World Magic Cup, Pro Players Club & Fixed Planeswalkers Points

@DreamtimeDrinne You've posted/written some thought-provoking things re:MTG OP recently. Would you like to come to GenCon to talk in person?

Consider yourself a guest of @HeleneBergeot and myself... airfare, hotel, badge all on the house.

The PWP threshholds are fine and are inviting the correct number of people. Problem also gets better when "Top 30K PWP" invites expire.

We looked at GP byes today. Increase in round-1 byes is due to PWP + old Pro club. This goes away once we stop giving byes to Level 1 Pros.

There will be a few too many round-1 byes for the rest of this year but we aren't going to disincentivize PWPs to fix it. We'll ride it out.

If we maxed out byes at GPs at *two* for everyone (trials, PWPs, Pro level), would you be less likely to go?

After careful review of the play patterns across two seasons since the debut of Planeswalker Points, Wizards of the Coast will be adjusting the point thresholds for Grand Prix byes.

The new levels will be 400 Seasonal Planeswalker Points for a one-round bye, 750 for a two-round bye, and 1500 for a three-round bye. These changes go into effect immediately for the April 2–August 19, 2012 season. Players who reached the previous levels during the December 26, 2011–April 1, 2012 season will receive byes in the current season of Grand Prix based on the old thresholds.

• 1 bye : 400 points
  
• 2 byes : 750 points
  
• 3 byes : 1500 points

• Chaque qualifié a le droit a un (et un seul) invité, qui peut entrer sur les lieux du tournoi et regarder les parties.
  
• Le jeudi soir, les participants et les invités sont conviés à des boosters drafts gratuit, avec pour seule limitation qu'il n'est possible de s'inscrire qu'à un seul toutes les 1h30.

the points needed for the Players Club levels next season have been adjusted slightly and the cost of Gold and Platinum got a little more pricey. The new levels are as follows:

Platinum—45 (was 40)
Gold—30 (was 25)
Silver—15 (same)

This does not affect anyone who has already locked in a level for the current season.

The summary is pretty simple. There will only be one- or two-round byes handed out for team GPs and those byes will be handed out via the same criteria that single-player byes are handed out—Planeswalker Points, Pro Club Level, Hall of Fame, and Grand Prix Trial winners.

The big difference for team events is that only one player on the team needs to have unlocked the byes in order for the whole team to enjoy them.

Si non, qui je dois contacter ?

Thx.
