-------------------------------------------------------------

MCKUMA: Well dudes. It's really been a whole year! I know I have been in a couple of killing games but this event really has been a unique break from the usual (even with some problematic contestants....)

A.S.S.: I AM PROGRAMMED TO FEEL SOME AMOUNT OF ENJOYMENT FROM THIS EVENT BY DEFAULT, BUT I WILL GENUINELY CONCUR THAT THERE HAS BEEN INTERESTING DEVELOPMENTS FROM THIS TOURNAMENT THAT GO BEYOND MY FORCED ENJOYMENT

MCKUMA: That said, dudes. I think it's about time to show you all why we are called the hosts of this event, upupupupup!

-------------------------------------------------------------
TELE: To be honest, working on TFA has been one of the most interesting and significant experiences in my life. While I came in relatively later than the rest of staff, I am more than happy with the amount I've done to help TFA, and it helped me become way more comfortable with my spot as an artist. Additionally, I am really glad to meet so many friends from this tournament. Not only from people from TFA, but also the lovely people over at Mashup Week and PRIZM.

Overall it's an experience I won't regret and I feel like a lot of you feel the same way. I hope you all enjoy what we got and I love all of you! (Also I think this is the only time I am going to break the "Jewel" moniker lol)

XINOS: while i'm not too around or active in the tourney scene, it's really cool to see a project that started from my group of friends get this far, being one of the people who helped conceptualize tfa before its publicity, it's been a whole year with a wonderful team and a wonderful audience! i hope you guys enjoy this track i made and a big happy birthday to TFA!!! :) (P.S. it's weird seeing our silly group name of "Par Airlines" be spread out farther now, but i welcome the surprise)

LEMO: i joined shortly after the initial announcement and it's been such a fun ride ever since, TFA is genuinely one of my favorite tournaments and it makes me happy to see that this project started by my friends has gone this far :) happy birthday, tfa!!

JEWEL: Additionally, I would like to thank all of the staff that have contributed to TFA at any point in time. You've all helped make this tournament something special and I have been glad to have the opportunity to work with all of you

While Rick and Morty didn't have a long time to stay here, they definitely use their time here to leave one of the strongest impressions among our contestants. Some may say they are were abrasive, vulgar, insane, and even some (Markiplier) even refused to comment. Yet, all of us can agree, despite their outlandish and sometimes violent nature, that these two have the strong and unbreakable bond between a grandfather and his grandson.

The journey for both of you may have ended too soon here, but we wish you both the best in your future adventures across the multiverse.
