Thursday Pauper Challenge 25-Dec; 62 Players. You have to be a little Mad to play MTGO on Xmas, which explains the absolute domination of R Madness this challenge. 3 in top 4 and 10 in top 32. Blink Dredge went 8-0 before losing in the finals. Altar Tron also managed a top 8. #MTGPauper

Sunday Pauper Challenge 21-Dec; 62 Players. R Madness wins with Jund in 2nd. Top 8 was very diverse, with Fams, Affinity, Fog, Hexproof, UB Fae and Jeskai to round it out. U Terror continues to be the most played deck in top 32 (7) now that RB madness hype has died down. #MTGPauper

I don't think I can ever get past top 8 of challenges if I ever get there. Saw Turbofog won yesterday using Seasonofmists
Paupergeddon list and wanted to give it a spin. Duress over Campfire in this current meta is pretty good. Deck is still a dog to R Madness though. #MTGPauper

Sunday Pauper Challenge 6-Dec; 74 Players! Black Sac and Gardens split the finals. Fams and Cawgates in top 4. Probably the most diverse top 32 seen in a while, 19 different archetypes. Didn't stop U Terror and Jund from being the most played (4). Real lack of red in this top 32. #MTGPauper

Saturday Pauper Challenge 6-Dec; 51 Players. In a callback to Paupergeddon, finals was Fams v R Madness. Flicker Tron manages to sneak a top 8 after a decent absence. A U Terror went undefeated in swiss and was most played (6), still no consensus if Delver is still worth playing. #MTGPauper

Sunday Pauper Challenge 30-Nov; 64 Players. Back to normal sized challenges and UB Terror takes the win with Abandon Attachments. Lots of diversity amongst the top decks. Rally was the most played (5) my guess as a answer to R Madness. Gruul Landfall in 12th was cool to see. #MTGPauper

Paupergeddon Top 8. Red Madness takes down the whole tournament as the most played deck. Top 8 decently diverse. Familiars making the finals is always nice to see. Caw gates also never gets the respect it deserves except at Paupergeddon. Congrats to Giovanni Postorino on the win! #MTGPauper

Saturday Pauper Challenge; 37 Players. Challenge was small enough that almost have all the decks. White Weenie and Rally Red split the finals. RB Madness has another good day with 2 in top 8. U Terror significantly the most played (7). Without that the challenge was real diverse.

Decided to take Boros Synthless for a run in the challenge today and managed to get a lot of decent pairings. Do feel I need a bit more lifegain in the main/side to beat the Madness decks. Snacker still feels awkward with only 5 discard outlets, but is very strong when it happens. #MTGPauper
