14. PULK KIRASJEROW


Shortly after the first announcement concerning the CCL, and the release of the trailer, a potential issue has been brought to the admin team's attention concerning the list of the invited regiments. The 14pk, lead by Zahari, had been reforming and were looking to participate in the competition. Their invitation has been subject to discussion among the community for weeks now and for an equal time between the CCL admins.

We considered every option available to us and carefully weighted our decision by being constantly in touch with the people relevant to this issue.

When deciding which regiments were going to be invited to the CCL some months ago, the 14pk case was obviously discussed. We knew the regiment was inactive since the last CNWL so we tried to contact them in order to clarify wherever or not they would be interested to partake in a competition such as the CCL. On two occasions, we got answered that the 14pk was not interested in this league. Looking back at this and after having discussed with several other people, we understand that there might have been some miscommunications between some members of the 14pk; but given the lack of interested shown at the time, we figured their decision was final and started looking for other potential candidates.

With that being said, even if the 14pk had confirmed their interest before we confirm our eight invited regiments, there was another aspect in their participation which didn't necessarily fit the requirements for the CCL.

The Cavalry Champions League has been hosted to provide the cavalry community with a competitive and serious environment in which active regiments can fight each other. It is important for us that the term 'cavalry community' is clearly defined here because, in the eyes of the CCL administration, a regiment which doesn't play the game between major competition, doesn't get its members involved in smaller - but essential from a community perspective - contests and generally doesn't contribute to keeping the cavalry scene active and healthy, isn't necessarily a worthy candidate for the CCL ; and this no matter its past achievements and potential skill.


Taken from the CCL Child-board Application
Quote
- Are there any criteria(s) for entering in this event?  Yes/No; if yes, list them in order for us to verify they are in line with the rules. Yes.

Regiments must be capable of lasting for the whole duration of the event (14 weeks). We are looking for regiments who have already made their proofs in past cavalry events and shown themselves respectful of the rules. Regiments must be a full-part of the cavalry community in the sense that they cannot form for the sole purpose of playing this competition.
[close]

We want to be clear on the fact that this doesn't lower in any way the 14pk's performance during the last CNWL nor the respect we have for the regiment as a whole.

We understand that this decision might not be shared by everyone but we insist that the CCL administration has its heart set on keeping the interest of the tournament participants, and more generally, of the cavalry community, above any other considerations.

RULES


The rules have been posted and can be checked here. We would like to remind the regimental leader that it is their responsibility to check the rules and on a regular basis and make sure they are aware of any changes.

REFEREES


The current applications have all been dealt with. Official referees can now be found here. We would also like to remind the participants that tournament administrators are also available if you cannot find a single referee for your matches.

Referees themselves have been divided into two categories, the senior and the junior referees. Senior referees can take a match on their own. Junior referees are meant to assist the senior referees in their task and learn the role at the same time.

We ask the regimental leaders to try and look for a senior referee while organizing their official matches. Rules will be edited accordingly to reflect this requirement.

SERVERS & SCRIPTS


We have been donated five servers for this CCL, thanks to Lindblom from the 11e. All these servers are located in Strasbourg as this was the most central location we had available to us in Europe and we believe this should provide the participants with the fairest experience. Edit: Since the Strasbourg servers were unavailable, we had to go for other locations. Due to the CCL tournament providing now, not only one but two different locations for your matches, we'll have to update the rule-set to reflect this change and avoid any potential dispute over server choice for official matches.

The CCL servers are using a script made by another member of our staff, Wüstenkreiger, which should provide more security when it comes to ID checkings, before and after matches. In order to be able to play on these servers, you have to be using the correct ID and the correct regimental tag as listed there. Huge thanks to Wüstenkreiger for making this!

Any other information about the servers, such as bookings, can be found on this thread.

Edit: There was a mistake in the announcement about the location(s) of the servers; which has been edited. Please do re-read the announcement again to make sure you are currently aware of the current situation.

SPECTATORS


Yesterday, in the opening match of the CCL, we saw an unusual amount of spectators on the server. This was mostly due to the match being played on a date where no other regiment had their own event, leading up to a high amount of people willing to watch the game. While we understand the interest there can be in watching the CCL games, this cannot be to the detriment of the players and their performances on these servers.

We would like to remind every participant of the following rules:

§ 14 Spectators


Quote
(1) Spectators from both regiments are always allowed.
(2) External spectators--that is, players that do not belong to either regiment--have to ask for permission from both captains to spectate the match and the referee must be aware of it. Should an external spectator join with the tag of either regiment trying to appear as one of their players, he will be suspended for one official match given he is playing in the tournament.

Yesterday, several players broke these rules. We will not be taking actions but we insist that every player willing to watch an official game has to ask the permissions to both regimental leaders. In the scenario of these spectators having asked the permission but being too many, they have to be ready to leave the server at any point upon the request of one or both regimental leader(s).

We will also be changing that rule:


Quote
(3) Tournament administrators and referees do not need permission to spectate a game.

From now and due to the high amount of official referees, only the person listed as the official referee, plus one or two potential junior referees of his choice, are allowed to spectate the match without permission. Other referees are subject to the same rules as regular players and must ask the permissions to regimental leaders.
Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often.

16E/KGL


A few weeks ago, was made to the administration the request for the members of the KGL, playing under the ranks of the 16e Régiment de Hussards, to be capable of displaying their regimental tag during official matches of the CCL.

After discussions among ourselves, we came to the conclusion that the 16e/KGL alliance is already a fact rather established by the CCL participants. The KGL came with large numbers to help the 16e, and both regiments are supporting each other in order to play this league. For that reason, and because of the 16e/KGL having shown good sportsmanship, good attitude and bring an overall positive atmosphere to the competition, we see no reason to deny the KGL the opportunity to display their regimental tag during official CCL match.

Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often.

WALL HUGGING / FORCING THE WHOLE FIGHT NEAR THE MAP BORDERS


We would like to remind our participants of the following rule:

Quote
(2) Wall-hugging or tree-hugging is not permitted. Playing with the wall or the tree (i.e. gaining an advantage in playing close to the wall/tree by leaving only a small space between players and the wall/tree) is not allowed either. The decent space to not be considered 'wall-hugging / tree hugging' or 'playing with the wall/tree' is left at the appreciation of the referee.


From that day on, we'll be way more strict in the application of that rule, in order to make sure that matches are played within a respectable time-lapse and are enjoyable for both parties. The referee decision on wherever or not an entire regiment is using the wall/map borders to their advantage will be final. If the referee requests a regiment to leave the map borders/angles and play more in the centre, both regiments have to follow that demand instantly and their whole formation cannot go back to said map borders/angles. At the third warning for the same behaviour, the regiment at fault will have to forfeit the round.

We would also like to remind everyone that while we insist that both behaviours are reprehensible as they fall under a refusal to play, one or several people wall-hugging and one regiment forcing the whole fight close to the map borders are two very distinct things. In order to make sure rules are understood and followed appropriately, it seemed important for the administration to clarify that point.


Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often.

TRANSFER PERIOD


Recently, a fair amount of people reached us to ask about a potential transfer period during the week break. We felt the need to clarify the situation to make sure people have all the insights possible before taking any decisions. There will be no transfer period during the CCL. We already discussed it among ourselves prior to the start of the competition and we figured out it was the best decision to take to ensure stability for the regiment partaking in the league.

As direct consequences and with respect to the rules established for the CCL, players who have been attending an official match and played at least one round with a regiment are considered as part of this regiment's roster for the full competition. If they happen to leave said regiment, they cannot be added to another regiment's roster for this competition.

Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often.

Exceptional Decision


     We have consulted tonight the representatives of the regiments, after having heard everyone's opinion, the vast majority agrees with the following decision: the 1erRC and the 4e will have the duration of the CCL to organize their game in hand.
     We ask everyone to do his job to organize his match. The objective of the CCL is to be a competitive event for the cavalry community, all in a good atmosphere.
     Rules will probably be added to avoid the repetition of this kind of situation.

END OF THE CAVALRY CHAMPIONS LEAGUE


Regarding the recent departure of one of the eight regiments partaking in the Cavalry Champions League,
Regarding recent changes amongst the organizing staff of the Cavalry Champions League,
It has been commonly decided that the event would end sooner than it was first announced,
Indeed, in order to ensure that all regiments have played against one another in the competition, but finding ourselves unable to continue for a much longer time, we chose to end the CCL after the "home match" stage of the competition, meaning there won't be rematches between regiments, which would add an extra 6 or 7 weeks to the whole thing.
Regiments will keep playing their remaining matches in the weeks to come, with the same format as before (one match per week), until all 6 of their matches are played (one to three matches remain per regiment). The league table once all regiments have played their 6 matches will represent the final table of the competition, giving us a League winner and a position for each participant.
In the meantime, Media content will continue to be given to all interested. However, the Betting Corner will be closed due to a lack of manpower to manage it properly.

We wish to remind to all that this is a decision that has been taken by the administration staff as a whole, not by an individual acting or deciding on his own.
We also want to thank you for understanding, and assure you that we will keep working during the remaining weeks to offer everyone a proper and interesting end to this tournament, which has overall been a great success, success that we are saddened to have to end sooner than first planned.

11e HUSSARDS PLAYERS SITUATION


Following the disband of the 11e Régiment de Hussards, leading them to leave the CCL, a number of players find themselves without a regiment to play for in the competition, or have already joined one, and now wonder if they will be allowed to play for their new regiment.

Regarding the former announcement, stating that the CCL will end sooner than planned, with only a couple of matches left for all regiments, it has been decided by the administration staff that former 11e players would not be allowed to play for any regiment involved in the CCL, until the end of the competition. If they wish to, they are allowed to spectate matches of their newly joined regiments as official members, but won't be allowed to spawn in and fight during the match.
