YGO OP ?In a Transitional Period? To Resume in New Year
Date: 12/15/2008
Yu-Gi-Oh! organized play is ?in a transitional period,? according to an open letter to Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game Duelists from Konami VP Yumi Hoashi released late Sunday. Konami is currently ?evaluating all aspects? of the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG organized play, according to the letter, including Shonen Jump Championships, Sneak Previews, Hobby store participation, and player rankings?? It urges all Yu-Gi-Oh! players to keep playing until organized play activities ?resume in the New Year.?



The open letter comes in the wake of the news Friday that Konami is taking control of the U.S. distribution of the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG itself (see ?Konami Takes over YGO TCG?). Konami stressed its commitment to the brand, currently in its 10th year. ?Duelists, organized play, and the property mean a tremendous amount to us,? according to the announcement.
