Hello everybody, I cannot start new topic here so I post it here.
I was excited when I saw this post with international tournament, but this tournament was cancled.
In the meantime I contacted one Russian player and he was also excited about international tournament and so he started to ask in RU forum and they liked that idea. So it looks we can now make international tournament between RU/EU teams.
As I was told, he asked WG for support and they offered good help. They said ( at least like he said
) WG can start TEST SERVER just for us, couple days before 1.8 start ( how many days depends on how many teams will participate)
About ping issues, I was told that test server is somewhere in Netherland so they will have same issus ( maybe EU players will have little advantage)
In RU server there are already 40 clans that wants to participate so I want to ask if here is some interest to participate in this tournament.
I translated rules from RU server with help of google translate and my friend Kasius27.
These rules will be slightly changed and updated by time, so here are just for information. ( Please excuse my english i am beginner, I tried but i can see a lot of mistakes there
. )
So I hope i wrote everything I want, please comment bellow ask questions whot is not clearly written.
