We have -15°C in the morning and -10°C during the day, but the forecast for the next weekend is -8°C to -4°C. It's quite tolerable, there's nothing to be afraid of. The selection process will take place as planned, from February 25th to 27th. It starts at 10:00 AM. Please let me know who is coming and when, preferably on the forum. We also need to determine who is still considering participating, as we already have our first dropout – it's Markon. Moscow has scheduled their selection for the same dates, so the choice is obvious.
The basic location will be the club, the same one as last year. If we have up to 8 people, I'll look for suitable accommodation for gaming, so we don't have to sit on sofas with our laptops.
There are 5 days left until the tournament, so tomorrow, February 21st, please let me know by the end of the day if you are still considering participating, and those who have signed up should confirm their participation.

Expenses:
1) Club - 40 UAH * 3 days = 120 UAH.
2) Accommodation - 60-80 UAH * 2 days = 120-160 UAH.
3) Food - 100-120 UAH * 3 days = 300-360 UAH
4) Cultural program - this depends on your appetites and possibilities; there is no specific plan. We'll decide on the spot what to do and where to go.

The votes on experience and tax were split 4 to 4, but since everyone still wanted to adapt WT to SoD somehow, I'm disabling this nonsense.
The game will have a bank, there will be classes, there will be no morale and GS (Greater Skill). Also, the orb and cloak are disabled.

Restarts: 3 days in total, 2 days for Jebus, and for all other versions.
