I got to the tournament at about 3:40 PM.  I signed up and got my magic ruler.  Got nothing 
special, just a UFO Turtle.  Now for the actual tourney.

1st Match-Beatdown vs. Devon (beatdown I think)

1st round-I really don’t remember much, but I know I had a la jinn and harpies brother 
on the field and then I cleared his field with raigeki and then I attacked.  He tried to 
play a 7 Colored Fish, but I trap holed it and then kept attacking for win.

2nd round-He beat me in this round.  He had monsters on the field and I started with 
pure magic and traps.  He just kept attacking and he won.

3rd round-I got kind of nervous, but I knew my deck wouldn’t let me down.  I started 
with a La jinn and a waboku.  He play a monster in defense and then ended his turn.  I 
drew change of heart and then played it and sacrificed his monster for my summoned skull.  
I attacked for 4300. He play dark hole and got rid of my monsters.  He played 7 colored 
fish and then attacked but I activated waboku.  I activate my snatch steal and then 
attack with fish and goblin attack force, winning me the duel.

2nd Match-Beatdown vs. forgot name (sorry!)
I don’t remember much but I think he won the second game, and then I beat him in the 
third with Jinzo.

After my match, I was very surprised that the Champion of the store for like 15 weeks
 straight lost.  And he is the ranked #1 in the East Coast on upperdeck’s yugioh site.

3rd Match-Beatdown vs. kid who beat the champion.
I really don’t know how this kid beat the champion. I know part of it was because of 
Gravity Bind, but he never used it against me.

1st Match- I started with a Goblin Attack Force, and activated Swords.  He had nothing
 on the field for the whole duel and I just kept attacking with my monsters for the win.

2nd Match-He won, when he used dark hole and got rid of my monsters and then kept 
attacking with his.

3rd Match-I started with a Magician of Faith, GAF, La Jinn, Waboku, Trap Hole. I play
GAF in atk mode and then set trap hole and Waboku.  He set down a monsters.  I 
activated Change of Heart on his meb.  I attacked directly with GAF, then flipped 
over his meb and destroyed it.  He play 7 colored fish next turn, and I use trap 
hole.  I draw Jinzo and then sacrifice it and keep attacking for the win.

Semifinals-Beatdown vs. Collins(beatdown)
No, not him again!!!! I got eliminated by him, the previous week in the semis.

1st match-I win (not sure about the LP) by attacking his LP with my monsters.

2nd match-He wins by doing the same thing I did during the 1st match.

3rd Match-This was pretty close!! He had no monsters on the field and i was about
to attack with my Summoned Skull and 7 Colored Fish, when he activated Mirror Force,
a card I need so badly. He ends up beating me with his Summoned Skull and another monster.  

Match for 3rd Place-Beatdown vs. guy with BEWD deck.

1st match- He wins by doing the flute and lord of d. combo.
2nd and 3rd match-I end up winning, by attacking his life points directly.

Well, those are the results.  I think I’m kind of glad because in the last two 
tourney packs I got a Call of the Grave. I was the only one to get a foil in his 
tourney pack.  Well, that’s all, folks.
