Hello, this is Roger the Skunk.  I won second place yet again.  I just can't seem to win first place (due in large part to  my powered-up Jinzo #7).  This is becoming quite the frustrating situation.  Nonetheless, I got a $15 store credit.  For those of you have been reading my tournament reports, you may have noticed I put three Robbin' Goblin in my main deck.  That proved to be very useful against all of my opponents:  it made the inexperienced opponents look worse, and frustrated the good opponent I faced.  Yes, the only challenging match I had was in the finals, which I lost. :(   I also took out Big Eye, Cyber Jar, and Ultimate Offering out of my main deck.  They just haven't really been helpful at all.  Instead, I put in a couple of Jinzo #7 and three Robbin' Goblin.  I must say that it is fun to power-up a Jinzo #7 and attack your opponent directly. :)  On to the report itself.
 
 
 
Round 1
 
Duel 1
Roger the Skunk  8000-6000
Jon  8000-7100-6800-5000-3350-3300-950-0
 
Not much to say here.  I know I promised to take better notes for all of you who read my reports.  I promise I will try next time.
 
 
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk  8000-7700
Jon  8000-9000-7200-5400-2900-1400-0
 
Just look at the score.
 
 
 
Round 2
 
Duel 1
Roger the Skunk  8000-7200-6200-5600
Darian  8000-6350-3900-2550-100-2100-0
 
I am not sure how Darian went from 100 to 2100 life points (I was keeping score), but it didn't matter.  This kid kept trying to play tribute monsters without tributing;  I even let him slide by on this once.
 
 
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk  8000-7200
Darian  8000-6200-2600-0
 
At least this time Darian didn't keep playing tribute monsters without tributing.

Duel 1
Roger the Skunk  8000-7850
Mark  8000-6250-4650-2150-350-0
 
Pretty is duel.  I love using Jinzo #7!!!!!
 
 
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk  8000-6400
Mark  8000-6100-5600-5400-3600-1100-0
 
Not much to say here.
 
 
Final Round
 
Duel 1
Roger the Skunk  8000-6900-5050-4600-2800-0

Fritz won.
 
 
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk 8000-5000-6000-4000-2000-0
Fritz  8000-6100
 
I was doing good initially.  I had Jinzo #7 out and powered-up to 2900 Attack. I hit him good until he used Snatch Steal on my Jinzo#7.  And for the next four draws I couldn't draw anything to get rid of my Jinzo#7  he took control of.  Arrrrggghhhh!!!!
 
 
This was a good tournament in all.  I bought some Pharaoh's Servant and Magic Ruler boosters, and I got Messenger of Peace, and Nobleman of Crossout. :0  Also, for those of you that live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Lone Star Comics will be holding a large, official Upper Deck, 64-person tournament on November, 16.  I, will give you more details if you e-mail me;  otherwise wait for my next tournament report or Yu-Gi-Oh tip.

Cheers and Jeers:
 
Cheers:
For the dude trading me his Witch's Apprentice for my Gift of the Mystical Elf.
For the two Super Rares I got.
 
Jeers:
To Darian not knowing about the tributing rules.
