The last RC was for under 1800 players,
where 36 players from 800 to 1800 got to play.
This tourny was purposely set up to have
a higher rated field of players participate.

Attention:
Registration ends tomorrow Feb 28 @ 2400 EST
(0500 UTC time Mar 1st, - approx. 36 hours from now)
The Draft will commence 8 hours later at 1300 UTC on March 1st.
Captains -
Please read Post #4 above to familiarize yourselves with the team formation and draft process here:
https://forum.faforever.com/topic/5400/rainbow-cup-vi-3v3-1-500/4
Especially regarding the first round draft process, listed again here:
Team Draft Process
Round 1 of draft:
Draft starts with the 8th seeded Captain and
continues sequentially up thru ALL 8 Captains.
When it is a Single Captains turn to draft, he may:
choose ANY player in the draft pool,
whether or not the combined team total is >4.1K.
When it is a 2 player Team Captain's draft turn,
he has TWO options:
1: He may "Pass" and Keep his Pre-Draft registered partner, or
2: He may "Trade" his Pre-Draft registered partner and
----------"Draft" - ANY player in the draft pool.
The traded player is Immediately placed into the draft pool.
.
.
As of now... it looks like there will be 10 players drafted
to make up the 24 players needed to form 8 teams of 3.
Example of "possible" draft sequence:
Team #8 Captain "may" trade his pre-draft pick and
draft a different player from the draft pool.
His current playing partner would be placed in the draft pool.
After the 2 other single captains draft a player and
the 5 other captains who signed up with a teammate either:
"Pass" and retain their current partner, or
trade their current player and draft a "new" playing partner.
We will then move onto round#2 of the draft.
Where captains draft their 3rd team player, and
Team #8 Captain may even draft his original partner back onto his team :)~
Captains are also strongly advised to contact their prospective draftee,
before officailly drafting them on March 1st, to:
Make sure they are still available, and committed to play on March 11,12+18.
Captains and team members are also encouraged to recruit others to register,
if they would prefer them, to the current pool of draftee's,
to possibly draft them instead.
(as long as some other team - doesn't draft them first)
Once the draft has commenced -
The process can Not be retarded back to your pick and
you must wait until the end of the that particular current draft round,
if someone drops out during the draft.
At the end of the current draft round, where a player drops...
you will be able to draft another player,
before moving on to the next draft round.
(Please... don't drop out, it complicates things, and causes imbalances)
Players in the draft pool - do not have option to turn down a draft selection, and
must either join team or resign from the tournament.
The draft will take place on the rainbow-cup-vi discord channel here:
