I know the results were reported correctly but i didn't actually see them entered or anything. I would have noticed last night when we didn't get any prizes, but i had to leave and had my teammate pickup the prizes.I don't suspect i was being cheated, and i should have been more thorough just in case of this kind of thing. But what can i do/expect now? I haven't talked to the TO/owner/judge or anything yet, i'm just trying to figure out what my rights are about getting this fixed just in case they are being scheisty.
You can appeal it on the PWP website I think. As for the error, you know, they are human. And I know from experience that running a tournament with magic players having to report to you, it's quite common for them to report wrong, or have them not report at all. It gets harder when you have to run a store as well, so maybe you reported correctly but with everything going wrong they input it wrong?

I'm sure it was a mistake, i just wanna know if i can get it corrected on their end somewhow without reporting. And though i think it is a mistake, i just suspect these people will tell me not to worry about, they can't do anything, etc etc, regardless of whether or not they actually can.Knowledge is power, you know. If i know it can be fixed for sure or even how myself the better off i'll be.

They can't do anything store side, once reported that's that, you'd have to go to WoTC to get it fixed.

So everyone calls each other a "douche" on here these days and that seems to be acceptable behavior to the mods...So, then, can I call people tampons? Or what about... yeah well, nevermind =)

Judges are watching but they are not responsible for catching mistakes. Thats the players responsiblity still.

Labeling the Meditate incident simply as a "mistake" is an understatement. There is a difference between a play mistake and a rules violation.

Thanks AG and Lord Crovax. I checked at like 6 or 7 different russian online stores and none of them have any Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief. Russian cards are so rare they're not even in russian stores. I need two so damn badly

Yeah... amberson doesn't really update his store often it seems, the drana I saw was actually not in stock either. Hunting down russian stuff is definitely a pain. BTW, what were the other russian stores you looked through? I'd like to check them out for some foils

Once your total goes above X, say $50, they charge fees regardless of personal payment gift/money owed. In my experience, to get around it I send two payments (money owed) of $40 instead of a one shot $80. You need to break it up if you don't want to pay the fees, send a couple payments one day, a couple more the next, and a couple again the day after.

Pretty tough to come up with a "price" for russian foils, usually it's just whatever the last one sold at, if that information is even available. There are so few people selling and buying russian foils that the market is pretty monopolistic. It's pretty much impossible to come up with a set price.

Yea I've noticed this, usually comes down to what both parties agree is fair...I've got a few I have't even seen sold anywhere else...Despite my efforts to find one... __________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me. "Lord Crovax"

I received a payment of 207.50 today via paypal gift, no fees docked. Did you pay via credit card, or send to a different country?

If you had no money docked it means that the sender paid the fees. I paid out of my checking account to a user 1 state away.

I also just sent a payment of 279, and I had to pay no fees, and none were taken out. Maybe they've disabled it on your account?

If you have enough history of making gift payments, they catch on eventually.

Opened an insane pool today in a 2 INN 2 DKA sealed event. My green had a lot of playable c/uc and a Daybreak Ranger, but I end up playing this:Forge Devil Ashmouth Hound Erdwal Ripper One-Eyed Scarecrow Falkenrath Aristocrat Olivia Voldaren Farbog Boneflinger Nearheath Stalker Ravenous Demon Vengeful Vampire Dead Weight Geistflame Rolling Temblor Tribute to Hunger Fires of Undeath Wrack with Madness Death's Caress 7 Mountain 5 Swamp 1 Evolving Wilds I end up apologizing to everyone I faced against, because in all fairness, this is a pretty ridiculous pool, and any idiot could pilot this to victory. __________________ MOTL Fantasy NBA 2010 ChampionYou know, Hobbes, some days even my lucky rocketship underpants don't help.
