How to build a Magic: The Gathering tourny winning deck? I've watched many MTG games since I was a kid around '95, but I really never got into playing much at all mainly because I didn't have the financials to afford many expensive cards at the time and none of my friends were interested in the game at all. It's been over a decade now, and I can afford pretty much anything (reasonable; i.e. I'm not going to buy an Alpha edition Black Lotus) I want because of my current paying job. I'm here to play, not to collect. Anyway, I suck at thinking of building decks with the multitude of combinations possible of picking out from thousands of cards, but I can efficiently play any deck as long as I know exactly how it functions. I've found a local comic shop that holds frequent tournaments for all sorts of games including MTG and I want to have the feeling of winning! This isn't a Pro Tour or World Championship or anything, but if I could build a deck that can play at that level, it would be nice. Any suggestions on where I should start?

What would be the best solution to build a deck or patio? More details inside!? We are considering buying a hot tub! In order to get it, we need to build a level patio or deck to place it on! We want to go the cheapest route possible, but also want it to look good and last long! The area we want the deck/patio is 12 feet by 9 feet (may do 12x12, depending on price difference)! Keep in mind there will be a lot of weight on it! Would we be better off with treated wood? Do we actually need to cement posts in the ground and build a deck on that, or would we be ok with a wood frame directly on the ground and building on that? What about pouring cement or bricks or cement blocks? Keep in mind we will be doing this ourselves and aren't the best of handpersons, but we can do basic work. So based on lower cost and average skill what would be the best route? Any details would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! One more thought too, with concrete, how thick should we make it?

How much money do you think it should cost me to build a 17Ft x 17Ft wooden deck in my back yard? I recently hired a contractor who had been doing some work to my home to build a 17Feet x 17 Feet wooden deck in my backyard. The deck has two staircase entrances. It probably comes off the ground about 3 or 4 Feet high. The contractor charged me $3,000.00 for the entire job that included his labor. The problem is that he has finished the building of the deck, but he did not stain it or include side panels on the bottom portion around the underside of the deck. Should the painting and the closing of the bottom of the deck beincluded in the work? He told me that he would need to charge me another $3,000.00 to stain the deck, place paneling along the bottom sides to close it off, plaster those paneling sides and build a small bar that I want included on the deck. The total for the deck is averaging out to about $6,500...Is this fair, or am I getting overcharged? Please Help! Teddy
