We're thinking about making them optional, which is how Confogl is coded atm.
Both teams turn the Infected changes during the game by typing !buffsi in the chat (that's the proposed 2.0 functionality).
I think this is the best way to solve the problem of including them or not - let the players themselves decide.
@ Guard1aN
Will be done.

i think some better organisation is required if this cup is going to have double the amount of teams.

The rules for game times and limits have been changed due to the terrible slowdowns some teams have created in the Opening Cup. Rest assured that this time things will go smoother as the latest rule changes (set up as a reaction to the Opening Cup problems) will be in full effect.
I advise all teams to thoroughly read and understand them:

should be simply round 1. sunday - thursday, round 2 sunday - thursday.

Bang on, who wants to be forced into playing games on the weekends? ...

Winnerbracket:
Round 2 Friday, 29/01/2010
Round 3 Saturday, 06/02/2010
This gives you Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and half Saturday to play the match. All you need to do is arrange it and finish it 1 hour before Round 3 starts @ 19:00 cet.
Teams that want to play in a competitive cup/ladder/league will be able to sort out 1 day out of 4/8 where 4 players can fight 4 others. If this is not possible then please do not sign up.
As mentioned in the rules and posted by Mystrdat, all teams should really read this news post to have the necessary information to a successful "No Rest for the Wicked" Cup:

They then proceed to only be available weekends, now this is the .EU ladder and i'm sure most Europeans have the ability to interact with the real world on weekends, do not punish us because a team of cave trolls demand to play the game at 22 on Friday night, because they are from Kyrgyzstan and are CET+4.
These to me are even more unacceptable then 1/2 days delay.
NOT SFTOvDI delay that is a massive piss take as i'm sure you would agree.
