More like its about time for TWC to have a 32-team tournament. I'm loving the idea of extending the length of matches and the readjusted mappool rules. I wish all countries the best of luck and may the best team win!

That actually depends on registrations, if there arent enough to do 32 competent teams it is reduced to 24 - 20 - 16, imo it will probably be 24 but we will see.

It will probably be 24 teams again, however I always have hope! It'll be nice to have 32 teams IMO :D

There are more registered players for this year than in TWC 2016. That's something I didn't really expect.

Guess people are hyped.

Help us ~~~ !
We are in an emergency about TWC
(1) Isobe was chosen as a member of Japan Team, but can't join TWC
(2) Isobe has a brother, and his brother's account has been restricted
(3) accounts@ppy.sh seems to treat it as his secondary account and that's why Isobe is not allowed
(4) 4 members (who know Isobe has a brother) had sent mails to them but we haven't received any mail yet
(5) deadline is after an another half day

RIP Isobe :( I can vouch for him that he has good integrity as a tournament player. It would be a shame for him to lose his shot at TWC over something like this. Please somebody clear this up. It's pretty fucking important.

After quite a bit of protest from the taiko community over the unfair ruling. It appears that Tournament/Osu Staff have reviewed Isobe's situation and he is now approved to play in TWC!!!!!!!!!!!! https://twitter.com/Beat43210/status/1116499610233479168

I would like to thank everyone for bringing this to staff's attention and i would also like to thank staff for prioritising this case right before TWC begins!

Good work everyone, and now nothing bad will happen during this tournament :D
Oui
