The last 24 hours have lit up the CC Club world. We now have several countries involved and we're doing this!!

We have decided this will be a team event only, so no 1v1 or poly games will take place. It's a tournament style open to all members. All settings with the exception of "no reinforcements" will be implemented.

So we can be 100% certain which is the number 1 country, if a team feels a certain game was lost due to dice alone and posts dice stats in game chat, all country captains along with groovy and myself will review that game and if it's determined by majority vote that the game was won by ridiculous dice and not superior strategy, it will be remade. I refer you all to this game as a reference to what I mean:
https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=17860910


Due to the number of players in the USA, we have made a decision to potentially allow players living in the states to join the country of their birth if they wish. This is an attempt to even things out for countries that have a lower CC Club population and an effort to have as many countries represented as possible. If necessary, we will do the same for both Canada and the UK.
This proposal causes us some concern, but we'd love to hear how you feel about it, either way.

Thanks all for your interest in this event! We will be working on getting the structure finalized and officially making this a tourney. with help from mad777 and more have offered to assist us in this world war !!

team united nations will be made up with players who wish to join in the fun but are limited do to number of players in there region

groovy and zeus

Interested.

Denmark.

Presently I have way too many games going, so Id hope for a few weeks before anything actually comes of it?

Before this, I might be able to swing participating. - Captain is iffy.

Its a notion to hand the captainship to the highest ranked player of any nation. - If declined handing it to the player next on the list. Then the captain chooses the team?

Takes a bit of work writing to a number of top players, but probably less work than qualifiers?

The team from Japan is mostly in - rousseau72, josko.ri, dualta, and jcmagno. They would like to confirm based on start dates and game load though.

Similar sort of thing to having UK divided into England, Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland.

yeah, that might work. i was just going to suggest more than one entry per country - like they do in bobsled events, for example : USA1, 2, 3 & 4 maybe? not sure how many teams per country/region you guys were thinking about having.

I will play, on two conditions:
  • As long as the game load is not outrageous, and
  • as long as I can just show up and play my turns and nobody looks to me for any kind of leadership.

There used to be a tab on the scoreboard that showed you players listed by country but I can't find it anymore. Has it gone or am I being daft? I need to find some more Macanese.

Once you clicked on scoreboard, choose the tab " full score leaderboard" then you access the previous scoreboard, the one you knew. And then you can choose the country.

Don't worry. China is still your sovereign state and if there aren't enough Chinese to fill a team, joining another Asian team or the United Nations team would be great, if that's cool with you. :-)
