REGISTRATION INFORMATION for GGCII

[Edward@Sega]

Hello, GUARDIANS!

Hope everyone is having Happy Holidays. It's time to start securing your time for the GGC2!

A few things, first: Xbox 360 almost has a full roster of teams, so, looking good there! The tournament will officially start on January 8th.

PC/PS2 obviously has a ways to go. I'm still deciding how we'll handle this. If we have to scale back the tournament, we will -- I will find a way to a) make sure the teams who register get a chance to compete, regardless of the scale -- and b) give out prizes to those who do compete. We still have a little over a week for registration so let's see what we can do

REGISTRATION INFORMATION:

Tournament starts January 8th. The date has been pushed back slightly to allow the Xbox 360 side to fill to 32 teams and to give us a chance to set the matchups and post brackets. Starting on January 8th, all weekdays from 12:00 Noon (PST) until 7:00 PM (PST) are available for racing, in half hour blocks.

We understand that scheduling can be difficult. Please make every available effort to race during one of the above times. If your team absolutely cannot race at one of the below listed times, please let one of the below player mods or myself know, and we will make every effort to schedule at a different time. However, availability during other times is limited and cannot always be guaranteed.

Our dedicated Player Mods will be handling registration information. Please send a PM to the following moderators, and be sure to include all the information listed below:

Corrected mistake in the posted dates just now. Tourney starts on January 8th (which is the earliest date you can sign up for).

very nice!

So we have to book a time before we know who our opponents are?

wouldn't matter much only if the official race time for both teams in a matchup are disclosed at the same time after both teams have finished their runs, up to the GMs on how they will present this tho.

I think it's important that people know ahead of time who they're facing, with adequate practise time between the announcement and the run.

I must admit it's nice to see such flexibility in times. Greatly appreciated Edward and hopefully we can keep it up.

Understood, but you aren't practicing to face a specific opponent. And to make scheduling easier we aren't insisting that teams run at the same time; to that end (as I mentioned) we'll be having opponents run the same map iteration.

We'll have matchups for the 360 up next week, as early as possible
