Howdy CCP,
Any idea when we can get some information on who is IN the tournament and the brackets associated with it?
It's Tuesday which means it is only three days away from first competition and we don't have any basic information.

I understand the last day to sign up is Oct. 25th, but it looks as if more than 16 Corporations have applied. So they should already have a finalized list if going by entry dates, unless they want to pick and choose which corporations get invited into it.
Just looking for basic information about who's in, what the brackets are...

Not targeting you because you might not have the info or authorization to give it to us if you did, but I find this kind of response unacceptable for a tournament to not tell us who's participating til the day before, if not even til the day of.
People still don't know if they've been accepted, and given the times the tournament takes place at, some need to request time off from work, and giving them no advance notice to do so is not cool. |

Completely agree here, but goodluck getting any info sooner. To not tell the teams that are already in yet is kind of dumb... people could be booking off work right now for a tournament there team may not even be in. |

True, Tiel makes a good point. Also can you tell us what map/maps we can be expecting to play on, if you are able to. |

The first 16 CEOs that submit a valid application will be seeded into four groups of four corps each, eligible to participate in the Corporation Skirmish Tournament --> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=41472&find=unread
If you have the 16 first allow to participate, what's the problem to communicate groups and battle's times ?
Well, if you don't have them, I won't say anything more !!! |

Is it not possible that they are trying to limit information so that time negotiating a "flop" is minimized to protect the little integrity that exists in New Eden? Or maybe to make it more challenging? Or to balance the playing field for weaker opponents a little? |

Well i was mainly talking about the weekend part time jobs that most kids have (since this is a video game i take it most people playing are younger). If someone has a real career and job and takes a day off... ya thats pretty funny/stupid lol.

Yep, exactly what I posted above, I don't see the hold up. From the "Who's signed up for tournament" thread, there are easily more than 16 corps applied. It says the first 16.
Not a big deal... Just would be nice to have more than 0 days to know when/who people face in the bracket. Courtesy thing. |

Another reason could be CCP is considering what to do the ringers like the Imperfects! They may be considering whether they need to be banned or not!
Personally I DGAF whether GIC and Hetaroi merges with The Imperfects! Win or loose, my game is certainly gonna improve playing the best of the best on paper!
Reminds me of the Miami Heat situation! |

Right, because people need to be banned for joining a corp, just because there are random people in the community who aren't part of said corp who say it's for a given reason. Can't have people who enjoy playing together actually join a team together, nope, gotta be something fishy going on.
And thanks for looking into it, Unicorn. Much appreciated. I don't think you deserve any of the flak, I just think the silence and then that being the only response we get is less than we deserve. :) |

So you are telling me that GIC and Hetaroi joined The Imperfects just because they like playing with The Imperfects? And you are trying to tell me that its not FTW?
Not trying to be a DB out here and neither disagreeing with the concept of corps merging, but atleast admit the reason for the merge is FTW and you guys will be back to being GIC and Hetaroi after the tournament! No shame in that! To me it just shows the confidence level one has in their own corps!
Again! Its only a speculation! I am in it to learn and make notes! In all honesty, I want to fight your combined powers! Even if I go 0 - 20 I wont care! I just want the experience! |

We have been squading with GIC since before the announcement of the tournament, and I along with a couple of other guys in my corp have been trying to recruit Hetaroi since before they were officially Hetaroi. |

Dude! Seriously! DILLIGAD? Like I said before I am looking forward to it! There is no need to defend the merge before the tourney! Being defensive only make you look guilty!

Lolz! I told my boss this and he said I better win the tourney or he will fire me! And he said if the corp I belong to doesnt win the game, I need to atleast TBag a few doods and show him photographic evidence of me doing so! So now I have to kill someone and take a a picture of me TBagging him when he is down. Dunno how to pull that one off! ROTFLMFAO! |

I see the words but all I can read are excuses for losing a head of time. Nothing that is said in forums can take away what success we can have in tournament.
saying the same **** over and over again wont make it true and only makes you look like a sore loser well ahead of time
merging isn't against the rules. We were on the path to merger anyways but it speed up because the 3 corps all had less then 25 people.
trolls are just lame now and smell of desperattion and fear |

I don't mind them merging, but if they are going to disban after the TT and only merged to win it and that's it , then yeah that is pretty sad.. And as for them winning, i think the winner of this Tournament will have a tuff time winning, i'm sure all the corporations that are in it have different strategies ( i know we do) |
