Sorry about the delay.
I would like to congratulate Zelc as the winner of 3CB Tournament #43.
Different format, although a very interesting idea to take the prize. Glad it wasn't one of the 3 identical Eater of Days decks!
There were no winners of the mise-prize, which I'm very glad about - mise-prize efforts have annoyed me since I won it years back. 
*SPECIAL FORMAT*
The rules for this competition were: OD/ON/MR Blocks + appropriate base sets
Banned Cards:
Any card that is not from OD/ON/MR Blocks or 7th/8th Edition (Except the MM Storage Lands and City of Traitors).

How to read the table:
Match the deck# on the left with the deck # on top. Append a 1 where appropriate. The #s on the right of that deck correspond to how many points that deck received versus the deck on top. (Once again append a 1 where appropriate. The 1's are missing to make the table clearer)

Not a great showing from our esteemed organiser, but at least the format was slightly more open thanks to the presence of the extra lands; as you can see, every single person played at least one of them.
Again, sorry for the delay. One idea I have is to try a Lotus tournament as the next "special" one - is there any interest in this, or do we stick with Lotus formats for beating MTGNews.com's ass next time around?
