Hi, I can't register a team for the country of Montenegro (it is not available in the drop-down menu of countries).
There is only an option to register as Serbia & Montenegro - but that country does not exist since 2007. Is there any way to include Montenegro in the drop-down list? Thanks! |

Montenegro is recognized by 178 UN states, in among the USA, and Serbia itself as #32 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_relations_of_Montenegro

Thanks SekeRob*,
Indeed, Montenegro is a United Nations member and a candidate country for EU and NATO membership. It is also a member of the OSCE, Council of Europe, CEFTA, .... Recognized by 178 countries in the world, as you said... So, it would be great if Montenegro could be included in the drop-down list ... so I could register a team belonging to Montenegro. Thanks! PS: I am aware that the problem is only a technical one, as the list of countries was probably sourced some ten years ago and not updated since... |

Doubtlessly you're 'aware', just not WCG admin, so providing the basic back info helps them find their bearings quicker.
---------------------------------------- If you're to first to bring it to the admin's attention and there's a team, presume there to be others who can't put their country of residence in, and maybe went for 'International'. For the My Forum Profile side, link near top of page, the country field is free-form, so you can start by entering Montenegro as a first :D [Edit 1 times, last edit by SekeRob* at Sep 12, 2016 8:52:33 PM] |

Thanks for the tip SekeRob*,
----------------------------------------Just entered it as my country in the My Forum Profile... And now, I'll wait for someone to notice this thread (apart from you, obviously!).... :-) [Edit 1 times, last edit by vpekic at Sep 13, 2016 12:39:13 PM] |
