And now, NC Taiwan has announced that it is offering a $10,000 cash prize if the top guild in Taiwan can beat the newly-crowned Guild Wars World Champion in an exhibition match. Find out the details on this page.
sounds like it'll be a fun match to watch ^^

and the odds that the guild in Taiwan is 1:100,000.
Why else do you think they would offer 10 grand

As much as I'm inclined to cheer for Taiwan (Both my parents were from there), that ain't going to happen.

On the official GW site was saying they had beta ever since dec., but I wonder if that is even enough.

For all you know, you can have TW players in America version (remember those ember light camp chinese?). In that sense, quite some of them had already play guildwar for quite awhile now.

I doubt they have any chance regardless. However, that really depend on how desperate are they to get the 10k.

Couldn't one of the top 10 guilds now switch to a taiwanese server? Or is that not allowed?

You can only compete for the area that your passport show.

I'm not inclined to say it won't happen. It will be tough but it's definately possible. Taiwan had been in beta since around december, that doesn't mean people there couldn't have gotten a copy of the game from the US, Europe or even Korea a lot earlier than december and just been practicing in other guilds.

I think its already based on 2 TW teams. (they already did their own ladder battles)
On the official site. it mentioned that 2 TW will be fighting to see who faces the '06 champion.

Case in point: The Wandering Wolves [TWW]

Zero chance though.
