doing these tournaments is if the prize count is raised or if the
team count is lowered, these really aren't worth the time
anymore. Also, any updates on the soccer tournament? I
asked about it 4 weeks ago and still haven't had a
response. Will the top 8 teams from the silver cup move on and
play in the gold cup finals? It was under the impression the
gold cup was supposed to take place on the 15th, now it seems its
not happening at all. The one tournament I was actually looking
forward to. DomoSapien: I believe I answered your question a few days ago in the Soccer
tournaments megathread but yes, the top 8 teams from the Silver Cup
will move on to the Grand Finals.
The Gold cup is definitely happening, it's live on the tournament page and registration has been open since July 9th, ending on the 19th.
Group stages will be held starting July 21, 09:00 PT | 11:00 CT | 12:00 ET. Play-offs will be held starting July 21, 12:00 PT | 14:00 CT | 15:00 ET. The Grand Final will be held starting July 22, 12:00 PT | 14:00 CT | 15:00 ET.

Paris may not be everyone's favorite for 15v15 but it should be
interesting for a tournament format.

clans that have the most cheat mod players too.
DomoSapien: Nobody is kissing up to anyone. In fact, the reason we are running
two tournaments simultaneously is that we want to have one sort of
"Champions" tournament where teams with more competitive experience
can compete for a more substantial prize (this is the best way we
can currently think of giving less-experienced teams a shot at
winning some tournaments) and a sort of "Challengers" tournament
where less-experienced teams can participate without necessarily
getting crushed immediately by more-experienced teams.

simultaneously... 
DomoSapien: True, it's impossible for a team to play in both tournaments, but
that's the idea. If I'm not mistaken, one of the reasons why
tournaments were originally cancelled was that they ended up being
a Gold funnel for the same, say, 5% of players that would win
tournaments over and over. We are exploring ways to distribute this
a bit more while having the rewards still be meaningful and, well,
rewarding.
At the end of the month we will be posting a feedback thread so we can get a better idea of sentiment around the tournaments we've had thusfar, and we will re-evaluate for next month.
