GamesCom just ended and I have been there on all five days, which gave me the possibility to take many pictures. I uploaded some of them on photobucket and if you're interested in it, feel free to check them out:

General informations:
In the ClanBase NationsCup each European nation (more information in "Nations") can choose a captain, who decides about the players that will play for their country. It's like soccer, e. g. European Championship. At first we have some groups and the top two or three teams of each group continue in the playoffs and fight to win the cup.

Gametype:
All matches will be played 4on4 TeamDeathMatch.

Nations:
Every Europe, Russian and Israeli team is allowed to participate in the NationsCup. All other countries need a exception, therefore they should contact the Cupsupervisors or me first, so I can ask the managers of the NationsCup. It's not allowed, that two countries form one team.

Captains:
Every player is able to signup as Captain of his nation (and only of his REAL nation). The job of the Captains is to select the best players of their countries for the cup and, during the cup, to organize trainings and games for his nation. You can find more information about the Captain election by clicking on this link: http://clanbase.ggl.com/news.php?nid=306665 (scroll down a bit).

Supervisors:
The Cupsupervisors are cotto and urede4d and I'm the Gamesupervisor. The best way to contact us, is to use Private Messages (PM) on the ClanBase system.
