It's going to have to be whenever Winston wakes up and opens the registration thread.
Registration thread???
A registration thread will be opened in the official EroFights Forum. That's where all signups should be submitted.
What do I need to include in my registration?
A profile of the character you want to play as. It must have played at least 10 Classic matches and has been active for more than 3 months.
I have more than 10 Classic matches in one character, and that character has been around for more than 3 months, but I want to play in the tournament with my newly-made, alternate character. Is that okay?
You may submit a fresh character for the tournament provided you can provide another character of yours that fits the qualification criteria, yes.
I only have more than 10 matches in another game mode. Can I join the tournament?
No. This is a Classic tournament - why would that matter at all?
Can I play as a crossgender character?
Yes.
Can I play as a trans character?
Trans fem characters only.
When does the tournament start?
As soon as we have 16 valid contestants.
What if I'm too late to register?
You can always register and hope there are enough late entrants to have the competition expanded to a 32-player format. Failing that, you can be part of the reserve list and be called upon to replace any player that drops out.
