Excellent news. I just came back from my French class and found the forum.

By the way, what is this thread for? I don't understand.

[Naranoc]

Congrats on the new forum Loads of empty space to do with as you wish

How many people posted in the thread that he had previously?

[Cindy19]

Congratulation!

Great to see Kei get his Forum But I was sad that he lost to Juan Still Juan is playing excellent tennis right now. He has won 4 Tournaments in a row

I think I will be here as much as possible. I know the people in here will be nice Does anyone know where Kei will play next? Cindy I have started playing Mah Jong.
But what are yin and yang? Sorry I don't think I spelled them right. My spelling in English is bad enough so I'm completely lost with another language

You know I have the same problem. Especially now since I have to be careful with my wrist I just can't go to post in all the places I want to post now I just like too many players I guess

*esther* since we are going to go with the separate Tournament threads this thread either needs to be closed or merged with the chat thread. I don't know if you have ever done this before? So you need to PM a Super Moderator--I would suggest either ~*Carlita*~ or Neely and tell them what you would like done with this thread. And somehow we need to find out where Kei is going to play next?

I think i will change the title to a tournament thread once i get to know his next tournament.
