Pretty much what Di said.
I'm also generally annoyed by how Wizards lets SCG take a GP and basically treat it like an oversized SCG Open. SCG branding/ads/employees everywhere, Magic branding nowhere. I guess it's too much to ask for Wizards to actually do their own GP coverage.
“It's possible. But it involves... {checks archives} Nature's Revolt, Opalescence, two Unstable Shapeshifters (one of which started as a Doppelganger), a Tide, an animated land, a creature with Fading, a Silver Wyvern, some way to get a creature into play in response to stuff, some way to get a land into play in response to stuff (a different land from the animated land), and one heck of a Rube Goldberg timing diagram.”

Somehow, I was not impressed by his plays and asked myself quite often how he'd gotten into T8.
Edit: Just ontopic for the SCGGrinder#100 vs the Legacy legend (that I didn't know until I read it here). In terms of GP performance, the first one did way better while being covered.
man, the gp just felt like an scg tournament to me. I want BDM in the booth.
I think the biggest thing is the deep seeded emotional understanding that the right play is the right play regardless of outcomes. The ability to make a decision 5 straight times, lose 5 times because of it, and still make it the 6th time if it's the right play. - Jon Finkel

Went 12-3 for 45th place with Deadguy Ale. One of my losses was to Bob Huang, so I will be keeping tabs on Channelfireball to see what he says about me on his report.
LOL, when I lost round 12 to Bob, I see Lam (I play against him from time to time in Toronto area) and asked how he did that round since we were both 11-1 (well me now 11-2). He won. I said I was happy for 2 reasons. He's a good guy and happy he's doing so well and number 2, I've only beaten him twice when he's on UR Landstill. Once as Deadguy, the other as Tin Fins. So with his win and my loss, I'm not likely to face him next round as he's an auto loss for me.
