I'm very sure ML will be involved...

Either myself, Mercio, or Skybruin will be the leader of the group.

We will have entries in the fighting tourney as well I'm sure.

Oh man, I didn't notice that my poster said the 7th and the 8th.

The event is supposed to be scheduled for the 6th and the 7th; starting tomorrow.  EEK!

Here's the plan: If enough people show up tomorrow, the event will continue as planned.  If not, the event will be postponed until next weekend.  Extremely sorry for the confusion.

Outstanding event Shadow, well planned and well ran. Definately a much needed change from the current ones, this was definately the best final i've seen too.

Thanks to all who showed up and participated and who watched.

i don't think it went too badly for you guys i mean some of the fights were pretty close we featured in, i know my very first fight was down to the wire (mostly through lack of hyper block) and obviously there were others throughout the night which were down to the wire.
#36300135043 01/07/2007 20:14:31 Re:Vector Diathlon by Shadows of the Infinite

Wow I really dropped the ball on this one.  I was really looking forward to the more 'academic' side to the event, and clean forgot about it.  Go me.

While I am not a big fan of SOTI during PVP, they generally have very good events. ShadowSK is alright. Just don't tell him I said so. I can't go off ruining my jerkface image. :)

Sure you can, you just wait for a very dangerous lightening storm to come above you, pull your pants down and put your hands around your ankles and stick your butt in the air.

How can you get 'warm' to who someone is? You either are or you aren't. Yasa told me on MSN.
