i am surprised, that this castle seems to have a good enough connection, that it would in theory offer the chance for an event like this. the location seems to be connected to high speed internet and i guess they pay their bills, so they should expect to be able to use what they pay for. that...

imagine blaming the company, that propably did all they could to grant stable performance for the horrible internet stability we have in germany. edit for clarification: germany is absolutely horrible when it comes to digital infrastructure. we have wide areas where you will not get any...

chrazini now in charge of capture age aswell. this guy must be the most powerfull person in the entire age universe! on a more serious note: i found it confusing the first few minutes aswell, but it is quite easy to get used to, so no big deal imo.

there is only one reason the german authorities would not allow people from certain countries to enter the country and that is if a new corona mutation would take over in that country. and since there is not even knowledge about a new potentially more dangerous mutation of that virus, the...

in the current situation of aoezone, i would love for this forum to be closed for a week or two. the last few weeks have been absolutely terrible. We've had some pro players complaining about a tournament that may not be good for the growth of the community. But if someone outside of this...

i know you are trying to be sarcastic and funny, but this will just not happen. first reason: we will have our government elected end of september. there is no way the current geovernment is gonna take the risk of losing potential votes due to higher corona restrictions. second reason: the...

this is so full of bullshit, that i do not even know where to start. so i guess it is best to go through it from top to bottom: where do you feel like the event is poorly organized? communication regarding the event was really bad, but the qualifiers itself were organized as good or as bad as...

wow, quite a long post for almost nothing of it being actually true: actually true! but also it was basically the last chance for them. It was now or never before age 4 gets started. while that would be true for other tournaments it is not for this one. They took the results of the past 4 RB...

says the guy that seemingly didnt reed what i wrote. i never said that the invited players were mentioned. but that isn't even important for what you were trying to say. ofcourse there is a chance that due to covid some people might not want/be able to participate at the lan event. this hitting...

the announcement for the qualifier included the info, that there will be one qualifier only, and that two players will qualify. also the main event announcement was two days before the qualifiers took place. it included the infos, that it is a LAN event and that it will include 12 players. and...

i would like you to elaborate on this. how is following a hooby, be it online or offline, not comparable, if both things require a lot of time invested and profesionalism to perform it at a high level? i dont really understand this point. for most europeans winning 3000$ is worth way less...

since this topic is also about professionalism in aoe: no you dont. you keep ignoring, that switching up the games has a larger effect than only having 2 sets played at different times. the schedule is set trying to make sure, that every potential player of the next round has a similar pause...

sorry, but this is borderline ridiculous. let me give you an example: i was compeeting on very high level in an endurance sport for 5 years. since these competitions usually start early in the mornings (something between 7 and 10 am local time) it was very usual to get up between 3 and 5 am on...

since when does a lan event not require physical presence? on top of that we don't even know, if yo just had no chance to come to germany (i doubt that), or if he preferes not to come. but that doesnt even matter. if he could not come because of restrictions, you could compare it to an injured...

ok, missing a sign up is a thing that is personal resposbility. but what if we compare it to sports like for example tennis: we had tournaments where top 3 players did not participate due to covid restrictions, and we could also add injuries to that, since that often is not personal...
