With TG hosting the tourney site, I have access to computing and server power that just previously wasn't possible. This means tons of cool new features rolling out in the near/far future. The only thing different is you'll log in with a TG account instead of the account you had to make on the tourney site in the past.

I just hope I can figure out how to log in to the TG site before registration closes!!

That's me registered then.

Any team captains looking for someone to place 16th on a maze game everyone else hates, you know where to find me

Can I just throw in two little things?

1. TG registration required

I've had nothing but high praise for Wes's site and Wolfie's get-up-and-go spirit, and if they've decided this is the way forward then it's all good IMO. I can't help feeling, though, that there may some be folk who played in last year's Yolympics, or some folk who aren't big fans of TG (or indeed are actively hostile towards it

) who might be a bit disgruntled with this. I hope we don't lose too many.

2. Number of teams

Assuming this contest has higher participation than last year's, might it be an idea to have a couple more teams? I'm not volunteering to be a captain again this year, just thinking that if we have more than 100 sign-ups (there are 30-odd already in the first 24 hours) that's a pretty unwieldy amount of players per team.

Anyway, looking forward to it all as usual!

wes and I actually discussed about adding more teams but decided against it due to the fact some people might signup and not even bother playing

Just to clarify, there will be four teams for this event just like last year.

Oh, no worries

A rumor had gotten around there would only be 2 teams this year and I just wanted to clear that up
