Since so many people asked...
Okay, so three people asked. ^^; Anyway, here's how last night's tourney went down:

I took my Demonic Disruption deck with me, and signed in. In pre-game trading, I got Last turn and Invader of Darkness (A Secret and Ultra rare) for only five commons. ^__^ Nice, no?

Anyway, I was knocked out in the first round, but not easily. The guy played beatdown, and plowed through my monsters. However, that's what I wanted him to do. Most of my monsters (Check that: all of them) have effects that go off when they're destroyed, so the whole thing was basically a struggle for field-control.

He'd summon and attack, and my Newdoria's and Night Assailants would take his monsters with them.

Unfortunatly, for whatever reason, I didn't draw any of my offensive cards. I got Darkl Necrofear out once during the entire duel, and never got the Summoned Skull or Great Maju Garzett to the field.

I did manage to draw Painful Choice once, and he gave me Kuriboh. (They always give Kuriboh!) Sadly, he kept breaking through my defenses faster than I could gather my offense. This has always been a problem with my Fiend deck.

Anyway, after the Duel, I traded for a Creature Swap. ^__^ This Saturday is the last Toys R Us tournament of the season, and with my new deck adjustments, I expect to go to the finals. ^^;

After this Saturday, I'll take apart my Demon deck, simply because I'm ready to try something new. I want to try a Beast-themed beatdown. (Beastdown.)

Oh, another interesting thing: my sister beat this high-level player with her Pyro-burner once. Last night, same guy was playing a Burner all of a sudden. I counted five cards in his deck (that I saw) also used by my sister. ^__^

Thought of the moment: Rayne's comic is updated! Go read!

Quote of the moment: "Watch me ram that cop car."

Song of the moment:

"Black Balloon", the Goo Goo Dolls

Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Cuz you were the same as me
But on your knees

A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one?
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon that was your womb

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?

You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallow the light from the sun inside your room, yeah

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Always someone there

And there's no time left for losin'
When you stand they fall, yeah

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
All because I'm
Comin' down the years turn over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on and I'll bring you home and
All because I'm
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me
