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.
That's common logic. You take the risk that you may play 3,000 games and by the end of the day, you will get the response that you were not eligible to play from the very beginning.

If I play 3000 games of BW at least I've spent a lot of time doing something I enjoy  although I doubt I will play even close to that many games lol
In this regard I will try my luck, and if it looks good for me towards the end (which I doubt), I will provide the data.
Thanks for further clarification.

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).
Just "donate" $50 towards the prize pool and he might do without cell phone.

you can start now. Players from russia also play ladder stage and must qualify for FSU/EU Qualifier. you can also win Moscow Lan, which means direct invite.

Any casting for the events?

I can certainly see the point of needing all sorts of personal data for assistance with visas and other travel needs.
I don't think it's justified at the beginning of the qualifying process. It might turn people away and you'll have to store and process A LOT of data that way. What you added as a spoiler is a good idea, so good job of thinking LML's issues through.
It would do no good to us as a community, however, if players that are not eligible decide to participate in the ladder stage and confuse the admins/referees when final standings are analyzed. This is probably why Brain wants to have info right at the start. I find the probability that Korean players would do that rather low. This is speculation, but I suppose there are a select few who have been blacklisted for trying to cheat the selection process, have had a history of hacking (recently) or whatever, but weeding them out would be a tough job even with the details required. I hope the community would ostracize such individuals and make the organizers' job easier. I'm not a huge fan of measures like what Brain proposes, but we'd all like for the qualification process to be smooth, so we'll have to find a compromise.

Yes.
“Ladder qualification will last until April 30, 2020 24:00 CET.“

Corrupted Cup had Ro24 groups, but RCG2020 has only Ro16 groups? Am I reading this information correctly?
Thanks

Sad that we won't see any koreans. That was the most interesting to watch when foreigners play vs koreans and winning against them while all world is rooting for them.
Like White_ra beaten stork, Androide beaten silent control and stuff like that was fkn awesome.
Msg me if seeking for multilingual casters english/russian/latvian/german. i would even buy a new laptop and come back for this. ^^

I agree that it's awesome to have foreigners vs koreans, but not for such big prizepool. We get enough of these matches in STPL and Jeez weekly, so i don't think we need them in RCG

Yeah it's fine when Koreans win, but not when they can win money!
