    Hello UPSB
    As some of you already know there have been rumors about a Global Team Tournament.
    And this is the place where all the rumors come true biggrin.gif
    After the great success of the UPSBTT /sarcasm I have decided to open a Global Team Tournament.

    Just for fun- have 1 member send in a combo from each team so we can make a promo collab for the tournament smile.gif
    Doesn't have to be world class or anything, but just to get people more motivated biggrin.gif


    This is how it is going to work:
    10-20 teams can participate (I know it's a lot but bear with me)
    Each team can needs to have 5 main spinners and can have up to 4 subs.
    Each team MUST have a manager that can contact me or my assistants (will be explained later).
    Each team must be able to submit their vids on time, this time- I won't be as forgiving as I was on the UPSBTT and I will kick teams that won't be able to send videos on time!!!
    I would like to add that this is going to be a global team tournament that will take on the very best teams of the world (Vengeance and maybe even Genesis) so please sign in only if you think you stand a chance. I know this is a very arrogant request but I am aiming at inviting the very best teams there are.

    About the judging- I know this is tricky, but this time we'll try to use Zombo's system from the Wiki.
    It will be subjected to changes and you will get the final version after I have finished going through it.

    I am searching for people for 2 main things:
    1. Judges! I need at least 10 judges if not more. Please contact me if you would like to judge, you need to have a substantial amount of experience in pen spinning. Judging experience is a bonus.
    2. I need people to connect me to the communities all around the world. Because I'm not as popular (XD) as other spinners- I need people with connections in communities like FPSB,JEB and others to spread the world and make this tournament realy global biggrin.gif
    Please contact me via
    MSN:[email protected]
    Gmail:[email protected]

    Technical details about the tournament:
    The tournament will have some special themes like Doubles and other things I'm trying to think of.
    The tournament will start at July 14th (14.7)
    Every round will consist of- 3 days to send in your lineups (maybe 4) 1.5 weeks of filming
    Followed by 1 week of judging
    All of these are subject to change.

    Please post here your questions and also your suggestions.

    I will tell JEB about this, and manage teams etc. Best teams? Hmmmm.....Genesis(Eriror, Vicgotgame etc.), Vengeance(Minwoo, Stuhl etc.), Forever Spin(12ve, X1213 etc.), Darkness Spinners(Spinnerpeem, Supawit127 etc.), Evolving Spinners(Toro, Makoto etc.), Firm Determination of spin(MinI, PenSOn etc.), Dancing Spinners(Potage, MaKiN etc.), eXeed Vision(ViTaMiN, Casino etc.). I think :/

    Uh, ten judges is way too much. You'll be having problems with submissions on time.

    I talked to frip about this before, but I think it was global (as you mentioned), and there were going to be 2 divisions, competitive (VNG, Genesis) and non competititive (ECS, YR) etc.

    eh...you do know that it doesn't go by the UPSB teams right? some of the people listed here don't even care about their UPSB team, just in there for no reason.
    Based on what i know, 12ve is in my team, Eriror is not in with Genesis, Spinnerpeem and supawit127 will be busy with Thai Tournament

    @AyySoLo - Peem's team didn't participate the THPSC Team Tournament, means that they might not busy. I'll tell them about this tournament, see if they might got interest

    @Kuro - Yes, Eriror is in Genesis, everyone knows that. But he will participate with his own team "Pyroclasm" (Right, Eriror ? biggrin.gif)

    10-20 teams can participate (I know it's a lot but bear with me)

    I just want to ask,if there are more than expected amount of teams joining the competition,

    how would you choose which team in,which out?

    (Sorry my English is bad,hope you can get the meaning tongue.gif )

    Good question smile.gif
    I want to have the best teams, so ideally I'll filter by level, but it will be hard doing that alone.
    So, what I think I'll do is just let the first 20 teams participate unless I see that some of those teams that joined are realy low level.
    I know it's harsh but I stated that in the topic.

    Quick update:
    So far there are 3 confirmed teams, I have saved 2 spots for teams that told me they still need to work on their lineups and 1 more for a team coming from KPSA that Joshy said will join.
    That makes 6 teams so far.
