The Pandanet Go European Cup was a Go competition played across Europe. The now defunct European Cup and European Go Tour (which both ended in April 2007) merged to form this cup after Toyota's support of the Tour ended. Many of the games played during the Cup are broadcast on Pandanet's Internet Go Server (IGS) and the KGS Go Server. Since 2011, Pandanet decided to end the support of this competition and wanted to take care of the European Go Teams Championship. This competition is called now European Go Cup as previously. ==Format== The Pandanet Go European Cup consists of a series of events spread out across Europe. These events fall into one of five levels (two carried over from the European Cup and three from the Tour). Each event awards points to the top players based on both the event's level and the place earned by the player. In the bottom two levels these points are purchased by the tournament holder and at the upper three levels, Pandanet purchases points. Each point is equivalent to €6 (≈$8.25 US$). Players can carry a maximum of 100 points into the finals. Though there are twelve upper-level (levels 3, 4, and 5) events held every year, the number of lower-level (levels 1 or 2) events can vary with the sole restriction that there may not be more than two events at any level, per country, per year. Because of this, the prize money has the ability to change from year to year. With the guaranteed twelve Pandanet events, the overall prize money is at least €4,500, with more events resulting in more money offered. This purse is split amongst the top twelve overall players based on position. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「European Go Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
