    I heard about this tournament hours after it opened up, and I still managed to get a team together and post on forums after I got home from work. My team was the 8th ones to submit.

    You're telling me that out of a guild as large as Magnum, that nobody saw this thread? I find that hard to believe and it begs the question about magnum's forum presence.

    It's unfortunate that no magnum teams got into the tournament as this would have added to the excitement, however rules are rules. If you scroll through I asked Remiem to extend the tournament to 16 teams from 8, shortly after she did. I don't think anyone expected this many teams, and frankly a 32 team tournament would be ideal if, say, we were all in a giant room. However, the logistics of something like that would be a monstrosity.

    Magnum, if I remember correctly you're the first in the waitlist so I'm sure you'll be in the tournament.

    Best of luck, and please don't knock the mods down. They didn't haven't to throw this event, and we should be grateful. Root for your friends, or just enjoy from the sidelines.

    well u see ..there is such a thing as TIME ZONES. Also some people go OUT after work? i think this was announced like 2-4am asia time, so most are asleep, and next day need to go to work, so by the time people are available online after work, registration was full.

    Stop treating me like a child. I am answering your questions and you immediately go to a new question. I understand you are rattled because you couldnt sign up because of time zones. But deal with it. If this is causing you the end of the world than you need a dam reality check. Period.

    lmfao. FYI im just stating an obvious and you couldn't handle an honest criticism. They said it was announced professionally. No big event company would do this thing without a proper announcement and lee way for registration. I'm just pointing out some things STS needs to consider like time zones etc for their future events to prevent things like this from happening. And trust me , idc if im in tournament or not. I just wanted to point out whats wrong and at least leave this game with my principles intact. My beef isn't with u, it's with the system so please don't make it personal.

    What answers? Everyone knows time zones are a problem, but you have just been trying to troll at this point.

    Its ridiculous and unprofessional.
    There should be a specfic thread designed for sign ups.

    And another dedicated to the qualification tournament which comes before the real tdm tournament. Check out the most serious competition in the world: The champions league. There are qualification matches before the real tourmament starts and tables are set.

    Everybody should have a chance to partecipate not just who loiters on forum 24/24 7/7 365/365.
    I bet there are people ig who don't even know about this tournament.

    Make that rotating banner useful, i highly doubt in the capacity and willingness of players to spread the news around efficiently/fastly (just check out how hard they are trying to hold their posts and not let newcomers in) and would prefer sts to collaborate.

    Get this tournament serious and well made, dont let it be like the last pvp tournament for God's sake and those of the partecipants who arent from top guilds or are left out from the fun.

    This game should be fun and enjoyable. So why not let those other entries in? I thought you want a real and exciting match? Please do consider..

    Dahell i just noticed that thread is locked, i was unsure about pet and i wanna add one more sub. Its hard to organize a team so fast, asking everyones gear/pet, ign and forum name, if no forum account then make fast, waiting till everyone online..

    Registration was opened 9-5-14 @ 1:05pm CDT and was full with 16 entries @ 5:32pm CDT..

    And that 4hours 27mins i bet people are outside? asleep, work,school, party, cousins house? Grandmas house? Friends get together?

    (With the time difference, its TGIF right)?)

    What do u expect?

    Sounds like you're saying STS should have put this up at 6-7 AM in your time zone because kahel was at work. Therefore the mods should arrange their schedule to post in kahel's time zone.

    Also, time zones are not an excuse. The time zones in the world go to +12 all the way to -12. So if mods decide to rearrange their whole schedule just for you, then someone else could make this post.

    The tournament should have been organized in a way nobody would have to make a thread like this.
    I don't blame normal human greediness that leads who is already in to protect their seats cause its what i would do too( though with full knowledge that what i am doing is not completely right) who to blame is sts for the poor organization as always.

    THE QUESTION IS:
    Was this tournament organized to elect the best TdM teams in Arlor or the best forum stalkers?
