Reputation? I've never once been pulled aside for marked sleeves ever in a tournament and that remark really comes off as a little snide. Try what? That statement even implies that the issue was deliberate on my end. I have only played in almost every region in the country this year with no issues until this tournament. In fact, through each event in 5 different states spread through the country I even used the same sleeves that were in question which were a gift from a special person. I'm sure because i have banned before for an isolated incident that was not in a tournament environment it's easy to present a case that I am capable of trying to play unethically. This is false and anybody that has spent any time getting to know me knows that isn't my prerogative as well. Fact of the matter is, this tournament was not Nationals and my deck did pass deck check initially by one of your staff. In the future I hope you can pick staff that can administer the deck approval pre tournament more effectively and prevent an incident like this from happening again.
Fact of the matter is the only "reputation" I have is being extremely good looking and winning lots of tournaments in this game. That is what I'm about and I'm not going to let anybody try to say something that takes away from that. This is the last time I'm going to address this since I have another tournament to prepare for. Good day.
that's shady. Martin has been all class since that questionable incident. he has played amazingly all season and i wasn't there, but if it wasn't even a top-cut game and pointed out with no warnings or anyone being approached beforehand then it seems to be an improper ruling as well as a biased one.
