It was a pretty good tournament, and a fun tourney to judge! Do you guys know how HARD it is too just stand by while everyone else is ripping into packs of brand spanking new cards!!!! And such nice looking cards! It took me all a while to realize that a lot of the shiney cards were the reverse holos. Those are really very nice looking.


There were 40 people playing, and you all behaved very well -- that's a big plus with you Cupertino people. No hassles, just people there to play Pokemon and have fun! And some very creative ideas in deck building -- heck, you have to be creative with a constructed game. I know that one of the second place 15+ players only had one trainer in her six packs of cards (it was, however, a Stevens Advice :) ).

My appreciation goes to Susan and Chris, who worked so hard to make the tournament happen! All I did was make announcements and ajudicate questions. Big round of applause for them!

Hope ya'll can make it to the Modesto pre-release on the 13th!
 
It was mostly susan who worked hard, i just setup and cleaned up (a lil since about like 6-8 ppl helped)

I won't be able to come to Modesto sorry =(, maybe next time though, since it will be right before school in august, i could use more packs for blasty ex, since i think im only gonna have enough for 1 box sadly =/.
