Hey everyone. I'm going to make my first post on this board in like 4 years to let you know that I have put my winning worlds deck up for sale on ebay.
I was fortunate enough to win another scholarship & valuable cards in prizes, so I figured I could afford to donate my deck. My friends & I discussed some charities we could donate the money to, but ultimately we decided rather than donate the money to a charity, I'd try to give the money back to the Pokemon community. One of the cool things about the Pokemon TCG is its a smaller, more intimate group than other games that stretch worldwide; everybody seems to know everybody.
I always get a kick out of watching how excited younger kids get when I sit down with them and teach them how to play, or give them some advice, so I decided I would use the money to take a trip out to whatever one Pokemon League or group of Pokemon players convinces me they want me there. I don't care where it's at, if you're convincing, I'll fly out to wherever your group of players meets sometime this Fall and play Pokemon & teach strategies to all the younger players for a day.
Here's the link to the auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/POKEMON-TCG-WOR...oryZ2608QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
And if anyone is interested in having me visit their league & play Pokemon for a day with your group, you can send me a PM. I haven't received any messages yet, so feel free. My closest friends & I will go through the messages and pick the one town we think is most deserving.
Thanks to everyone who congratulated me on my Worlds win!
