World Cyber Games without wNv

29-10-2008 00:51

The Chinese team wNv is currently attending the World e-Sports Masters in Hangzhou, China – In the mean time the team has been denied visa for the upcoming World Cyber Games in Cologne, Germany.

Visa issues strikes again. Over and over we see teams not getting visa for various events around the globe. It’s a returning problem for Eastern European and Asian teams wanting to attend major tournaments. This time it hits the Chinese team of wNv. The team won the national qualifier and hereby qualified for the World Cyber Games grand finals in Cologne. The team will however not be able to enter Germany without a visa, a visa that got rejected just eight days prior to tournament start. This means that World Cyber Games 2008 is one team short. The Chinese team had been drawn into group with SK Gaming, TeG, Mamut, No Pression and XIungiz.

World Cyber Games is to take place in Cologne, Germany from the 4th till the 9th, the tournament will start on the 6th.

yep... smth should be done for this... I never heard gamers from macedonia had this visa problem...

2008-10-29 09:59

Shouldn't they get their visa several months before events? This always seem to happen right before an event...
