This is based on people that replied to the post in the discussion board, plus those I harassed into telling me if they could make it.

I will add that most of you told me you'd be fine with stepping aside for others so it's good to see that I have to be the bad guy.

Ok I'm going, what do I do?

I'm glad you asked! Now see its two simple things:

1. Verify yourself on battlefy. You all gave me emails, an email should of been sent to this asking for you verify yourself. At this point in time I'm waiting on Thiama, McFasty and Slick, no suprises.

2. Get on teamspeak between 5-6 pm GMT. Tell me if you can't make it otherwise.

What are the event times?

Times are in GMT.

17:30 Start livestream

17:45 Seed bracket

Upcoming tournaments - Read me!
What's happening currently?
As all of you should know / remember (except Taerix, sorry we missed ya!) we of course are not participating in the tournament this weekend (duh) as it never went ahead.

I finished my correspondence with the tourney organizer and apparently it was because they didn't get anywhere enough peeps and so decided to just cancel it without any intelligent posting. As I’ve said before, apologies to any of you that set aside time.

We have started to do team games now and we will be doing a lot more of these to continue our practice.

What now then?
So we are now looking for tournaments to join, I've personally been looking at things from terrible small affairs to the open qualifiers at premier tourneys and it can be quite difficult to find tournaments at this time of year with enough notice for people to respond about. With the small tournaments there is of course the reality that they might screw us around by not starting, this is an aspect we'll have to consider.

So find some then.
I will be setting up a forum here on our steam group and starting new topics for potential tournaments I can find (you can do this too!). So I will look into tournaments, trying to find influential and good attendance tournaments to join.

Here's a linky, I will be posting these as I find them, so keep yourself updated:

http://steamproxy.com/groups/WalrusRising/discussions/2/

What do we do?
What I want from you guys is to respond to the topics stating if you can attend that tournament or not, along with thoughts on it. This is important as we can use this as a tell if it’s possible for us to join it.

Bare with me guys, I will document potential tournaments we can join and if we can get enough people, we will be in them.

Thanks for reading, let's get some more practice in!

We will smash through the brick walls.

Looking forward to our first tourney, I'm sure we'll hit some brick walls, but we'll do it together!

Read and understood Mr Mcfasty, I'll try to get practice games up in this period.
McFasty 30 Nov, 2015 @ 11:25pm 
From 01/12/15 to 16/12/15 I will be around for training matches. Hit me up on steam if theres anything that needs to get covered in terms of the small laning phase or our strategy/hero picks - anything.

Cheers.
McFasty
