What the other Team Highlander's think of Joules:
Gary said -- Joules -- The Combo King. Wondersoos with new cards he's the opposite of Dougie and is always a the top table with all the top players, always loses his last games or a quarter final. Makes mistakes which top players punish.
Craig said -- Joules: King combo, man who thinks Paradigm Shift is the next big thing. Apt to bottle it when he realises he's 5-0. You never know what you're about to face when you meet Joules in a tourney.
Dougie said -- Joules; the man who introduced me to the game, always has an idea for a deck but usually can't stay sober enough to win tourneys.
Joules's words of wisdom:
Always remember its just a game even if the Numpty, Scrub, 5 year old kid just stole all your ranking points. At the end of each game always congratulate your opponent.........
then give him the "You`ve just been toasted ........." card.
Gary Campbell. Slow, thoughtfull, methodical always calculates the best way to time out playing a weenie rush deck! Gary "Blackness" Campbell is renowned for his ability to bluff you into thinking he`s playing necro,.... when in actual fact he is.
Clark "GREEEEET" Swan the man who off loaded the SPOON on me under dubious circumstances in Edinburgh, the only guy I know who could have GREETED so much that we were allowed to play in the Tempest Pre Release after arriving late, and then go on to win it. No leaving straight after the tourney that day eh Clarke?????
Dougie "Backdoor" Anderson. The man I`m only used to meeting at the bar in Edinburgh tournies, and nearly always to tell me a tale of woe. Somehow, he`s always in the top 8 and I`m not, ..........but I was at the top table all day and never saw him nearby......Ah theres the backdoor!
Silas "Skinny Puppy Dude" Bath, the man who always seems to beat me at tournies, and the only man in history to win a tournament with WW and not meet a single wildfire on route, at a tournie full of red.
Iain Young , the guy who has only recently started haunting (his ranking scares the other players) the top 8 after extensive training with, myself, Doug and Mark, and the only guy I know who constantly looks in the foreign pages for deck listings!
Mark "Clone deck" Wootan, is probably one of the best deck tuners in Scotland, the only problem is its generally your deck he`s tuning! Reknowned as the perenial bridesmaid, his time has too come soon.
Craig "ZZZZZZZZZ" Mason, the slowest player in history, well known for his interesting prison variants, that win by making your mind wander to the bar during the game. while he waits for Titanias song to appear. Also rememberd for his famed fireball trade, (see Clarke Swans "Trail of the Spoon")
Andy"Fatness"Tee. A rising newcomer to scottish Magic storming into his first few tournaments, Andy has a strange knack of getting Fatties in sealed deck tournaments, not just a couple, but deck full`s.
Darran Jameson, Master of the ovinomancer, the young lad of the Highlanders, like the apprentice to the mages he`s `skillz` aren`t tuned. he`s the guy you start thinking I`m never going to live this down as yet another erhnam becomes a farmyard animal instead of a farmer!
James "Tim" Mitchell, I`ve never met at tournies except at the bar, or the Highlander gathering point as its known, reknowned for his tim machine gun deck that makes opponents go "Quick side in the Earthquakes". Always hilarious to watch as top players get threatened by tim beatdown. A consistent 3-3 man.
