Every year since 2007, we have the main MAN2 tournament. We can name that winners – Pitor (2007), Rocklizard (2008) and AHqpeu (2009) – the best player of the year or World Champion. Now, the tradition goes on. In September we will start the next main individual tourney – World Cup 2010. For the first time – the official diploma of winner and place in the Hall of Fame on the website!

Maps -

1/16 -Noble Rust
1/8 -Crateus
1/4 -Anubis
1/2 -Twin Islands
Final -Trinity

One game for F.N.U., one game for PL on every rounds.

Who has chosen these maps? I would prefer New Paradise over Twin Islands.

Not long ago there was finished tourney King of New Paradise (winner –dav11),the final of Large Map Cup will be on New Paradise.I think that is enough.

Registration is opening.

Twin Islands is a very poor map for knock-out tournaments since it is very heavily dependent on starting lay-out.

Please reconsider, by the time that we get to the Semi-final, it will be a long time since the New Paradise tournament. If not new Paradise then Sea Switzerland would be a much better alternative.

Yes, Sea Switzerland would be a much better choice. Please reconsider this!
Another thing: A 10 day chess clock is too short. I would join the tournament if the chess clock is extended to 14 days.

o.k. - The rules are changed: Sea Switzerland for semifinal and 14 days for semi- and final rounds.

Thanks, I'm in.

I registered for a Cup but I am a trial player and cant play on Beotorum, Noble Rust ... cause its grayed. Is there a limited time-period registration key for trial players during the World Cup 2010?

thanks

I dont know that....Russians players can buy 30- , 90 - days key for game (not for World Cup).What situation in another countries....???

I have idea for additional advertising of MAN2. It is - give a free time-limited registration key to all demo-players registered in World Cup 2010 tournament. Key is valid during time of tournament.

Accepted.

ALL demo-players registered in World Cup 2010 tournament will receive a limited subscription.

That`s the spirit.

But how about couple days before cup begins, for a quick look at the maps?

strikan
Ok. 2 or 3 days

Yes.

Looking forward to play with you master Jedi Knight.

May the force be with you.

Question on who will qualify for next round.

If 2 from each group go through that would be 34, plus top 20 with free pass would be 54, but I think we need 64?

But looks like only 15 of 20 will play?

Guess I'm missing something!

If I have understood Le Roy in the russian forum correctly then 18 winners of groups and 14 best glicko players (including Bambr or Tywer) will play. If Bambr and Tywer can't/won't play then the best second place of all groups is going to play.

All participants(from Qualification) of play-off are known -

Megacles, happygrue, Lokomotiv, socky, WiSt, Kozlodoyev, MARINA, scout, 1_ruma, Assistend, Barrr, vladim, sapara, Prapor, PAPENS, Rem, Zartak and Goo

Check the news, we will start the next round very soon!

So, -
