Your mistakes are misspelling and mine grammar. Big difference. And you do those "whit" mistakes by knowing it (I've told you about that maybe twice, which shouldn't be very annoying?). At least I try to learn from mistakes.
keep learning :)

This break between 9th and 10th event is a very good thing... you have some time to fix the damage that wcup did to your life... :) also it prevent's the cup from starting to get boring and too routine-like... after this break, people will be more interested and will have more energy to play...

it would be pretty boring to have christmas every week too...

biggest problem of world cup: events last too long.

i am almost sure its the only reason why its so unpopular among the "top" players. anything over one week is unacceptable.

think what you think, i rest my case

I agree a bit with that.
When the level is released, everyone are awfully enthusiastic and höyl constantly. This lasts for a couple of days. After that, less and less people play wcup, and on Thursday the world cup's been more or less forgotten. Towards the end of the week people start playing again to perfect their time a bit, and then they send in.
There's usually a pretty big gap between these two höyling sessions, one that shouldn' really need to be there.
I hope that a possible World Cup 5 will have shorter (and perhaps more) events.

So dz, who are these top players...you, tor, cloud...mick and..??
Wcups have always been like this and it shouldn't been changed. Höyling, skill, style...all is needed. I agree that there could be some shorter events, if this impsy lev was 1day long I might have won :)

well im not referring to anyone, i put it inside "" cuz i didnt find more suitable words, but i think you got my point anyway. many are enthusiastic at the beginning, few makes it till half way, last few events should be more popular though, as some people realize it's not every year wc happens, putting their hate towards it away for a moment :wink:

nowadays people play so much in wcups that the structure of the cup really should be changed. think about it, cup that lasts for 20 events and the next event starts the same day that the previous one ends...that's like 140 days of höyling...i probably don't have to tell u that it's too much.

if asked would ppl want 15 or 20 events then usually those players who don't play every event or don't play at all vote for 20 events...maybe they think that *hmm, i don't care about the cup right now but maybe i get intrested it in few months*..

many good players have stopped playing cup during it. probably because the cup is takin too much time.

i think that 6 day events r good. the most skilled players would get advantage if events would last for 1-3 days. i think it would be a bit unfair for the average players. but this kinda short event-wcup could be tested too...but i think it should be called something else then World Cup.

20 events is waaayy too much in my opinion...10 events would get probably much more players...and they would play all events..if the cup would last for 70 days, then maybe it could be arranged every year...but there is no way there could be a cup every year if it lasts way over 100 days.

i gave it a thought and came up with a conclusion;
10 event cup would really be something.

think about it, it would be all about every points you can squeeze, now, for unfortunately many, it's more like playing random levs when some happens to pleasure you. not good.. also, that way it's alot more possible that it could be held every year, or even twice a year (?)

Yep, there hasn't been any 2-year tradiotion. Between WCup1 and 2k there was about six months, between 2k and 3 about a year and between 3 and 4 those two years. So four years period is coming..? PLAY NOW.
