No international player, therefore we have our own video, photo and written reports on czech pages. Maybe next year... have fun with states!
 
snox: are you saying that you're willing to use the 'gym to advertise for the event, but not willing to share the tourney results with the 'gym community who can't read czech? because that is what your post sounds like it is saying :(

'mom
 
Pokémom: I simply do not see any reason. I usually do coverage for nations, that are participated to enable them to see the results of their representatives. Otherwise it would look like weird. I wouldn't post the results of danish players or coverage of danish tournament to italian forum... it would be like LOL XD. I haven't seen any interest. And because there were no interest I hired only czech coverage guys, who did coverages on czech pages. I think this is understandable. Anyway what would you like to know then?
 
We got some coverage of the European Cup and had hoped to get the same on this event. Only asking for the typical coverage that we get for any event going on in the Pokemon community. There is always an interest in what is going on out there in the "Pokemon" world. Seems like if the "International" community is going to come here to advertise and get information then they can be expected to share just like the rest of us.

Am I wrong Jason?
 
I don't think that the 'gym mods would be happy with an explosion of foreign language posts: that is what you would get if you insist on reports. I'm always rather impressed by how much effort many international players expend to post in English rather than their first language.

Do all the USA TOs post detailed reports on their events? Or even any kind of report on their events? It is left to the players. So typical coverage would for the Czech events be many posts in Czech.

@jrwaxman: http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pokeworld.cz%2Fcs%2Fclanky%2Freporty%2F200-report-z-moravskeho-vikendu-a-state-by-golem&sl=cs&tl=en&hl=&ie=UTF-8 for a report by a czech senior.

@Snox: I'd still like the links to reports, even ones in Czech as with a bit of help from Google it is possible to follow what happened.
