Frankie Durso made it 4th! That's another victory for the NYC Crew! Even though he got the invite, still, awesome!

Wish I was there, but I wasn't able to go.

good job to the winners.

Me andmy brother off another mother (soles) went to this "big dance" and both went 5-3 (damnit, lost two games on a coin flip and one on rock being prized ;______;). I'm talking live via high (crap) speed internet. This thing is HORRIBLE =/

I used Ludi, and Solesy used Matrix (combined effort decklists, both). We had LOADS of fun (even though I was sick most of the time and vomited my AWFUL hamburger in front of about a dozen people :()

Props!!!

-To all my shizzles that I met (like Moss...OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG YOU PWN DUDE!!!!1111! As well as the "Tazmanian Iranian)
-To my opponents (actually, I had a room party with 3/8 of them ;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x;x)

Slops:

-LITERALLY slops. I "slopped" all over the floor
-Pikachu, for being a sexy woman

I'll be writing a full-fledged report soon. Later guys! =)

Yeah, Frankie got the most insane luck on me in Top 8. I had him beat, then he topdecked his only way out of the situation (Super Scoop Up), and proceeded to hit his 3rd consecutive Super Scoop Up. I was going crazy. =(

Regardless, I had a good time and it was a well run event this year. See you guys at Worlds.

Nope Worlds will not have that many 15+ playing in it, they are going to cap the number of players in each age group just like they did last year.

He got insane luck against me in top 32 also. He flipped 3-4 Reversal and Super Scoop Up heads in games 1 and 3, which were the ones that he beat me.
 
Frankie never ceases to amaze me in tournaments. His skill and luck helps him win or rank high in almost every tourney he enters. Congratulations Frankie. If you knew who he was, you would know that he deserves every win he gets. He's a good person.
P.S. Sorry about the title mix-up Spookees. Wasn't thinking while I was typing. I'll be more careful next time.
