about anything. Please read at own risk.

D.P. -- What is your first and last name?

Justin -- Justin Hillis

D.P. -- How old are you?

Justin -- 20, turning 21 next week,lol

D.P. -- What city and state do you live in?

Justin -- Sterlington, LA

D.P. -- How long have you been dueling?

Justin -- since...i think the beginning of summer 2002.

D.P. -- What is the current deck type you run?

Justin -- Gagagigo, a purely original deck, since most Gagagigo decks i've seen are more like...story decks I guess you could say, since they use all the cards with him in 'em.

D.P. -- What is your favorite card and booster and why?

Justin -- Heh, it's a tie for favorite cards...I dunno if i can do that though, so I'll just pick Mokey Mokey. As for favorite booster, I'd have to say...Ancient Sancutuary. As for why on both...Mokey Mokey's just really cool to me, and it's become one of my favorite cards. Ancient Sancutuary actually had some good cards, but people didn't care because IOC was still going strong at this point. I mean, look at it.Skull servant got some support, as did all lvl 1-2 normal monsters,Blue Eyes, and DM got some support. In addition to that, the Agents were released, and they're still pretty cool to me.

D.P. -- What do you believe is the biggest problem in the metagame today?

Justin -- Lack of originality, and no one wants to play for fun anymore.

D.P. -- What do you believe can/should be done to fix said problem?

Justin -- Not sure, as alot of tournament players are stubborn.

D.P. -- Do you believe the new ban list will help or hurt the game and why.

Justin -- I'm going by the japanese ban-list for this answer,but It's hard to say really...first off, you have everyone's ban, the BLS being banned...which i support all of the ban-list. People wonder why Graceful got banned? go look at the Dark Realm monsters from EEN. there's the answer. I'm happy sinister got banned, lol...tired of seeing everyone say use sinister if you use a card that requires a discard.

One thing that particularly annoyed me was the unbanning of Dark hole? what the crap? I don't want that back,lol! I'm perfectly happy with my vortex, which I prefer to dark hole, as it's alot more challenging to use.

I really have no other comments about the ban-list, except I hope we don't get two different ones since that'll divide the two games, OCG, and TCG.
