CDZ Cup 10th Edition Sign-up Thread

[Shabbaman]

For everyone who missed the discussion thread, it's here. This start post has shamelessly been ripped from previous editions.

Welcome at the 10th edition of the CDZ Cup. We are now open for registration for the Cup which is scheduled to start after the 7th league game has been played in the HT season, resulting in 9 games total to be played in the CDZ Cup this time. Depending on discussions and amount of participants, the actual starting date may vary to either a later or earlier point in time.

I am listing the people that are invited, please confirm your participation here or by HT-mail to Kemal or me. Anyone from CDZ or CFC is invited, just list your name and team in this thread and you are in. For those that were so rude to post their application in the discussion thread, your participation might be taken into consideration.

I am going to repeat here the rules of the competition as well :
* You need to have an active team in Hattrick ;
* You need to register by listing your name and team in this thread by 29-9-2006; there is no limit on the number of participants;
* The games will be played as (international) friendlies and booked accordingly in Hattrick ;
* Challenges can be issued by any of the two teams scheduled to play a game as soon as allowed ;
* Challenges should be accepted by Sunday evening ;
* If a game is not arranged by Sunday evening, the team having issued the challenge is allowed to start searching for another friendly. ;
* The deadline for setting up a match is Monday 23:59 GMT. After the deadline, the team in default will lose the game 5 – 0. If a team decided to wait until monday to accept, it is at its own risk if the opposition has then already arranged another friendly. Please make sure to arrange the matches during the weekend latest, as you'll surely understand, we can't afford teams to lose training! ;
* The first stage will be a league stage and games will be played as ‘normal’ friendlies ;
* The following stages will be knock-out stages and will be played as friendlies ‘with Cup rules’ ;
* The purpose of the Cup is to give every team 9 friendly games, there is no elimination from the cup and everybody plays until the end ;
* The first *(still to be decided on exact composition and thus amount of teams per group, will be edited later)* teams in each group will qualify for several knock-out stages and one of them will be the Cup winner;
* Teams that have not finished in the top *(still to be decided on exact composition and thus amount of teams per group, will be edited later)* in the league stage will still qualify to the knock-out stages which will determine their final ranking in the Cup ;
* The makeup of each group will be drawn when the exact format of the Cup has been agreed upon and will be finalized. ;
* There will be no rebalancing of the home/away games in the knock-out stages ;

3. Krys athletic (kryszcztov)

Got my name right, but... athletic ? I ain't running a club for javelin throwers. [chickenpizza]

[Shabbaman]

Hmmz. Well, that's what I could remember, and I learned to copy paste your name a long time ago. But you know, athletic de bilbao, atletico madrid, you name them, they're not really athletic clubs either. And admit it, there's a lot more athletics in the olympics than football.

[tofra]

My team has changed name to FC. Duckstad.. :-) I don't know if thats the cause of being 7th (and last) in my division, or because 7th division is to high for me.. :-)

Hear, hear, trying to make me regret my club name. Uh, that's because my football players are so tough that they could even pwn decathlonians at the Olympics.
