Hey everyone!

Over the past few weeks there have been a lot of posts, conversations, threads, and more all talking about the Community League. This post is meant to put all the key information in one place, and help explain what the league is. Here are the answers to a few questions I get asked pretty regularly.

Why did we make the Community League?

Wargaming recently announced that all eSports for 2018 are cancelled, which left a lot of players with nothing left to do. Numerous teams and players wanted a place to compete against other organized, skilled teams. So, with the efforts of an incredible community behind us, a group came together to create a fair, fun, and competitive environment to keep our eSports spirit alive.

How does it work?

Although we have some small rule changes to make things work for us, we follow the same general rules of the old WGLNA. The format is 7/70 (7 tier X tanks) with 10 players per team. All maps are Attack/Defense format, and the matches are a best of 9, which means first to 5 wins. The season's length will depend on how many teams register, because there will be two round robins followed by a playoff. A round robin is a format in which every team faces every other team once. A full rulebook is here (https://docs.google....dit?usp=sharing)

How can we help?

Every day I get PMs from people asking how they can help. The easiest way to help by far is simply spread the word. Beyond that, you can come to our Discord (https://discord.gg/BtVBn6c) to get information from the admins faster, and talk with the players, captains, and staff. If you're feeling particularly generous, we have a GoFundMe campaign set up to raise money for prizes (https://www.gofundme...y-league-prizes). Any contribution, no matter how small, whether it be 1 more viewer on our stream or 1 more dollar in the prize pool, is greatly appreciated!

Who's running it?

Right now the admin team consists of Poi_Qt, Mashirasou, Tanks__, and Ruukil. There are also quite a few other people involved in helping make the league happen These people are listed as Contributors in the Discord server. Special thanks to every one of them! We're also happy to be working with mpank from GosuTactics.com to make registration, standings, and schedule all easy to see and use!

How do we join?

Registration is done through GosuTactics.com at the link here (http://gosutactics.c...ng-2018-season/). Simply log in using your WoT account, and either join a team with the password your captain gave you or create your own!

When does it start?

Registration ends on Friday the 23rd, and the first match night is Monday the 26th. Yes, this is later than our original start date of the 19th. Since we moved everything to GosuTactics.com recently, we decided to give an extra week for teams to register again with GosuTactics, and give more time for the teams that recently joined in to fully form.

What about 1.0?

When the 1.0 update comes out we'll take a week off from the matches and change the map pool to fit the available Attack/Defense maps.

How can I watch?

Starting on Monday the 26th, every Monday and Wednesday the matches are at 9 PM Eastern. You can come watch the stream at (https://www.twitch.t...communityleague). Every view counts!

Hopefully this helps everyone get a better idea of what the WoT Community League is about. If you have any more questions, feel free to PM me or drop them in the thread below. Good luck, and happy tanking!
