In my opinion by stating the rules, as they were, and I think everybody knows what they are - the topic is closed. You can accept that or don´t play. If they Rules are now called other than CoL or so is really a word-picking.

REgards Thomas
So what exactly did you mean when you stated that "I would have won a lot of money, when there would have been a bet like: Sauron will bring up the his/the time limit as soon as the first anouncement of nations cup rules were posted ;)" ? If that wasn't a joke?

So let me get this straight: Last year people tell me I should have brought it up sooner.
This year I bring it up sooner and you want to just dismiss it?

And it's not nit-picking if someone says they'yre using CoL tournament rules then they should be using the said rules. The CoL Tournament policy is a specific set of rules, and if you deviate from the tournament policy then it shouldn't be stated that you're following the policy. If anything this causes confusion.

I REALLY hope we get to play each other and you see 1st hand how terrible this is going to be. I hope you enjoy a nice 6-8 hour game if we play each other.

The game is flawed, but this does not mean it cannot be loved.

I don't really think that's appropriate or helps the matter.

If everyone is so against trying to fix slow play and time limits, maybe I'm just better off leaving meccg to you guys and forming my own council where rules will be enforced. Perhaps it's time for the Council of Sauron to rise and those who want to play in structured format can come with.

May I remark that I find this completely under the belt. I find that brian has a point in too long turns. Agreed, his method of proving might be a lil overdoing, such slander is not deserved. I rather see him mention it early so it can be discussed properly.

Im not sure how we should play. I dont see chance for more teams but still have 4 days for registration. Anyway if we play only with 4 "countries", we will have to decide about the system. In my opinion playing 3 rounds, later semis and finals will be boring with small number of participants. I suggest to play round robin or semis+finals. What do you think about it?

No discussion about time limit.

We need one more team. Any players who want to play, try contact each other, also from diffrent countries to make a missing team.
