Guild Wars Fansite Friday #63

For the sixty-third Guild Wars Fansite Friday feature, ArenaNet answers several questions about the upcoming Guild Wars World Championship. Check it out:
Q: What will ArenaNet and/or NC soft require from players and guilds upon qualification for the Regional Playoffs?

A: Upon the end of the qualification season on January 1st, the guild leader will need to provide ArenaNet with a list of the 8 players and 2 alternates who will be participating in the Regional Playoffs. (Information on player selection and age limits will be included in next week's update.) We will require contact information for each guild's 10 representatives, including the full name of each player or alternate, Guild Wars user/account name, mailing address, email address, telephone number, and birthdate. Guild leaders may want to start gathering or verifying this contact information soon.

Once a guild qualifies for the Regional Playoffs, each player will need to sign and return several documents, such as releases and so forth. But here is something of special note for potential Regional Playoff participants: One of the first things you will be asked to do is provide proof that you have a valid passport (and a visa, if you country requires it) and that you are eligible to travel to Taipei. This proof will be required by January 4, 2006.
