Re: Grimstarr\'s account hacked
deac, MH:
Unfortunately, 2+2 won't allow an "official" tournament to be held at these sites using the 2+2 name or having 2+2 as the "official" organizer (for legal reasons, 2+2 can't sponsor or organize in any way an online tourney for US users). However, the sites are still very interested in promoting their sites to the 2+2 community. They feel like doing something special for the mods and having the whole user community watching the tournament is a great way to do this. However, they need to do it "unofficially" so as to not have any issues like any potential liability for 2+2. That's why neither the sites nor 2+2 will be officially involved in setting this up and why I'm working with my contacts there to act as an intermediary to get everyone signed up.
Obviously, if you aren't comfortable providing the info, just don't sign up. I can totally understand that. I, on the other hand, will be taking my free $2k tourney entries (along with the 23 other mods who have already signed up) and hopefully winning both tournaments!
