Many, many years ago I went to a large, unsanctioned Highlander-format tournament with a B/W control build (note for current players who may not know: Highlander was the name of the unofficial 100-card singleton format before EDH/Commander took off). The whole point of the deck was to keep things going slowly until I could get Shahrazad out and force a subgame.
I went 2-0-11 in open play. I won what the tournament organizers called an "unofficial anger prize" -- a pack of 100 of each basic land, a refund of my admission fee, and an order to never do it again. There was something about being the last match to end, every single time, that frustrated them somehow.

TL;DR: We have the same favourite card.
