MTGSalvation forum administrator urzassedatives reported receiving a message outlining the following items:

• Expanded GP system in 2010
• Possibly another subsidized event on a large scale in 2011
• More local store support
• Added support for states
• More "surprise bonuses" for existing players.

This could be a sizable shift after seeing the organized competitive play contract with the removal of a fourth Pro Tour stop, the loss of a day at Worlds, and the removal of States/Champs. This message, if true, suggests a shift towards feeling ready to expand organized play again given the upswing in interest and players.

We will reach out to Wizards about these points today to see if there is any comment that can be shared with us.
