I distinctly remember the day I met my first boyfriend. I was dueling a friend, and he (Cris) came in a ROTC uniform. He informed me that we were dueling wrong (I was a noob). I later found out that he was in my world geography class. The first time I talked to him besides that was when he had a strange yellow hair in his normally black, puffy hair. Later on we sat by each other and quickly became friends. Later on I asked him out in i think it was Nov 2001. We met in the morning and we dueled along with the other losers (Javier, Willie, Francisco, etc). I broke up with him in May 2002 and started going out with Michael. We still remained friends until May of 2004. I got really mad at him and refused to talk to him. Then I was his friend again, then I confronted him and threatened to kill him and his new girlfriend. Things just went downhill from there and my life still sucks.

I started playing this game when I was 12. Now I am 16 but still crazy about it. I've meet a few good duelist but not in my country.

In my school, my friends keep teasing me for playing this game because they think I am childish.

But I don't think so. Most of the duelist I know were about my age.

Yu-Gi-Oh has given me a whole lotta entertainment. I am now having a deck that suports my fav monster: the Dark Magician.

Shheeesssh!! has it changed my life??? Deng right it has!

Yugioh it´s such hard concentration games, I love it. The way you can expect to play everything trusting your draw becomes everything at a point. And when you´re about to loose, you get that one card you needed to flip things around, and win.

I hate web-site-made decks. I hate all powerfull decks with expensive super rare heavy storms or stuff like that. I prefer to make my deck as original as possible, and with the cards i really like. Some laugh because I play Maiden of the moonlight on my light deck, but it happens I like that card, so it´s a stapled.

EVERYTHING I REALLY NEEDED IN LIFE I LEARNED IT FROM YUGI-OH CARDS

* Seto runs his own company and so do I. -teaches we deserve to know well the market we work and provide service for... (ain´t that neat?)

* He finds a gap and resolves to sell a product to solve it (that´s it Hardvard, keep listening :)

* DEFINETLY HAS BOOSTED MY 6TH SENSE. if you play yugi-oh trying to predict and really, really SEE what card you are going to play before you play it, if you play yugi long enough, the rest of the day things you don´t even know will cross your mind, and then you´ll hear, see or believe to happen, DO REALLY HAPPEN. (I´ve played for 3 straight years now)

* You need to keep your girlfriend happy (Equip low atk female monsters with Axe or Necklace)

* You can invest low and get rich (pay 800 lp to revive Angel Joann destroying Jinzo on the other side of field, increase own LP by 2400 - laugh at trap cards)

* If you get the upper hand in bussines it doesn´t mean you´re already on top (you could get out of cards)

* Some times greed is good (play pot of greed in a one-chance-turn-the-game around)

* Dead is not a last matter of life. (You could also remove them from game and bring them back to the field with dimension fusion)

* Have you noticed there are non BLOND chicks in this game on the art of the cards?

* Machines should never fail (fuse them)

* Fire does really "burn" (lock 2 lava golems with limit level area b to the opponent)

* Water does heal (Cure mermaid with solemn wishes)

* Light and thunder DO mix (Zaborg Ready!)

if it wasn't for yugioh, me and one of my close HS friends wouldn't have met again after he finished HS a year before me. since the only times we really talked were in HS once we got together and found out each other played the yugioh game we started hangin out more and goin to tournies together. and also yugioh helped me and my GF to get together one of her friends introduced us sayin that i played cuz they all wanted to learn. i think that the game has changed the lives of anyone who really gets into the game other than just as a small hobby to do on saturdays (much like some people did) in fact i didn't even get real into playing until me and my friend started to trade and play and we decided to find a way to get to the closest card shop which is like a 15 min. drive

i started 4 years ago when the japanese cards were starting to pop up and i pulled a black demons draagon out of my pack and for those of you who dont know thats a black skull dragon any way nothing really drastic just a cool card sadly i didn't find out about the realms for a while like maby a year ago dont know but it helped but now im just known as the cheapest player in my school useing united we stand and scape goat can really piss some people off

dark ruler i went thro almost the same thing you did i have had alot of break ups but i yasly dont threaten them lol but i do get mad lol god luck wit the whole boyfriend thing and happy dueling i would like to see you win alot ttyl bye bye how do i post topics again??? lol anyway talk to you all later cause i gotta bounce good luck again dark!

Yugioh has changed my life, too. With all the store credit I've won at my local store from Yugioh, I can go on and play VS. System!!
