Greetings fellow competitors, and thank you for taking the time to look over this message. I'd like to make sure everyone is prepared for the fierce battles ahead!

In divisional play, you will battle each of your 4 opponents once, meaning you'll be granted 4 games.

Since there are 5 players in a division and only 4 players can be playing 1v1 games at once in a round, each player will have one "bye" round, meaning they do not play that round!

• How else can I quickly get to the tournament page?

Besides using the highlighted links above, you can also click on the blue words "2012 World Cup of Risk", found directly above the map in your games.

And so we have our first update!

July 2

Round 2 created for Haiti, Yugoslavia divisions.

I am aware of the 6 or so games that still have players awaiting. Remember, all players will receive a minimum of 3 invites, so this gives plenty of time for these games to get going.

July 3

Reserve grady12345 replaces inactive cdbridges of the Central America division, for the remainder of the tournament.

Round 2 created for Iceland, Istanbul, Montreal divisions.

Note that a reserve was called upon only because the division is in Round 1. In all other rounds, the game would have been forfeited and cdbridges' opponents each would have received a win.

Glad I got an easier division after having top 5 or so last year. Haiti is my bitch.

Glad I got an easier division after having top 5 or so last year. Haiti is my bitch.

I still remember that division; tightest one in World Cup history ( ); all 4 players tied at 3 wins a piece, and an epic 4-player Standard game to find the player advancing (which, you won )

I hope my American friends had a fantastic Independence Day!

And now we'll have our annual look of just to what extent the competition spans the globe. Indeed, this year we do have at least one competitor in every continent! Well, besides Antarctica. Any penguins around?

Interestingly, we also have exactly the same percentage of Americans in this year's Cup as in last year's, at 47%. Very similar to the actual percentage of Americans on the site (49%).
