See you next week!

OK everyone, we are about one week out from the next installment of AC Throwdown. There should be some pretty good competition this month. The champion from the first competition, Shinku, is returning to defend his title. He has a sick Ryu. Ryan aka "Dingaling10" is coming back to get some revenge on the big stage. Also coming,there are some new bloods to ACTD, but not to the fighting game scene. "Mr. Dieselton" from XBL will be in attendance, along with some of his friends. Others will come also, so if you think you can stand the pressure and keep those links crispy, come out and have some real fun. Again, casuals will start around 12 or so. The competition will start at 1. Concessions will be available, so you don't have to miss one moment of the action. Aight, i'll see you there, with major Claw. Peace!
