Bracket Sign-up 2020-05-10 - 2020-06-09 [1v1+2v2]/2020-07-19 [4v4] (20:00 GMT):
To make the registration easier, you are allowed to register here in multiple separate posts for one national team, but all of you will later be merged, not be counted as a A, B or C team. It would help if you don't do this one by one if you know there are more people from your country around, though.
If you do so, the one indicated as a team admin then is responsible to communicate with the other team admins about who plays which map.
All teams must use this thread to register. The application must include:
- A list of all players in the team (no minimum or maximum).
- One contact player/team admin. He/She does not have to play in the tournament, but is responsible for the communication and uploading the recorded games of your team’s matches.
- A link to the Steam profile and aoe2.net profile of every player. Voobly links can be provided and will help with seeding, but will not be mandatory.
- To register, all players of the team must have read and accepted all the rules and settings.
- You can add more players to the team until the end of the registration phase, after it has been registered. This way you can already sign up for the brackets. Please try to avoid conflicts within your team regarding who signs up for which map. A good team chemistry will lead you to the win.
- If you wish to host a challenge [see Rules & Settings], announce your challenge already with the registration and provide a link to obtain the exact map and map version, so other players can prepare for the map too. It can be 1v1, 2v2, or 4v4. It must be a map that does not have a free bracket.
- You can only represent one country/nation throughout the whole tournament.
- I write country/nation, because there are different definitions and we would accept you representing e. g. Scotland (not Great Britain), Palestine, Gibraltar, Hong Kong or Greenland, but not states like Bavaria, Texas, Christiania etc.
- You can represent a country/nation (of) which
- is your place of birth
- you have citizenship yourself
- one of your parents has the citizenship of
- in which you have a permanent residence
- in which you have lived in the past, for minimum 3 years
- We will consider if you are interested to represent e. g. a country which is the birthplace of a grandparent or if the country you, your parent or grandparent was born in does no longer exist (e. g. a person born in the Soviet Union in a place which now is Kazakhstan, but you want to play for Russia) and discuss with you for which country you are allowed to play.
Bracket Sign-up 2020-05-10 - 2020-06-09 [1v1+2v2]/2020-07-19 [4v4] (20:00 GMT):
- The players who want to play in a certain bracket, have to sign up in that specific sign-up topic. Only one player (1v1) or team (2v2/4v4) per country/nation is allowed to sign up.
- For a 2v2 bracket, you can sign up with 2-3 players, for a 4v4 bracket with 4-6 players. All players must be registered in the main registration topic before signing up for a bracket.
- For 1v1, you can add a back-up player who is allowed to play in case the main player is unable to play. Signing up as a backup also counts towards the 4 1v1 brackets you are allowed to participate in. The seeding will be applied to whichever of the 2 players has the highest rating.
- It has to be announced which of the 2 players plays before the bracket starts, e. g. if the first round starts on Monday, June 8, you can’t change the player after June 8, 0:00 GMT. In case the primary player finds out he/she can’t play after the scheduling phase has started - in the example case June 8, 0:00 GMT - you receive an admin loss.
- Each national team is not allowed to change to the backup player more than 4 times to avoid inconveniences for the staff when making the brackets and teams using this as a strategy to confuse opponents.
- The bracket will only be launched if there is a minimum of 8 sign-ups.
- You can change the player or withdraw from the sign-up without a penalty until the end of the sign-up phase.
