I was thinking about staring a team like this. I'd love to join.

A low post count and desire to take part in the tournament is what's important. If you can fulfill these criteria then you're in.
Ability is not an issue!

So, we're up to three or four members so far? Not a bad start.

Nice! I like it.
I've also come up with one, as you can see. Took me ages, then it turned out it was over the size regulation(!) so I had to redo it AGAIN.
If anyone else wants to make their own, it should not be larger than 200 x 50

I think MA7 should be captain, he does have an incredibly low post count and also organized this amazing team.

So with my vote, that's at least four votes for MA7... looks like a majority. Congrats on your promotion, Captain MA7!

Hey everyone, make sure to put down Team Lurker for Desired team in the Registration thread and vote for MA7 for team captain. Also, should we put the team status as closed now that we have 7 people?

OK I've confirmed the team and the 'official' team banner in the registration thread.
I've used my own banner as the official one - not to knock themachinist's of course - but if I'm gonna be el capitain then I guess I'll abuse the little power I have
If anyone else wants to make their own banner then that's cool too, obviously.
Varuga - it seems you need to repost your registration to be recognized by Edge as a Lurker
I guess all that's left for me to say is,
BE ATTITUDE FOR GAINS
and watch those post counts!
Go team! HU-ah!

I have an confenssion to make team, I got really drunk last night and made a bunch of posts, pushing me into the dreaded 3 digit post count. I feel horrible about it and I hope this doesn't compromise my position in Team Lurker. I'll go back to lurking, I promise.

Hey guys just wanted to let you know,
I found out I gotta go to my cousin's wedding from the 24th-27th. That's the tail end of Konami week (i think) so basically I'll be able to play the first 3-4 days or so then I'll be gone for the last 3.

Enjoy the wedding
Anyone got any of the seibu games to work yet? I'm having problems.

Well, that's better than me... I'm actually getting married on Sept. 1, so Konami week will be spent getting things set up and ready. Hopefully I can get some time in on the game of the week, but probably not a whole lot.
