[Pinkthoth]

Conscript reporting. Any one of those dates is fine for me.

[milkman]

Nice!

From the top of my head I could play these two dates, the first one being a maybe

- Saturday May 14th
- Saturday May 21st

[Odourless]

Sounds awesome! You best believe I'm available on all dates noted!

[Gajcus]

14th or 21st of May would be ideal
Gacius signing up!

[SinJul]

On May 8th I can only play until 18:00 CEST.
Else only 21st works.

[Icesinithol]

Signing up, any date works for me.

[ZxGanon]

^^ZxGanon^^ signing up!

- Saturday May 14th
- Saturday May 21st

[Blackened]

any of those dates work for me

[KSK_Nico]

NicoNicoNii is going to serve as an idol for the community. Sign me up!!
- Saturday May 14th
- Saturday May 21st
(8th would also work but requires some restructuring depending on the time)

[Darkademic]

So it's looking like 21st is shaping up to be the best date. Currently at 15 players (+1 if required, +2 tentative):

For maps I've come up with this list.

Grand Canyon
Amsterdamned
Bad Company
Inhospitality
Crusade
Eden Lake
Moonopoly
Summer Camp
The Auld Gate
Wetlands
Trapped
Acid Reign

Currently working on getting 0.82 ready.

[J!NX]

I'm interested, may have a conflict on the 21st, but it will probably work out (I want to make this)
Will there be any rules or last minute balances to this tourney? Or can we expect to play with all of the units in the current version (0.81) ?

[Margot Honecker]

I may be available; the best date is probably the 21st. I'm not any good at CA though!

Cool, any idea how likely? I think we've got enough to say it's definitely going to be on the 21st.

It will be played on 0.82, which should be released sometime today to give people a chance to practice for the tournament without further changes.
