Okay, last sappy comment for now, I promise - and I won't do 3k+ words like I did on the results journal.
PTB has been a truly magical experience. I walked in a nervous high school student with rapidly declining grades, little-to-no faith in my writing ability, and low hopes for myself.
I leave as a confident, happy soon-to-be animation student about to run his own OCT, who has regrets regarding his run here but is MORE than ready to give writing another shot and outdo himself. Crystal Island, here I come.
I'll never forget this tournament. Thanks, everyone. I really love you guys.
