Championships used to get major announcement.
I missed the qualifier, will there be more slot for the 1vs1 championships ?
I have no idea about banners, you probably need to ask BW.

There will be plenty of slots for the 1vs1 Championships Final. Sign-up will be open soon.

You said there would be more opportunities after that event? When did they take place, I didn't see any sign-ups?

I didn't say there would be more qualifying opportunities. I said there will be plenty of slots for the final and there will be. There will be slots for 128 players, with only 40 pre-qualified. Just sign up before it fills when it's posted.

The 1v1 Championship Qualifier was an auto-tournament and was posted in announcements.

The 1v1 Championship Final will be the same.

People are confused because announcement for the previous championships used to be big, you couldn't not know about it.
Those events were so minimally advertised that some of us completely missed the opportunity to join.

Feedback => make next qualifiers more visible


The 1v1 Championship Qualifier was an auto-tournament and was posted in announcements.
Can't find the link in the archived announcement or current announcement
https://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=1
https://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=634

EDIT:
After further searching I found it. Under announcement in the right column, but you have to click on the "More" button to see it.

But if qualifiers are already happening and I missed them, why would I care about the main event? My chance to compete is gone, I assume?

And some of them earned it twice, so should be in hight 30s that have the availability, and then 5 or so of those aren't playing anymore. So should be 100 some open spots.

lol, its probably groups, but yeah they should put that in the description for the auto tournament.
I would guess 32 5 player groups, and top 3 in each group move on too 2A, thats at least my guess for the first rounds.

Not a bad guess; There are 20 groups of 8, so 7 games per rounds for the first 3 rounds.

Hmm the math does not work, so top 4 in each group move to round 2A, then we are at 80, does like the best 16 of the 20 5th places also move on or something? weird, anyhow, looking forward to the 2024 championship, that will be played only in 2025 ;)

Hello! Reading through this thread, I can see some of the responses silly or lack any reading comprehension, so I understand it can be frustrating, but I'd like to ask a question.

Since the Championships auto-tournament has opened on Dec. 24th, only 7 of the pre-qualifiers have joined. Will there be a cutoff date where you open to the public early, despite all Ribbon holders not joining?

I feel the fact you went from 7 registered players to 18 1½ day after PMing them about the tournament being open shows a lot about the lack of publicity this event is getting
