Well, after the BR that went on today in Gilbert Arizona I have finally seen something that soooo many players have had to deal with across the nation. At first I simply thought our little area was free from all that drama but I guess I was wrong all along. During the BR I had a first round loss for being late(not complaining) and then I lost my 3rd round. I went 3-2 overall in Masters, which I liked just so I could keep my rating somewhat average until Cities and states started. Well, during my last match my opponent was 3-1 at the time and had a chance to go into Finals if he won. He had it at first, but I came back and eventually took the game. This is where the sour grapes came in though. I basically got a dose of "Coodies" for not letting him win and ended up being the center of conversation for quite a few people who didn't understand "Why didn't you scoop?" :nonono: I gave them my answer and went on with my happy go lucky ways. And for alot of the judges who know me, I never get mad when I lose, and to ask my opponent to fold? That's simply ridiculous. So I was basically hated by them for about 20 minutes before I left. That's when I sorta felt bad, which irritated me until now.
I finally understand all those threads I've seen in the past. What is happening to this child's past time? I fear it's being dominated by lies and corruption. I have seen and heard many cases of 'groups' of players folding to each other and going after certain players just so they can land the top. I find this laughable and pathetic for the prize they're practically killing for.
I remember a time when this game was fun. Now it's becoming something of a rat race. Kill or be killed is the game.

I played BlissCat
Round 1 Loss for being late.
0-1
Round 2: vs. Ashley w Garchomp/Eggy MT
I helped with this deck and I was sad that I had to face a friend who I had just been in the car with for 30 minutes. It was pretty even at first. An exchange between Blisseys and Garchomp. My Holon FF saved me several times. It went down to 1-2 in my favor. She killed off my Blissey, giving me about 13 energy in my discard. I bring up Catty ex and Upstream for the game. It was a good match though.
1-1
Round 3 vs. Jakki w Garchomp/Sabeleye
I though greatttt, lol. I had a quick start and she had a decent one as well. Her setup wasn't as fast but her Disable was a nightmare along with her resistance to me. I knocked out a Sabeleye and Garchomp, but it went down to time and I couldn't get the game winning warp point to save my life, haha. It's always fun to play her though, it was great.
1-2
Round 4 vs. ??? w Draggy ex d/Fly d
He had a godly start of T2 Draggy AND Flygon and I was scared. I got my bench going and he couldn't get a bench. I laughed at how rediculous Blissey was when I boosted+3 Plus Power+Strength Charm and like 2 other energy. XD I just got ahead on prizes after killing 2 Draggys. It was me vs. a Dratini at the end for my win. It was a good game, even though he didn't think so.
2-2
Round 5 vs R-Gon
This was the game I knew I would lose. Though after he didn't delta draw anything I started building things like Cattys and Blsseys on my bench. Catty ex and Catty pk were vital in this matchup for my energy attachments. I outsped him after awhile and won by Warp Pointing up an Eggy jr and hitting it for like 100 or so.
3-2
I knew I wasn't top cut, though I was proud of my wins against some tough opponents. And I was happy for my rating even though I'm not like Top 4 or anything. It was great and gave me a better perspective of Blissey. I thought it was hillarious that like 6 people played it today in Masters, haha.
Props:
