I realized that I have been meaning to blog about a few things, but I kept missing my chance due to lack of time. This means I have to make up for lost time. I guess I'll start with Sunday.
Sunday was the day of yet another monthly VS System PCQ. It is a good chance for me to sell my cards since it is probably the only time when there are actually plenty of people to buy them. I learnt my lesson from the last time (I sold practically nothing), so this time, the moment I arrived, I picked a good spot and laid my wares (both albums and my box of foils) out on the table. And then the customers started coming in. Most of the people who bought crap rares/foils were those who were armed with checklists to complete their play set. Thank god for them. I sold more than 1/3 of my cards and left feeling a happy man.
The rest of the guys were playing in Sealed and Draft and Chaosmag surprised us by dropping by. In Constructed, it was DC Modern Age, possibly the most boring format at the moment. It was all GLEE mirror matches and whoever was unforunate enough to face a Superman Robots deck would just lose. I didn't bother paying attention to the top 8.
In Sealed, Akira managed to get into the top 8 with an impressive 7-1 score. He lost in the quarterfinals, though, and I felt it was kinda weird. They called for 'sudden death' when Akira and his opponent, Timothy, were both at 1-1 when the one-hour limit was up. I felt that the rules for the sudden death were kinda iffy (was it even an official thing?). Akira lost that. Oh, well.
I went with Akira and Amerell to Pasta Mania for dinner. I haven't had a good western dinner in a long time. I shared a Chicken & Mushroom Pizza with Akira. It was a good way to end the weekend.
