Would love to see it on HLTV....
afaik, most of the players are from finland, and some from the UK. Basically, a few clans only <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Just kidding *me gives the french a big hug* ^^
Europe all the way! WE are the cradle of civilization!
But atleast there is a topic in team Finlands irc channel mentioning a game against the US for this weekend or next week.
Anyway I can tell you that the guy organising it all tryed to pick players evenly from all over Europe, UK, Sweden, Finland, France, Germany, Denmark, Netherlands and er.. I think somone spanish might be in there sum where. These players will then be trialed and tested to see how well they play, then later on in the week (within the next couple of days) the team will be announced. Players will be picked entirely on skill, we're not going to 'hold back' just so we can have players from all accross europe.
All in all i think were trying to get a team of 12 players, one marine side one alien side, and like i said the players will be picked entirely on skill.
If u have any suggestions or opinions, voice them @ irc.quakenet.org #teamEU
Apparently were not good enough?
So decrees UdaiEvil...

Whole US team has 1.1? Did you pick your team based on people who have 1.1 or did the people who got in to US team get 1.1?
And I believe the official reason for not having euro-vets is, that we don't have a ladder or clanbase here where devs could see which clan is good and which is not. I remember reading this but I can't be 100% sure. Of course there is the friendly-factor; devs are US so they know US clans better than euro clans.
but why the entire europe, surely the likes of UK and Finland could forward a team outright? :/

I have a nasty feeling that euro-team has some problems with tactics. There will be lots of great players but because of language/cultural barrier team is not working together the best way. I'm just hoping the team has enough time so the members get to know each other etc.
same with teamEU, we have rebeli, from DW (we'll take back #1st soon!), zaiko from NR, and a few from torment ;p
yeah but then thats 2 countries out of europe <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> we have players from sweden,finland,uk,germany and france
It's still so hard to decide who gets to play as we have a lot of talent everywhere.
But lookin forward to the match sunday.
By the way I think New Zealand showed you don't need masses of players to have a great NS team :o)
My God he's a machine (Swedish). Anyone know if he tried out?
