This account is a clear alt account. As such, you wouldn't be able to play. Please register with your main account.

If all other accounts are closed, please mention the name of your previous main account (one which would fulfill the requirements of 500 games and being more than 4 months old at the time of registration) to me in direct message when registrations are open, and consider reopening it as proof. The full requirements will be listed in the rules.

You have until July to try to reach the rating needed, if you really want to participate. Good luck!
