From www.thecpl.com:
The show will include several broadcasts and repeated follow-up of the $1,000,000 CPL World Tour. To commence the ongoing coverage GIGA-TV will air interviews with CPL Painkiller Champions Sander Kaasjager (Vo0) and Andrew Ryder (Gellehsak).
From www.fnatic.com:
The entire show will be broadcast between 22:00 and 00:00 CET, on NBC Europe, or for those that aren’t in Germany will be available by a live broadcast stream here: http://broadcast.giga.de/listen.pls. The stream is run on a first come first serve basis, and has a 1000 slot limit. Because of Painkiller’s +18 rating, it will only be shown after 23:00, so if your just tuning in for the Vo0 and gellehsak show, make sure your there between 23:00 and 00:00!
Firstly they will be starting the show with an interview with the both of them, talking about Painkiller in general, as well as some more personal questions about the World Tour amongst other things. This will be followed up by a show match between the both of them for 15 min, on a map of their choosing. And finally the show will finish up with “Esports Nanny” a regular feature on the Giga show, to find out more tune in later!
So make sure you stay awake, stay tuned, and either jump onto a TV or join the stream, for some Painkiller fun with the worlds’ best players!

Hamster of Team Dignitas interviewed the famous player LeXeR, who is currently a member of Check Six.
snipet:
LeXeR: That game is much more balanced from now on. I mean the weapons are much more balanced now, imo. But the speed is way to fast for me, 1.35 was perfect.
Carmac interviewed Vo0 for the Global Gaming League. Vo0 answers questions about the evolution of PK, the World Tour and Fatal1ty.
snipet:
Of course there is pressure. Lots of pressure actually, but it doesn’t seem to affect me in game. Before I went to all these events I thought it would affect me loads, but it didn’t. So there is pressure, but I know I will not be affected by it, which relieves it a bit.
The CPL released the list of signups for CPL Turkey. Its an impressive list, with the best players from all over the world. And everyone is wondering if Vo0 can beat all these players.
Slightly old news, but for the ignorant: The president of the CPL has been interviewed by INQ7.net.
snipet:
Just 3 from the original 64 contenders are still in the game, and they will be battling it out this afternoon for the much desired Vo0 cup.
The second semi-final match will start at 15:00 GMT (16:00 CET). The players that reached the semifinals are:
Worre beat knizzle in the first semi-final match yesterday evening, so at 15:00 GMT the remaining semi-final match will be played between gellehsak and xhep, the winner will meet worre in the finals.
TsN will be with us again to provide commentary, so make sure your listening to www.tsncentral.com

UPDATE: Gellehsak beat worre in the finals after an intense match spanning 3 maps. Scores:

The $1,000,000 CPL World Tour will commence on February 10th in Istanbul, Turkey, and will travel to major cities in Europe, Asia, South America and North America throughout the year.
“This sponsorship is a great fit for both CPL and NVIDIA as it allows NVIDIA to publicly show its support for the PC gaming community and those gamers that demonstrate excellence in play,” said David Roman, vice president of corporate marketing at NVIDIA. “Participating in the CPL World Tour complements NVIDIA’s ongoing grass roots marketing efforts and gives us an opportunity to reach out to a large and diverse global audience of gamers who seek the highest performance technologies. We applaud the CPL’s endeavors to promote the sport of competitive gaming in an entertaining and high-profile way.”
As a presenting sponsor, NVIDIA will host on-site exhibits at each of the ten tour stops, as well as equip the tournament PCs deployed at each tour stop with its award-winning GeForce™ 6800 model graphics processing units (GPUs). The selection of NVIDIA® GPUs will deliver to players competing in the headline Painkiller competition the distinct technology advantage of blazing fast frame rates and crisp visuals necessary for extreme levels of play.
NVIDIA is also contributing funds to the “unofficial” competitions based on other popular PC games, including Day of Defeat and Warcraft 3, at select tour stops.
Gamers across the globe will have an opportunity to follow the action via radio broadcasts hosted by the Team Sportscast Network (TSN). Also sponsored by NVIDIA for the CPL World Tour, TSN plans to broadcast live, play-by-play coverage of all the major competitions from each stop on the CPL World Tour from the Website, located at worldtour.tsncentral.com.
“NVIDIA has been a wonderful partner of the CPL and its continued support has elevated game tournaments to a new level,” said Angel Munoz, founder and president of the CPL. “CPL competitors demand the highest performing hardware and NVIDIA has consistently delivered. We look forward to building on this relationship with the commencement of the World Tour.”

Clanbase published the first version of the rules for the upcoming Painkiller 1on1 Cup. Maplist has not been finalized, but the version used is 1.61.
ESReality has interviewed the founder and president of the CPL, Angel Munoz.
snipet:
TsN has been reporting live at CPL events for years and have done a great job. I think they are very aware that their Painkiller coverage needs a ‘brush up’ to become equitable with their CS coverage. I like the iTG staff very much and they do a super job because of their one-versus-one experience. In fact they are welcome to attend any of the World Tour Stops as our agreement with TsN is not exclusive.
