marimari memorial cup v (2012/07/29 10:00 PM EST)

[daigong]

It's that time to polish off your golf clubs in honour of a Fallen HiPster...hard to imagine it's been six years ago that we lost marimari aka Kyle Bouvier.

His selfless acts and being an extremely positive nice guy, doesn't even begin to describe what he meant to us. One of the greatest has ever seen. Check out the Classic Threads Museum for a taste of his impact. Kyle had contributed so much to the Hello! Project fandom by sharing many materials at all the sites. He was a regular in the IRC and took part in online games like Pangya. When we learned that throughout his life, he was confined to a wheelchair due to muscular dystrophy, it made us respect him even more. To overcome those odds, to be with us HiPsters.

July 30th marks the day when we pour a little liquor for our homie ... we continue the tradition we started in 2008, we play the game marimari loved so much. Just good times hanging out, reducing our strokes (for once) and smacking around balls into the rough. The weekend closest to marimari memorial day is July 29th so LET'S TOURNEY.

The winner gets $100 in their name donated in honor of marimari's favorite charity - Make a Wish Foundation (http://wish.org)

Go to the Akihabara's PANGYA (aka Albatross18 aka Loligolf) thread for more information on how to play. Patch em up! http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=16264.0

Let me be the first to say, it's an honor and a privilege to compete in memory of marimari.
I consider this annual event to be one of the biggest reasons why our community is so special.

So count me in!
Even if you're bad at the game, even if you've never played it before, I encourage everyone to give it a shot!

[Slack]

It seriously can't just be Daigong and me doing this.

This thread needs to be seen a lot more than it has.

[J-Triumf]

Count me in! Decided to blow the dust off this game today; lots of updates to download! Hopefully nothing comes up to stop me from participating.

[pikapikapika]

sure!! if it's 10am I can make it, 10pm I'll be asleep or getting ready to go to work ;a;

edit:
ohh sorry! if it's 10pm EST it'll be like 3am for me, I can't stay up that late, sorry guys

[mode107]

Count me in boys.

Sorry for the delay; I wanted to see if my other laptop was in good enough shape to handle the game. Just finished downloading it.

[Pauekn]

I unfortunately never got the chance to meet (not even online) Marimari, but he sounds like a really awesome guy. I am downloading Pangya because I would be happy to get my butt kicked to the honour of Marimari. Count me in!




... If I got the time right, then I will wake up in time. I just hope I don't get the time wrong and sleep too long tomorrow...

[Rei-chan]

My current computer can't handle Pangya, but I'll cheer from the IRC!

I'm glad it didn't end up just being Daigong and me playing.
I was getting kinda bummed out that it was going to be just us.
This is one of those traditions I feel should be kept to remind us of what jph!p is all about!
Next year, I hope we can have even more participants!

[kuro808]

congrads slack!

Sorry for bailing out, it just happened that I was needed to do something atm, I hope to participate fully next time

[daigong]

 CONGRATS Slackius check your email, we have made a $100 donation to Make-A-Wish on your behalf


NO DOUBT! Let's get more players on the scene. The Pink Wiz course was really fun, I liked the magic carpet.

eta:

And it reminds me of what marimari lived for, to be part of us even tho his life was cut short - he made the most of it. and a charity like Make-a-wish


Take time to donate and spread the word on what they do, making kids lives special. Make every second of your life special 

Always Slack, July 30 we raise our glasses for marimari. Never forget you, homie.
