HAVKIN's UPdate BLOG post.
its 3 AM CST, I just got home from vacation i had to... another week away from home was killer, My life is Going Crazy so i decided to cut my vacation short and come home for a few days before we leave for Ohio. lets go back to when my vacation started 15 days ago... ok not that far lets go back about 8 days. i had got to the Lake house in the lovely lake of the Ozarks and really was craving some Halo due to how i had no wireless net i could not practice well i had visited a lan center for years in the past figured id show how and play abit cuz cam was really mad i could not get on. i called them they were closed so i asked if i could buy a wireless net adp told them my story and about my team and stuff, they said come in tonight lets see you play see if your legit. so i went in and long story short they ended up giving me a 120gb HDD, WNA, and CoD: BO FREEz baby so Huge Shout out to REPLAY games (they are like a sponsor to us now) anyway i got back to the house and started to game after not playing halo for 4 days i felt out of practice and it showed dropping Poor numbers it cost me more than i wanted and cam was not pleased with my preformance. the next night we GBed a few times winning our first and losing the next then we played TLN people and it was sloppy i had not gone Positive for the second night in a row. our team was fighting and it was really starting to hurt our gameplay thursday we played a nice few GBs lost em all but needless to say we worked out some kinks and started to trudge up hill back to normal BtR status but the fighting kept going on and my Stats where still making Tiger Woods jealous now its Friday night and cam is over at allen's gaming next to each other Shane is in a good mood and im felling a bit silly we played a game and lost by 5 it was a great Zealot slayer and i was feeling like my old self i went even and threw up some big assest i was not happy but pleased and then the fighting began whatever we fixed it the best part is the botherhood that i feel playing for BtR came back and what better way then Singing the Lion King for over an hour and cracking jokes and really feeling like a team again i fixed some big problems with my game and we rocked again Sat was more of the same then sunday hits and my astro a40s mix amp to controller cord shorted out and i cant talk to anyone i was ticked off and a little worried about how i was gonna practice im working on that but i decided that taking another few days of vaction would really hinder me come tourney time so i came home now its 3:13 in the morning and i feel like tomorrow is gonna be spent fixing my astros and getting all things squared away for cinci i gotta wash my cloths and game!
Highlights were really accepting that BtR is gonna fight but we are great friends and we really enjoy being around each other. we all can sing and Yet again Hole to Hole is best!
pics or it didn't happen. lol
but seriously, we do appreciate the cheering on. We will place the best we can, then back to work on stuff. We are gradually becoming a better team each day we play together. We've shown a big improvement in how we play, the most noticeable being our scrims against a team that held a 24 ranked on gamebattles before. I have a feeling we will soon start taking games from them :)
<-- wishing he could practice with his team 18/7 until NGL tournament date... to bad thats not feasible...
only 3 days until we leave for that tournament...
wow.. I can't believe how fast this tournament just caught up to us... November 20th is just around the corner o.O

Lastly... within a week or 2 after the Cincinnati tournament, I'll be writting up a small blog. I'm not much of a writter, but I figure writing out my career will help me see where I've come from, let you guys know where I've come from, and simply do something I've really haven't done before. *shurg* (had to post this here so that I'll have some sort of pressure to do it or I may back out lol)
Thanks for all the support yall!
Allen "minor pain"

Damn, Yall are gonna make me sign up for Twitter.
lol finding out I could keep up with pro teams to see whats on their minds, team changes, possible open scrim slots...... etc and that I could easily update to friends and fans whats on my mind, tourney updates etc... lead me to sign up for twitter.
and to think... I avoided twitter for 2-3 years saying ill never sign up for that.... ah well... lol
lol Twitter is cool i just never got into it till i got on BtR and people started reading what i was tweeting lol!
How am i to know if a celebrity dies without Twitter ;)
And come on BtR, you must rep the TLN this weekend with good performance
Oh we Will! Trust me im playing my brains out!
well.. im glad im on the other side of the station from you... I don't wanna have to wash brains out of my shirt... ew...
but yea, we'll be playing our bestest, but the competition looks fierce... we know that seed #5 and another team that used to be seed 24ish on gamebattles will be attending. But we aren't giving into the pressure :)
cuz we could of beat the 5th seed if we did not have some stupid pushes lol!
I'm very proud to say this thread is the second most popular thread on the TLN forums! We're all rooting for you guys :D
yeah right behind MO MADNESS :)
WOOHOO!!

Lol that's why I said "do something big" :P
Can i have the first merchandise signed by all of you? lol
OK Knight here it’s the day before I leave for Cinci and my mind is going a mile a min I gotta pack all my stuff get my plane ticket all square and all that fun Jazz but practice last night was amazing we really fixed problems and we fixed them with ease truth be told we got 5-0ed on flag TWICE then got some fantastic advice and tweaked our strat and ended up winning the next flag game 4-3 leading the game 4-2 for almost 5 mins and we started off great getting 2 flags to 0 it was truly a great match. I seem to finally be getting my crap together after playing poorly for almost a week just repeating bad habits but I truly feel like I got my skills back to a good pace im still not 110% but im like 80% so im on the right track. Its good to know that we are all on a skill level that allows us to change and adapt to the new styles people suggest it shows we really are all talented players. Anyway as most of you know due to us beating into your heads NGL is gonna be graced by BtR this weekend and let me tell you im very stoked to play with whole team and finally meet the people I have been smashing every second of time I got into halo with. The TLNC has really backed us up on this road and im pleased that we are finally making our first stop and getting a chance to prove what we can do. 7 years ago I would of never placed my self in this dream im blessed to live most of you know my story and the losses I have taken but this weekend is all about me and my success and getting to share it with people who deserve it just as much if not more than me. I fly out 12:12 tomorrow morning to really get a kick start on the rest of my MLG career and its not to prove her I came out on top or to rub it in to the haters its about ME! There will be plenty of funny moments photos and Video clips we will also be signing plenty of autographs and if you want a full BtR team autograph please Tweet me, Magik, or minor’s Twitter pages with your fav moment with BtR or a BtR member. Also we will be giving shoutouts to all our TLNC fans in a huge thankyou video! Anyway I gotta pack thanks for reading my Mini blog shoutout to Cam, Allen, Shane, Replay Games, Luke, Shelly, Gym, TLN and the P’s thanks for believing in me and believing in BtR we are Ready to make you proud of us!

bro i have had people say they wanted stuff autographed, Dee wants something, my Family wants some, i got some Fans in St. Chuck that do. Luke said he wanted some stuff. man where is your sense of enjoyment lol its not worth much but it dont need to be if people want them then im more that honored to sign something it feels cool to be asked for that.
Okay I am pulling an all nighter right now for my exam i have around noon to one tomorrow and I am taking a break to say a few things for this tournament. I am excited to finally be able to compete in a tournament with a team i put time into because I have never got to do so before this so I'm pumped to start playing. I feel like going into cincy that I am playing on top of my game individually and I finally got my snipe to catch fire at the best time. I am going to give it my best going into this tournament and do all I can to help our team get as far as possible. I know that when it comes to relating with the fans that I have not been as outgoing as the rest of the team, but I do thank everyone for the support they have shown by helping us prepare, etc. Also thank you Itchy for letting me use your mix amp for this event that was a pretty clutch move on your part. I feel left out with everyone on the team not posting the twitter account that I of all people have had way longer than they have haha but follow me @rasha_fasha. I will try to remember to give a few updates out throughout the next 2 days at what I am up to. Wish us luck everybody and I will have a blog discussing everything leading up to the tournament and the tournament itself.
I would like to thank my dad for paying for me to go to this tournament, if it wasn't for him BtR would not be going (with me at least). Itchy for providing me his mixamp to use this weekend, that was a hella cool move on your part and the people who helped us practice for NGL when we couldn't find teams to play. shout outs to Cpt. Awesome for being awesome and going down with me this weekend, Dalton (we are still the best and longest duo out there), Tay and Little John who are two awesome people, Cam for putting this team together, Impended (though I hate your damn shotgun), and anyone else I forgot who thinks they should be on here.
Good luck guys! :D
