[Leehar]

OK, we have 11 full teams so far, and 12 more teams that still need players (see Page 1). First 5 teams that collect 6 members are in, first come, first served.
Also, National Teams that don't have home map in Conquer Club (Croatia, New Zealand, South Africa, Guatemala...) please choose your home map that is closest to your country, region or continent, Serbia allready got Balkan Pennisula...

Ok, our last player is FatHarry
And I think we'll be playing on SA 1885, but I'll just confirm in-case majority wants Africa

Also, with regards to triples splits. We can't have an even split between the high and lower ranked for better breakdown? (1,3,5 and 2,4,6 ranked from all teams?)

No, triple teams stay as planned, three highest and three lowest. You can always help your teammates with advise

[Big Long Stick]

irishman in New Zealand here - i'll play fo NZ if they'll have me

[tnekzai]

I am in for Team Canada. Go Canucks Go

[stevkov]

OK, we have 16 Full Teams, requesting privileges...

Also, New Zealand, Croatia, USA 1 and USA 2 will have to choose home maps.

I will make the drawing of the groups during the day. All 16 teams will be divided in 4 pots according to their ratings, each group will have one team from each of the 4 pots. We shall have Round 1 starting soon.

[Leehar]

Ok, and with regards to captain, it'll be slickstick tho otherwise I could fill in I guess

[SirSebstar]

For 1v1 matches, it will be like in chess olympics, i will put the highest ranked player of Team A against highest ranked player of Team B, second highest ranked of Team A against second ranked player of Team B etc.

For 3v3 matches i will put three highest ranked players of Team A against three highest ranked players of Team B, and three lowest ranked players of Team A against three lowest ranked players of Team B.

1v1 matches bring 1 point, and 3v3 matches bring 2 points. So at the end the score should look like 6:4 or 5:5.

You get 2 points for match win, 1 for draw and 0 for loss.

Each team should name a captain (if not i will put the highest ranked player as captain) that i will use to coordinate the schedule and home maps. Each team can name one substitute player, the substitute player should be from same nation.

With regard to 1vs1 matches, when will the ranking be determined? i.e. now or at the moment of joining or when?
and substitue player, is a 7th yet unnamed player? or one of the 6?

[stevkov]

For Round 1 i just collected ratings for all 96 players, 5 minutes ago. I plan to do this for every round.

You can find all 16 teams sorted by ratings at Page 1, they are divided in 4 pots and the draw will follow later this afternoon.

[SirSebstar]

Ah man this is gonna be a brilliant tourney Only thing i'll say is it'd have been cool to have Sweden instead of USA 2 (no offence) just to make it more realistic. Either way bring on the DRAW! >:)

[WPBRJ]

Also, Team USA 1 and 2, choose your home map, if possible choose some US Regional Map or City if you are all from same place. If some country has two maps, the captain will have to decide which one will be used as home map

if you still need our home map

USA

Game 8836227

First blood for South Africa

[SirSebstar]

well crap, another game going to brazil... stupid dice..

[stevkov]

I just send one more invitation to the players that failed to join. After this invitations expire, the teams will have to name a substitute player in 24 hours or the points go to the other team. I'm doing this only for Round 1, after Round 2, after two failed invitations (without good explenation) your opponent will get the win.

Being freemium counts as good explenation? what happens if the player could join the triples but not the one on one? and this happened because he had no room, will he get another chance? some of us (freemius) thought that the tournament was beginning in one week more or something like that
