The deadline is over.

I see that the amount of interesm among the JJ2 clans is so low that they even refuse to sign up for a proper Clan Tournament. I'm kind of disappointed, to be honest.
Well, since this plan ain't working out, I have to come up with another idea to save the day. The CTF Cup kind of turned into a joke, since only a lousy 3 clans bothered to sign up for it, so that's out of question already. Because of the current so-called "Team Battle Hype", I guess it would be fun to host something with this gametype.

My suggestion (also inspired by R3ptile) is to hold a Clan Cup for Team Battle after all, but with 5 clans instead of 6. Normally, I would've divided those 6 clans over 2 poules, but now I'll put them all in one poule. It will be a Single Competetion cup, which makes a total of 10 matches. After this poule, there will be a playoff phase (#1 vs. #4, #2 vs. #3) and then a final and 3rd/4th place match - which makes a total of 14 matches, played in about 2 months, I think.

On the other hand, I could host a 3vs3/2vs2 TeamBattle Cup where people can select their own teams. In this way we would probably get more teams, but it's not a Clan Tournament anymore.

In short, thgis concept fails, but there are a few alternative paths we may choose. I'd like to hear some comments.

NOTE: The TB Mappool will probably be revised since some new maps have been published recently which are worth playing.
