CHECK IN HAPPENS 15 MINUTES BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT BEGINS! YOU MUST CHECK IN BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT OR YOU WON'T BE IN IT!
BREAKING NEWS! IT'S TIME FOR POWER MOVES! THE SEASON IS FAR FROM OVER AND IT'S STILL ANYONE'S GAME. READ LEADERBOARD INFORMATION FOR MORE DETAIL!
Last tournament was a simpler event, yet somehow lag came and crashed the party, although despite this the tournament's end-game went at a rapid speed. In the end, Realms came back from inactivity to snatch 1st place, Raheem came close, but no cigar and got 2nd, Pavel made it into 3rd place after Skyloft spared him, and Gman took 4th place. Anyway welcome to Fight To The Finish #28 where we only have THREE TOURNAMENTS left in Season 2, it's crazy to think how fast the season has gone by, but let's keep it rolling now shall we?
The road trip with your friend was fun, but you two finally arrive at the hotel for the venue where nothing is fun. You reach the hotel and find out that they never received your reservations for starters so you get stuck with a crappy room. Then you get stuck on the elevator for a few hours due to technical issues, and the bellboy just got fired for attempting to steal your luggage. You and your friend are lamenting on the bad news when you spot your rival, after some heated smack talk you’re determined for redemption against him in the tournament. Once you bring up the tournament you hear from some onlookers that certain rooms are hosting friendlies tonight for practice, you and your friend debate on which room to go to for friendlies: http://www.strawpoll.me/12967829
YOUR ACTIONS HERE MATTER! VOTE ON THE POLL TO EFFECT THE NEXT TOURNAMENT'S FATE...
