National captains

We again are using the voting system to elect national team captains. The system is very simple: Anyone who would like to apply as captain for his nation can fill in the short application form which appears on the menublock on the right hand side of each cup. Of course, you are still expected to gather enough support from the community - just instead of documented support, you will have to achieve it on the voting process on ClanBase.

The first stage for applying as captains will close on Sunday, 6th of January. The next stage will be the voting process - which will commence once the captains signups have closed. This section will end on Sunday, 13th of January. Any user is able to vote only one time for one candidate. The voting process is anonymous to ensure a safe election. In some cups we may close the signups a bit earlier if we see there are no new candidates and/or that a substantial amount of votes have been cast.

At the final stage the selected captain will be chosen by the cup supervisors with the help of the National Team Managers. They will be chosen according to the support (votes and comments), application and record of the applicant. Previous season captains don't get selected automatically and still have to apply. The captains announcement for each cup will be on Wednesday, 16th of January.

National Team Managers

We will again be cooperating with the National Team Managers this season. In case you are new or if you have forgotten already - the task of the National Team Manager is to maintain and establish a competitive list of squads which will participate in the NationsCups by monitoring the different captains, teams and acting as a link between the teams and the CB Crew where needed.

We are currently processing the applications we have received and will be adding a few new Managers in the course of next week. We are glad to see many have also stayed with us for yet another season after doing it successfully last time. You can see who is your own National Team Manager in here.

As last time, we will use only one clan for each nation this season as well. If you are elected as team captain - contact your team Manager to be added to the national clan.

National team players

The rules for who is allowed to play or not have not been majorly altered since the last season. Players are still only allowed to play for a nation if they have the nationality of it. We will take severe measures against any player, captain or team which have a hand in faking nationalities.

Like in the previous season, we have set the date for a clan to be considered as "active" for the 3 player rule to the first day of the OpenCup/EuroCup Fall Season. This year this date is: 8th of October 2012. More about the rule can be found in our NationsCups Rules FAQ.

Parent
Quote by NC RulesCan we have more than 3 players from the same active clan in our nationsteam?

The previous 3 player rule is no longer in effect. The new rule means that a National Team can select any team which consists of players from more than 1 clan.

Avi for team portugal cap!
Can USA/Canada be combined, or do they have to be separate teams?
USA and Canada are two different nations which have always had and always will have separate NC teams
Parent
Had to ask, never played in any NC before. How active is the US scene? Several players from the current RtCW cup are interested in playing.
Parent
not very active

feel free to idle at #america.et if you'd like
Parent
I'm on it. Thanks!
Parent
One of you should apply for captain then, nobody left in the US scene who are active enough to be a half decent captain.
Parent
Alea said he is dying to be the captain this NC.
Parent
easy for team switzerland, gl knejii :D
i think slick is still active, he was the last usa captain....also in regards to the comments of shaun being bad for team canada, its not all about the damage. He was a good spammy rifle player who didnt need to be babysat and told what to do, which is key with half the players in the canadian lineup. Sometimes its better to have someone who knows how to play the game then someone who plays frags only and is an idiot
gl who ever plays
