On another note, I don't like how the Game Core con event counted towards player of the year standings.  With such short notice some people who are in contention couldn't make it, and if i were competing for something like that then I'd want to play in every event possible.

I had a great time hosting this event.  The tournament was exciting, and we had a very friendly group of players.  I am looking forward to hosting more or these events.
My special thanks goes to Brian for helping me to organize this event, and to Josh for helping out with judge questions.

I wanted to also tell Dan that someone did turn in a deck that was left downstairs at the end of the night.  I just put it on my desk without looking at it, but I believe it was a Dragon Shield box.  Sorry that I can't remember who turned this deck in, but this was another example of the kindness that was displayed during this event.  Give me a call on Tuesday after 2pm at the store to verify if it is your deck.  412-828-1701
