30P's first cup is over, and even thou it had it some hiccups it was a success considering all the experience all involved cup admins gained from it, and all the exciting matches it offered.

26 teams signed up for the tournament and many interesting names were in the contender list. Big names like 3k2, fetish, kaja, haunted and  many  more was to play in the same tournament as people we knew never had participated in a cup ever before. Our hopes for this cup were that new teams would surface and get in the world of playing cups and tournaments.

Unfortunately the structure of a cup only allows for either 16, 32, 64, or 128 teams and we had 26 teams that wanted to play. For that reason we decided to quickly
build a group stage so that all teams could play and they could at least play 3 matches. This decision caused both disappointment and frustration from some teams
since it caused a delay of almost one hour and that it would extend the whole event by atleast 4 hours.

But despite both server problems and other delays we are still extremely happy that we decided to host this cup. We have learnt so much and of course we will
improve next time.

We have invested in a new tourney system that is being developed right now which wil make this kind of events a lot easier to host. First of all it will not be necessary
to register at two separate websites and all information about matches and results will be accessible from your personal profile. You will get information about upcoming
competitions as well as info on what competitions your friends sign up for.

In the future we will be much more informative on what rules apply to the tournament and what is needed to be done before you can play.
We would like to thank all the teams that showed so much professionalism despite the delays and last minute changes - you never whined once and you kept your focus all the way
to the final.

All prizes will be sent during next week and the cup administration will contact all the winners by email, so make sure that you have entered correct contact information
on 30P.se/community. We require that all of the players in respective team to be registered, not only the one receiving the prizes.

Thank you and  see you next time
