Hi, forgive the duplicated message but there's 35 teams now
A Reminder and Update:
January 1st is the date your Captains are decided. I will count all votes on each thread and post the result for each team, both in the threads and in the Stickies. If you wish to count yourself and PM me the Captain, I will use that.... although any later finding of mis-counts will be looked upon sourly...
It might also be advisable to elect a Vice-Captain, or Deputy, in case the Captain has to forfeit his position for any reason.
January: This is the time for the
Captain to
decide his/her final team and
submit it to me Via PM. This will be a list of
12 names including himself who will represent that country in
WoF 2008 , and lay claim to any glory to come. These should not be chosen lightly; the World's Finest await you in heated competition.
The Closing Date for Submission of the Captain's Selection for the Main Team is
Saturday January 26th.
The first Qualifiers (Stage 1) will run on Saturday Feb 2nd and Sunday Feb 3rd.
This Stage, and Stage 2, are against the World, not one-on-one matches. All that is required is to get one of the highest 24 combined (from Stage 1&2)scores from 35 (so far) teams.
Start/Finish Point for
Stage 1 will be
Palms Corner. I'm saying this here so it's not missed as a single mention later on. Expect a launch ceremony of sorts there as well.
Moblist will be 4, Support 2, with a Bonus mob too. Stage 2 will feature all-new mobs. This has been changed from last year's one-hunt qualifier to allow a greater spread of globalling opportunities.
If your team is getting organised and you want to be useful, please pm your preferred time slots from the following, and we'll work out a compromise:
All Times Calypso (MA) Time!
00:00 Saturday Morning
03:30 Saturday Morning
13:00 Saturday
16:30 Saturday
23:00 Saturday Night
09:00 Sunday Morning
12:30 Sunday
On a personal note, the number of
WoF-related globals I see when I come online is heartening, it really is; this Tournament is looking to be amazing. It's especially good to see teams who didn't make it last year spamming the window
The
WoF has grown, with an extra Stage and eight more teams than last year (so far), and the addition of new and tougher mobs, and lessons learned from last year will ensure chaos at times.... be prepared for anything
Good luck to all.
