Hey Steel!

It's good to see you back on here.  If you don't mind my asking, what caused you to stop playing and organizing?  Does your return to these forums serve as an indication that you are returning to magic and TOing?

A lot has changed in the last 6 months:

1) Magic Player Rewards have been cancelled. 
2) Tournament Organizing has changed quite a bit.  Stores have more options and support while independent T.O.s have less.  You can read an FAQ on the changes here.  You can join in the conversation on this thread
3) There is a new site to visit for sanctioning information, policy documents, and everything else related to organizing. 
4) WER actually works pretty bug free now.  There are still some bugs with the program, but nothing that is noticeable in your average event. 

Other than that, I'd say everything is just about the same.  

Hope all is going well,

yeah its generally argeed by eveyone that isn't WotC that its a craptastic move and its one step above cutting out browncoats (independent TOs) from the WPN

Character and world creation are a form of expression. The point is that some people don't have much to say...

1.- A lot of things came togheter, I Failed at my Judge exam, College Took a lot of my Time, My Store Close (But now, Its Reborn, and stronger than ever),The Team leader from the Magic blog where i used to wrote, Dissapeared, The Rotation of My Favorite Deck (Naya), And at some point, i Just stopped having fun at the game... So, i Just  Retired until better times comes, I barely touch my cards after M11 and until December (After Watch Worlds), i re-take  my boxes.

Created a Kinda Boros Deck (and as been evolving since then), and started playing organizing once more.

2.-Now I Found a Community, similar at what i left, but with the constant question Why Play Standar, or competitive if the MPR, doesnt exist.

The Gateway or whatever the new name is, doesnt appared in the store, and from what i have read/heard, are going to be the same all the year?(It is True?).

Sorry i dont want to this become another thread, against WoTC or WPN policies, but come on, they need to admit they made some mistakes

If you have a store that your associated with,you'll still get the gateway kit (which REALLY should be called something else now) however if your not with a store then the only two things you can order are membership cards and an "event support kit" which will only support one event once your players realize that it will be the same promos for a whole year. The promos for the ESK will only change once every core set,so for the MBS ESK it will be the same promos from the m11 gateway kit. speaking of that kit anyone need some flings and tree huggers?
