Hello Folks,

First a word about the prem finals. We are trying to make them get played by next sunday and after that Sixth ENSL is finally over. Thanks again to all who had participated and have been patient.

Then the actual news! Nations Cup sign ups are now open. A captain of each country should post a lineup of his national team here, following these instructions. Anyone may report oneself as his (or her) nation's captain, but discussion about that is strongly recommended to be held on national irc channels and the decision should be done in agreement. In case there's dispute, we will make the decision. The signups will be closed Saturday the 21st of April. Since we want next ENSL season running well before summer, a cup system is used and the Nations Cup will last 2-3 weeks, which means each team should be capable of playing maximum of about 4 matches in that time. Thus, the Nations Cup resembles very much Night Cup in its rules and structure but has a bit longer time to finnish. The matches will be played on Saturday and Sunday evening.

All team members should have citizenship of the nation in question, but we are willing to make exceptions and each case is handled seperately. Also, we would like to see strong national teams recruiting payers outside one clan. This is not forced but strongly recommended.

The website will be opened soon as minor adjustements have been done, which is probably by tomorrow.

After the seventh ENSL seasons we will arrange also Gathercup(s), which we would like to see bring new players into the competitive scene. In the very near future, we will also try to set up an ENSL public server by donations. More news about this will be posted soon.
