*Quick Off-Topic Post*
I heard that someone has purposely misconstrued this thread to start some sort of drama between members elsewhere. This person is obviously notorious for this, and although it is tempting to reply to such an asinine statement from such a person. I do ask of you guys to please ignore it, and move on.
Now, as far as this thread is concerned, and since I did pour my heart out to you guys who have helped this community accomplish what was once thought to be impossible, I want to quickly clarify the purpose of it, in case some confusion arose from this commiserable attempt at an attack towards our achievements as a community.
This thread clearly talks about the fighting game community, our achievements as a tournament community, and our efforts as a group of MK-Players who have worked hard, spent money, and done an extraordinary job in the process. With that said, I thank you all for everything. This is the reason that despite my fear of planes, I will buy a ticket to Philadelphia, join the rest of the MK-Crew, and support our movement. This is what being part of the fighting game community is all about, these are the lenghts and efforts we make, and for the first time, I do indeed feel that we accomplished something rather big together.
