There seems something wrong when players from a big clan are taking up more than one slot. One clan I noticed has players taking at least six slots, and I know the rules say any one can raise a team. This dosent seem a very fair way of setting up this championship, as there was when I last looked over 450 applications, a little bit more thought into allocating the slots next time please, the format is good though. With so many applications you could have had four lots of 128, just a thought.

Ok, I think we can enlarge quota up to 256 teams, I hope that there won't be any free slots in the tournament table. I'll change all the "participation denied" statuses to "forming" and reopen registration on Monday 18th at 12:00 UTC. All teams that are already in the championship will keep "accepted for participation" status.

1/128 will take place on July 25th 18:00 UTC and 1/64 is rescheduled on July 25th 19:40 UTC.

Official news update you can read here

Does that mean that accepted teams can also swap players or atleast take more players if they still have rooms?

Yes, but only add players, no replacements allowed. Capitan should send me PM on Monday with "Add player %teamname%" subject. PM should contain link to the team and nicks of players to be added. PMs without link will not be considered.

Any information you think is necessary for GM. This field is not obligatory to enter the championship.

I thought this field was to contain the initials, last name, age and email of all participants?

Is it allowed to switch Tanks between the Battles (not the Matches!!!).
4 Example: First round loose because enemys are rushing, is it allowed to switch for the secound round to more defensive Tanks or not?

If i understand it correctly, yes. You and your team just have to stay within the allowed tiers (of course :) ). And during the first Drill (the training camp) it was allowed

I am pretty sure that yes, you CAN switch vehicles.

1) It was allowed during DTC and it´s part of strategy.
2)

4. A team roster should consist of 7 players, and may include up to an additional 3 reserve players. The teams primary vehicle's do not need to be declared.
7. Reserve players are limited to a maximum of 3 players. The reserve primary vehicles do not need to be declared.
8. Any team member on the primary roster may participate in different battles with any vehicle allowed by the regulations, on condition that this vehicle does not bring his team's total tank tier points above the designated limit.
9. Reserve player may replace Primary player with any vehicle on condition that this vehicle does not bring his team's total tank tier points above the designated limit. It is allowed to change vehicles between matches (meetings) and between the battles of a match.

You dont have to declare vehicle, so you can take any you want.

I've already answered your questions.

We have been experiencing some network issues with closing the registration, so do you with closing team enrollment. The last team to register was JOKERS -J-. Their registration time is 19:47 July 18th.

My Random Pro Team seems to be one of the sad 27 teams who were left out despite forming a complete lineup: http://uc.worldoftan.../tournaments/9/ . You can still see our team under 'Pending Approval' but as the registration is closed it's not actually pending anything! http://forum.worldof...t/Smile_sad.gif

After the registration was re-opened yesterday at 12:00 (UTC) we apparently had only 7h 47min to submit our teams as that's when the last team managed to get in (at 19:47 UTC). That seems like a ridiculously short time period for making up a complete team to me.

Wargaming.NET, please consider higher team limits (e.g. 512) or bigger teams (e.g. 14-20 members) or no team limits but a deadline like last time (The Drill: Training Camp) when you organize the next tournament as it can be rather frustrating to (spend time and make an effort to) form a team and then to be left out like that! I am sure there are others who think the same way. For clans who have loads of members who want to take part of contests it might not be a problem but for others it sure is.

Cheers,
driv4r, Captain of Random Pro Team
