As a witless technofobe signing into yet another website is indeed a strain on my brain. I suppose this stuff is very easy for "the kids of our age" but for an old man like me, its pure hell.
So I go to the designated site and register myself, KingBabar, and so far soo good. Then I proceed to "Signups" it says:
Team ID missing.
In order to register for this league, you must first register a team that your team mates then have to join. When the team has become large enough, you can register your team for this league.
OK so I go to "Team" and "8on8 (LOL) squad cup EU", I then press the first link named: "Annaouncing the squad cup", which puts me through and it says "EU signups - signup now" - only to be put back to the above mentioned "Team ID missing".
Can someone please tell me what I'm supposed to do?
Is it possible to sign up in some other less complicated way? Can I simply send an email to someone or something?

Do you have a team? Are You supposed to be the one that sign up the team or there is another one that is doing that. Because first of all you have to create the team. Than you have to make the players join the team, then you all have to Add your dust names. Then i think you can sign up. I m having some problems too |

I have tried all sorts off things, I didn't exactly find a "team sign up here" bar or anythuing like that.
Will this mean that I first have to sign up a team (God knows where) and then the 9 other dudes on my team have to get onto that site, register themselves and then register their place in the team and then I have to sign us all up after that?
And this all within 2 days from now? So if my dudes aren't online and don't receive my message in time we can't join the tourney?
Its all too complicated and certainly very confusing.
Can a DEV get in here and clear things up for me? |

- Did not find where to sign up the team.
- Getting the 9 other dudes to register in 2 days might be impossible.
- So they have to go on twice? First to register and then to accept?
Why so damned complicated????
This might lead us to not play in this tournament, I don't see how its possible to get all this done in 2 days, seing that most dudes aren't on every single day...
And on top of all I have to get a skype account aswell?
Why do I have to sign up on 2 different sites just to partake in a Dust tournament? |

At the top of the screen there's a button that says Teams. Click that and you can start a new team. Once you've set up a team, send the other guys a link to the team page and they can click to join it. Once they've all joined the team and entered their DUST character names, then you can sign up.
If you've still having trouble, put in a ticket on the ESL website and they'll help you out.
On a side note, we are considering extending the signup period for those people that have had difficulty in signing their team up. If that's the case, we'll announce that tomorrow.

I actually found the "team" bar and has made a team.
And you PC guys need to realise that this is a console game. How am I supposed to send the link to my team mates?
I can do it by typing it all in and send it via a corp mail. But this is not a good lasting sollution, there is no copy/paste function going from my laptop to my PS3... |

Its not about being a moron, its about not being used to handle anything more complicated than Nettflix or the Dust fourms. I don't have a private email, no facebook, no twitter, I'd rather stick with gaming and I try to avoid PCs as much as possible.
This "ESL" site is filled up with so much clutter and commercials it is straining my eyes to even look at it. Why do we need this complicated format for signups?

Had something similar with a different site a couple of years ago.
-create account on the website
-put your dust char name on your account
-create your team
-invite the people that you want in your team from that website
-the people which you invited must aswell sign up on the site
-once your team has 10 people max. you can join the squad cup on the site and pick which region
And thats basically it. And to make it clear: every member from the team MUST sign up onto that site. You cant just write the names from your team down and thats it (that would be too easy lol). |

All players have to do is make an account on there, add their Dust character name through the settings ("add gameaccount" or something like that), and then join your team with a password.
After that you can sign your team up for the region you want to enter.
Edit: Like you, I have to say I'm not a fan of doing it this way (although I'm sure it's much easier to handle this time instead of that UF failure). It would be much easier for one guy to just send in their team roster to CCP (or some thirdparty organiser, if that's the case), or in the case of a corp/alliance tourney in the future to just sign their corp/alliance up. That could even be done via an ingame mail to a certain (CCP) character. |

As this isnt a corp/alliance based cup, I made it so the participating members had the sign up
For corp/alliance tournaments I will have it so only the CEO/director has to create a team and all corp members are instantly eligible to play the matches |

Why can't I sign my roster up at that site? Why do we need to go through all this?
If every member were online every single day, sure no problem, but what if I have members that knows about the cup, have signed up for it internally, but they don't log on for a week making them and perhaps the entire team missing the cup?
It just seems to me that its complicated just for the sole role of being complicated.
But then again, I don't know much about this sort of thing... |
