Didn't EU already have a fight club?  Either way, how do you expect them to manage that?  We're working on Central or West.  Could do East, I suppose, but you guys would still have 110-160ms.  That's just not feasible.
A good amount of the "high-tier" players are located in EU, but they don`need to arrange it themselves.
If you haven`t noticed (can`t blame you), we got many clans here in EU with leaders that would be highly willing to host one of these competitions, but since the dev team only got connections in EU with TAW we don`t get much to happen here. Sure we got a good amount of fighty clubs, but why not a 
EXTREME Fight Club where the devs actually support the game? This will encourage people to join in community events as they may get free stuff right from the devs themselves.
 
I'll sum it up for you, it would be great if the devs host something like this for EU only, just like what they will be doing with the west.
 
Send them a message.  Get things organized.  Take the initiative yourself to make something happen.  How do you think the OMNI vs. Developers game happened?  Leonhardt approached the developers.  How do you think TPG private servers were lent out to players?  I approached the developers.  Just ask directly, but be nice about it.  These posts don't come off that way.  Also, keep in mind that it's much easier for them to organize with U.S. players for multiple reasons:
1. Time zone.  If they were to contact you around 5pm PDT, it would be past midnight your time.  A lot gets done in the
Afternoons at ADH.  
2. Geographical location.  Europe is almost halfway around the world.  The ping compromise is few and far between, and even if there was a perfect mid-point between the U.S. and Europe. I.E. not in the ocean, pings would still be 100ms+
That's atrocious for any fast-paced game.  
For the reasons stated above, I can understand why the devs separate events based on region.  Not liking something != reason to complain about it publicly.  Geographical boundaries too stronk, and there's not much that the devs can do about it.
