I think that it should or that it will function with limited features for non-registered users.

the thing is that every1 who has registered will say yes because they payed for it and to make themselves feel better about buying it*not that thats a bad thing*

and all the ppl who didnt pay for it will say that its not that big of a feature so we should get it for free so this poll is kinda screwed

The idea is cool, but the location of this poll is bad...as all registered users will say YES and non-registered will say NO.

And last I saw...there are MORE unregistered players than registered ones...so what's the voting going to look like???

My guess is that it will highly favor NO...so this poll makes no sense in the location that it is in.

My point was that Reg-users should get full draft module and Non-Reg should get the same module but with limitations...

well its just my opinion.

No, not yet...but it could surely be implemented into MWS and it's most likely a feature that will be created and tested. I can't wait!!!

Why not make tournament-legal drafting only available to non-registered users so they can play in tournaments, and allowing registered users to draft from any expansions including custom ones?

Delurking....

Unregistered User here. I voted yes...only available to registered users. I've been trying out MWS for a couple of weeks now, and I really like the program...alot. I plan on registering it after I've tested it some more. But I want the developers to improve on the program as much as possible...and for that, they need an incentive. Money is a very good one, don't you think? If they were to offer the program with full features and I only had to put up with a couple of banners and a 5 second delay on start up...I would never pay. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in this way of thinking. The next thing you know, the devs would get tired of updating it, or move on to a more profitable use of their time. They have to hold back on something, whether it be features, or time constraints to get people to register, else it goes the way of the dinosaur.

I think there should be special Prized events every so often for registered users.

Making formats exclusive to registered users will only make it less likely for registered users to find games in that format, making it less attractive to be registered.

If you are interested in drafting in a league, O-Gaming already runs many limites (Sealed/Draft) tournaments, something magic-league cannot do.

It might have been helpful to explain that you guys do that by the league admins having a software to create the packs and then you give that info to the players. This is perfect in a league where you want to eliminate cheating and essentially keep the deck "server-side", however, what about casual users? can anyone just waltz into the channel and request a sealed deck or a draft? Even better, could the software (which i assume is just a random selector similar to Appr/Netdraft that creates deck files) be made public so we wouldnt need to go to you?

Or... maybe the solution is for casual drafters, use NetDraft, then import the decks into MWS. Just have someone to volunteer to do deck checks for everyone. (have players send their final deck to verify contents)
