Worlds 2009 In Review

[bullados]

The problem with a chess clock.....

Player 1: "Cosmic Power"

Player 2: "Wait a minute..." checks hand, checks play, checks each discard "...Power Spray"

Whose time gets used during that little exchange?

Another thing that really bugged me about Worlds, the Shop was terrible really. I was hoping to pick up some nice dolls as presents for my friends at home but they had nothing remotly interesting there :/

Agreed...but at least they had some stuff.

Not enough though. Especially plushes.

Did they just not bring many, or did they sell dozens to the first few people who got there (who then probably put them on eBay)?

Maybe they should limit them to 1 or 2 per customer?

DarthPika, no where has Darkelf said that multiple stalling penalties have been applied to you. No one is asserting that.

Not to derail the thread but, she did say that time extensions have been given, which isn't true.

Just because I have never documented a penalty against him for stalling does not mean that he was not verbally warned, or given time extentions by myself and other judges on NUMEROUS occasions.
