|
|
A further description of my day had just been written but was lost out due to a computer error. So I'm gonna give a bit of a shorter rundown.
I might right out a full report later but I don't feel like doing it again at the moment.
The swiss was 8 rounds. I was playing TeleDAD with hot tech cards like Dimensional Prison and Diamond Dude. I neglected to run cards such as Necro Gardna or Phoenix Wing Wind Blast like the rest of the pro's.
Round 1: vs Water: Table 3: Win Record 1-0
Round 2: vs Lightsworn: Table 7: Win Record 2-0
Round 3: vs TeleDAD: Table 6: Win Record 3-0
Round 4: vs Lightsworn: Table 3: Win Record 4-0
Round 5: vs TeleDAD: Table 4: Win Record 5-0
Round 6: vs Little City: Table 1: Win Record 6-0
Round 7: vs TeleDAD: Table 1: Loss Record 6-1
Round 8: vs TeleDAD: Table 3: Win Record 7-1
I placed fifth going into the top 8. It was announced that the top 4 would not play, so after one round of play to get the top 4 those players would receive the same prizes and there was no need to play further.
I drew Robert Ackerman as my opponent in the top 8. The only pro to make it to the top 8. After I got OTK'd in game 1. I came back with 2 consecutive victories due to my monarch variation siding and with ALOT of help from the pro tech of diamond dude. Which Ackerman complained relentlessly about and proved what a bad sport he is. I managed to take down the player who took SECOND in WORLDS this year to get my nationals invite.
Most importantly now I would like to thank Vince who is muh best friend and whom without I couldn't have made it this far. I'd also like to thank Jarrid, Begley, Brad, and Claudio. All of whom hung with me and waited all day to see the outcome and how far I could go. I appreciate it more than you guys now, greatest damn cheering section ever. _________________

Now you have no excuse for not taking top each week. Great job though. _________________ Face it, you're pretty much here as a meat shield.

Definitely a great job Chester. A solid deck and obviously well played. You wiped me with it at geek-o-rama. You make Team Fish proud! _________________ Team Fish, Level 1 judge blah. blah, blah!

Seems to me that the next goal for team fish is to get Vince qualified for nationals. He is the strongest duelist on the team (no offense Chester). Vince, maybe you should take a crack at a regional with the tele DAD deck. Who knows, you could do it too. As for Harvey and myself, we're old and feeble, it's up to the youth to carry us! _________________ Team Fish, Level 1 judge blah. blah, blah!

That is kinda offensive to post in a topic that Vince started to congratulate me. Everyone talked about how great Hamilton is 'cause he top 8'd. I qualify for Nat's and still get nuttin'. kthx. _________________

He congratulated you in an earlier reply.
And, although that wasn't the sharpest thing for Jim to say in a "congrats" topic (lol), he didn't mean anything by it.
Quote: | Everyone talked about how great Hamilton is 'cause he top 8'd. |
I never said Hamilton was great...I think he sucks. LOL. (kidding Ham...not that youd' ever read this...cause' the fact you don't play anymore does suck. Goon.)
Quote: | I qualify for Nat's and still get nuttin'. |
Chester is AWESOME! Best player I ever met...simply God like...a Yugioh Demi-God if you will...Super-De-Duper, and Stupendous (yeah, I quoted Barney...anybody got a problem with that??!!)...a Living Legend..lol...
Seriously though, you showed us all up. Excellent playing, and an Excellent job. The rest of us could only wish...
So, uh, you are making the trip to Nationals, yes? And, if so, rip it up there like you did here man!!
JIM -

I didn't want some ridiculous 'high praise' if that's what I implied. I just don't appreciate how it was implied that it was all the deck, and that someone else(Vince) in this case could definetly do it if I was able too. I'm sorry if I came off arrogant like I should be worshipped or something. And I also did miss the first post from Jim, for some reason I think when I skimmed over it I thought it was Begley. I just didn't think it was cool with how hard I worked for things to be said the way they were. I'm not saying I'm better than Vince but, I've top 4'd and qualified for Nat's and my ego is way to big for my hard work to just be looked over. Anyway though, this thread is locked being as the point of it is done.
P.S. - I will be going to Nationals, Vince and Begley both have stated interest in going with me. _________________
