You can still go to the Worlds and hope you can Grind into the real tourney.

Yea, good luck with that. Worlds are insanely hard. Trust me, Top32 is an accomplishment. Even getting in is hard.

The prizes are not at all worth the effort, but that hasn't stopped anyone thus far, has it?

As I recall, it was $7,500, but I can check...

To get into Worlds, it would take a lot of luck to get in. I didn't make it in because of 3 tails out of 3 Gengar SF flips... at least 1 could have gotten me in easily through grinders. Though the prizes are nice, DSi, $7,500 scholarship, free trip to Worlds the next year, and yeah, all that stuff like a trophy.
