ok i was in a hurry the last time i wrote this report, but there are some things that i must add. firstly during the drive to phoenix from tucson, i decided that i hate WYS, and i dont want to play it. its a winning deck. it is a good deck. BUT it is just too much cheese for me to play it, and be proud of myself. So i opt for my There Is Good I Obi deck. justin beal says that his LS deck sux, and he wants to use mine. i think this is ok since i wont be using it. so anyways AFTER the tournament i find out that beal went undefeated in his LS portion of the tournament. his only loss was to hayes with his DS AoBS deck. this makes me feel like crap because i got second to last in the tournament. of course both time i played hayes i should have beaten him. this bring me to another part that i left out. when i was playing my MotR deck(maul on the rocks) i had seven force, and time was called to end the game on my turn. i was not going to draw, so that he couldnt just do some damage to me, and then i would loose totally. hayes would then only win on time. i thought this was good. hayes was surprised when i didnt draw out, and he said "you know im going to loose a lot of points if you dont draw out" being hayes’ friend i said "oh yeah, how many?" "32" and after this i considered how close he was to brian hunter, and i considered my own ranking. he was very close to being number one in the world, and i didnt want to rob him of it. if we wernt in tournament play he would eventually have won the game, but it was called on time. i decided i wouldnt be a @#$% to a good friend, so i drew up. of course i had about 3 people say some @#$% like "that is BS because he should loose points" which just means everyone else was just jealous cuz i didnt bend over and rape a good friend of mine. overall, i think i took the right choice. plus i think hayes’ might have liked the rapage because he grabed my leg in the car ride on the way home. (dont deny it hayes, you flamer) overall i had a fun time, and the best part about the experiance was the trip, and not the star wars. for prize support i won a enchanced CC pack with the IG88 in it. highs: playing my obi deck, and beating the hell outta hayes and some guy who was playing on hoth. lows: having been cheated and lost the last game which i shouldnt have. learning that i got second to last. **ALMOST** beating hayes twice, but failing both times to pull it off.
