Tried my best to cater for different timezones, will be more flex cups in the future.
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?
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.
I appreciate the effort Ipkai, I've said in other threads that you're possibly the person doing the most for CoH2 in the community today.
Re:Timezones. I'm involved in the 2v2 flexicup, but even so when matched against opponents far away, eg. in Poland, there's very few times that cross-over for me and my partner. Even though we can arrange a time that suits, this usually means my partner has to get up at 5am to game or I have to stay up late etc.
Re: awareness of the tournaments. GR used to have a really good frontpage for CoH which got news out there. They have since changed it. But it used to have all the recent news in little boxes as the frontpage. CoH2 has that scroll bar thing at the top that dictates what you see, most the time I'm here I don't scan all the three word updates for more info. There are so many updates (6 in the last 11 days) and so few apply to me (world builder tip of the week etc) that I can't be bothered selecting each one to find out more. The coh2.org site itself is generally hard to navigate I find and so I often find myself just clicking the top 5 threads in the bottom corner. I hope people don't take this as any sort of attack on the site, just constructive criticism and why I find I don't know about many events - even patch notes when they come around.
Re: Difficulty of process. I appreciate the offer. I'm sure there is a reason for it (breaking new ground on the esports front?), but it seems that tournaments are a lot more complicated of a processes than in the past. In the past, you'd sign up on your fansight - eg. GR, then they release the brackets and at the time of play you message the person and game. It's possible the problem is that I don't play in enough tournaments to get familiar with the modern processes.
