"New Year, New York, he doesn't know which it is!"
That certainly is good humor Craig style. But lets stop the fighting here and now guys. Its a memorial cup so like going to church for a memorial service, show respect.
And Caff has a point. It was a bit "hi-jacked" into a Super league format and that was not the original idea CK best friends like Swimmer, TheSamurai.. intended it to be.
And these players are his friends because go to CaronylKlusters wall and you can see their names as sitters..
Craig his name is not listed there..
CaronylKlusters sitters should decide what format it needs to be to honor CK.. so no banned maps like Swimmer explained but a round 20 limit seems a great idea to keep the peace.
Also i think Craig had nothing but good intentions so lets forget the quarrels and lets play this to honor CaronylKluster.

And thanks again to everyone who wants to be involved, if you don't want to be a part of the memorial, feel free to pass, and lets have a blast!
Well, I don´t know if I´m listed or not, because I´m in the Super League but I posted here to change my home map, and since it´s been an absolute confusion I don´t know. Anyway I´d like to be out of this tournament, and regret that what should be a hommage to someone has turned in a childish dispute of egos. And one little sugestion for the moderators, always ready to proclaim their moral superiority: if you don´t want to be seen as someone stealing the voluntary job of someone, create a new topic for the tournament (the name can stay the same, of course), letting clear the changes of rule and that you´re not using anything that Craig had done, and THEN let people enlist for it. It´s not so hard to do and would let a better impression in people like me, who are watching from the outside this deplorable event
I'd still like to play, and since evidently a lot of rules have changed, I'll change my home map - Conquer Rome! Used to play that a lot but haven't in a while since it's so big...

"create a new topic for the tournament"
eh, did you even take the trouble to go see who started the topic?

These maps were excluded from the tournament for two very good reasons.
One, they are complex and give an advantage to expert players, destroying the "everyman has a chance" democratic nature of this tournament.
Two, they greatly increase the time needed to play, changing the tournament from being fun to being a chore.
I think allowing the giant maps back in completely undercuts the original intent of this tournament.
I don't think I will go to the extreme of resigning, as many others have, but my delight and enthusiasm for this tournament has definitely been undermined.
Map size will not drag it too much with Escalating Cards + Chained reinforce settings.
In Super League, It is Flat Rate & Adjacent reinforce which effect differently on large maps

Once those respond, and before Sunday evening, Round 1 to be send out, currently 142 participants meaning Round 1 will start with 71 match-up.
Good luck to everyone and thanks for joining, the entire roster will receive the Silver CK Cup special item in their inventory and as long as a player finish at least Round 1.
