My first nationals was a few years ago in KC missouri there were like 200 some people there, or so it seemed.

I've been to 4. MN 2005 (BIGGEST ONE YET!!!) NY 2006, MO 2007 and OH! 2008. CA was a little bit of a stretch.
in MN, it was my second year of attending tournaments and I did fairly well, I went over 500, so I was happy. NY I wish I would have done better, but I don't think I did too bad. MO I did good in T2 Multi (5th place, but last round I was at a table with Tyler, Justin and Eric, so I was happy), OH! I did horrible. I had an awesome Booster deck, but it failed like Booster Draft can do, my T1 somehow got twisted draws and bad luck. I had to play DaClock first round and I didn't draw one FBTN hero. that also happened in the second game, and the third game I got an easy pairing being so low. third I played Rob's youngest daughter (I think...)with a new deck I was trying out. it failed. fourth I got another VERY easy pairing and I walked through, fifth I did that again, sixth I had an awesome time with Isildur forcing a 4-4 tie even though I could have won...  seventh I had another easy one. eighth I played a site deck with my site deck... but mine was a Zebby deck, so... ninth I don't remember, but I won, and last I played Chris McCravy, who I lost to 3 out of 3 times we met that week (once was on RTS though, but we also played in Booster?)

Our whole table got a tie at that nats lol Good times.

haha Lord Stryfe and his friend... too bad he's quitting redemption... but YOU wouldn't listen to me and play SoG and NJ at the same time so we could tie 6-6 like they did.

2008 Nats= EPIC!
