When did everyone decide that September was the time to have random majors? ;_;

[Fraga]

We've had it planned for awhile, just no date. But kinda ironic isn't it?

[Komidol]

Yeah definitely, September usually has nothing. 

[LordPangTong]

I'll bring a PS2 with copies of MBAA and GGAC. $10 seems a bit steep for GG, imo.

Alsooo, FUC side tournament real talk.

[riceman789]

Gonna bring up your sakura for fate LPT?  I'll be down coming, just wondering if I want can a ride from someone(if its possible of coarse)

[kona]

Someone give this man a ride. :3

[riceman789]

haha thank you kona, I will pay for gas for both getting there and coming back.

[Fraga]

Edited some information: Makoto allowed for BBCS, and Tekken 6 dropped until further notice

[kona]

Any confirmed heads for this tourney? I might actually play some Melty this time.

[Fraga]

Ok BBCS 2v2 Teams have been added. Saturday at 6:30pm, $10/team ($5 each)

[Fraga]
