Didn't RK hold a thing where if someone got a ks at that event they got an automatic KO entry?

I think the real question here should be "will jbc be performing at the kong off 6 on DK or on keytar?" merry happy to all!

When is the Kong Off generally held?  If it's in Jersey, I'd like to drive down from NYC.

Sorry, I realize it's been like 9 months, but did anyone reach the killscreen <gasp> at the Arcade and Video Game Expo held in Chicago to qualify for KO6?

More importantly, IF the pope shits in the wood and there is nobody around to hear it, does it make a sound?

Joyful Seasonings!

At this point just pulling a guess out of my hat, I say it's not happening until November at the earliest.   In fact my hunch says it's not happening until next year.  Maybe June or July.  It's not the worst thing in the world if it doesn't happen one year.  BOTA didn't happen for three years, and it was still great when it came back.

Did anyone qualify by reaching the killscreen at the Chicago Event?

Well that sort of sucks.  I notice he said, "Final Event."   Sounds like it's not only the Kong Off he's done with, but all Arcade events in general.
