    [spoiler=Registration][B]This is for community registration, NOT spinner registration. Contact your local community for more info on how to make the team.[/B] The World Cup 2012 is an international team pen spinning tournament. The goal of the tournament is to determine the team who excels the most in all aspects of pen spinning. The tournament will begin in January and finish in May or June. The length of the tournament will depend on the number of teams registered. For 8 teams, it will take 5 months. For 16 teams, it will take 6 months. If the number of teams is between 8 and 16, there will be a qualification round using collabs, as it was done for 2010. The format and rules will be similar to WC2010, except the themes will be simplified. More details to come at the end of the summer. ----------- [B]How to register[/B] Requirements: - Be able to assemble a team of 6, [B]world-class[/B], spinners - Have a manager who is good at English (can be part of team or judge) - Provide at least two [B]competent[/B] judges, who understand the rules very well - Able to translate the rules for the community [B]IMPORTANT![/B] If your community alone is not able to satisfy these conditions, we invite you to ally yourself with other communities to form a single team. Send your registration to [EMAIL="[email protected]"][email protected][/EMAIL] with: - List of good spinners with example video links - Number of judges available - Contact information for manager [B]You do not have to form your team during registration. Final lineup is only submitted right before tournament begins.[/B] Registration deadline is: November 1st, 2011 (subject to changes)[/spoiler] ----------- Information The tournament starts [B]January 14th, 2012[/B] (14-01-2012). 16 teams will be divded into 4 groups of 4. ----------- Rulebook Draft v2 PDF: http://worldps.org/wc12/files/wc12rules.pdf DOC: http://worldps.org/wc12/files/wc12rules.doc Please translate. ----------- Registered teams [B](Received lineups)[/B]: [B]UPSB[/B] [B]SPSB[/B] [B]PSH[/B] [B]LPSA[/B] [B]FPSB[/B] [B]PPP[/B] [B]IPSB[/B] [B]GPC[/B] [B]HKPSA[/B] [B]TWPS[/B] [B]PPSC[/B] [B]THPSC[/B] [B]JEB[/B] [B]BRPSB[/B] [B]KZPSC[/B] [B]KMSC (SPSC/MYPSC/KPSA)[/B]

    So, making a team when there are not enough spinners in the community on world class is allowed? Nice You'll see me then in the WC12, Stronger and better than the WT Bhahahahahaha

    It's not @fang ._______. You have to ally with another community and combine your forces in order to participate.

    GOOOO UPSB :D if there is a qualification collab, how will they be judged, and how will judges' votes be counted (WC10 vote counting method was a bit 'dodgy' imo, higher percentage of judges thought UPSB was in top 8, but HKPSA got in instead) and 'competent judges' <-- LOL

    It's a combo of moderator discretion/public voting. Maybe a tournament to help streamline things a bit. Who's to judge whether a community can field 6 world-class spinners?

  11. AoD1
    Date: Sat, Jul 16 2011 00:30:15

    the key words in the sign up thread was "world class" and Im pretty sure those words negate the entry of upsb.

    Im not gonna bother translating, but i bet thats just a list of their good spinners, not their lineups. Following what [forgot who] said, if UPSB considers kirua to be a good spinner also, kirua has the choice of going to either board.

    As you probably know, taichi, there haven't been any signups at all. You have to send a video of a couple of clips to be able to participate for GPC. And I haven'T done so, yet.

  51. Pudels Kern
    Date: Fri, Sep 23 2011 10:42:21

    GPC is not deciding who gets into the team yet. We are just collecting clips for the registration. @Zombo

    - List of good spinners with example video links
    Are there any criteria for the example videos? Do you need more than one combo per spinner? Does it have to be new material or can the video be like 6 months old?

  52. browndog12

    not really, its more useful for unknown spinners to prove they're good

    Hey Zombo I would like to make a question. If a board is not satisfying the condition about creating a 6 world-class spinners team, what should happen? I mean, is our duty as a community finding another board without 6 spinners or should we register knowing forehand we will not have 6 spinners and waiting for another community to do the same in order to ally? Thanks in advance ;3

    you should ally beforehand if possible, you can email us to say you're missing X spinners, then we try to find another community but its possible not all the missing communities will try to contact us.

    I see. Thanks a lot. Then I think I'm going to try and find another community with the same problem, but I doubt we find it...before 11/1. Anyway, I'll tell you the decision via e-mail, Zombo. Let's see what happens in the end. Btw if someone reads this and his community has not 6 world-class spinners, please contact me. Thanks :) @DArKT: Meh...it's difficult.

    So, we need 2 teams to complete registration?

    ideally yes because then we have 16 teams, perfect number otherwise we need a qualification round (using collab video)

    Hi! I'm Kipple in KPSA. Unfortunately, KPSA will not participate in WC2012 because KPSA's representative spinners(Nia,Crew,Skydigital,etc.) are almost high student seniors or person that are busy to do another business. See you next year, WC2013.. :(

    if you tell me 100% you'll register, then I write your community down right now. its very important that I know whether we have 16 teams or not

    SPSC/MYPSC want to register but seems they're looking for spinners anyway i'm pretty sure we got 16 teams, so we can avoid qualification round

    hmm, i'm interested to see who the 6 'world class' spinners from KZPSC are O__o" nice to see that upsb will compete though, just hoping that the high standards expected from WC/WT in previous years won't be compromised by allowing more teams to compete -.-

    Go BRPSB and SPSC! The Spanish and Brazilian are our community's brothers in CLPSA Maybe next WC we can enter, cause we still a new board, so we don't have many spinners or spinner with a great level This year will be a lot of teams with great spinners, and maybe new surprises this year

    small update to include a rule about the double match. it is not allowed for both spinners to film at the same time in the same place. this rule was created for WC10 and is still in effect. it is ok to film in the same place, as long as the spinners film separately.

[/QUOTE] Why? I don't see why two spinners who live near each other could meet to spin a combo together? It is much more complicated and hard work to do this since the transissions are very hard to do and TWO spinners have to spin a fawless combo, which could lead to a much longer filming-time. Jopi and Minwoo did so once and I see no point why this should be forbidden! Please explain this rule!

    This is because this will take a disavantage for the other 2 spinners. Who don't live near echother. Cuz the spinners who live near eachother will take more points for sure!~

    its a rule that was made for WC 2010. this is an online tournament so its fair for other teams that cannot have two people in the same room. it is still possible to reproduce many effects by having the two spinners in the same room, as long as they film themselves separately. in other words, as long as we dont see both spinners in the same screen using same camera, its ok. Split-screen stuff is OK. edit: the double rule is currently put to vote by the managers of each community

  130. Zombo
    Date: Wed, Nov 30 2011 21:16:49

    double video rule has been rejected by vote from the communities. teams are free to agree to use the rule for a given match if they choose to do so.
