To be clear: we're trying the game mode. There will be a small invitational tournament. The teams will be dependent on activity, it's not decided fully yet, if you're really interested speak to me and we'll sort it out. In the meantime there will be servers up soon.
We've had mixed response from national teams. People that have tried it have generally been positive. We won't be basing using the mod on whether 51% say yes or no, and definitely won't be making a decision against the game mode no matter how much you complain at the moment, but instead after the test, so save your breath for then and also just try it lol.
There will be a sub forum up shortly, with a thread specifically for the game mode (and a clearer explanation). We can discuss this there.
