PDC is alive and well. With at least 8 PDC events going on each week (most if not all listed at pdcmagic.com) - we're thriving in the MTGO world.
The simplicity of this format is wonderful. Only a single common in MTGO has been banned in PDC and that was Cranial Plating. Only cards restricted? Artifact lands. Yes - MD5 was a fun janky group that shook things up. Kind of the Ross Perot and Howard Dean of Modern Magic gaming - especially in MTGO.
This will be the 5th year of Pauper Deck Challenge. Many have contributed to its growth. Strong websites like pdcmagic.com and paupermagic.com help contribute to this phenomenon. PDCmagic.com has some really cool stuff - the rewards and work they put into PDC gaming really do wonders (you get customized gfx rewards for winning pdc events). I truly appreciate what folks are doing out there - hosting events, running websites, donating prizes to pdc tournaments etc.
This is a growing movement in MTGO gaming. There are rumors that PDC has crossed over to paper in Europe, Japan and Australia but I don't see any official reports yet confirming that. PDC - Bringing folks together one common at a time. Coming together in Unity, not petty division. Oh wait, I'm reading from Barrack Obama's notes, sorry. :)
