Jace:
I had an extremely trying Friday Night Magic experience because in round 4 (out of 4) I was paired up against the 7 year old who clearly did not want to lose another couple games of MtG. I tried to be nice but my deck is just too good against slow to mid-range without removal and by turn 5 both games I'd won. It took almost the full 40 minutes to play two games. Now I don't mind playing against kids if they can focus and have an idea of what's going on (Most of the time, I will end up winning but I try to be helpful during and after the game), but this was rough. I reported the 2-0 victory to the tournament organizer (my housemate). Later the kid came up and said that he decided to quit so it was 1-1. It is unfortunate that the parents don't have anyone to watch him (they also come and play) because he isn't very good at losing and doesn't have the higher level of reasoning to win games consistently yet.

I made some changes to my deck and it is getting downright ridiculous with how well it runs. Hopefully I will do better with it in 2 weeks when I go again. I also started cataloging my collection of cards in standard. I made it through lands, artifacts, and multi-colored cards, still have to do the 5 colors, which is probably around 1500-1800 cards to sort through.

Pilchard123:
Wait, he retired and in doing so he gained a game?

LTK:
I think Jace is saying he lied.

Jace:
Yeah, I won both games. After I had won he said "so I won one and you won one." I corrected him that I had won both games. Then I went and reported our games. Later he went to report the games and tried to lie about the results.
Of course, he is 7 years old and probably lost all 8 games that night.
