That was for my own amusement. Otherwise it was a relatively normal and uneventful MTG tournament.  A delicious  turnout of 24 made it expedient to play 5 rounds.  Adam Westwood, Game Den employee and MTG player extraordinaire of late (he suffered many ignominious defeats a while ago) defeated Eric Twarog in round 5 to win the tournament as the only undefeated player.  Unlike tournaments of  months past, only one player used a "Jund" deck.
