Prime Defending #2

 *Ok we are down to the final 4, and as faith have wanted it, we are now sure to see another American vs Europe in the final. In the upper part of the bracket we find STFU vs DP and in the lower coL vs TPD. Shoutcast will be available*

As announced here, we are now launching our second edition of the 5on5 DotA tournament here on mYm. For some weeks the users have been able to come with their input for the rules, so we could ensure the best playing conditions for everybody in our tournament.

We have now looked at and reevaluated the rules, so everything is settled for the upcomming tournament. For the complete rules check out the rules page found on the right. Here you can also find links for information on how to signup, aswell as lists of all the signed up teams.

There will be held four different qualifiers based on location. One American/Canadian, one European, one Russian/Eastern European and finally one Mixed. The following countries go under the Russian/Eastern European qualifier: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Romania, Moldova, Bulgaria, Latvia, Estonie, Lithuania. A teams location is based on the majority of its playing members. So if a team has 3 players from Finland and 2 from Russia, then the team is considered European. In the mixed qualifier everybody is allowed to participate, but each team may only sign up for one qualifier.

The date for the tournament will be 10-11th of June for all qualifiers and 17-18th of June for the finals. Times for the different qualifiers are:

American / Canadian Qualifier: 14:00 Central Time (GMT-6:00)
European Qualifier: 14:00 CET (GMT+1:00)
Russia / Eastern Europe Qualifier (Ukraine, Belarus, Romania, Moldova, Bulgaria, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania): 12:00 CET (GMT+1:00)
Mixed Qualifier: 18:00 CET (GMT+1:00)

Finals: 18:00 CET (GMT+1:00)

Prizes

1st place:
5 x Raptor Gaming M2 Mice
5 x Qpad Mousepads
5 x 1 Months free mYm Lounge access

2nd place:
5 x Qpad Mousepads
5 x 1 Months free mYm Lounge access

3rd Place:
5 x 1 Months free mYm Lounge access


Meeting Place

All teams must meet up in channel #mym on IRC Quakenet, 30 minuttes prior to the start of their qualifier, and TEAM LEADERS must check in with the tournament supervisor who will be announced later.

IRC is necessary since there are so many teams, and there is not room for so many people on a Battle.net channel, so make sure that you get IRC working before the tournament.


Also you must remember to stay on IRC at all times, so we can keep in contact. If a team stops responding on IRC and Battle.net then it may recieve a default loss.

#2 It is a 5on5 tour, we cant support 20 prizes in each just beacause the team has that amount of members.

Yea I realize it is 5 on 5, im not argueing. But some players may be sad if their team wins and they get nothing. But I guess you can split all the prizes.

I believe I heard that TaZZ will be back soon to update all the teams that have applied.

Unfortunately for me I won't be able to make this tourney but expect my buddy DJ to tear it up!

why are you making the eastern europe/russian quals so late? i beleive that it should be earlier compared to the european ones, cause they are mostly CET time or CET-1, and we are +1 and +2. so the qualifier starts 20:00 russian time and ends? middle of the night ;) think about it plz
and thx ;)

Only 40-50 teams signed up? I think we need some serious lobby work done! How about you guys help us spread the word and help us get more sign-ups. The bigger a success, the earlier a bigger follow-up tourney ;)
