Guys,
Check out the F3K.Us and make sure you have registered your contest at least 1 month prior.
Get them listed on the F3K.us website as a team selection qualifier. I did not see but a few contests listed there.

Oleg posted details in the 2015 Team Selection sticky thread.

To quote Spaceballs:

So, Lord Helmet, at last we meet again for the first time for the last time.

Good to see you on board. I look forward to a truly cosmic battle!
