King of the Hippo 7 is a tournament organized and sponsored by Nili_AoE.
All the games will be played as an 8-man-FFA king of the hill with WololoKingdoms.
The tournament will be held on the 16th and 17th of March. And will be streamed by Nili_AoE with different co-casters.
There will be 8 qualifiers. The winner will get a spot in the finals, in which the winner will receive (at least) $200.
You can sign up for the qualifiers here.
The qualifiers will be split into low and high.
High means that the 8 highest players (RM-1v1 + RM-TG ratings) signed up will be able to participate.
Low means that the 8 lowest players (at least 70 games on account) signed up will be allowed to participate.
A player can sign up for as many qualifiers as he/she wants but only play in one.

Streaming Policy
All the games will be streamed on http://www.twitch.tv/nili_aoe who is also guaranteeing the prize pool. Furthermore I want to test something new:
- Every streamer is allowed to stream
- 50% of all donations & bits are going into the prize pool (same for Nili_AoE)
- The relevant time is considered starting with the pre-game show and ends with the after show
- Every streamer should clearly state to his audience that streamers are working together to generate a prize pool (and that 50% of all donations/bits are going into it)
- The maximum a streamer has to pay is $100
- POV streams are not affected
- Most relevant casters have been informed of this before
