November 2011 Oceanic Challenge

VonChoker, on Nov 14 2011 - 23:25, said: I have to be honest, this tournament has been a complete shambles and has left me bitter. Errors I see:
1) The final teams get posted 12 hours before the tournament, Completely unacceptable. There are many teams who have been training for this and to be told your time was wasted is rediculous. There were well over 64 teams awaiting approval before the weekend and the teams should have been announced on friday, considering wargaming doesn't work weekends.
2) 64 team limit. It seems that in past events at the drop of a hat the limit gets increased to 128 yet for this one no dice. Considering there are more than 400 teams in the process of forming (the largest response i've seen for a tournament held by wg yet) and have been since last week this tournament should have been increased in size then.
3) Notifications. Aside from the original post in the news on 11-8-11 there has been no notifications since then leaving everyone in the dark. If it weren't for the sporadic posts on this thread then no-one would have any idea what was going on and it wasn't till 10:41pm 11-14-11 that information was finally forthcoming. Completely unacceptable way to run a tournament and keep people up to date.
If you guys are this incompetent and spend more time worrying about your expo in Korea (news articles for the last two days) than existing customers then I see no solution but to skip future tournaments.
p.s. And I see the latest news article on the North America Challenge posted minutes ago states a 64 team tournament unlike General Directions post above claiming it will be 128 teams. So the disinformation continues, brilliant.
