So, the problem is essentially with the organizers), not the players—people were ready to play and enter the premiere. Only 10 people were on the HP (Heroes Portal), and 2 dropped out, while 30 people were competing for a spot + from the HP Cup you could also get into the premiere, and then the 8th place would also drop out if the cup was won by someone not in the top 8. The idea is very cool and doable, it's just a matter of the organizers, really :). I ran one of the cup seasons on HP, and here on HeroesWorld I helped judge and ran some tournaments together with Zloy). But I'll say, you're taking on a lot, and sometimes you get sick of all kinds of crap that comes to you on ICQ nonstop, plus everything takes time. And you try to do everything on time, but sometimes someone doesn't finish their games, you go out of your way to accommodate them and give someone an extension, and then some experienced fighters shower you with abuse because the draw wasn't made exactly on the minute. (Everyone who has judged or is judging will understand me). By the way, there was a good tournament — All for One. Looks like we lost it, which is a shame — it was played for a long time. And that's because of the organizer problem. First, you need to get organizers, and they should change every season so they can rest. People will play both in seasonals, elimination tournaments, and such premieres can be arranged.
