    Oh hai. K so... going to Nats...

    Hey all, I'm reviving myself after a six year hiatus to play at Nationals! I have one major problem... the only legal cards I currently own are DOUBLE COLORLESS ENERGY and COPYCAT. I'm also terribly bad at Pokemon, i.e. I probably forgot how to play. Nevertheless, I will be at Nationals...

    My unofficial goodbye to Pokemon...

    Okay, I'm really sorry to start one of these threads. However, I have too many friends in this game to simply want to vanish. That being said, I'm vanishing now. This game has meant so much to me in the past few years. I've grown up with it... it's been there as I've gone through some very...

    Poker losses

    I know a lot of you are good poker players, and you've made good incomes from it. What I'm wondering is... how do you guys deal with the swings? I've been way up and way down and finally, mostly out of frustration, bad beats, and tilt, I went bust on one of my accounts. So anyone got any horror...

    Dark Slowking

    Alright, I've been playing with this deck ever since the Gym Challenge series ended, and I really like it. I realize it might not be tournament-winning... yet. However, with the release of Unseen Forces, I think there may be enough new cards to help it out that it may have finally been pushed...

    No Limit Texas Hold 'Em

    I learned how to play Texas Hold 'em way back in 2001 at the WCSTS, no doubt. However, I started playing on a regular basis this spring. Who out there plays, and do you play with people in real life? Also, where does everyone play online? Anyone here SERIOUSLY considering joining the WPT...

    SPOILERS for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

    I know there's a topic on HP already... however this is a spoiler topic... so people can still talk about HP in the other thread without worrying about spoilers. Ok. I'm going to go try to finish now... I'll be back with spoilers soon!

    A suggestion to Nintendo for next year...

    First of all, I want to say that this was an excellent gym challenge season. I had a great time at all 4 events and I really appreciate what Nintendo has done for the game. I just have one suggestion for next year: I don't think it's fair to players to allow people with trips to play in Gym...

    Darth VADERZ!!!

    Ok yeah. I thought long and hard about whether I would post this or not. I've decided to post it. Frankly, if people are going to counter my deck, go ahead. I'm confident enough in my playing ability and my deck that I don't need to "surprise" people. I'm pretty sure I can win games anyway...

    My Sedalia (And Kansas City) GC Report

    Hello all. First off, I want to say that BOTH of these Gym Challenges were excellent. Vince and Ray ran the Sedalia GC very well, and the same goes for the KC GC. They were very comfortable atmospheres... I can't even remember one problem arising. At first, I was only going to go to...

    Rare Candy First Turn...

    Ok, I just want to get a final ruling on this because I've heard it different ways. If I win the flip, and I choose to go second... can I rare candy evolve on my "first" turn? I know I can't rare candy if I go first... but does it work going second? Thanks, ~ RaNd0m

    My Newspaper Column in the Rock Island Argus

    I've been writing for the Rock Island Argus/Moline Dispatch for about 6 months now... and I write a monthly column. This month, I chose to write about the game we all know and love. It was printed today. Just a note... I played with the margins a little bit. Newspapers like to create paragraphs...

    Rock Lock (Post-Emerald version)

    I trust my playing abilities enough to show what I'm playing to people. It really doesn't bother me. I know a lot of people like to keep decks secret... but I guess I just don't see the point. Nobody's going to believe this deck can work anyway... so there we go! :) Alright, so I played Rock...

    Complete Dominance

    SUPPORTER Flip a coin. If Heads, you win the game. If tails, your opponent loses the game. You can only play this card if you have a full bench, 6 prizes remaining, a sad look on your face, and you believe in the spirit of the game.

    Melee in Detroit...

    What are your thoughts on the melee that occured at Detroit last night? For more information, check out ESPN.com 's NBA section. I saw this live... and I don't know, I thought it was disgraceful... BUT... I don't blame the Pacers' players. I really think that the fans were the ones that...

    If winning wasn't an issue, who would you vote for...

    If winning wasn't an issue, who would you vote for, and why? This is close to a poll, but it's not! Honest! In other words, I'm saying 3rd party candidates are included. I'm hung up between Bush and Badnarik. I disagree with Bush on some issues, but I feel he's stronger on defense than...

    The Bush Bounce...

    FINALLY, this election has moved from being knotted up to Bush with a solid lead. According to both a TIME magazine poll and a Newsweek poll, Bush is up 52-41. Thoughts? What do you think caused the lead? And which speech? I was thinking that Rudy Giulani's speech was the best out of all of...

    The US loses... to PUERTO RICO?

    This is obviously an Olympic Basketball discussion... Now we know the selection committee did a terrible job selecting players this year... (Jefferson? Marion? They do the same thing!) But honestly, how terrible could this be? We lost to Puerto... Rico... We don't have a pure shooter...
