EPTGambit's Cup Round 2 will be starting in the new year with a $1000 Winner takes all prize pool. The tournament will be hosted by LRM)nOoNe. Given nOoNe's position on team LRM), there will be an appeal process in which I can overthrow a ruling, however... It's not likely to happen because I have full confidence in nOoNe's ability to be unbiased.
Disclaimer
I know the changes to euro aren't fair, or balanced or anything of the sort, it is not intended to be.
Second, Euro Open Championships is now Euro Closed Championships. The process will be invite only. The primary reason for this is anger management issues on my part, I just really don't feel like dealing with most of the community, yet I don't want to disappoint the people I do like, thus a select few will be chosen to participate. Chosen players may be asked to play a qualifier depending on the amount of players chosen from their country... If this is already done by feat of Euro's first qualifier this weekend, then those players will be selected of the chosen ones, no additional qualifier required.
If your name doesn't appear, then it is likely that I don't really like you or your skill level simply won't compare to that of the people in the tournament i.e. Shimy
(Or I forgot you... Either way).Listed players must confirm attendance before the new year.

Location will be moved to Europe.

There is also a website in the works where you will be able to easier track this tournament. I will not be posting updates on TL once that is up... It should be fairly soon.
