Now for the Tournament:
First Round: Me Vs. Donald
This was a pretty fun match.
I started off with a pretty decent hand, can't remember all of it but it 
included yata garasu, monster reborn, graceful charity and jinzo. He went 
first, and played three cards face down. No monsters. My turn. He 
activated drop off. There goes my gaf.
I play graceful charity, getting rid of jinzo and a don zaloog. I special 
summon jinzo and summoning my yata. that's pretty much game, he doesn't 
get my jinzo off the field until later in the duel,when he dark holed. I 
only lost life points by prematuring my don zaloog. 
Second Duel:
I wend second again, but it took a while longer because no jinzo, few 
base monsters, and lots of wabakus and lots of la jinns and harpie's 
brother for him. I managed to get out my airknight and knock some of his 
monsters out, and finally  ring of d'ed his garnecia elephantis for the 
win.

Second Round: Me vs. Jacen...without his chainsaw
I went second, he layed two face down cards and a face down monster. My 
turn. Another dropoff...grr...it was my yata. :( Played Gaf, attacked. 
Wabaku. I set two cards. His turn. Summoned harpie's brother, flipped la 
jinn. Equipped la jinn with black pendant. I destroyed it with ring of d. 
He set another card. My turn. I drew a don zaloog. I summoned it. I 
played a raigeki. he flipped his imperial order. I attacked with gaf, he 
flipped mirror force. Great. I set another card. His turn. He summons 
another harpie's brother. Attacks. I magic cylinder one of them. My turn. 
Drew Axe of Despair. I summoned another gaf, equip it with  axe, and 
attack one of his brothers. His turn. He sets another card, and flips 
brother into defense mode. Realizes his mistake when my turn comes along 
and I get a dark hole. I special summon a gaf, sack it for jinzo, and 
attack for the win. 

Quarter Finals: Me vs. Gavin
I go first, pretty easy, I manage to tie it up quickly with repeated 
efforts of gaf, kycoo and gemini elf.
Second duel
He goes first. I'm doing pretty well for awhile, but he manages to get me 
down pretty low, with a lava golem on his side of the field. I get out a 
parshath, and attack one of his other monsters. He goes down to 1500 lp. 
Parshath has two axes on him at this point. His turn. He snatch steals my 
only monster, the parshath, summons a gemini, and attacks with all three. 

Third duel:
went along pretty much like the first one, except I got out parshath and 
jinzo, get a lava golem on his side of the field after he destroys my 
jinzo, and ring of d. it for the win.

Finals: Me vs. Don
Dun dun dun!
First round, pretty tense, it went back and forth with kycoos and bazoos
(his) and gemini's until I used fiber jar, and managed to kill him with 
me having only twelve hundred lp left. 
Second round: Pretty sad, I didn't get anything, and he managed to put my 
in a partial yata lock, but I got him down to 3200 before he took me out. Third Round: Strong beatdown in the beginning on both sides, until I got 
out my lava golem, and he took the damage. He unfortunately saved himself 
from it's effect for awhile with barrel behind the door, lowering me to 
1000 lp. My turn. He had lava golem and a facedown monster on his side of 
the field with 1200 lp. I snatched stealed my lava golem, summoned a 
sinister serpent, and attackedwith it. Penguin soldier. Crap. Both go 
back to my hand, he has none, and it's his turn. I'm hoping no monster. 
Too bad for me. Gaf. Attacks for the win.

Props:
