ClanBase have made some changes regarding the size of the regional qualifiers for their Fall 2002 CS Open Cup:"Due to the large amount of signups from Southern region, Eastern Europe and the rather small number of UK/IE clans, we decided to limit the amount of clans that can qualify from the UK/IE qualifiers to 8. This means only 64 clans will be selected to play in the qualifiers this season."The other regions have been altered as follows:
- 6 clans from the Eastern Qualifier
- 8 clans from the Benelux Qualifier
- 8 clans from the UK and Ireland Qualifier
- 10 clans from the Southern Qualifier
- 16 clans from the Central Qualifier
- 16 clans from the Northern Qualifier

Heh is there another dNC hiding somewhere that is really good in the Eurocup? The one I saw last Eurocup ended up 1-6. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

thent here is the fact that most of the players from ie-s and dnc are on isdn so already have things cut out for them when playing on europian servers [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

I do agree that the scene is full of the younger age groups and this doesnt help the scene since most of the large competitions are abroad and sending smalll children all that way isnt healthy. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Surely there are some clans in div 1 in some of the leagues who could have signed up, maybe even some div 2 ones as well.
Just a pity CBUK was ruined by all the gimmick/joke/anonymous clans a few months ago, so UK clans now ignore CB to a large extent. Even now it's pretty empty, and impossible to get a game. We had 6 games lined up for last week; two there was just no response to the challenge, even in IRC, one was cancelled and the other three rescheduled to be in two months time. Pretty sad really.
Lots of new clans popping up every week with 'big names' in them, they win a few matches then fade away. Blah. It's just a bit sad that places with half the UK population get twice as many signups... [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Surely there are more than 8 competent/capable clans in the UK?
Perhaps clans are scared off by the need to be a 'pro clan' now, and if they don't have the time for that sort of stuff they think they might as well not bother...?
I'm wondering rather than criticising here really, I just can't figure it out. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Better to give the opencup a go and go out fighting than not enter at all... But clans nowadays are just frightened of losing their reputation so they don't play, and just rely on the rep of their players.
Worst really is people moaning about clans rather than just playing - oops

Really only 1 player will be on isdn in the team, meaning we should hopefully have a good run and make lan finals. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Also the Eurocup consists of stable clans that have competed at a high level for a decent time.
Also keep in mind that clanbase likes to have one team from each country.
Last Eurocup wasn't the best preformance from dNC but with Gid - Muzz - Stinky in there shall be some bleeding holes if you catch my drift.... [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

back to school my friend.
Also, the team that drew with Ns on the s***test server in the world was the team before this current one.
You haven't seen the new team play, so please hush before you spout s***. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
