I see mistakes, Galt!!!!! ENGLISH MAJORS!!!! You won't get far in life, Steven! You'll be working at the Marshall Cinema for the rest of your life, getting minimum wage and the worst possible shifts assigned to you by the manager. You'll sit there wondering why you capitalized that 's' in myself, while your brother laughs in your face as he full combos the hardest song in Guitar Hero 8.

'Imouto-san' reminds me of School Rumble, which is an awesome anime by the way.

Nice story though, Steven. We need some teams practice.
1) Any mistakes you think I made were intentional, for stylistic purposes. Don't believe me? Go read ee cummings nub. (actually don't; he's bad)
2) "mySelf" is so because I'm very important. It's either that, or the royal we, and "ourselves" would not have worked in that context.
3) My bro sux0rz at GH. He'll never be very good at it because he'll never sit down and practice the solo runs.
4) That was essentially a School Rumble reference.
5) I've been fighting Falco with Sheik, which is close enough to teams practice, assuming I can make my controller start reversing when I tell it to. I think my super-touchy stick on my old controller ruined me a bit. No worries; everyone else will lose.

As for the cinema, this is my first week back, and I've already been called in 3 times for special showings. Only these special showings happen way before normal operating hours, so I've been getting up there at 8 am, and 7:30 this morning, and dealing with hundreds of kids, and then working the rest of the day on top of it. Tomorrow, I get there at 8, work until ~11, have a break, come back for the opening at 12, work until 4:15, break, 5:15-10:30. And today was 11 hours. And this is supposedly a part-time job. Just not for me. :'(

Uh... Something relevant... I think I'll be able to go to this tournament, but it's possible that I won't, maybe. But I might also bring a TV + Cube, maybe.

SKURU RANBURU!!!!! Gonna try and finish it tomorrow on the plane to DC. It sucks that I'm going to be deprived of both Smash and Guitar Hero 3 for two weeks, but I'll have fun with Call of Duty and some other games. However, I'm going to bring my controller to DC just in case there's any small tournaments up there.

And you're going to the tournament, Steven, or you're paying my J2 lunch for 2 weeks straight! I believe I'll be able to supply a cube but not a TV. It's too small for tournament play lol. I don't think people will enjoy playing on a 12" TV.

Hey FakeGeorge, where are you from? And are you bringing anyone? I have a main thread in the Tournaments section, and I add people to the list of people expected.

So on the day of the first tournament at your place a couple of weeks ago, way back before the world ended and I was exiled back to East Texas, Xelic took my bro and myself to SA, and after we left your tournament, we picked up Forkgirl and her sister Carlie and we went to a couple of arcades and stuff, and then we were going back to their place because that's what I tend to do when I'm out with female-types. It was especially exciting because their dad implicitly prohibited the presence of sexy individuals like myself, but he was asleep so all was well. But on the way to their residence, they got ancy suddenly, and decided that we needed to stop by a gas station on the way home for a "soda." Carlie, as it happens, was pimping rather hard, riding betwixt my bro and mySelf way in the back; you all should know, we're mutants who produce mad-hard corruption waves which tend to cause a manful cancer in the brains of the unwary, but she persevered somehow (probably because I was tired and she's still in high school). As it turned out, that "soda" was Arizona iced tea, which they enjoy for some reason (this may also be a symptom of a mutation, possibly increasing their resistance to what I typically call my "waves of mack" or "mackrowaves"). Imouto-san also bought some Salsa Verde Doritos, because she'd never had them (you begin now to understand the relevance of my story). So she tried them, and decided they were very good, and then she made Jordan try them, and he also decided they were very good. Later that night, in her living room while her father slept in an adjacent room, ignorant of the rakish young ravisher prowling within his very cave, Taylor went on to get 2-stocked by my G&W with Sheik. The end.

Edit: Wait, is it too late to do shout-outs for that night? No? Excellent.

Xelic - nub
Forkgirl - $200 MM my G&W vs. your Sheik?
Carlie - You know what's even better than Salsa Verde Doritos and Arizona iced tea? Everything.
Weird Asian dude at the arcade - Your mackrowaves are no match for mine. It's not a battle you can win. Try sucking less at DDR next time, maybe.
This was a good ****ing story.

Also I'm going to do better at this tournament.
Maybe I'll get a chance to take out DoH.

Or just set up a station with a VCR and some paper

So anyone who wants stuff recorded can just walk up and write there name down and who there playing
Then record so i can put them all up on the internet sometime later

I'm Louisiana, but you already have my friends and I added, haha. Though, now that I think about it, another guy, Phil, might be coming with us. You should be safe to add him.

I dunno what I can do for you at this point, but I recommend contacting Smiles or Kite, or looking into a cheap hotel room.
