I look at this with 3 things in mind: With the changes to Modified each September, they can push the rotated sets out of the code redemption and into direct pack redemption with minimal impact on players building competetive decks. This is beta, I wouldn't be surprised if it was inteded from...

Hawaii states: Small, but enthusiastic Juniors: 0 megasadface Seniors: 3 Masters: 21 Total: 24 While attendance is down from last year and quite low overall, there are several bits of good news which I am more than willing to share if I ever get around to making a tournament report.

You know, after thinking about it for a while. Here's what I have to say. After the initial word that the trophies were going away, I was a bit disappointed, however, I feel that this was probably something that was needed to be done, and may be a turn for the better. Consider the following...

Living in Hawaii, I can totally understand people's concerns over the impact another worlds in Hawaii can have on their wallets. However, and I've stated this before, there are a few things that people should consider: 1) Worlds in general is meant to be an exclusive event. To my...

I think people are looking at this the wrong way. There really isn't anyone to blame. In fact, the only thing at fault would be the nature of card games, especially ones translated from an original language. Yes, this ruling was likely known for quite a while, but there are a lot of...

lol looking forward to it!

As found in the URL linked below, when you come to Hawaii, you should expect a difference in attitude, be it minor or significant. I did some thinking, and what some may or may not expect is what some call the "Aloha Spirit" or "Spirit of Aloha". I did some searching around, and ironically (or...

http://www.hiltonwaikoloavillage.com/location_and_travel/transportation.cfm I'd suggest checking out the above link. There's a shuttle that gets cheaper per passenger. 1 pax $50.12 $51.62 2 pax $52.22 $53.78 3 pax $54.30 $55.93 4 pax $56.40 $58.08 5 pax $58.48 $60.23 6 pax $60.57...

I'd like to point out a few things before the "worst event ever" comments and "sealed not draft" things continue. Everyone at the event had something to learn. Whether it was player(s) or staff, there were many lessons taught and a lot clarified and to be clarified. First the "Draft" Yes, it...

Just off the list posted last night from preregistration, looks like there is currently a total of 1251 players in US nats! 198 Juniors 284 Seniors 385 Masters (1) 384 Masters (2)

First off, if this thread is deemed inappropriate or unnecessary, feel free to close/delete it. Of those going to the World Championships, are there any people planning on visiting Hilo or Honolulu Hawaii before/after worlds? The reason I ask is I am considering running special events at...

What I think many hobby stores try to do is make the most money per pack, which isn't a bad idea. However, if a store sells packs cheaper, they're likely to sell more product and get more traffic. Lower margin, but higher sales could mean bigger profits especially if players/customers spend...

Actually, its more like $6 +tax :( $7 in some places. Only a few do $5 , but they still add tax.

Depending on how things turn out, I may be able to have my contacts on The Big Island assist the Pokemon community in obtaining some items from Costco and other areas. Being a local (though on a different island) has its advantages ;)

Actually had 33. 25 Masters (one who registered ahead of time who didn't show up, and called well into round 1 :nonono:) 6 Seniors 2 Juniors

Granted, I'm from Hawaii, and am pleased that I will be able to attend again, but I assure you I am not being biased. Regardless of where Worlds is, it is the event for the top players in the game. Those that make it to the top get their trips paid for and have no problem. Those that pay...

While I think it does suck getting donked, 1st turned, etc. I think its all part of the natural evolution of the game (no pun intended). Look back to the days of Professor Oak, Item Finder, Computer Search, Bill, and the wonderous HAYMAKER. The G/SP deck(s) reminds me a lot of the haymaker...

Funny you should ask, I'll be honest, Serebii did ask, but I didn't post here because he asked, I was curious of the authenticity of the scan, and decided to make a return into the Pokemon TCG scene at the same time. Heck, I miss running leauge and such ever since the store I ran it in (and...

I've been out of the game for months due to illness, job, school, etcetc issues, and I'm planning on getting back in the game and starting up a new league. First step is updating myself on everything since around September '04 lol Anyway, I'm curious to the title of the upcoming movie. I...
