Notes and Changes
I discussed grouping strategies with Lankypuss yesterday and we came up with a new strategy that should eliminate the last obstacle hindering fast starts. It took a long time to start the premades last Sunday because we lacked knowledge of how exactly realm-hopping works, and we started grouping people up without a clear strategy in mind.
The grouping strategy for this week's premade is the following:
Next Sunday at 18:50 I will look through our rosters, find two people on the same realm or on connected realms, but on different factions. I will then post a reply in this thread, announcing that realm, and the P2Ps that help us form the groups will then make DKs on that realm, and start inviting everybody from that character. Once everyone is invited, the P2P will give leadership of the raid to the player of the selected realm. Everyone will now be on the same, correct realm and we won't have the problem that delayed the wargames for so long last Sunday.
Don't worry, you don't have to understand that. Only the P2Ps that help us group up have to.
The Horde team has been really good with getting people on Skype, but the Alliance needs to improve on this front. You're not required to talk, but please join the call to listen!
I want to thank [MENTION=14809]Lankypuss[/MENTION] and [MENTION=22918]Badpak[/MENTION] for their help with getting everyone grouped up last Sunday!
These games wouldn't have been possible without their help.

General Information
The Wargames will start at 19:00 CET if everything goes as planned, but everyone should be logged onto their characters and ready to go at 18:55 CET.
At 19:05 CET we will start filling up the slots of those who aren't online with reserve-players and whoever else is interested in playing.
If you don't show up and haven't posted in this thread by 19:05 CET to let people know you're not coming, then you can't get a secured slot in the next event and will have to sign up as a reserve.
The leader of the Alliance-team and the leader of the Horde-team shall meet at the Runeweaver Square in Dalaran on the realm announced in this thread at 18:50.
We will be playing Arathi Basin instead of Warsong Gulch if there are twelve or more people signed up on both the Alliance and Horde team (not counting reserves). The FC-slot will be replaced with a DPS-slot, and the amount of healer-slots will be increased to four per team if we're playing Arathi Basin.
Everyone is expected to be using Skype, but you don't need to talk if you don't want to. Just listening to the ones who are talking is OK.
If there are more people interested in playing than there are slots, then the people who aren't joining the Skype-call for the Wargames will be marked as reserves and switched out for people who do join Skype.
If you aren't sure of whether or not you will be available, or for whatever other reason want to sign up as a reserve-player; you can.
Reserve-players will not suffer a penalty for not showing up without posting here, but are still recommended to do so if possible.

Rules
- Only weapons, armor, and enchants that are or have been obtainable by unlinked Starter-accounts are allowed (meaning no Guild-Heirlooms).
- No usable items such as toys, potions, elixirs, food that gives buffs, and so on. Bandages are the exception to this rule and can be used if they are of Mageweave or lower quality.
- Only Guardian Druids signed up as the FC and Restoration Druids can use Ferocious Bite.
Class and Specialization Restrictions
- No more than two players of the same class on the same team.
- No Feral Druids.
- No more than one Arms Warrior, one Balance Druid, and one Monk DPS per team.
- Any player who is specialized (talented) for healing must be listed as that role (meaning, for example, no Restoration Druid DPS', FCs, etc.).
A player might get dropped for a player of another class or specialization in order to foster diversity. I will for example try not to place two Discipline Priests on the same team (so sign up as Holy if there already is a Discipline Priest in your faction's roster!).
Exceptions can be made if we're low on players. Getting a full 10v10 wargame is the top priority.
