I love our Canadian regionals. You've been the MC for every single one I've attended (2003-Present GTR, 2007-Present WAT). QtrFinals and Finals introductions are always among the highlights. Your knowledge of random team trivia is astounding. Its easy for the powerhouses, but you manage to find something positive to say even about the relatively unknown teams. (Nice to know I wasn't the only one to remember at 2011 GTREast that the last time 1075 was in the Finals at an official event was 2003, with 188 then too.)

In comparison to the Canadian regionals, my visit to CMP in 2010 was comparatively lackluster in the stadium-show appeal department. Kind of disappointing given the venue that is at their disposal.
