Who designed the team logos? I like the style.

Elsse did. I just made the header/sub-headers to save him time.

All threads should now be up. If anyone spots any mistakes just let me know. I think I got them all now.

If anyone is interested in specifically helping keep the threads updated with signups, etc. Then hit me up on Steam.

I already have a fair sized team but the more the merrier.

this year could be interesting. Some nations got really promising players this year

Also for servers so far I've acquired 3 German ones thanks to Lindblom. We will need a couple more German ones and of course some French. I'd also like a third location for if FRA v GER happens potentially somewhere like the UK so it's a balanced ground.

What's up with that idea of having only one team per  nation? Me and my friends wanted to make a team of lesser known but GOOD players so we can all have a chance to compete in a higher league tournament. With only 1 team per nation rule, obviously the captain will pick players that he had played with before. Why would anybody pick a player that he only heard of even if he is really good, obviously you want to maximize the teamplay and nobody will risk taking a player he doesnt know over somebody he knows. " The NWWC was designed to bring players together, especially the best of them to compete. Sort of like the randomised tournaments we want to invite people to play with players they may not usually play with" - stop behaving like some primary school teacher trying to socialize the kids lmao. And just like in the randomised tournaments You mentioned, the lesser known players will be pushed to the side. I really don't understand the explanation for it, it's non logical and the bonding you mentioned will not happen, only the same old players will be playing with the same captains.

First off you should be banned permanently for NWWC for cheating not once but TWICE. And don't talk to me about crying and tier2/3 teams when every year ukraine begs to make CIS team and other bs slavic formations too afraid to play with their own guys.

Besides it's not about my ability or your teams ability to win its the fact anybody really expects anything other than a Eng vs Fra boring final again. But I'm going to play now just to beat Ukraine dog team.

Having 1 team per nation is a way better idea. If you can't put aside your differences then honestly thats tough luck.

[Komar]

Who said anything about some bad blood between players? All this rule does is not letting many players participate and making this tournament more elitist and predictable.

It says our reasoning on the OP;

'This year we will be only allowing one team per nation. Why, might you ask? The NWWC was designed to bring players together, especially the best of them to compete. Sort of like the randomised tournaments we want to invite people to play with players they may not usually play with in order to get the best chance of winning. The only other major change is that this year we will be trying to pick up on cheating, taking on from what Tardet once did in native. The hosts will decide if any signed up players are 'suspicious' and any marked players will need to record ALL of their matches or they will not be allowed to partake.'

This is how it has been every year apart from last year. It was discussed with all the organisers prior to this.
