I don't think so to be honest, it is in favour of France imo.
Anyway, it won't happen since I leave the SW, I came for a nation war, I didn't want to play a clan war again and it seems that it isn't a nation war anymore...

Up to you. ;/

Obviously we'd prefer to have you on board but I'm not forcing anyone to do anything.

For some reason people joining clans outside their nationality was perfectly fine until BS_OP and Erik started doing it. No one cared that HP-33 was a mix, nor NATO, nor did anyone care about how mixed up some of the other teams came to be. I don't get it, but whatever. To me it's just double-standards where people are OK with things that won't affect them being the favorites, but if their own shot at winning the event is put in danger, then suddenly it becomes a problem. Strong World has long since departed a pure nation war. Being too rigid in that regard just means it's x10 harder to get games going, Strong World is about GETTING teams going.

Strong World is a team event. It's better to have ONE active team than 3 inactive teams. I thought that much was obvious.

My opinion :
I'm not against flexibility but if there is a prize pool then there should not be flexibility.
I think it's even more disgusting for nations like India or WPact that schedule/play their games and animate Strong World. The current turn of events would make them useful idiots or stooges in spite of themselves !

I don't think people care about money.
I didn't want to participate in this event, seeing how the last one went, but I came because it was a nation war. Now it is not anymore and I'm not interested in playing this.

I don't get it. Why weren't these remarks made when HP-33 signed up? Or when there were two different Dutch teams? Or NATO?

Yea lol, it's nice that such a good player as you, diarouga, takes part in it, but now you make drama out of nothing. Show some respect to everyone who participates and don't forfeit in the middle of the tournament.

@Jerom
Man you're a mod, are you supposed to flame like this 24/7 or can you take a break.. ?

@iNcog
I won't leave SW because I think the event is still fun, but well you have to admit that a team making no effort to schedule, then resigning because they are too lazy to carry on, then coming back with 2 top players only because they learnt there is a prize pool (and suddenly managing to schedule, weird isn't it ?) isn't exactly what you would call playing fair. It kinda kills the event to see this kind of behavior imo

So it's fine that team Finland forfeits in the middle of the tournament (to come back later for money reasons) but not if diarouga quits ? I don't understand. Who was the least respectful in your opinion ?

As I said before, I'm not a fan of finland dropping out then coming back, but at very least they are willing to play. I'm not going to make a big deal out of it. Tbh many other clans have "resigned" only they didn't do so formally. ;/

my own remark is more wondering why we didn't hear the need for "let's be strict on nationality" before. bs_op and erik are far from the first guys who are playing on the wrong "national" team. so why didn't we hear about it before?

it's just beating a dead horse at this point so really i'm just going to leave it.

i'll continue to run the event for those interested in participating. that's all. ^^

For me generally resigning in the middle of a tournament isn't something to be proud of. However, they have every right to come back any time, according to the rules. Of course it's not particularly noble behaviour, but I think we should all accept it and play on. Like iNcog mentioned plenty of times, other teams are formed and forfeit, too, as well as they group people from numerous countries at the same time, so IMO we shouldn't complain about team Finland, however bad it seems.

Yes they resigned but didn't come back just when they learnt about he prize pool...

Because again, when other people changed their team it was just to be with mates, or to be in a more active team. But team Finland obviously did that only for the prize pool, and that pisses me off. It really sucks. I personally don't really care about the prize pool, I didn't know there was one either before, but I just don't like the spirit of not caring about a community event/trying hard when you learn there is a prize pool.
But as I said I'll still play it. Though if diarouga leaves, + people avoiding Kynesie, I'm not sure how I will do this.

fair enough, can't really disagree to be quite frank. i understand the sentiment, though in the end a competition is a competition

anyway, no use beating the horse, which is past dead. best move on and try to get some game going. or in france's case, prepare for S class. i wouldn't be opposed to the French team picking up one or two other people if diarouga really quits. kind sucks really, as everything is a compromise of a compromise already, but we'll make due and try to see things through to the end

This. That Finland decided to rejoin is basically just positive, regardless of the motive. Stronk2world is all about increasing community actitive and inclusion; the nation-wars setting, the flexible rules, the prize pool – all of it!
