Lets Talk: Local

Let's see, back in the CA bay area, I go to 3 different "locals" none of which are actually in Oakland where I live.

C&J Collectibles has a good crowd on the Vanguard tournament days (Saturdays), like maybe 30 people in tournament (plus about 30 for yugioh making a huge crowd). They carry bushiroad sleeves too. Packs are $2.75, boxes are online retail +$5. Tournament entry is $5.

Dang, do you go to the same C and J collectibles as I do? (I'm not sure if there are more than one C and J)... I hate the shop owners at the one I go to, they never seem to value their customers and are rude to the highest degree.

We finally got some new players at our local that transferred from another store. I was so so happy, mostly because they were very good players and showed my meta the big fish in little pond that was starting to happen. They mostly play/talk with me though and for the life of me I can't understand why. But I can say I find the new challenge very good and something to help build my skills up, lord knows I need it.

They read V-Mundi? That might explain why they talk to you.

Actually I did ask them that and they say they glance at it every now among the other vanguard blogs and use their own previous game knowledge in conjunction with what they read.
