I've got experience writing announcements and updates for the Master League. You can find a list of those posts here to get an idea of what yours would look like. An introduction to your liking — funny, serious, or something else — and then important tournament information. All this for not even a pretty penny!
I can also post on forums like Reddit and Steam to help you get the word out. If you'd like, announcements can also be made on coh2.org's official social media platforms such as the Discord server, Facebook page, Twitter, and Steam group. We'll get the word out!
Message me on Discord, Steam, here on .org, or just post below!
A high-quality and informative coh2.org tournament announcement will include almost all of the items below:
- One art image of 850x252 pixels
- The art should have a logo and/or words to indicate what it is. Look to past posts on coh2.org for an idea of what these banners look like.
- Tournament details like
- Who is running the tournament? You, an individual? A clan?
- Who can sign up (invitation only? Certain ranks?)
- How to sign up (via Discord? Replying to the announcement post? In a separate coh2.org thread?)
