Team Spain is also participating, of course:

Enrique "kikeeeee" Navarro (captain)
Agustín "AgusBalin" Lozano
Manuel "Manuel" Cabezalí


Also, there are rumours of a second spanish team forming this year... :)

I agree with the arguments exposed by Bruce, but I guess that this is a matter of preferences. While all that stuff about possible interruptions is true, it is also true that the same players can agree to extend the time limit if someone was away from the computer for some reason (such as wife calli...

The 2-hour limit will at least stop me from wasting my time in a 3 hour game that could be played in 2 hours. And it gives me a reason to rush my opponent if I feel he's playing too slow. I'm happy with the measure.

Yes, 2 hour game is ok. And I agree with Balin that we need no judge for that.

I personally despise the experienced players that take 15 minutes for each of their organization phases, 5 minutes to think what to discard, and a long etc. For nOObs, I can understand, but for experienced players... It's completely unfair for the following reasons: 1 - One player consumes 80% of th...

After reading the whole thing, I think I agree with all of it. As Wolfgang said, we need to subdivide it on different topics, discuss each thing apart and form a team and decide who's doing what.

This is a more delicated issue than it seems. If cards/rules are to be changed, who will decide it? As we can see, there are several different opinions about what should be changed and how. This same discussion has been brought in the spanish Council of Rivendell forum; it seems like the metagame is...

I am not so sure that having the character at a haven is a requisite for playing the card. Maybe, helped by some interpretation, it's somehow implicit in the text of the card, but it's not worded that way. In the same fashion, it's not worded that you can't play it on a moving character. It only say...

Await the Advent of Allies

Lately there has been some discussion about this card, both in this forum and also in the spanish forum. Playable on a non-Wizard character with a mind of six or less.Character must stay at its current non-Havensite until you play a card at the site. Target character does not count against general i...

Long Dark Reach vs Stealth

Some discussion about this stuff has been brought to the meccg forums lately: http://www.meccg.net/dforum/viewtopic.php?t=652 (check this link for some documentation) Apparently, it's very unfortunate that the CRF used the word "play" in there. In my view, you arent playing a creature, but...
