Clanbase Nations Cup V

Posted by Ripper at 09:28 7/10/2003.

The latest Clanbase Nations Cup has been announced and like every other campaign, the Team Captain selection process has began. Here's the details if you're interested in being the captain of Team UK:

National captains:
Starting today, anyone who wants to become his/her country's national captain for one of the Nations Cups can apply for that job by doing the following:
  • Make sure you have substantial support from your country's top clans and top players.
  • Mail the supervisor of your Nations Cup (use the email(s) linked below the menu on each cup page!) with the following information:
  • The subject must be "NC5: [country] captain", e.g. "NC5: Dutch captain"
  • Start the email with your nickname, your clanname, your pid and your hid (the numbers on your player profile) on ClanBase.
  • If your country has shaky internet connections: provide details of international online matches recently played by your local players/clans to demonstrate that you can field a competitive national team.
  • If you only want to be captain if there are no other candidates (to make sure your country gets to participate), say so right away.
  • No individual or organisation can appoint him/her/itself, and last season's captains have to apply again, so everyone who wants to be captain has to apply. The deadline for applying is Tuesday 14th October, so decide fast.

Like every other season, no doubt the UK will have 4 times as many applicants as any other country. I overheard Rhyzz talking about applying for captaincy yet again at the weekend so let's hope he can finally succeed after losing out last season.

After experiencing captaincy last season it wouldn't surprise me if clans follow 4K and not allow their players to compete. With the Europcup and Opencup taking place at the same time clans will be pushed for time if their players are subjected to national duty, but good luck to all the potential captains anyway.

Darren, I really believe you have as much right to apply as anyone.

However when your clan history reads:

Previous clans: erm first serious clan was ndclan, recent clans include elemental and gotgame.

I think getting the UK's top clans to back you is going to be harder than GaZ!!!! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

DArren is by far the best manager / orga / Team-UK captain.

Ive known him a while, through cs, and he has been the manager of a couple of clans Ive been in, although the clans may not have been top, daz always managed to get us top sponsors, good pcw's the works.

Id also like to say that Darren has been to finland / sweden and lanned with top players etc, so he definatly has experience!

When it states international votes are important, isnt that international UK teams, ie CPL teams and EC teams etc?

If u stand with Styla you've won cos of his aoL (YES f***ING A O L) rep, simple as that.

Like when me and myers *high-five* beat DK, was due to our "4K Rep", even tho we deny that to p*** DK off.

But we still got futher than TheGenius x2 & Ripper+Obi captains, so not bad for bottle washers.

Yes you guys were in charge of the team that got the furthest.

You didnt actually play, arrange tactics or such though chris0 and the lads should have dicked sweden.

So you can look at ti 2 ways:

1. You did well and got the furthest of all the previous captains.

2. It was our year, and best chance of winning and you two f***ed it up and got us knocked out in the quarters!

That statement is so stupid Myers, even for you.

You really think that the different squads/maps/player form/teamplay has no bearing on your chances. CS is like any other team competitive activity. You have times when even the underdog has their chance, if they take it or not is another thing!

That was definately our best chance of winning NC! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
