aim : You are a reliable guy, man. You were always willing to offer a bit of advice or some words of encouragement in order to get some of our newer users pumped up for their matches, and in terms of battling, you always delivered. I am very proud of your performance, and it was fun being your teammate for over 8 weeks. Looking forward to the next time.
Oglemi : I originally bought you cause I had heard rumours that you were decent at DPP. Well, moreso than that, you proved to be extremely reliable as a battler, coming to the IRC as often as anyone, always willing to talk/help if needed. I appreciate you helping me with the DPP testing, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavours. Thanks for doing an awesome job, both on and off the court.
badabing : idc that you only played one match. You will always be my bae and true friend. Luv u dawg.
innovamania : If there's anyone that can prove that stigma is bullshit, and that integrity always wins, it's you man. I originally had reservations picking you cause of some stupid drama with another user, and you showed me how silly I was for ever feeling this way about you. You stepped up big, and you kept us in some pretty big weeks. It was a privilege to play with you, and (somewhat) get to know you a bit better :P
49 : In the short time that we spent together in SPL, I learned to really respect your opinion and drive. Despite your conflict with aim, you persevered as a teammate and really clutched with your last few performances. I look forward to us playing together again, friend, thank you for everything.
Kushalos : Dude... where to start and finish... I don't want to turn this into a huge sapfest, but despite our history, you kept a cool head and played for the team, working very close with 49. I respect you sir, and I hope this tour gave us the chance to start over again.
reyscarface : UU Master Rey, you brought me into a new world for competitive battling, and for this, I will always be grateful. Thank you for your reliability and success on the battlefield, and for showing me that you can, in fact, care about a team that you don't manage (hehe). You were a true #battlegirl, and I really appreciate everything you've done for me.
Christo The Gr8 : Man, what can I even say to my UUPL Champ Christo. We developed a good friendship over these last 8 weeks. You're a breakout battler dude, and I expect great things from you now.
Godsend : Although you weren't really around for the first 4 weeks, you came around in the latter half and really showed us that teammate support meant something. If I can advise anything, it's to assertively participate more by hopping on IRC/Skype whenever possible, as this will help establish better communication with all of your teammates, and improve your social experience in these tours. However, please don't think that I made this shoutout just to lecture you... you were still a positive presence, and I wish you the best of luck as you continue with this tier.
Euphonos : You, Christo, and r0ady made this super PS core that made me beyond proud of you. Your ideas and innovations were fresh as fuck, and you were extreeeemely committed to the team. Keep playing, and I see us doing this again next year ;)
Tomahawk : I wish I could've spent more time getting you and Oglemi to work with each other so that I could've sent you out there more. I thank you for your patience, Tomahawk, and I hope you gained something of use during our time together. Thank you for your positive presence and your willingness to work with Oglemi, it will certainly not be forgotten anytime soon.
R0ady : muh boi. Tyler, I always appreciated your willingness to work with your teammates and rise up as a sub on a few occasions. You definitely contributed to a few successful victories for your teammates, and your presence was necessary, beyond a doubt. I am very happy that I purchased you, you exceeded my expectations, and alongside Euphonos/Christo, I expect great things from you.
xShiba : Nothing bad to say here, except I wish you were a little more involved with the IRC/Skype aspect of UUPL so that we could've heard your voice more. Thanks for stepping up when we needed you, and best of luck to all your future involvements in this tier.

IronBullet93: Thank you for doing what no one else could've done (properly), and host this clusterfuck tour. I can't even begin to tell you how much we appreciate you working your butt off for us, Ironbullet93. Love you forever and always.
To my fellow Managers, thank you so much. This was new for me, and I was really grateful to play against some of the old and new greats, including
FLCL and
fatty. I really had a lot of fun, and hope to see you all next year for more UUPL action.
To my tier leaders,
Sam and
Hikari. I'm not sure how much you were involved in the decision making process, but thanks a million for including me as a manager. I am both grateful and humbled (but only a little bit) by the experience.
To the participants of UUPL: haha it's ogre let's go to sleep now.
