The rules were originally set to 4 rounds, the poll is to change it back to 5 (and hasn't ended yet).
>Just the way the poll is worded

Ah yes. The whole "Should it be reduced to 4" made me a little confused...
Either way only 14 of the 23 teams signed up so far (signed up meaning has a captain I guess, as that seems to be how the votes are being handled) have a post in the Team Information thread, and they're all spread out over several pages and it's annoying to find. I'm assuming a thread that has all the teams with rosters and stuff in one place (preferable the OP) will be set up on Wednesday?

I agree. We must have a post with all the teams with their full roster etc.
Ok,since the deadline is today,when will the NC groups be ready?
And,another one:Some teams(our team too)have a numbered bannerpack(made by themselves).So can we use that bannerpack in the NC or we must use Tommy's?Make no mistake banners in our numbered pack are same as Tommy's(so all credits go to him)i just added numbers from 1-15 for our members to choose.
Either way all NC banners look great,but i just want to clarify what we can or can't use

If you can't field 8 out 16 players on the weekend then you just need a new team.Broomstick said:

Well, of course I can field 8 guys.. but because some of them have to change schedules to make it etc, it's just inconvenient.
Just wondering about the allowance for matches to be shorter. Could that not be a problem, where round difference is potentially a significant factor? I understand that 20 rounds can be forced but where they're not, it's likely the losing team will have an advantage over a team that loses in a 20 round match.

Russia/Turkey v.s. North American teams will be held on either a Parisian or a UK server, depending on which gives the most even/best pings to both. In the case of Russia/Turkey v.s. South American teams however, the teams in question will have to test which servers would be viable, however I'd imagine it will have to be EU servers.

As with matches between Russia/Turkey and North America, a home/away system is hardly appropriate, so the best possible middle-ground will have to be found.

At the moment, the information in this sub-forum is laid out in a way for my best personal convenience. This will be changed however.

No one has to use the banner-pack.

Nope. As soon as the team submission deadline has passed, adding new players counts as a substitution.

Play-offs rather than round difference is being used, as mentioned somewhere previously in this thread.
Will there be a system to avoid best teams to be confronted together directly and risk unlucky elimination?
We can base ourselves upon last Nations Cup to make group stage at equal levels.
I mean we should avoid to have Poland-France-Turkey-USA fighting together in group A, and Switzerland Gambia and Uruguay in group B.
This shouldnt be put too far otherwise it would be unfair for good teams who performed badly last year, but at least taken a bit in account.

Tell me, what is the tactical purpose of this great portion of the NC deemed competitive map pool.
It seems like some of these "competitive" maps are ridiculously one-side, camp friendly, not-well-thought-out maps.
inorite. Should really get rid of Port Assault, Village, Ruined Fort and Snowy Village.Mr.X said:

To limit the movement of cavalry a little and make fighting in the streets more viable.
Nobody is claiming the ENL maps are perfect, but neither are the normal native maps. In fact I'd go so far as to say that in general the ENL maps are better for competitive play than the ones that come in the box.

Agreed.
Except for Ruined Fort. Cause that one's pretty balanced. Everyone just hates it.
Oh, Mr.X seems uncomfortable with the new maps, which everyone else had lots of time to play on, while he didn't. I guess he's here to do some nitpicking then.
