timezones
Tried my best to cater for different timezones, will be more flex cups in the future.
2) Lack of advertising, many tournaments don't get properly promoted. I had no idea that their was a sign up today.
what more could I do on the promotion front? I've advertised on every major coh site, is there any thing else I could do?
3) Complicated sign up and coordination processes. A lot of tournaments require you to sign up with another site, track down a section of that site, register with a tournament on that section, find the contact details of the player/team you are to be facing, add them, organise a time to play across timezones, etc. Even same day tournaments can often rely on the players doing a lot of the work to figure out who they are playing and how to get in touch with them. This is doubly as hard with opponents who are "less skilled" at being communicative and making contact.
If you're having that much difficulty open a ticket and ask the tournament admins for help or even send me an email or contact me on steam.
