Hi all,

I've been getting some PMs from newer players to the site about not being able to register for the tournament using the on-site tool due to RR requirements.

I'm just sending this out to assure everyone that this isn't an issue - you're fully registered if I've accepted you in this thread. Once the games have started I can make sure everyone is added to the on-site tournament registry.

However, the primary place you should be going for scoring updates and checking out other teams is here . This is where all of the officially registered teams are, and where you should look for the most up-to-date team scores and role assignments. The on-site tool is super handy for quick links to all of the tournament games, and I anticipate everyone checking it out for that, more than scoring and registration.
This is great to hear. Webdip is not my main site so this is wonderful news to me

Hi all,

As an update - today (yesterday?) and Tuesday are horrible work days for me, and Squiggs has been busy as well. I shall try to get a tournament bracket out tomorrow and games created Wednesday, but no promises.

Signups will remain technically open until the tournament bracket is posted.

Also, I believe the count is currently at 15.

If we have 6 teams sitting on the sidelines, we can get this to 21. I'd really like that to happen.

Well, you might have to allow a few more days maybe? I'm out of any teams and was going to sit it out as I thought I had run out of time but if there was, say, another week maybe could give it a try...21 sounds much nicer than 14 but hey!

I think both Squigs and I are fairly busy, so games wouldn't have started until the weekend anyways.

I will extend signups through Saturday.

Hi all,

Please check the tournament site to ensure all your team members are on there. If you have not already given me your game assignments, please do so by the end of the week.

Given the number of fresh players (whose GR on the site may not reflect their performance potential) and the fact that we are likely to get a 14 team tournament, I will not be seeding by GR this year. I will just to a random seeding into Groups A and B.

When I announce the Groups this weekend, I will be sending PMs to team captains. These will contain the links and passwords to all games. Please ensure your members join them promptly. All the games in the tournament (per Group, and aside from 1v1s) must start simultaneously.

I think you need to update Team North Sea onto the site still :)

Team North Sea has not been accepted as they're the 15th team. You can only get in if there are 6 more entries, sorry.

No chance. I'll find much more satisfaction in watching Gold regret his choice to exclude us.

A reminder to everyone to PM your teams once you have them complete. If we end up stuck between tournament sizes (14 vs 21 vs 28) I'll be taking teams on a first-come first-serve basis.

North Sea is one, there's players for another Northeast US team, so it's only really four more teams needed.

What recruitment tactics are out there...
