I have a good article in mind for an issue this fall or winter, just too busy right now to do it the way I want to. I am planning on submitting something later in the year.

This issue was so-so for me, I'll admit it. I still love it and support all that are involved, The way I see it, unless I am contributing I really don't have much room to gripe about everyone else's efforts.

The Tweak in our mailboxes is a very special thing, we all should plan on getting involved at some point or another.

Default It's Great

Every time I receive my issue of the Tweak I enjoy reading it. I have yet to see a redundant article. As long as each issue talks about something different, the magazine will be a blast to read. This magazine is exclusive. I love it.

Default Good issue

I've enjoyed all the issues to this point. This one was no exception. I'm a hard grader which is why I hate grading these things. As always, I want more "how to" articles but most things have been covered. Looking forward to working with you on upcoming youth articles.

Anywho.....keep up the good work!

Shabby J, looking forward to the article as you already know.

Maurice, glad you like everything so far

Steelerfan, we would love to have more updates from leagues and tourneys as well, but we need someone who is going to those events to send articles in to us so that we can get them in the magazine. We have done a basic painting article, as well as a how-to make your own decals. Check the back issues...

TV's Chachi, make some more KISS figures, those are awesome!

Detroitchild, what how-to would you like to see? We need to know, send Matt or me an e-mail.

To all others:

We need everyone’s contributions. If you have an idea, send it to us. If you want to write an article, write away and send it to us. Don't worry if your English isn't very good. We can and do go over every article and make grammar and spelling corrections. We can also co-write for you as well. We can take something like this:

The kowtoun turny was the schizzle, man, guys was humpin and bumpin and bangen each udder til the son came up agin. The next day. Jon beet Joe who was the dude who beet the otter dude when he miss kicked and the cat ran off with the thang in his mouth it was to funy I almoss pasd out. Props to Jon who wun.

Into this:

The Cowtown tournament will go down in history as one of the greatest events in MF history. Guys were playing at a level of intensity that was simply too incredible to describe. The action was non-stop. Indeed, the coaches played throughout the night and didn't stop until the next morning when the sun was shining. A new champion was crowned after a fierce battle between two rather unknown coaches, who worked their way up through the brackets. Joe beat the defending champion to make it to the final round, while John handily won in his bracket. The championship game was a real nail biter and came down to a field goal attempt by Joe on the game's final play. The kicked barely missed the uprights, and when a cat ran into the room and ran off, with the felt ball hanging from his mouth, the room exploded in laughter. It was a fitting end to a great weekend of play. Congratulations to John, the 2009 Cowtown champion!

How do we do it? Easy, we have the best phonic-trained monkeys that bananas can buy working at the typewriters!

first i'd like to say thanks to matt and wolf and everyone involved with the TWEAK and all in the M.F.C.A. , to me this tweak is the best.
I'm prejudice because I'm on the cover and there is a very nice write-up about me and the big write-up about miggle with me and Norbert in the championship game and all the fun everyone had at miggle, to me it was the BEST miggle ever.
but thats just me

A GREAT Edition!!! and the miggle tournament will go down in history as one of the greatest events in MF history, but thats just me too.

Guys, this was a great edition. The video design stuff was awsome, the league building, older game versions, the Brawl and Miggle stories, Big Jim story, the intro- all great stuff! The Tweak magazine is GOLD for this hobby. They will be even more valuable over time as we look back at the history of the hobby. Great job to ALL that contributed. I for one learned some interesting things about the green room rumble (before I was in the hobby) and it just made me appreciate some of the recent history.

Great job
Joe
