There does not seem to be an 'FNM Master' achievement but there is a 'Friday Night Master' achievement for winning at least 4 matches at a single FNM.
Not that I'm worried about these achievements (I didn't even know they existed), but darn! We only ever have three rounds at our FNM as it's always an eight man draft. I guess I'll never get this achievement, even if I do manage to get a nuts deck and draws all night...
Most big events that take place on SAt/Sun have an extra-large FNM the night before. You might not be able to get it at your store, but the achievement is another motivation to check out the big tournaments.
D&D 4E Herald and M:tG Rules Advisor I expect posters to follow the Code of Conduct, use Basic Etiquette, and avoid Poor Logic. If you don't follow these guidelines, I consider you to be disrespectful to everyone on these forums. If you respond to me without following these guidelines, I consider it a personal attack. I grew up in a bilingual household, which means I am familiar with the difficulties in adopting a different vocabulary and grammar. That doesn't bother me. Persistent use of bad capitalization, affirming the consequent, and flaming bother me a great deal. Rule that I would change: 204.1b
Show
204.1b Some effects change an object’s card type, supertype, or subtype but specify that the object retains a prior card type, supertype, or subtype. In such cases, all the object’s prior card types, supertypes, and subtypes are retained. This rule applies to effects that use the phrase “in addition to its types” or that state that something is “still a [card type].” Some effects state that an object becomes an “artifact creature”; these effects also allow the object to retain all of its prior card types and subtypes.
"Eight Edition Rules Update"
We eventually decided not to change this template, because players are used to “becomes an artifact creature,” and like it much better. Players were used to Combat on the Stack, but you got rid of that because it was unintuitive. The only phrase needed is "in addition to its types"; the others are misleading and unintuitive.

The scene here in Thailand is nowhere near as big as it seems to be in the US. A big tournament here would be a pre release with 20 to 30 people. There is a GPT Bangkok next June though, so I might have a look at that.
