ok, i have a couple questions about "the cup."

first, does it start at the same time as the upcoming league or after the next league?

second, who gets into the cup?

third, sprint is on.....

i just thought of another question, will it be like american teams on one side of the brackets and european teams on the other or will it be mixed?

also, how will seedings be determined or will it just be random?

another thing, only 14 teams were in the league for the american side, how will the other two teams be determined to get in?

one final thing, when are the changes to sprint, mentioned in another thread, going to be put into db?

Europe and America will be mixed in the championsleague.
The first 4 teams of the EU and AM 1st division AND the 2 winners of the continent cups will play an international cup.

The other cup is runnig separately, limited to the continents.

Matches will be random.
Teams from league 3 or lower will always have a home game against teams from 2nd or 1st division.
The final will be played in 2 matches, one homegame for each.

Sprint changes will be put in as soon as 1.7 is out :D
(dont ask)

IMO you should wait to start the cup untill 1.7 is out so the sprint changes are in there.

i know that 20 american teams are signed up but how will the bottom 2 spots be determined because only 14 were signed up for the qualification leagues.

Sweet, so even me and my buds who came in probably close to last (but had a blast thanks to all of you who treated us with respect and not as n00bs) will still get a chance for the cup?

FactorVIII played in the Qualification, right? I guess there's no problem then :)

what if the cup winner is also under the first 4 EU teams? will 2nd placed (in cup) gain a championsleague place?

And will there be a game for 3rd place in every cup?

then the next team in cup will take the place (the 2nd finalist, or if that ones among the top4 too the 3rd...and so on)
