Players from all locations are welcome to sign up. As it says in the "server" section, people can choose to play on whatever servers they want. Official servers are merely encouraged since we can easily set up admin passwords, change slots, fetch demos, and check logs as and when needed in case something goes wrong or somebody wants to file a complaint, etc.
However we accept that for geographical reasons and so on, players (for example australians would probably prefer to play on servers like gibbed.me, etc) may not wish to use the servers we've provided. We're both students so we're not in a position to rent 63 VPS servers all in different locations just to run a few one-day tournaments, however we're not gonna restrict anyone to playing on the servers we're offering. All we ask is that the server chosen to play on offers (roughly) equal ping to everyone playing, and preferably also that a referee be present, although the latter pre-requisite isn't as paramount.
