Todotrial is reporting the the World rounds will use Open Free rules from 2011. Is this a done deal?

I remembered it was close to Xmas as Horacio has run spoof stories before at this time of year, but couldn't remember the exact date. Had to Google. Quite interesting...

día de los Inocentes


"In its origins, the day is a sort of gallows humor. The Day of the Innocents observes the day when, according to the Gospel of Matthew in the Bible, King Herod ordered the baby boys under 2 years old in Bethlehem to be killed because he was afraid that the baby Jesus born there would become a rival. As it turned out, though, the baby Jesus had been taken away to Egypt by Mary and Joseph. So the "joke" was on Herod, and thus followed the tradition of tricking friends on that day."

Didn't quite read as an attempt at humour, but then it might have lost something in translation.

Maybe Javier's Genie analogy gives us a clue?

Our Spanish friend may be more right than he realizes. I say it will happen in 2012.
