when I only played like 3 times. He punched the wall lol. Later he threw a controller when he lost to someone else in the new CoD. We were gonna play brawl but he didnt want to. I forgot how some people can rage.

Well, it is America lol.

Apparently they rage more than us.

Although punching the wall does sound right up my department about half a year ago LOL.

Beast those fighting games lol.
