why would the world-wide federation of gaming be U.S. only?

lol the guy said himself he is not a gamer and doesn't know shit about or play any games. How good can a company be with this kind of backing? Then he goes on contradictingly to say its made for gamers by gamers.
What is he, retarded?

The World Series has been the annual championship series of the highest level of professional baseball in the United States and Canada since 1903, concluding the postseason of Major League Baseball.

lol.
Am I the only one that heard that "you won't know what game you're going to play, so there's some strategy?"
This can't end well.

Oh wow. Someone derailed this thread badly into a big MtG advertisement. Btw now's not a bad time to start b/c there's a major card-legality rotation going on in the two most popular formats, type 1.X "Extended", and Type 2 "Standard". After nearly two years of not being able to play my spells, faeries is finally rotating out of Standard!
In other news, yes WFG IS hilarious. If only there was a way to buy stock in something failing miserably? Or is that just called gambling?

For some reason the word "Federation" ruins all credibility this guy had for me...

Randomly remembered this sham of a league and thought I would check up on it... no updates since July 4th 2009 a couple days before this thread started.
I wonder if they have refunded the people who payed $10 for their "service"? Or maybe it's still going to happen...
So anyone got any news, from other sources, on what is going on with this league?

It just really annoys me. So many people with decent english write payed so often that it spreads and idiots think it's the actual spelling, simply by sheer force of repetition. It must be brought to their attention whenever possible.
Also yeah, the whole thing was a scam. But we knew that from the start.

There's far more to poke fun at, but you get the picture: You're in no position to judge.

Meh mistakes happen. I know how it's spelled, I know it's paid, I just didn't notice that I screwed up.
