Hey guys,

I want to do some statistics about current legacy-meta and I need some help.
Here is how it works:
I am currently collecting data from several pairings. What I need are the real outcomes of each game; the decks you and your opponent played and the tournament you participated in. Here is an example.

SCG Open Atlanta
(You) ANT: 2
(Opp) Zoo: 1

Please report only…
1. …games YOU played on tournaments
2. …games from which you recognize the real outcome (so no guesses please!)
3. …if you are convinced that you know which deck your opponent was playing.

If you can support more detailed information please let me know (e.g. if you played DDANT or ANT).

Please feel free to report ANY pairing (under the conditions named above) to me via PM here one mtgthesource.com or just post in this thread.

Rewards:
- hot information before I publish my article (coming up end of year 2010)
- an ackowledgement in my article
- a warm and fuzzy feeling

If you are interested in more information about what I am doing with the data, please let me know.

Thank you!

try clicking on the metagame breakdown from each tournament and downloading their respective metagame spreadsheets?

Sorry but those spreadsheets dont say anything about the actual outcomes of single games, those are "just" summaries.

You are not going to get any useful data asking random people to report old match results.

Pretty sure SCG's spreadsheets *do* have game results, anyway. Did you really look?

Yes they do. Look deeper.
