Congratulations to my son George, who managed to score a 3rd victory in our annual Magic: The Gathering tournament. Competition this year was much more challenging – the final placing came down to a close match between three players. There were some surprises too – several of our veteran players were knocked out early to self-admitted novices (all came down to the luck of the draw). I intentionally remained as an independent observer/judge only, so as to not influence any of the matches.
In the end, we had nearly 20 players participate, and I would say a lot of fun was had by all. Now we start preparing for the 2020 competition – I expect even more of the players will be seeking to claim the trophy for themselves.
