Pre-Tournament Notes
Labyrinth of Nightmare was open for sale today and it was harvest time. 
People were buying packs left and right. I only bought two and my cards were 
only rares. The "Spirit Message I" and "Return Of The Doomed" were the two. 
My friend got a Kycoo and I got pissed at him for it. I bought my Pepsi and 
headed up to the tourney room. Now for the tournament:

Round 1:

Terror Vs. Carlos (Labyrinth of Nightmare Beatdown)
I was nervous as hell going into this match. He bought TWO boxes of 
Labyrinth and had almost every card he could possibly need, like Gemini 
Elves, Kycoo the Ghost Destroyers, United We Stand, and even Mage Power. The 
duel started and I held my breath.
First Duel: Me 0 LP Carlos 1400 LP
I had a decent hand, but I got trampled early and so did he, but his Gemini 
Elves overcame me.
Second Duel: Me 1100 LP Carlos 0 LP
Similar to the last round except I kept killing his monsters and getting 
them back. I beat him down faster than he could to me.
Third Duel: Me 100 LP Carlos 0 LP
This was too close to call unless you saw it. He hit me in the beginning for 
7900. I fought back with Raigeki and reborn to get my skull out. He had put 
all his heart into those few moves that he had almost nothing left except 
for a single face down card. I didn't attack for the final damage until I 
could destroy it with MST. It was mirror force! I win! YES!

Round 2:

Terror Vs. Casey (Bad Beatdown)
This kid did not look ready at all. My morale was high from my last battle, 
so I was pepped up. I know your rule about being descriptive Pojo, but there 
really isn't that much to say. I owned him.
First Duel: Me 6100 LP Casey 0 LP
He tried to put defenses but SS and BD wrecked him fast.
Second Duel: Me 8000 Casey 0LP
See above duel.

Round 3:

Bye! Oh Yeah!
I had nothing to do for a full our so I got another drink and watched my 
competition.

Round 4:

Terror Vs. Jamie (Assorted Deck)
Jamie and me are friends and we like dueling each other because we are about 
the same level of challenge and the duels are always tight until the end.
First Duel: Me 0 LP Jamie 500 LP
There is not a better word for comeback in this situation. I beat him down 
to 3700 with his Jinzo and then he came out of nowhere and started winning 
until he finished me off.
Second Duel: Me 0 LP Jamie 5600 LP
There are several things I could have and should have done differently. I 
shadow of eyes-ed his cyber jar and then he played mask of brutality (raises 
a monsters attack by 1000) and beat me down with it.

Well, I thought I would do better, but I won't know until next week.
