hehe, this is so true. Kiit thinks it is bad back home, in the Columbus humidity my cards curl like potatoe chips!!!

When I finally did sleeve my deck Saturday morning... Don was still asleep, and probably having very pleasent dreams, i.e. he was mentally relaxed knowing my cards would be safe for at least a day of play lol.

We don't, our poor poor scout lost I think 2 controller of souls to him because of that, but gained I think 2 minutte dance (that were in good condition cus Dut never builds with those resources (I think I might {maybe with  our scout and my brother} start a foillife protection group with the sole purpose to take all his foil cards other then characters and with no more foils in sets we will just take the rares and ultra rares, to protect them of course). by chance are you going to come to our regionals at the end of july?

Our Scout got the better end of that trade lol! And they weren't in that bad of shape, just 'used'.

Don is way out east and I highly doubt he has the moola/time to take off near the end of July.

Also... you should stop worrying about my cards and more about your own deck! Lest you like getting stomped on all regionals long ^^

Then you shouldn't worry if I take cards that I need for free from you. also, take a week off before regionals, rent a bus and go pick up players from winapeg, edmonton and whatever other city/towns you could think of to bring more players ^_^

do it and you gain a new title.

Hey dutpotd,

I'm glad that you finally made a top eight. You worked your hard to make that top cut. Especially how you got screwed at CanNats missing buy three SoS points I was at fault on that one I should have won my last two games. Don't worry about the dog ears.  Now you know what it takes to make into top eight. Now you are going to have to learn to win it all(Worlds), you have 5 weeks to prepare. I guess Calgary Regionals is a good start. Since we should have well over 20 players just from Calgary if they can all make it.

I just wanted to say i'm a huge fan of your reports and I come to this forum after every major tourney to read them.

Throwing that out there, I use to do reports, but I've gotten to a point where I want to keep a very low profile on the forums so I stopped doing. Yours always remind me of what I liked about typing them up.

Thank you, it really means a lot to me to get this type of feedback. I'm appreciative of everyone that reads and comments, but it is always best when players who I write about and that I hold a high level of respect for post in reply to my seemingly endless ramblings

I'm not sure what is more enjoyable - typing them up (remembering the great time I had), - or the back and forth replies with the friends and opponents that I can't wait to play against again and again ^^

In any case, I've never been a journal type of guy but, I am learning the benefits of recounting my travels with every report I write.

You'd better shell out for the big G of cons!!! Wouldn't be the same w/o you, and who else can I count on to take Ibuki far into the tourney? (well, probably quite a few people, but I'd be cheering for yours)
