My son and I will be coming up from Buffalo, NY. We attend all our POP events in Toronto.Mississauga. Nothing else within driving distance.
thats awesome. I'm gonna be there before 9...make some final testing, then register. Since the tourney starts approximately at 11AM, and registration is at 9AM. I have at least an hour to meet all of you! See you there!
PS. If you have time before the tourney, lets have some battles!

Wow, it was so great to see so many people there. We had 104 participants - I'm not 100% sure, but I think this was the breakdown: 18 in 10-, 32 in 11-14, and 54 in the 15+. I know it's somewhere around that area anyway. I wasn't so concerned about the numbers at the time, just that the tournament ran fairly smoothly by the rules, and I hope everyone had a fun time with that. I have to admit, it was some of the funnest and busiest tournaments I've had a chance to be involved in. I watched the whole 15+ finals match myself, and although it was late in my opinion, both participants were at the top of their game - and kept me involved as well. I was proud to be there, and felt honored to be able to in some small way be a part of their match, by doing the odd shuffle or cut for them. Congratulations to Something else AKA Sean F. for the win in an exciting matchup.
In the whole day the only thing I had a real problem with, that I took offense with was when one of the participants in the top 8 cut for 11-14, attempted to argue with me about his use of Wally's training on either a Harriyama ex or some other such highest stage evolution ex, just so he could search his deck to see what's there, and what was in his prizes. I slapped him a warning for stalling.
One problem resulted due to a glitch in the program, that one of the participants were seeded higher then what their rankings after swiss indicated, which meant that instead of a 4th place finish which she rightfully deserved, the program gave her the 3rd place finish. I wasn't involved with that conversation, and don't know too many of the details regarding what happened there, but the tournament organizer took care of that, and got the trophy to the rightful owner, and gave some extra product to compensate for the mistake the computer made. Let's hope this problem doesn't happen often.
Other than those 2 incidents, I think the tournament went really well, and I'd like to congratulate all the winners, the top 4 finishers and those ones that got their trip handed down to them, and thank everyone for coming. I'd also like to thank Pokemon Organized Play for the chance to run this tournament, and their sponsorship for the prizes given away. I'd also like to thank Pete DeShaw for coming up here, and losing some sleep to help us out. Very much appreciated Pete. Let's do this again next year! Maybe I'll have to play next time, you never know! Thanks again everybody.

My son and I had a great time even though we didn't make the finals. He was 2-3 with a Team Aqua deck in 11-14 and I was 3-3 in 15+ with a Ludicargo/Lantern deck. Props to Skyfox and the POP guys. It was run very smoothly, nothing like Origins last year.
