The Weakest Link '09 competition is now open for registration! Deadline was May 6th, 14:00 GMT. You can still sign up, but it's not guaranteed you'll get a spot!
The procedure is pretty simple, actually. Simply make a post in this thread indicating that you want to sign up, participate, that you're ready to roll, that you are looking forward to making all the others/the ID your bitches and so on.
Keep in mind the rules, and that you have to be able to use the DOS version or winbeta in the version 1.1.1. (UPDATE: Linux and notably ADOM sage are fair game too - the saves are compatible!)
If you'd like to participate using the server, please state this in your sign-up post. If you do so you might end up in a server league, so make sure you'll be able to play!
People who by some stroke of bad fortune are unable to use the DOS version or winbeta (or Linux or ADOM Sage) to play and can only participate through the server should state this explicitly.
That's all from me here - Register!

Looks there will be at least one server league! Since I want to keep the league numbers as close to equal as possible people in the "Maybe Server" group may end up in a server league or they may not. Please specify if you prefer to play on the server, don't mind either way, or prefer not playing on the server!
I'm proud to announce that last year's winner PeanutGod has signed up to defend this title this year. Since runner-up Soirana is also with us the standard of play this year is bound not to be shamed by last year's
Any last year's participants you happen to know personally or be able to contact, send a note to 'em... Even though they are currently inactive I think they won't mind taking part again! The more the merrier, after all
