I guess I'll introduce myself although I've been posting for a while. I've been a DOA fan since I was about 8 starting with DOA3. I played it at a family friend's house and since then I've been hooked to the series. I didn't really start playing DOA much until I got my 360 4 years ago along with DOA4. I played DOA4 casually since I wasn't really good at the game and I considered myself too young to join tournaments (online and offline). I played at the IPL event at HIN a few weeks ago and it was a great experience considering it was my first tournament and my first offline event (although I played against Vanessa of all people in my first round match >_<). Hopefully there will be more tournaments in my local area considering that I'm a high school student who can't make it to any of event held outside a 40 mile radius.
