IGN Prime Tournament Start Delayed Until October 5th
Due to issues with registration ending early, we've moved the start date for the IGN Prime Tournament to October 5th, 2011. This should allow for additional time for teams to get their members organized and ensure team registration is working properly.
On our end, we've received many support tickets and messages from players concerned about entry into the tournament. Response has been overwhelming for the tournament so far, so we're going to be increasing the number of allowed teams from 64 to 128.
If your team is already entered into the tournament, then rest assured -- your team is accepted. We will not be excluding teams until we reach the cap of 128.
Registration will officially end at 11:59PM PDT on October 4, 2011.
Teams are allowed to have between 5 and 7 members, though only 5 can participate in a battle. If you have below or above this number, you will not be able to apply for approval in the tournament. Please apply for approval once all changes are made, before the close of registration today.
Once registration closes, we will begin accepting teams. This is a manual process that we will carry out after the close of registration.
