To Wizards of the Coast, We the undersigned believe that the decision to abolish the Welsh Nationals will have an adverse effect on the number of players (particularly youngsters) in Wales. Card sales and attendance at Type 2 events will be similarly affected, since players will have little incentive to progress. Transport and accomodation costs make travel within the UK more difficult than in other countries, although the distances involved may be less. We therefore ask that Wizards reconsider the decision and continue to hold separate National championships in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and England. This petition will be presented to Wizards of the Coast by December 2006
