I'm happy to see that second place still gets a sizeable amount of money. I was afraid that it would drop down to something like $5k and then no money after the top 8. Even though there is a significant drop between 1st and 2nd, I think the prize payouts are very good.

Outside of first, the prizes are about half was I was hoping they would be (Outside the 1K prizes which sound be 1K after top 50). I am glad it's in California still (Cheaper for us Arizona guys). It looks like there is going to be a ton of people whom qualify though. Looks like there will be less stress to perform well at nationals with them counting each rating seperately and then of course, depending on how they handle Honor Rankings.
Any estimates on how you believe they will cut the ratings? Also, is it Constructed and Sealed, or Constructed or Sealed? Are they averaged?

I also find it interesting that the Worlds page is up before the Nationals page is.
