Great job Mark. I'm one of the North East kids, you did great! I saw your game with the Wager problem, but you ended up with an amazing record. Good luck at Worlds
 
Serebii1997J- Thanks, I hope TGW is banned for 2008-2009 season, unless you have claydol its hard to make a comeback from losing wager.

Apache-Do I know you?
 
Great job Mark! You played well and handled the Wager situation and rd 8 very well.

See ya at Worlds!
