ET Nations Cup finished

image: NC-logo-2


Who would of thought that at the very beginning of this idea to bring another Nations Cup to ET would be such a big success and showing that we still have that activity to pull something like that and on what scale!

When i first started off with random one day cups over weekends it felt like that was the thing this game definitely needed and we have seen a lot of players making their come backs to enjoy yet again some quality games with their mates on the battlefields, but that was simply not enough and i wanted something more, something greater and i thought to myself, why not give NC a try and see how it would end up.
As crazy as the idea sounded, i was very surprised by initial response from community and fast forward we are at the end of succesful run of tournament with a lot of exciting games behind us.

The grand finale of the Nations Cup took place yesterday between Netherlands Netherlands and Finland Finland where even the third time this tournament, Finland was unable to win against the Dutchies and we had in total 375 viewers spectating the game, which is definitely amazing number for ET at this time.

Was fun. What's next?
Thank you I enjoyed it; brought me back from a 5-year hiatus!
Hey Aniky, I would like to thank you once more on behalf of the Dutch team for your efforts during the last two months. I would also like to congratulate yourself with running a very smooth tournament. I can imagine it takes a lot of responsibility to host such tournaments by yourself, but I hope in the end it was worth it. The introduction of discord for captains is what really helped this tournament

Personally, it’s been a bliss playing ET in a serious competitive way again. The preparation for each match was exciting and I’m proud our nation managed to win this tournament undefeated.

Favorite match? Chile Chile vs United Kingdom United Kingdom (also one of my lifetime favorites)
Biggest surprise? United States of America USA

Most players from NL will take a break and enjoy the sunny days that this summer has to offer. But sooner or later, we will be back :)
Also a thank you to Team NL, but you in particular Sebhes for getting more of the dutch community involved with tryouts. I think it helped boost activity in the game globally. At least for me, since i found some people to play with again.

Enjoy your holiday guys;p

Thanks for organizing this. I haven't really followed any game but it was nice to see some activity. Other than that and in all modesty, I would put myself as the best member of the executive board since for the first time in its story France makes it to the top 5 World. Coincidence ? I don't think so.
