Always worth the read, congrats!

Thanks for the report! In the Round 8 Game 2, did you just throw your hand against his hoping he didn't have a Force after a mull?
P.S. Recommend JLA - Tower of Babel if you haven't read it. Great Batman story!
Congrats again, Bryant.
Well you could just Silence in response if he plays something afterwards that makes you feel threatened. If he lays a land after the Ponder he could be holding Silence himself and attempt to haymaker you during the Combo turn. I see nothing wrong with letting him Ponder away here, and saving the Silence to avoid a blowout.
Wow I can't read apparently, but he could still Silence in response to a Lotus Petal or whatever, it wouldn't protect him from an opposing Silence though but he still got there.
Playing the Silence in response to the ponder does seal the deal. No lands could be played and no mana sources could have been laid down meaning no available mana for the opponent during Bryant's turn. "Saving it" to avoid a blowout wouldn't apply even if the opponent had a silence.

Batman: The Long Halloween is an excellent read.
Congratulations, Bryant. I was seated between you and Jim Davis in Round 2. I was tempted to say hello as a fellow Sourcer, but didn't want to seem like a fanboy. If I wasn't so nervous being in my first Open and making sure I didn't have to piss during rounds, I would have taken some time to watch your games and see you Grapeshot people to death. Hopefully I will see some of that in SCG Providence.
