ClanBase Nations Cup Announced

Posted by Rob at 11:22 12/10/2002.

ClanBase have announced the third Nations Cup tournament to take place. One of the chosen games is, of course, Counter-Strike. But get this - not only will there be a Counter-Strike Nations Cup for the lads, there'll be one for the ladies. This Cup will be run by female admins and supervisors, being the first national cup event of its kind. Here's some information:
  • Only low ping countries can participate; slaughtering modemers isn't fun for anyone. Ex-pats can't form national teams for their home countries.
  • As is the case before every NC season, all national captains will be appointed anew by ClanBase. Last season's captains are of course welcome to apply again. All candidates will have to contact the supervisor and list the top clans that support his or her candidacy. This procedure will begin when the cup pages are up and will be explained in more detail then. Candidates can already start gathering support from their country's top clans though.
  • Each Nation Cup will have exactly 8, 12 or 16 countries competing, depending on the size of the scene. Where necessary qualifying matches will be played to reduce the number of national teams to 8, 12 or 16. These qualifying matches will be played in the 1st half of November.
  • The actual season begins in the 2nd half of November. All group matches are played before the Xmas holidays, and all playoff matches after.
  • More information will be released soon - keep checking UKT for the latest.

    I think CB will probably check which person has the most support from euro/open cup clans.

    Chris0 has 6K's support, and obviously ONE's from the way khaos was talking. Still not sure if anyone else is actually running for it though :o [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

    Chris0 if I joined in I'd expect to get it. Without being arrogant I should have had it last year. However after teams commiting to me, and me submitting my application and their votes. Yourself and Myers submitted some duplicated votes. Unfortunately I'm well read and the rules stated that clans can only vote once, so not to give their support easily. The supervisor knew this when I pointed it out and the timing between my application and the dynamic duo's application a couple of days later. However, he couldn't back up his argument when I asked to see the evidence on how the result was found and decided to put me on ignore after telling me to 'just deal with it'. That was that, and the UK had their management team.

    This year I'm not going to bother, the UK scene is a bit arsey imo, ego's run wild and the c**ks are still c**ks. This is why I wished you GL when you enquired if I was bothering. I'd rather not get into any threesomes without the missus' permission, only cause complications. So good luck to yourself and to Styla if he wishes.

    All I ask Chris0 is you get as wide a view as possible, from the people who have been around a LONG time but may not be considered '1337'. Also dont be promising people who know they won't make the team on skill some BS team-uk role as backroom staff, in return for their vote.

    I'm going to give you the chance to prove yourself, and hopefully bring some respect back to the UK scene. Everywhere I turn at the moment you have people who'll sell their mates out for a chance at being an elite t**t.

    Everyone needs to take a page out of marine-bob's book, for me he typifies the best of UK CS, both skill and attitude. Listen to some oldskool players who may not be at the top of their game, but always have their finger on the UK CS pulse. I'm always available for my oppinion, wether you want it or not :P

    gonna finish cos im rambling and im in work.. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

    I agree DK. I cant comment on the 1st bit about being picked etc, but can see "what went down". The wide burth of players is larger and more skilled than last time.

    Im not looking for backroom oldies to pick the team, im asking their opinions on players, and if they have noticed anyone who in their opinion should be given a chance.

    A few peeps know that ive spoken to them, and im grateful, i just hope i can get in this time round, without no complications or double votes.

    I'll put in every effort all the time to get team uk performing well in CB Nations. Also i have no other 'orga' work now, so have alot more time, and defo alot more dedication that last time without a doubt.

    And like the chat the other day, i thank you for the GL :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
