Good decision to keep the gaming room open 24 hours.

Well, for those curious-
68 Juniors
75 Seniors
103 Masters
Are what is listed right now for those competing in the TCG World Championships. 1 Japanese Seniors invited. I suppose that would be the result of only having two age divisions. I know for a fact that not everyone intending to attend is listed on the competitor list right now, but its an interesting viewpoint on the effects of it being in Hawaii.

So, anyway, anybody official able to verify LCQ registration? The site says 8-8:30 on the LCQ page, yet it says 9-10 on the main schedule. While I'm at it, is retail open Friday? Competitor packet suggests not, but the main schedule on the site says yes.

Maybe I'm crazy, but the floating mask Pikachu is holding: lone head, big ears, fluffy sideburn-like things, a jaw that looks like it would simply move and up and down viciously, eyebrows lowered in an angry glare.

Is Pikachu teaming up with Andross? I guess it's time to do a barrel roll.

The Truth Is Out There.

I'm surprised about being able to play against the VGC champions in the World Tournament. Looks amazing.

That is really cool, although it's unfortunate the AI won't be able to replicate that player's strategy effectively.

Anyone else notice how odd it is that when you enter the site, it asks you if you'd like to view the site in German, Italian, Spanish, French, or English, but if you click anything other than English, you just get a little note that says they're only going to update in English? Wonder why they bothered with the whole "select your language" thing.
