the TBC league really screwed with uk tournaments. it made a divide between london and other cities, and instead of having country wide tournaments, which benefited everyone and pushed the tournament mentality, it segregated london players. to be fair london could happily host its own tournaments but then why should they and invite everyone else when the same isn't reciprocated! i think the core of london players that were around the past few years, succeeding world wide, which the TBC guys were concerned about have lost the love and the segregation tournaments have just pushed the newer london players away from having tournament aspirations!
