Are you shitting me? 2 pm in the afternoon? You seriously want us to skip work and get unenmployed or something, So basically we need to have a full team of 16 always ready at a whim of CCP/UF, you do realize we needed to register alot of players for that or that some or all of us have jobs and whatnot? Who the hell is picking these times is beyond me.

It's showing up as the scheduled 8:30pm here. It might be that the site takes your profile TZ into account for all times, and as such might be showing it for a different timezone. All EU matches should be given in GMT(+0) and all NA in CST (-5)

And besides, i have tripled checked my profile, its GMT 0, Also, we cant register some of our guys, apart from the gimmick of having to register to enrich Urgentfury database we shoulndt be disqualified for having players who are not registered on UF but belong to the corp from ages. Its an unfair rule and just shows how badly this was thought out.

My understanding is signups are closed, and everyone has til the 6th to edit their rosters until everything is locked. pretty standard for tournaments. sign ups by date X, then a few more days to get everyone situated, then the carnage begins!

Battle started at 30 minutes before advertised, at 20:00 GMT instead of 20:30 GMT. Then we had ANOTHER battle 10 minutes after the first one finished, when half the people on our team had already left after the disaster from the first one. ????? A CCP event not working as intended? What a big surprise. We will play for the laughs now, don't expect us to take anything CCP organizes seriously anymore. Even tho the servers were jacked and obviously more fail involved, please realize these matches are best 2 of 3. So I would assume 10m downtime or 5m or something then match 2 beginas etc. These are not single matches....but best of 3.....every night

Its an unfair rule and just shows how badly this was thought out. Actually this is a common occurence in 3rd party tournaments. This prevents ringers and such, and while I agree the system is no streamlined, having each person sign up on a site is quite common. Im disappointed in the pure lack of infromation provided, and the difficulty in entering battles. Subesequently, entering the barge with 1 minute to go, and the matches following faction warfare rules rather than PC rules was a big letdown. The poor payout, no salvage and most of all no friendly fire is going to cause some major issues as this tournament progresses. Bottom line everyone in the corp should see the match. If there is a 'ringer' issue, meaning someone not on their roster on the UF site is in the match, then its up to the other team to send a ticket on UF with the proof to handle it tnat way. This is how all 3rd party tournaments have always been. And start time is 2130 eve time for EU and 0130 Eve time for NA. This was stated on day 1. Eu players I feel for you as matches starting 30m early is just not acceptable. Honestly for eu id say matches should all be rescheduled for the last week. The na tourney runs much longer so why not?
