The sign ups will close this Friday night at 23:59 GMT, the brackets will be done late Saturday and the tournament will start on the upcoming Monday. Time to get your rating up and get into tournament form!
It's of utmost importance to schedule as fast and thoroughly as possible for all the rounds. The deadline is not a rough guideline or friendly suggestion. If you need extra time communicate it early and efficiently with the other player AND ME and we will try to work something out. "hey when" 5 days after the round has started won't be accepted.
If you don't say anything until the end of the week expect to get rewarded with an admin loss and a tournament exit. The world will not wait for you. If you get dropped from the tournament for lazy / no scheduling or not showing up to a match you won't get prize money.
If you don't start scheduling for Round 1 before Wednesday 15, 23:59 GMT you will be replaced by the next highest rated player on the sign up list.
All games must be played on Voobly using the VCOM ladder and the latest version of the WololoKingdoms mod.
If games can't be played or casted because one or both of the players use a bad and / or outdated version of the game / mod the person responsible will be punished.
No player is allowed to refuse the presence of an official streamer (see viewtopic.php?f=1628&t=134466) who has identified himself as such AND is LIVE on Twitch or any other streaming platform.
Good luck and have fun to everyone involved. Let's make this a great one.

That's cool and all to be strict about scheduling, but when you think about it, AL and AW are very, very lame. For me it doesn't even count as a victory. An AW is straight, big dogshit.
With that said, I hope we won't have ANY disqualifications, but only proper games with pros playing their best. It's a major tournament with 2k1+ players only, and without a doubt the best 1v1 tourney of 2017. Don't blow it guys.
