It's not like you can just sign up for the nations cup. You have to be at least reasonably well informed to become captain of a team...
UGC currently has 66 active HL teams from Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and South America. I'm sure many of those team leaders would qualify to put together a team for the Nations Cup and it wouldn't be unreasonable for many of them to be surprised they would be forced to play only in Europe for something entitled "The Nations Cup".
I'm not trying to argue policy here, I'm merely saying that it should either be a global Nations Cup with fair pings, or it should be mentioned in the announcements/specific rules of future Nations Cups that the event is designed for European countries and that although countries outside Europe are welcome, they are expected to play on European servers and times. It's not a clarification needed for every tournament ETF2L holds; it's only needed for the one(s) whose name suggests it encompasses more than Europe. That's it. One small sentence which could potentially save a bit of hassle and/or frustration for people down the line.
It's in the General Rules, which apply to all competitions on ETF2L.
5.2 European server recommended
The ETF2L is a European League, you cannot force opponents to play on non-European servers. We strongly recommend using servers located central in Europe, such as the Netherlands or Germany.

I don't think this rule makes the most sense when applied to the ETF2L Nations Cups. The goal of the Nations Cups is to get countries from all over the world involved, but, with this rule in place, European teams (unless they are incredibly generous) will always have the ping advantage over teams from Australia, New Zealand, Korea, Canada, Brazil, the United States, etc. For these cups, why not use a server equidistant between both countries, or, at the very least, alternate between servers for each map?
The goal is not to get countries from all over the world involved, that aim is completely impractical due to timezones and ping issues. The competition is aimed at European countries, however other countries are welcome if they are willing to play under EU timezones/pings which I feel like is made quite clear.
You can never ever have a truly International Online event for the reasons I listed above, and this certainly isn't an attempt at one.
SideshowIf anyone needs a lift from somewhere roughly along the preston->lan route then I have 2 free seats.
warning, this is his car
AndKennethPermzillaThe classic "tf2 will die after this LAN" posts that happen every year, never fails to amuse me.
The only thing that will make this a dead game is the lack of people wanting to organise leagues. THEN the game will die. It's a little but different in the US because it's more about when the leagues stop making money but the same principle applies.
Completely agree, was talking about this to some people recently. I can't see anything else 'killing' tf2 other than that.

hookyDroidsterNice plan to keep Europe sedated whilst you kill 6v6 and replace it with 4v4 to kill TF2 m8It's not his plan, it's the Germans!

Those of you who read our forums might already know that Cherry has been working on an overhaul of the ETF2L frontend. We're happy to announce that the new design is ready for public testing and we're inviting you to give it a try and provide feedback!
Aside from the aesthetic overhaul, the theme also introduces a number of new features, including:
-Compatibility with mobile devices!
-Popovers for players and teams on mouse over
-Visual formatting editor for forum posts and comments
-Arie's competitive server list integration
-TF2Pickup.net status integration
If you wish to opt into the beta, simply visit the beta site or click the message at the top of the page. To opt out of the beta, click the message at the top of the beta site. Having an account or logging in is not necessary, but you must have cookies enabled.
As the new design is still in active development, there may be some rough edges and some aspects of the design may be subject to change before release. If you have any suggestions, find a bug or just want to say how much you like(or don't like) the new design, please post in the feedback thread on our forums.
Thanks!

KidIpzyour hobby is "etf2l? you said so yourself =(
HEH
still doesn't mean i can write, i'm a maths student at university so words are a mystery to me
KidIpzETF2L has nothing going for it other than 1 or 2 big games a season ( from an advertising point of view). So I think a "little hype post" is just piss poor. We are not talking about big in depth stats articles here but you knew that at a certain time there would be a certain game that would need certain coverage and nothing is done. This shit on etf2l was written within 5min and is the most uninspired stuff I´ve read in ages. "Fl1p is out - zappis is in - epsi was always good but are they bad now since they dropped some rounds vs fnx? - drop i52 reminder here" - took me 15sec. You dont even know how unhyped I would be just looking at ETF2L for this game.
a small hype article - for the biggest game.
#rip
edit: It personally surprises me perm, that you weren´t keener on seeing this game advertised properly since you are basically in the entourage of half the people involved in it.
what should be in a 'hype post' then? what do you want to read about to get hyped?
of course i'd love to have a great article, but i am personally not capable of writing a neat coherent article and there aren't many people willing AND capable as shown by no article on vanillatf2/tftv.
etf2l has never (as far as i can remewmber) written "articles" - i presume you mean the kind that admirable and others write and post on tftv.
this is a small 'hype' post to make sure people are aware of the event, and not meant to be an in-depth article.
if you expect a nice article about it then thats a different thing altogether
KidIpzBlackOutJontheres still no article :D nor is one in the makingHerr_PNo etf2l article / matchticker until less than 24 hours before the game :'(
ETF2L articles don't go up until the day of the match
