The Fourth Tronic Ladle will be played on Sunday 1st October with the finals at 9pm GMT (US: 5pm EDT, 3pm MDT, 4pm CDT, UK: 10pm BST, DE: 23:00 CEST).

	~~Details of the various stages follow:~~		== Stages ==

	;Stage 1 Stick your name down on the [[Ladle-4/Team List]] and elect Team-Captain.		=== Stage 1 ===
	:This is only a provisional listing. It does not matter if you have a full team since there may be players on the night to fill your team. The most important thing to do is '''elect a Team-Captain who you can trust''', who listens to everyone in the team, who is capable of communicating with other team-captains, and can follow the procedure to the letter on the night. You may also wish to elect a stand-in in-case the Team-Captain can't make it.		'''Stick your name down on the [[Ladle-4/Team List]] and elect Team-Captain.'''

	~~:Again, this~~ is only provisional. ~~Only the Team-Captain is authorised to place your~~ team on the ~~board. S/He may alter this whenever they wish, and this may mean some jostling since placement not only determines who~~ your team ~~goes up against in the first and subsequent rounds, but also which servers you will be playing in~~. ~~Inform your~~ Team-Captain ~~of your preferences, your favourite servers, and consider ping, stability, and general conditions.~~ '''~~The cut off for~~ the ~~provisional placement~~ of ~~teams is 00.00 GMT 1st October.''' This will allow time for admin to copy out the provisional bracket list~~, and ~~allows all players~~ to ~~know who they are expected~~ to ~~play and where well before time~~.
