Looks very good :)

irc?
Also some of my players have " ` " in nickname, but it says: invalid ID

-.-

and:
Couriers may be used for any purpose.

So bottle-abuse is fine?

[Ryn]

Just put a ' instead. And yes, I belive using a bottle on your courier is allowed

[tanKza]

get your teams signed up :) should be a great tourny and 1 of many to come :)

[TheEQ]

When is this tournament? I can't find any details on date.

[Malet]

starting on the 5th of May, and I'll fix the nickname problem

[Aviseras]

Good to see some big EU tourneys up and coming! Definitely outside my US times though, lol.

[RobinEA]

nvm i found out how to apply now, but do we need all 5 regged at the site?

[Ryn]

Register a new team (should be found on the right hand side, next to logout), Then click the hon cup, and their should be a blue button featuring your hon clans name. Then make sure you have 5 members green ticked before the cup starts =]

[FuzzyWuzzy]

Can you fix the login problem?

I registered our team and so on, but logged out and I can't login now...

[Ryn]

Are you using the right email, i'll pm you the email you used to sign up with

[FuzzyWuzzy]

Oo, was trying to log with username.... ^^

[Ryn]

lmao :D

[FuzzyWuzzy]

Anyone care to explain how do I add people on the roster?

The edit roster doesn't seem to have an Add functionality.

Is it invite only like ESL? Coz I don't see a link to invite to clan as well.

they send message add or no and you accept/not

[Ryn]

Link them to the members page and it will say "Apply for roster" or something like that

[Malet]

MobZombie I've added it to the FAQ ( http://ungl.org/p/FAQ )

[RobinEA]

in Edit Unique IDs (http://ungl.org/e/profile) we put our ingame hon nicks right?

[Ryn]

Yeah

[Moxy]

whast the date this tourny is on, i cant find it.

[FuzzyWuzzy]

whast the date this tourny is on, i cant find it.

Wednesday through Friday (5th - 7th)

[Ryn]

If we get 64 teams signed up, we will be doing 2 games a night, wednesday - friday =]

[RobinEA]

advertising will help i guess

[Ryn]

Trying to advertise where ever possible, any help advertising would be appreicated though, as we are a brand new league =]

[Dragnarr]

So hrmmm only those players who registered are allowed to play in the Cup? Might be a good idea to put that in the rules. There are also some obvious things missing from the rule page such as Multiclanning.

[Ryn]

I belive we are only going to allowed one team per game per person, if that makes sence. I think it's a bit odvious that you have to sign up and join a team to play ?

[Malet]

I'll add these things to the rules Dragnarr - we've tried to keep them as concise as possible though since people usually just gloss over the rules if it looks too long to read

[Rawrior]

What time is it in PST timezone?(-7) I suck at converting.

[Ryn]

7pm GTM = 11am PST I think ?

[Malet]

12:00 - 14:00 PST I think

[Ryn]

So I think the cup will be between 7pm - 9pm GTM

[RobinEA]

that works

[tanKza]

Remember to get your teams registered and green ticked before the event to avoid disappointment :)

[GameGuy]

Sounds good. Good luck on the battlefield soldiers!

[BASH]

I made a post on the german forums to get more teams to participate in this tournament.

[Ryn]

Why thank you =]

[Tyranosourus]

Hey well question. Im in PST and I don't think our team can start playing till around 12ish. Would that be a problem or is that okay?

[Ryn]

PST wise I think we are starting at 12 and finishing at 2 for all three days, but remember it will be on EU servers, which properly won't be a problem

[Moxy]

is it me or is your site down atm?

Edit: nvm i can get to the site now.

[Ryn]
