I've sent a PM to all of the clans who have been eliminated from CM:TFS so far, and will also include the losers of the Play-Off Stage once it is completed, inviting them to participate in The Wooden Chopsticks event.
This will be run similar to the Nations Cup Wooden Spoon stage, just some fun friendly games from the 'non-pro' teams, so that we can all continue to enjoy this tournament.
Exact settings are to follow, as they will depend on the number of clans who choose to participate. Clans may add/change up to 2 players in their roster, while still keeping total numbers below 10, to ensure that teams are able to schedule effectively.
Sign ups will close 30th July, with Round 1 of whatever format we go with starting on the 1st August. If there are enough teams I will try to organise some sort of reward for the winning team(s).
Thanks
