[span style="font-size:18pt'"][div align="center"]$1100 Summer Championship Sign-Ups are Open![/div][/span]

[div style="text-align:center'"]Our plans for the summer tournament here at ESOC are well underway, and the sign-ups are now open to anyone with an ESO account! Sign-ups will be open from today, June 3rd, until Friday, June 26, and there will be no rating requirements for this tournament, so feel free to sign up whether youre PR40 or PR0! :) [/div]

Tournament Rules &' Information
[/div]
[div style="text-align:left'"]We are very excited to announce that we will be using a brand new and diverse group of maps for this event??once again created and balanced by Garja??which will consist of:[/div]
[div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Arkansas[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Manchuria[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Bengal[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Baja California[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Tibet[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Indonesia[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Cascade Range[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]Hudson Bay[/span][/div][div style="text-align:center'"][span style="font-size:12pt'"]High Plains[/span]
[/div]
[div style="text-align:left'"]Well include more details on these maps once theyre polished and released for all of you to practice on (which will be very soon!), but if you want to sneak a peak at some of these maps, _H2O, Garja, and myself spent a few hours streaming last weekend while testing the new maps, which you can watch here: http://www.twitch.tv/ryanmankle/v/5634811.

I should also mention that were going to be including a new rule along with the map pool: rather than playing out the same maps every single match, our staff will instead be announcing a unique map pool for each tournament match! We will accomplish this by using a program to randomly pull from the map pool to make map sets. This method will make sure the maps that are randomly selected are different enough.
[/div]
[div align="center"]Hopefully youre all hyped for the tournament, because we sure are, and we hope to see your names flooding the sign-ups thread![/div]

Random Maps in map pool is certainly good idea :)

Because it is unfair. If you take france and you play on indonesia or choose brit and play on bengal it won't be cool.

You are told the maps in advance (when each round begins). So you don't have to take france on indonesia.

By "randomly selected" Mitoe means that there isn't a set order for the maps as we had last time (Kamchatka then Hudson then Siberia then ... every series etc.)

Though there are constraints on the process to stop anyone getting 3 water maps in a row for example and other unfair combinations.
