Updated 12/8/2010: Tomoharu Saito has been removed from the 2010 class of the Hall of Fame according to Wizards of the Coast.

According to a translation of Tomoharu Saito's blog, he will not be inducted into the Magic: The Gathering Pro Tour Hall of Fame this year. According to his blog post, he's had a number of emails from Wizards concerning the various aspects of the recent actions, from his disqualification in Florence, the subsequent ban, and reportedly an email concerning the fact that he will not be inducted this year.

The original blog post is published here, and the questionable Google translation contains the following phrase:

Neither the DCI nor Wizards of the Coast were immediately available for confirmation or comment, but consider it to be fairly certain that this is a correct interpretation. This is of course following the news of Saito's disqualification from Grand Prix Florence as well as his 18 month suspension.

Updated 10:24pm EST - Our writer Brendan Weiskotten has provided the following translations of Saito's blog:

"The Hall of Fame cancellation e-mail came later. Up until now I have been trying to stay positive. I accepted that evaluating it was correct, but am disappointed in the decision. Considering [the situation] (actually refers to previously mentioned parts of the situation) I think it is the appropriate decision."

"The DQ, the suspension, and the HoF cancellation. These are not befitting actions for someone who has [publicly announced their attempt at POY.]"
