Call me insane... but considering how broken the current format is with these new rules, I have to wonder if BW-on sounds more likely than one would think (after worlds)
If I recall correctly, dp-on was the format in Japan a set or two after the first set came out and it stuck like that until...
really? Huh. Never knew about that with HG/SS, considering no one ever bothered to report it. Then again, hardly anyone ever seems to report on these sort of things until the domestic version's released.
Makes buying HG/SS all the more worth it.
Since Birch says it isn't an official sanctioned event by TPCi, the rules for regionals wouldn't COMPLETELY apply here.
TPCi uses special DS's which are hooked up to a data box at the regional tournaments. This in turn showcases matches on HDTVs. But these boxes will also allow the ability...

(Not like the odds of snow conditions will still be high come in March-April, but that's besides the point :P )
Since we all can't agree if it should be held in Houston, Dallas, El Paso, Lubbock or San Antonio, I propose there's only one solution:
Give everyone a transporter so they can magically beam to Dallas for States :P
(In all seriousness, it really doesn't matter where it's held at this point...
