Note, it has been asked about the maps.

Two things here.

Currently there are no restrictions. I have pmed both captains to see if they wish any reasonable restrictions (no beta, no freestyle, no manual, no nuclear). If both captains agree to any or all of these they will be implimented for the tournament but neither side is required to do so.

Also, it has been asked if a player can wait and consult with their team mates on maps and settings, this is permissible and for this reason, maps and settings will be editable by the players until May 25. After that time they are locked in.

Also, you will not know your opponents.

For example, Mudpuppy will set his US squad in 4 teams of quads

he'll then send it to me as Team A (player 1, 2, 3, 4) Team B (player 1, 2, 3, 4) and Team C (player 1, 2, 3, 4)

Sonicsteve will do the same for the World Squad and Team A will play Team A, Team B will play Team B and Team C will play Team C.

Apparently I pulled Shoop76's information when he had a Canadian sitter in there for him.

Here's how we're going to handle this particular situation.

1. If all 12 US players accept the invitation shoop will play on the World Team, if one of the US players declines, Shoop will move over to the US squad.

(unless there is a player on the US team flying the wrong flag-easy to do if I catch them with a sitter)
