tF - the Family and Justice for Sebastian benefit tourney
date: november 7th, 2010
location: TBA , Gainesville,FL
Game Format: Call of Duty MW2 2v2
register on our forums for more info on the tourney
This young man was taking from his Family and his friends too soon. I had read on facebook about Sebastian being a big online gamer(360) , so I got in contact with a local police officer i know and with crimestoppers and compiled an event to honor someone who would of been at home within our community, as he held Family and friends close to his heart. Sebastian was the type of gamer that loved alot of the things we as a community hold dear and stand for. I am working with Sebastians brother Boris on this event, and want to thank him for allowing us to hold the event in Sebastians honor.
This event we hope will bring family, friends, and strangers out to honor Sebastian doing something he loved and one of the games he loved, and to learn more about Sebastian. And the main focus being to bring in more money for the reward to help catch the person or persons responsible for this senseless act of violence.

The following writing is from the above mentioned site a little about Sebastian.
About Sebastian:
Sebastian Ochensius died on June 29, 2010, when an unknown person broke into his home in the Bentwood subdivision in northwest Gainesville, Florida, and shot him multiple times. The attack occurred in the late hours of the night, while the family slept and Sebastian was in his family room. Sebastian’s father heard the noise from the shooting found his son on the floor. He held Sebastian in his arms as the 16-year-old passed away.
The killer is at large and being sought by police.
Sebastian came to the United States from Chile on Christmas Eve of 1994. Sebastian was only one year and 21 days old, when the plane arrived at Miami International Airport late that evening carrying him, his parents and his three older siblings — a brother and two sisters. Everything they brought to their new country was packed in their suitcases.
Sebastian’s uncle picked up the family members and drove them to Gainesville on Dec. 25. In a way, their arrival was their Christmas present. The Ochsenius family had left its native country because Sebastian’s father had business challenges. Larger competitors were making it difficult for him to make a living.
Sebastian’s grandparents had moved to Miami in 1988 and later to Gainesville; Sebastian’s father immediately went to work there, taking on two to three jobs at a time to support his young family. Once he had saved enough money, he started his own carpet-cleaning business.
Sebastian, or “Tan” as his family called him, attended schools in Alachua County. He was well liked and an excellent student. He had all A’s and only three B’s in his three years of middle school. As a freshman and sophomore at Buchholz High School, he earned A’s in Advanced Placement courses. He performed so well that he was ranked third out of a class of 525 students with a grade point average of 4.688. Even though he would have been only a junior this fall, he was receiving letters from colleges around the country asking him to apply for admission. Sebastian’s plan was to one day become a lawyer.
School did not define Sebastian’s teenage years. He loved to spend time with friends and family. He always helped around the house, and helped out his brother whenever he needed; all the siblings were very close.
Sebastian also made friends because he was funny and fun to be around. And Sebastian was a warmhearted person who had good friends. He believed the best in people. |

Six's thoughts on Reach Midnight Release - Gville,FL |

These are my thoughts on the event held at GameStop in Gainesville, FL.
Well first, Mrs. Six and I ate some Chinese we ordered from our
favorite restaurant. I then called my GameStop to check on the status of
the door, I was surprised to here that there were people already lined
up at the door! Well we then geared up the tF Attack Vehicle (Saturn
Vue) and headed out on our mission. Upon arrival there were about ten
people already set up in chairs and other random relaxation devices. We
got one of the best parking spots in front; I walked in to check out the
way the event would be handled.
Now that the GameStop was
under a new manager the event was going a lot differently than I
remember, they stated there would be no pre check in or check out
receipts given. I was number 12 in line; they were running a tournament
of sorts inside after 10pm. I was not interested in the tournament.
After we were there and while the tourney was going on they decided that
they were going to do the finalizing of receipts after they said they
weren't, it went fairly smooth except for the mix up and a lot of people
getting ticked off due to them showing up late and the line stretching
for so long, oh well getting there pays off early my friends!!I met a
lot of people I have met in other midnight launches. One guy,
OldSchoolSoldier, and I talked the whole evening and he promised to hit
me up online and get some gaming on!
After awhile the idiots
start to show themselves and boredom set in, a few younger guys started
kicking around a soccer ball like they were Pele’s after a few missed
kicks and then it happened; they hit the tF Attack Vehicle! I caught
one of them laughing like it was funny, I proceeded to yell in their
direction, “I don't find it funny, I wouldn't hit my car again.” then
you could hear a pin drop.
After Sitting there for what felt like
an eternity, it got time to organize the lines, this time I noticed
that a few guys had "stopped" to talk with their friends this time
OldSchoolSoldier beat me to the punch and told the manager about these
line crashers, I was really wanting to run my mouth, but the manager
beat me to it, and got the line in order. After a short raffle, in which
I didn’t win anything, we lined up. By 12:06 AM, I was in my car and
rolling past a line that stretched all the way down to the Books a
Million approximately the length of a football field; the main reason I
always go there two hours early.
I hope everyone else had a great
time meeting great people creating memories and got to see some funny
stuff like I did, GameStop never disappoints me.

Bejeweled 2- 4 out of 5, Its a fun game that links up to your facebook
so you can compare to your friends. If you like puzzles games this is a
classic. free
Pocket God- 4 out of 5, This game is superior for
wasting time. There are so many things you can do, and you play god for
little people on an island, what is better than that? .99 cents
Stone Loops- 3 out of 5, Another classic Puzzle game, very hard though after so many levels. free
Tap
tap revenge- 5 out of 5, Just like guitar hero and rock band apps.
Always a lot of fun to rock out to songs and they have a pretty good
selection of songs and you can download more. free
I Bowl- 3 out
of 5, you actually swing your iphone like your bowling, pretty much like
a wii game. its fun but gets old quick! free
The Price is Right-
4 out of 5, Has a ton of the games from the real show. The only setback
is that it is very repetitive and the prices are different than you
would guess! 2.99 i think
Oregon Trail- 5 out of 5, just like the
original with better graphics and some different games. always a
classic, and always fun! was 4.99 when i bought it, don't know now
Max
Injury lite, 1 out of 5, The only fun thing about this game is throwing
the dummy down the stairs and what not trying to cause him a lot of
pain and hitting multiple things at once. free
MiniGolf 99- 3 out
of 5, lots of holes, 99 to be exact haha, some are challenging and most
are fun. good game for kids and time waster. you have to unlock
characters and things like that. .99 cents
Capture the Castle- 3
out of 5, Would get a higher score but way to short. maybe if i paid for
this one it would have more levels. Its a catapult game where you have
to destroy their castle and the people in a certain amount of shots, and
you get powerups and things like that. Cool concept. free
I just
picked up civilization revolution for free the other day for free. Its a
fun game where you try to be the best in one area rather than others of
course and build your cities as much as you can. Good for while your at
work and need to blow some time!
I couldn't find any links
or anything, one because I don't know where to look but if you want any
of these games just do a search with your phone.
Thats it from HighRisks corner, more to come once I find more games that interest me. |

OH BOY!!
Story of my life – and of my current gaming
career…..Since the inception of the 1st Xbox – I have never bought a
brand new Xbox or system. The first XBOX that I ever got I received as a
gift from my current wife. Then when the 360 came out – my brother, who
worked at a Blockbuster at the time, got me a refurbished one for my
birthday. Needless to say – as many of you know – the 360’s had this
GREAT problem the RRoD (Red Ring of Death). Well from the time that my
little brother (tF Adex) got me my first Xbox – to just recently I have
gone through 6 Xbox 360’s. The first four I had sent back to Microsoft
for free repair – but the last two I could not get fixed because of the
fact that they wanted to charge me money to have them fixed. But then news came…..news of the BRAND NEW, black, sleek and SEXY Xbox 360. Once I
saw the thing – my jaw dropped, and I was ready for one. But one small
problem – I had a functioning Xbox at the time. This is a story of how I
managed to lose my 6th Xbox and get the brand new sleek black
one…ENJOY!

The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed
to provide information about video and computer game content so parents
can make informed purchasing decisions. ESRB ratings have two parts:
rating symbols suggest age appropriateness for the game and content
descriptors indicate elements in a game that may have triggered a
particular rating or concern.
