I'm doing my best to scratch together the money to go, so as it is now my plan is to be there! oh yeah. I've had the idea stuck in my head since I did my first kill screen. It would just be excellent go and meet up with people who share the same fascination. I have a lot of time off over the summer after the end of june and my plan is to try my best to get into the top 12 but I feel there are quite a few people aiming for it so I'm just hoping to get into a good DK groove over the summer. I was kind of forced not to play in the WCR3 because of a lot of pressure on my studies but I will most likely take part in the upcoming ones

I know it's way too early to call anything yet. I just thought it was ironic since I was the Wildcard bubble boy at KO2.

Oh you mean for KO2 Day 2. I thought you were talking about your bubblish position right now on the TG scoreboard, where you could sneak into the Top 12 if enough people can't make it to KO3.

I actually never got the story on who exactly moved on to Day 2 at KO2, and how many there were. Was it 8?

I guess I should have said "also". The irony is that I've been on the wrong side of the Wildcard bubble twice now.

There were 18 original Wildcards and 9 moved on to Sunday. Everyone above me in the final standings who was a Wildcard made it to Day 2.

It's on my calendar; but live in different hemisphere, so no can't go.

I assume it will have live streaming so will call in sick on Monday (that will be a Sunday in the US).

...Unless you keep playing and get better!

Brian, I've seen you get like halfway through the game on your first man! If you keep playing, I'm sure you can get a 850k killscreen, or thereabouts. Don't sell yourself short!

Besides, I PROMISE YOU, the Kong Off is most fun because you get to hang out with all the people. So, in the end, it's not a big deal whether or not you do amazing (but, indeed, try your best!).

True. At the Kong Off 2, the most boring part for me was to play Donkey Kong, lol. Hanging around was the fun part.

Updated with responses so far. Kinda made an assumption about Vincent and Hank, but I think it's pretty safe...

Anybody else?

I'll... probably go? ;>
However, if TG/Richie Knucklez don't accept MAME scores as a "top 12" score, as many people have been suggesting as a possibility, then I'm not going to. :)
