Where is it going to be held?
Free choice of lobby.
What are the prizes?
1st place and champion: $50 More prizes probably on their way!
Am I forced to play with "Random Army"?
No, you are not, but you are allowed to.
How will these 16 ranks be seeded?
It will go like this: Rank 1 vs rank 16, rank 2 vs rank 15, rank 3 vs rank 14, etc.
Moreover, this will be seeded one more time over 4 pools. To clarify see the image below.
No, to avoid any confusion you need to play with your GameReplays account name.
Do I have to use GenTool during the WS? (What is GenTool?)
Yes, you do and there will be no exception tolerated. Post your problem with this program as soon as possible in the Technical Support Forums or contact xezon.
What will happen if the game ends in a disconnect, crash or mismatch?
Get back into the lobby as quickly as possible and arrange that one of the organizers gets the replay the quickest way. It will be then decided, if the game got won or if it needs to be played again.
What do I need to do, if the game lags annoyingly hard?
We appeal here on common sense of any competitor. Don't make it more complicated as it already is: leave the game and try it again.
Do I need to save any replays?
Yes, we really please you to save your played games and to post them in the Replay System. Replay-titles will be renamed, probably.
If I'm not taking part in the WS, how can I track the course?
Therefore, a specific topic will be portalized. So, all replays will be available to download. Moreover, an image of the current standings will be available to be retrieved.
Who are my contacts in case of any organization problems/questions?
Finals on 23rd? If I make it that far I don't think I'll be available that day. Friday 21st I'm having my business christmas drink and on Saturday 22nd I'm having the Rugby christmas drink aswell. So Sunday will be terrible.
