While we staff have been working hard to figure out what are the best possible categories we could put into this year's Interguild Olympics, we almost forgot to formally open team sign-ups!
Or, technically, you'll be signing up to take part in the IO; you won't be signing up for which team you'll be in. The way that it works is that the staff will assign you a team in order to keep the teams balanced based on skill and how active we think people will be during the course of the tournament. If you don't want to be in a team but you still want to join in some aspects of the IO, you're welcome to do that, but just know that teams make up some of the most fun aspects of the tournament and you'd be missing out.
So if you want to sign up, just post below.
If you want more info about what the IO is exactly, then look at some of last year's posts:

I guess since I was an observer/judge last year(even though I had that steel insanity entry that I sided with the KarmaBites) I'll sign up.

Well that's not really fair if you don't have it... I could go buy it though.

Despite not having my question answered, I'll sign up. I'll be gone for either the last week of July and 1st week of August or the 1st and 2nd week of August though, in case that effects my "activity" level.

I agree that it wouldn't really be fair to have a competition for a game which you have to buy.

I think it's a tradeoff. While I do see why it'd be called unfair, it will probably increase activity so much it'd be dumb to forego it, in my opinion. | | Livio |

We'll balance the teams so that every team has somebody at least that plays MC. | | Yuggy |

Otherwise the minecraft idea wouldn't work. Lots of people have it anyway, so it shouldn't be too hard to balance the teams in that way. | | soccerboy13542 |

I'm in. I won't be able to enter HatPC comps because I can't play custom levels. Whenever I load a userlevel, at the "Press jump to start" menu, it freezes. Oh well. Atleast we got a bunch of other games. | | |
