Q u o t e:
Random question from a non-pvper...

How are those tournaments organised in the first place? How do people from different battlegroups, even regions get to fight against each other? Is it some sort of private.....*cough*....I meant unofficial server that runs the game, up to a specific patch? Does Blizzard endorse that in some way, or have part in organising?

Essentially we open up a tournament realm and copy the characters of the competing teams over to it. It's not unlike the way we handle any special events (i.e. Arena tournaments, BlizzCon live raids) or test realms.
