Hi, community

One more time, our game will give us wonderful moments with a new edition of World Cup tournament.

My good friend Le_Roy has recovered the control of World Cup after some sabbatical years :D . I will be an obedient co-moderator.

This implies a new format for our main tournament of the year. Until current edition (2017 is still running) World Cup had different formats (Groups, K.O.) but always at the end of the way there was the championship and the Final winner.

2018 will be the first edition with a double stage format.

With a similar format to the previous editions we will have now a "Candidates" tournament, with its own medal :wink: (you can see in attached image below) and the winner of that "Candidates" will win the right to play current World Champion in a Final match. Winner of this match will be the new World Champion!

We have included a first groups phase in Candidates for let all the players have a good experience (at least 6 games)

Of course, I hope that the whole community will enjoy this new format 8)

Thanks, Le_Roy for your great idea!

What is going on with the "blacklisted cheaters" and "banned double-nicks" groups in the WC 2018 players? Is there an announcement there? How are these things figured out? Cheating is a serious charge, and given how small our community is how is it shown?

I would like to know what happened here.

I agree with Happygrue and Xcomcommander. Сan the moderator explain the principle by which he excluded players from the tournament?

What do 1.4 and 1.7 stand for and why is my ranking lower than Prapor and COBA's despite Glicko score being greater both in maximum value and at beginning of tournament?

The semifinal games will begin on January 14 and January 19, 2019. Inferno and Anubis maps.

As for the tournament rating. I think many will agree that it is unfair and partly unwise to rank players by Glicko. Therefore, in the current tournament, a new rating is introduced: the maximum Glicko for a career is multiplied by a factor that takes into account the results in the most difficult tournament - the World Cup.
2.0 - Winner
1.7 - Final
1.4 - Semi-final
1.2 - Quarterfinal

Sorry for not responding for a long time. Enjoy the game and good luck!
