Freeplay
we know that Freeplay is important, maybe even more important than the Tournament itself for many players. It will be hard to freeplay against all good players during the Tournament. For that reason we are trying to manage the Friday before the Tournament for a Freeplay Day. about 12 Hours Play with lot tvs and the best players in europe. I dunno yet if this session requires an entry fee. If its the case it will not surpass 5 euro. I will keep u in touch.
Entry Fee
Entry into the venue is free and entry for the Tournament will be 20 Euros. The Payment will be done via Paypal this time. all participants are requested to pay one week before the Tournament. we will announce the groups on the sites, days before the Tournament, so all players could study and train against his oppenents chars of the Group. Players who didnt prepay, still allowed to attend the tournament, but must pay 25 euro instead and will be put randomly in one of the 8 (or 16) groups.
This payment system allows us to avoid any troubles and confusions in the groups and to save a lot of time in the organization and schedule of the Tournament.
