Very nice! I might actually try to go to this one as an observer.

Hopefully we get another ~$6k in donations so we get another event next year as well!

Rus_Brain would you be interested in using (4)Clay Fields and (4)Bubbles instead of cb and fs? New decade, new maps?
Check out Dewalt casting Korean players on these maps here:



Clay Fields okay.. but its still FS 2.0 basically..

but Bubbles is just reskinned FS man :D + one more bridge at each corner

Map pool will probably change for the main tournament anways.

You must register an account with a tag RCG20- (in example RCG20-Brain, or RCG20-Largo) on any Battle.net realm and send a short email to the secretary@esport.fund:

Your full name
Your cell phone
An ID you created
Your Battle.net realm


wtf is that though? Requesting that of people who qualify, sure. But anyone who signs up? Data protection laws exist for the very good reason of not asking for arbitrary information without proper business use.

Based on past year experience, proactive measures are necessary to run the tournament smooth and clear, without any disturbance, which is a proper business use.
I belive the reputation so far earned justifies the risk of revealing personal data. If otherwise, one may wish to watch the tournament without revealing anything.

Personally it will keep me from participating, as I don't want to give my name + phone number away like that. That's PII and shouldn't be asked to participate in a tournament.
I could understand having a non-smurf policy asking unknown players to provide proof of residence if they're performing well in the ladder stage (before its conclusion). But this way you're basically just gathering personal information.

Hey so I was born in the Soviet Union then I lived and was citizen of Russia then I lived in Austria, Germany, and Holland in that order before moving back to Russia then I moved to the United States and became a naturalized citizen before going back to Russia a few times and then I played while I was on vacation in Aruba, I also developed MacauLauncher, but then I played in the Russian team for ICCup Nation Wars on the B team, and then after that I had an account first from Thailand then Japan then Greece, so can I play for a South American spot in the qualifier because I like Latino women?

PS. Can't send address or copy of passport or personal information because it is against the law of Borneo and Papua New Guinea.

This is what you can technically do - start laddering as is, and closer to the end day decide whether to share or not if you belive you can qualify.

So passport copy and proof or residence is okay, but a name and phone is GDPR LAW BREACH?
...I don't know what to say.

The OP makes it look like people need to immediately provide name and phone number when they make an account, and your previous reply makes it sound the same.
Your latest reply only makes it sound like it's required at the end of the ladder stage, but before you said it's used to weed out players proactively. Which way is it now? Obviously anyone who wants to just play can send bogus information which defies the method and only has the honest players give away private information.
And no, passport data would obviously be even worse!

If you are so much good lawyer citing GDPR then you must be very well aware of what may happen with you when you are misrepresenting something with "bogus" information.

Regarding your very important comment on what should and what should not be asked to participate in a tournament, you should have to:
  • Tell your name,
  • Tell your age,
  • Tell your address,
  • Show your passport
when you were about to sign up for WCG back these days. At least this is what was the case in Russia.

If you want to play, but you are worried about revealing your precious name and your red line cell phone, I haven't any chance to forbid you making the RCG20-Nickname account, have I? The only thing is that I won't admit you to qualify to the national stage if I get the info after the ladder stage results are announced, even despite your MMR is more than those of Flash. You are just late.

If you want to follow the tournament and watch, please be the guest. If you need visa support, please just PM me any time (although I will ask for your name and cell phone, sic!)

If you want to talk and theorize. You may wish to test your luck and send bogus information. By no means I encourage you to do that.

I've never claimed to want to send bogus information myself. But those who are not eligible to play (like Koreans for example) wouldn't be affected by that anyway. I've also never claimed to be a lawyer or know the GDPR laws by heart. Just that requesting this information simply to sign up for the ladder is a bit much to ask (that's what the OP implies afterall).

So from your latest post I understand that the information is only needed at the end of the ladder stage (right before its conclusion) of the players who are about to qualify?
That would obviously make a huge difference.

I am with LML on this one, because my reaction when i saw the sign up requirement was absolutely the same. You don't really need that information before the official results from the online tournaments are in. I would be surprised if any of these players after having qualified take more than a few hours to provide their personal info in preparation for the stay in Russia. The tournaments are completed when, end of May, early June? It's a few months time to prepare the Visa, accommodation, etc. I don't want this to sound like i don't appreciate the effort, but this is something to take into consideration (my opinion).
