if P!P released this, or something similar to LLs or TOS, to tell their competitive players i would be more than happy. obviously putting it on the website would put a negative veiw on themselves and would just be a bad move. but handing the information down to the people it directly affects is a huge deal."We have found that the previous structure of travel awards did not positively affect the attendance of Junior and Senior players. This new structure takes our limited budget in attempts to increase attendance in these groups; and if the additional cash reward makes a measurable difference this year we will look to relocating prize support to make this a universal reward."
"We have recieved additional funding or been instructed to allocate a certain amount of funds into the Junior and Senior division for this years Regional Championships. This money is to be used for increasing the availability of Nationals to these players. We do not have the funds/authorization to fund the additional rewards for the Masters this year, and that may remain the case. For that we apologize and hope that the advent of more CP importance and pack prize rewards still make the even rewarding for all who succeed in the events."
"We apologize to the Masters division top 4 finishers who will not be recieving the same prize support as their Junior and Senior counterparts. We are looking into ways of rewarding these Masters preformers through means outiside of the budget, such as codes for our official online program PTCGO or Hall of Fame recognition and hope to implement them in next years reward packages."
I;m sure i could come up with more. I'd take a simple "We are truly sorry this change does not affect everyone. We hope the people who recieve less still appreciate the good we intend by the system",
this is also saying "hey were trying this, if it works then masters get added to".
but that would be the type of communication i would like to see. thats the kind of answers im looking for.
