The upcoming week our playoff stage is about to start. To all teams who have qualified, best of luck and have fun gaming. About your next match date, we would like to see you talking to your opponent on IRC as well as challenging them through the ClanBase page. As we do have a very tight playoff schedule, matches that are not confirmed by both clans until sunday will be forced.

The Groupstage of this season is more or less over. Right now we are waiting for a few more matches to be played today as well as some overdue matches which will be played until the end of the week. As soon as everything is done we are going to announce the playoff stage.

Cupadmins/Referees

Every season we ask for dedicated admins to help out the supervisors with uploading screenshots and/or making matchreports. This season is no different so here we go, we are looking for people who can:

• Speak and have decent written English
• Write interesting matchreports, interviews or predictions
• Make well thought out and impartial decisions

Feel like you're up for the task, don't hesitate to sign up. Of course, you can also simply sign up to upload the screenshots of your own match, so you can make the cuppage a bit more interesting for all to see.

As most of you have recognized already, this cup is going to played with forced maps. Each matchweek there will be two different maps to be played. Those maps can not be changed!
But while we created the roster, we not forced the maps only, and forced the match date also. This has been done by mistake. As always, clans are free to pick a match date on their own. And because you were not able to challenge until now, we will give you some more time to challenge your first week matches. We hope that CL's and WA's take care of it right now, otherwise we will have to force unscheduled matches on wednesday night.
