I just got back to the Lotte World Hotel. It’s already 10:41PM here and everyone is really tired! We went through in one evening, and we were expecting to take today slowly since the competition starts tomorrow but we were dead wrong. The tournament already unofficially started because after the grand banquet and the bracket seeding, all the teams were required to go to the tournament venue and set-up their characters! True enough – the mechanics changed again. The 5 Acid/Fire Bottle and 3 Deadly Poison rule still stands, but all the countries were caught flat on their back when the Gravity official announced that the characters would only be Job Level 60. Fortunately for us, we had veteran guild masters that came along – Leic and Marlou from Armada. Their role as coaches proved to be very effective as they went around and helped the players with their skills and stats. Anyway, pictures and more kwento after the jump!
RWC 2007 TOURNAMENT SEEDING
The event was held at the Sapphire Ballroom of the Lotte World Hotel. The teams from various countries and senior managers of Gravity and publishers were present. Level-up Games International CEO, Ben Colayco, was also there and he even gave a quick speech which ended with him betting 100 US Dollars that either Brazil or the Philippines will be in the finals!

RWC 2007 TOURNAMENT TREE
Team PH is up first, taking on Team Indonesia. If you guys don’t know, Indonesia was the country that took us out back in 2004! If ever we get past Team Indonesia, we still have to compete against Brazil to get into the semi-finals. It’s going to be one hell of a challenging road for Team PH.

TEAM PH & TEAM INDONESIA
In true Filipino fashion, Team PH reached out and shook hands with their first opponents for tomorrow, Team Indonesia. We even took some pictures, hehe.

@Famine Of course we know man na madami pa rin problems. I’m not the only person naman in the RO Team, hehe. The new Assistant Brand Manager is working with the two Community Managers to resolve the problems there back at home. There are also the GMs, IT, and all the other departments. I’m just one guy.
