For further info, please call (10 am to 10 pm) 03-74910805: Mr Helmi Hassan and Mr Azlan Mansor

*Note: Each of the Preliminary Rounds are open to everyone. This means, you can register for any one of those rounds. For example, let's say you register for the 1st round. But you fail to qualify. So, you can still try again by registering for the 2nd round (You will still have to pay another RM30 for every time you register. To save money, invite a lot of your friends to register, like how I explained in the rules above). If you still fail to qualify, you can try again for the 3rd round, and again for the 4th round.

Also, if you feel that you cannot come for the 1st round, you can straight away register for the 2nd round, or 3rd, or 4th. It's up to you.

Come all, let's join this tourney!

Can... you can register for 2nd, 3rd or 4th round. Totally up to you.

Very sure maaa. Join la. The more people joining, the cheaper the registration fee. Don't la just go and see, go and play lorrrr... Come laaa....

i will consider to join this one

will ask few of my frens to join it

I called that number twice just now, but I didn't get the chance to talk to the persons in charge. One went out and the other took the day off.

Haih.

What is it about the competition that you want to ask about? You can always ask me. I know a bit about it... because I have joined their competition last year.

Alright.

I think you won't be able to answer this one:

1. Which version will be used? I know it's Winning Eleven 9 (Jap) but is it a patched version (if so, which patch?), with updated players and all?


The rest:
2. Can I bring my own memory card? (For formations, of course)

3. When will it start? Morning? Noon?

4. Are we allowed to change the formation in the middle of the game?

5. How many tvs+ps2s do they have there for the tournament?

Cannavaro, u are correct man, I really cannot accurately answer all your questions, but I'll try to answer them based on my previous experience with their tournaments. Of course, for a more accurate answer, better to contact Playworks staffs themselves.
1. Normally they'll use Winning Eleven 9 that's patched, with updated kits, names, and all. But specifically which patched version it is, I don't know. You'll have to ask the organisers.

2. Previously, they don't allow contestants to bring their own memory cards. You'll have to set your formations on the spot. They'll allow some time for you to do so though, so don't worry. But maybe the organisers have changed that ruling now. Try asking them.

3. Last year, it started at around 11 to 12. And they'll try to finish it before night, in order to allow underage contestants to go back home before night.

4. Previously, we're not allowed to change formations in the middle of the game. Can change only during halftime. But if you have an injured or red-carded player, you're allowed to do substitution. I don't know if there are changes to this ruling now, though.

5. I know for a fact that they have 4 TV's and 4 PS2's set aside for the tournament.

Hope that helps!

Indeed that's helpful.
Thank you.

But I've more questions, heheh.

What were the competitors like, last time? Did you see any good players, as in the ones who easily beat their opponents?

From what I read, in this annual tournament in the UK usually the competition is tight. Can't remember the site though, I found it through pesinsight.com.

I do remember that the league leader had quite a few defeats, and the only thing that separates most of them are the number of wins and draws, not defeats.

FYI, most probably they'll not play in league format during the qualifying stage, especially when the number of participants is too many because if they allow league format, it'll be too long before everyone has finally played. Most probably they'll use group league.

And about the level of competition, I must say that it's not that level lah. There were some contestants who were lepas and bounds above the rest (i.e. very terer). Most are average-level gamers (like me ). There are also not so good players who are only there to play the game, gain experience, and have fun.

But then again, sometimes, even the strong players fall. Best way to know about the level of competition, is to join and experience playing against them. Then you'll know.

Hi, been following this post and gathered some questions myself...

Ive never seen or heard of any tournaments since i started playing this game. Ive organized a tournament myself amongst my friends last year..around 10 of us (all the big European clubs were used) and i know how intense and fun it can get...which leads me to my first question...

1) 4tvs? Is tat enough to accomodate so many ppl? I had 2 tvs in my tourney and it took us 12 hours to finish the tourney with round robin, semi finals and the final...all 10 minute games. Since im lazy to do the math i think logically it would need a little more tvs since everyone is allowed to replay in the 2nd 3rd and 4th round...

2) During games, i have a friend who has the tendency to pause just when im about to make a spectacular Lampard shot, with the excuse of changing his injured roy keane...is there a rule...to pause ONLY when the ball is out of play...do i get to bash the opponent if he does it? I know alot of trigger happy people...i hate them all..

3) arent the organizers here in this forum at all? it can help solve all the FAQs... or do they have a website/blog/forum?

4) Mun Wai playing?

cheers

1. 4 TVs might not be enough if there are a lot of participants, but based on my experience last year, not that many people are joining. So, if that's still the case this time, then 4 TVs should be enough. After all, if there're too many people joining, maybe they'll break everyone into small groups and thus will limit the amount of time spent playing.

2. There is a rule to disallow pausing the game like that. You would get a warning if the person did that. But sometimes they forget to enforce that rule. If during play you feel your opponent had an unfair advantage by doing that, you can always complain, coz there will be a referee watching over your game.

3. I guess the organisers aren't Interent-savvy. Hehe. They don't have any website, nor are they active in any forums / blogs. Promotion for their tournaments are normally via word of mouth and via SMS sent to participants of previous tournaments (they keep your handphone number so that later if they want to host other tournaments, they will be able to contact you). Best way to ask them is by phone or by visiting their shop. Refer to the post I gave above.

4. Mun Wai playing? I don't know. Normally he would be playing. See how it goes tomorrow. I'm planning to visit the tournament tomorrow but not yet sure whether to register tomorrow or register for the following weeks' qualifying rounds.

Im interested in this tourney....but i only played this game for 2 weeks........gonna get thrashing there..........hope i dun meet too good player.

Yea, about the pausing........although i'm a noob player, but i always like fairplay. I hope the rules is strict. Orelse i will take the side rules, just like what our friend here just said.........BASH him up

I hope all the rules and regulations is stated clearly...

May the best player wins

Good Luck Guys !!!

I also like fair play. Don't worry, come to the tournament early, and if I'm not mistaken, they will announce all the rules there. And make sure to complain la if you feel your opponent is acting unfairly.

But don't complain if you lose due to your opponent being terer sangat.

Thanks for joining highwind. I hope more players will join. I like having the opportunity to experience playing against people whom I don't know their skills. Promotes diversity.

Latest Announcement: Unfortunately, due to the small number of participants joining 4th Feb's preliminary round, this round has been postponed to next weekend, 11th Feb. This means, participants who have registered for 4th Feb will be playing on 11th Feb.

And because of this also, the number of people qualifying for the finals on 26th Feb will be increased accordingly from 4 people per preliminary round to another amount yet undisclosed. Call Playworks for more details.

Im a FIFA player actually, u can see i post quite a number in the LYN League ^^

But anyway, it's more challenging to play in something which im not good in, i just wanna meet up with more friends.

Got few question here, hope someone can help :

1. Any idea how to get to sunway pyramid through public transport?
Im from Cyberjaya, guide me there at least from (SUBANG JAYA - KTM) if u all dunno how to get there from Cyberjaya.

2. Is the grand final still on 26th ? I cant make it then coz i got important things to do back in penang......i guess im gonna miss the big show

Btw, is Mun Wai the previous champion of WE in Malaysia ?

highwind:

1. To get to Sunway Pyramid from KTM Subang, you can either take a bus or taxi. Which bus specifically to take, I think it's best you ask people at the station there. They would know. I don't know coz it's been some time since I last took a bus to go somewhere.

2. The grand final is most probably on 26th. Tough luck...

3. Mun Wai is ESWC 2004 Malaysia champion. But 2005 there's no ESWC for Malaysia, so I don't think you can say that Mun Wai is champion of Malaysia anymore... Plus, in recent tournaments other than the ones Mun Wai hosts at his shop, he isn't the champion.
