mtgfanatic
Your real name ?  Jace Contos
Age ? 17
Nationality ? UsofA
Occupation ? Student
Number of TrialTop2s/MasterTop8s ? To many to count/ I think 3 or 4 including this one
Why did you chose the deck you playing today and not something else ?  I chose R/u tron because i had tested almost every single other deck in the format and it looked fun to play. I am happy with playing this although there are some sb changes that i would like to make now after playing the deck.
How did you like the color setting in #master ?  i was not paying attention..how it was purple?
Who (except yourself) should win this master ? Um... As long as a combo deck doesn't win i'm cool... Stupid dredge

WhoUdontLike
Your real name ? My name is Tadeu Lara Baltar da Rocha
Age ? 16
Nationality ? Brazilian
Occupation ? Student
Number of TrialTop2s/MasterTop8s ? I dunno how many top2 in trials/in masters its the 3rd time
Why did you chose the deck you playing today and not something else ? I'm playing dredge, because it's nearly unstopable xD Even a stiuation of turn 0 leyline is often reversable. Decks with counters, that would create a problem by countering chain of vapor, are not the most played.
What do you think about MWSs stability ? I disagree with ml's dc policy. In my opinion, even when its not possible to determinate who caused the error, the player that has the error should take a gameloss. I think the actual policy allows bad players to close mws when they are going to lose, or when the time is nearly over, to get the win. This happened in the top8 of last trial, my opp's got an error exacly when I played dread return to win. I can't say he did it this way
Who (except yourself) should win this master ? Sandoiche

------------------------------------------

Ironicus
Your real name ? Gabriel Blais Bourget
Age ? 21
Nationality ? Candian (Québec)
Occupation ? Student in computer engineering
Number of TrialTop2s/MasterTop8s? I did about 4 or 5 top2/My first top8 master
Why did you chose the deck you playing today and not something else ? I 've chosen Dredge because it is my only Extended deck in real life, so i'm going to play it at PTQ (If I can find a lift)
What do you think about MWSs stability ? Well there was a point why people disliked m-l in general. New poeple got angry when they loose without doing anything. So now you did something to help it, it's perfect
How did you like the color setting in #master ?  My girlfriend was about to kill me because we had to do groceries... I didn't pay attention to colors..
Who (except yourself) should win this master ? Mtgfanatic because he's playing a good deck against dredge. Tron > Dredge

DH
Your real name ? Dalibor
Age ? 19
Nationality ? Croatian
Occupation ? Law school, MtG, friends, girls (not in that order).
Number of TrialTop2s/MasterTop8s ? 2 TrialTop2s, 3 MasterTop8s
Why did you chose the deck you playing today and not something else ? I chose Affinity because I've been playing it for some time now and it can win through all kinds of hate.
What do you think about MWSs stability ? MWS is stable enough for a free program. I won't ask anything more than this when it's free,
How did you like the color setting in #master ? I loved the colors. But, for someone's sake, why pink???
Who (except yourself) should win this master ? The best player should win.

Occupation ? Student
Number of TrialTop2s/MasterTop8s ? 4/3
Why did you chose the deck you playing today and not something else ? Ideal seems to have good matchups and I find it fun to play.
What do you think about MWSs stability ? It's irritating at times, but overall it's solid.
How did you like the color setting in #master ? Fantastic colors, especially when they were unreadable!
Who (except yourself) should win this master ? Mtgfanatic

sandoiche
Your real name ? Matheus Akio
Age ? 15
Nationality ?  I live in Santos, in Sao Paulo, Brazil
Occupation ? Student
Number of TrialTop2s/MasterTop8s ? trial wins: legacy with RW goblins and cephalid breakfast, extended twice with trinket angels... top2s in trials: RAV-TSP-9TH standart with Zoo, Dragonstorm and Nick Lovetts Boros, Legacy with UWG slivers/also a master win with GWu aggro in TSP block and a 9th place with BRW firemane in a T2 master
Why did you chose the deck you playing today and not something else ?  I was in doubt about playing enduring ideal because Shooter was gonna to play it, and i played it a few games and it seemed consistent and strong. But then i noticed i wasnt trained enough with it, and i really likes Red Goyf deck because of its consistancy
What do you think about MWSs stability ? sometimes mws bugs, but it can be avoided if players dont do mistakes while using the program, i personally like more mws than appr, and i think it was a wise decision of m-l of banning all appr trials
How did you like the color setting in #master ?  I really liked this master and want to congratulate the TC (which one is you Flippi) because this master was the fastest one i ever played here
Who (except yourself) should win this master ? I think Shiva should win the master, because he is the best player in the top 8 by far, Friggorid is probably the strongest deck in extended and Shiva knows how to pilote it well. Also, notice that he is a very good friend :D
