When I read that, I was concerned that every event at WGC would be geared towards qualifying for Warmachine Weekend. No offense to the people who run that convention, but I don't think WGC should be a fluffer for them. There should be a healthy mix of qualifying tournaments, as well as one-off tournaments.

Seems like things are going in that direction though, so that's a good sign.
Lets be honest. the website was made by people who play 40K and only 40K. They don't know all the ins and outs of our community, and have even outsourced it all. From that perspective, they can only put up what they know about and need to be fed accurate information. Ive been emailing the powers that be and am bugging other people to get communication more fluid. (I even corrected the Kotei part on the l5r ticket). If we keep positive and try to help the 40K players understand our world, then things will go better for us.

I bet the winner of Masters will get the qualifying spot, and the rest of the events will either lead into masters or just be "to play warmachine"

I'm in talks with my FLGS to run Who's The Boss (We ran it a few weeks ago, had 90 casters and it was INSANE). If need be, I'll run the ****ing thing myself as after hours gaming in order for people to feel like they aren't being pigeon holed.
