"Hello.
/topic/at/313949/
Due to the upcoming interportal event, we need to form a team from our World resource.
Please name 10 of our best players who are ready to defend it in games against Bye, Portal, and League of Heroes.
/topic/3521/
Here are the seasonal rankings; you can use them when selecting players.
You can vote either openly in the interportal topic or send your answer to me via ICQ. The results will be published later.
Also, please copy the post and send it to your friends because I don't know all the players on World. Only online players can vote."
I sent it to those I remembered, but unfortunately, I don't know everyone, so I probably forgot someone, and some people might have received it unnecessarily.
If I forgot anyone, please don't take offense, but vote for me via ICQ (in private) or here on the forum. I'll count the votes. 12 people have already voted, and I'm sure there will be many more.
Next. The question arose about participating in the League of Heroes; two coordinators – Neo and Vic – strongly advocated for their participation in the interportal event, and I support this.
It would be great if veterans like Yama-Dharma, PREDs, DVSranger, etc., under the leadership of Alexey Dust, joined the team... a good team could emerge, IMHO, we wouldn't regret it.
Regarding the participation of a foreign resource. I asked around; SAG rarely appears on ICQ, so the issue is pending.
As an option, let's maintain contact with the Chinese resource; yes, it's technically difficult to play with them, but it would definitely create excitement.
And the most challenging question. I'm talking to Vic on ICQ; the conversation isn't secret, and Vic doesn't object to us resolving this issue.

Question 3. From you, as a basic TE-Lite version.
You will play on CM maps; our guys will find it difficult to play on XL 8 maps.
And here, it's pure TE.
IMHO, TE_Lite is still acceptable, and we can negotiate.

1. Positive
2. Push Sag
3. We only have TE-Full 8mm6.
In general, Neo and I also talked. It's difficult to play against Bye even on CM maps with SOD.
Add to that an XL map and the standard 8 template. And finally, add full TE. This gives Bye 4 points right away.
Neo wrote that they won't play under these conditions. I support him.
Of course, we need to maintain good relations with Bye, but in my opinion, our maximum concession is an XL map, the 8mm6 template, and TE-Lite.
Frankly speaking, without sufficient practice, we won't be able to find 4 people who can compete meaningfully with their top players under these conditions: we'll lose, but at least we'll have some chances.
We cannot concede more; otherwise, the match loses its meaning.
I ask the World players, especially the members of AK, to discuss this issue and develop a consistent, well-considered position.
Sincerely.
