You have to play against each opponent a best-of-5 series; one opponent per week.
You have to play all your games in the channel #PartyTime.
The host has to set up the cup mode (best-of-five) in the scheme.

The normal Elite-Scheme must be used in every game.
No Rope-Knocking and /rs, ts etc. mode allowed!
No maps from mappacks allowed, only new maps made then and there with the editor.

reporting, ranking & complaints

Like last year, we use the same page. www.eac-wa.com

You will have one opponent per week to play a best-of-five challenge.
Deadline for each round will be Sunday, 20:00 / 08:00 pm GMT..
Organize a date with your opponent as fast as possible to get the games done. Use any client like msn, icq, mIRC, WormNet or pm your opponent with a copy to SPW and Random00.
If your games couldn't be played until the deadline, the judges will decide what is going to happen. Also, you can use the (https://www.tus-wa.com/images/groups/ea/flag1290092598.png) - Forums about any problems and / or statements.
You should only play upcoming rounds beforehand if you know that you wouldn't be able to play on the specific week. Therefore you have to contact one of the moderators.

We want a nice active championship and to make this possible, we need all of you to do your best to keep our event fair and active. Please ask yourself honestly whether you are really able to join it and play until the very end. We don't accept any bad excuses and we will do everything we can to make sure there are no such things in the championship as avoiding, not playing in time, etc. The moderator crew will also inspect every player interested in joining and try not to be dissapointed if there is a problem with letting you join this championship.

Why is it that well above 50% of the group of players that have signed up for this cup is completly inactive on WN? ??? I'm a person with the love of nostalgic moments, no doubt about it, but I'm a bit skeptical of the players who are entering this cup. Devilage, Ray, Almog, Mablak, C23, Crash, JohnMcClane, Seba. None of you are showing any activity at all. This is a tournament expanding over 6 months! Are you really up for it?

I'm not trying to be an idiot, but I don't like spending my time looking for/complainting over wormers that can't keep their word on deadlines. I've got a lot of other stuff I'd like to do during summer time, just like everyone else. I'm not pointing any fingers, I'm just concerned that we've got this many applications of people who haven't been active on worms for such a long period of time. I know that SPW is doing a good job making sure that every person who signs up is ready to play this cup. I'm not really convinced though, some players are just too inactive. I don't care if you've played this game competively for so and so long, you are inactive and you're not in a special position to join the cup. Why are you joining this cup? That's what I'm asking of

Post by: Ray on May 17, 2013, 12:32 PM
Crazy, this tournament is within the realms of a closed group, a very special and selected group of people I'd say, whom each and every one I'd trust to the fullest that they are going to play their games when entering such a special tournament.

This has nothing to do with how active you are on WN, besides, how do you measure my activity? Amount of TUS games played? Even if I was active, I would refuse to play under such shitty stupid rules like Classic League is running at the moment, not to mention TEL is disabled and every other league is a joke.

All my good friends are inactive so I don't really play anymore either, but this tournament is the chance to play with all those great great people and friends again. I really don't see your problem buddy.

I wanna watch Mablak, franz, Crash matches, not just Crazy vs Husk games. Did you actually read the entry message? :D

Also in playoffs Mablak always shows good activity (both NNN and  TUS) so you shouldn't include him in your fear list.
Title: Re: EAC 2013 - Announcement
Post by: SPW on May 17, 2013, 03:57 PM
I understand you, Crazy. But dont worry about it. For me it is the same since I'm not active in last month. This event is like a bookmark. You think about it and you only join if you are really have time for it, even when its half a year running. And these days pros looking for some good opoonents, by checking tus activity in general you see that most of the pros are inactive. There is no challenge when going frequently on tus to play some league games. And the current season is just a joke for almost every oldsqler.

EAC will running good. Guys like Mablak, Ray etc. wont cause problems. We arent 16 anymore and all knowing about the consequences. We are ea, we are a family. We dont want making other members sad.

But sure, some risks are always there. But nothing is 100 %. This championship will going good but I will have a lot of work to push some matchups, like 2012 and the year before. But thats normal when doing something with many people involved.

If someone isnt sure about activity he has to go off. That happens with Dub-c and I'm very happy he was so honest in deciding this. So I except that everyone is honest enough to make sure he will play the whole event. Like I said, we arent teenager anymore. Also Husk was thinking clear about it and dont risk a join in this year. All of you having enough time until it starts.

Post by: JohnMcClane on May 17, 2013, 09:30 PM
its a good point crazy, but...

Inactive or not, thats the best elite players @ earth and the eac is the best elite tournament ever.
The best tournament earnt the best players in the world (I dont mean me), thats my opinion.

Yeah.

I log into WN once a week and search "elite anyone" for 5-10 mins. usually I find no one and go do something else. It's not that im inactive cuz I dont have the time, but because I dont find intereset in tus anymore - same interest I always find in elites & eac in particular

hi mir, I'll talk with Random00 about it. Its easier to get in again, at least it dont takes that much time (no poll).

After that, you can ask for the signups again, including your name at the end. So that first request get void.

But just to get it out of my brain. Are you sure you can play the whole championship? Dont forget, it runs for almost half a year! You dont get a yes if we arent sure about your stay.

Believe me, its not like we dont want you. Until you get the answer about your rejoin you can think about it.

A poll is running about you and it will end in some days. Its more about your seat at EAC and not for ea only. Just hang on a little bit. I just can tell its a close race and you should prepare yourself for both ways. Democracy will have the last word.
