My daughter was at the CFO run at 9PM PST with me. She was the only KOATTA there, and we had 4 ATTA members. My daughter asked me if the other adults knew she is a kid. She was somewhat apprehensive to be in the midst of adults for fear that they would not want to battle with her. She did not think that she will be accepted amongst the adult, but she was. Even though she got sad in the cog battle, she had a great time. This was her first time to, knowingly, play with adults aside from me. This CFO battle ended up being a 3-women run in the craning and stomping. My daughter thought we, the adults who continued with the battle, were crazy for taking this on.
She has no plans in attending all of combo runs this weekend, but she thinks that the 3-women CFO attempt, was hilarious and insane, and it was worth seeing on my computer.
What I am trying to say is, it meant a lot to her, that Scooter Wondertoon, Duke Wally Crunchytoon and Simba, were there to play with her, even though, she is a kid.
The KOATTA are not going to be with us all the time, they are making plans of their own as we speak. For the meantime, let us give them our support.
I think future KOATTA events, with invitation to the ATTA, which has been suggested before, is an excellent idea.
Have a wonderful day.
