OMG!
My birthday!
I wish I could be there!
I miss Melee!

Any one who has the time and ability to go should check Melee out.
They're a bunch of cool cats who can party (at least the ones I hung out with were!)

So many events, so little time...

Mordor visits the Colorado Melee crowd quite a bit, and we always have an excellent time. It's great to experience different games. They have lots of great people there, and we've made some really good friends.

I went to their March event last year and had a fabulous time. They were very welcoming and fun to be around. Here are pictures from last year;
