World of Tanks Summer Classic

CabbageMechanic: Reserves: Were disallowed because of concerns about prizing to players who did not actually participate (a frequent occurrence previously), and because they would have significantly diluted the overall prize pool.  We understood going in that the lack of reserves would suck and did set to work on a solution.  Good news: we have figured out a way to restrict prizing to team members who play a predetermined amount of battles.  Bad news: it is too late to implement this for the Summer Classic.  The November and December Seasonal Classics will both have reserve slots and both require those reserves to play in a few games to win prizes.

West Coasters: I feel your pain.  This issue was discussed extensively but the reality of timezones put us in a spot where it starts far too early for some players or ends far too late for some other players - no easy solution.  We can perhaps mix it up in November so the inconvenience can be shared between the coasts.

Prizing:  The excellent folks have Corsair are raising the stakes by providing Void Pro Surround headsets, Sabre Mice, and Strafe keyboards for our top finishers.  First place team will receive all three, second place team will receive mice and headsets, third place team will receive headsets
