As most of you know, the 5th Raw Deal World Championship will take place April 1st as part of the WrestleMania weekend festivities in Chicago.
To date, the following “Raw Dealers” have qualified for the championship:

S.E. Qualifier: Anthony Ogden

The remaining spots will be filled as follows:
A. Remaining Qualifiers
- Singapore
B. #1 Ranked Player
- As established by the Raw Deal rankings.
C. Lethal Lottery
-One player will be chosen from a pool consisting of the top 50 players or the #1 ranked player in your territory (state, province or country).
D. “Second Chance Lottery”
- A second chance for those who placed in the top 8 or 16 at a Raw Deal qualifier.
- We will select one name at random from this group of strong players who came close to qualifying the first time around.
- Top 16 from: Origins, Gen Con, N.Y. Neutral Ground.
- Top 8 from: All others.
(Brian gets another shot too, but let's be fair.. David Marks has good odds here)
E. Manager Qualifier
- We have not forgotten our valuable Raw Deal Managers! One manager will be selected at random to be our guest in Chicago and compete for the World Championship.
(WOOOOOOOTTTT!!)
F. “Windy City Qualifier”
- As the host city of WrestleMania, there will be a “last chance” qualifier held at a to-be-determined location in Chicago in late March.
Shame it couldn't be Jan 15 when I plan on going there anyway
