Some of you may have already noticed that a new demos page is now up, with the demos being gradually added.

http://www.pkeuro.com/demos.php

The most important feature of this page is that you can add and edit your own demos, and screenshots. The demo files are then hosted by pkeuro. Currently upload size is set to 2MB for demos and 512KB for screenshots.

The demos page itself allows you to sort and filter out the demos you want, based on country, player, version, event, map etc.

Moreover it allows us to collect a database of pk demos where there has been a demo-famine up til now with high skilled players being very protective of their tactics. Feel free to contribute.

TsN announced yesterday their forthcoming PK Tournament. This provides something for the States-side of the PK community to get its teeth into before the Winter CPL.

All matches will be played on American servers that are agreed upon by both players. If a server cannot be agreed upon, both players will choose a server for their opponents map. In special cases of server disputes, all decisions will be made by TsN staff, in favor of the players.

The tournament will start on Saturday, November 20th, @ 1:00 EST and continue throughout the weekend.

You can find the tournament details post here:

The tournament rules are mostly based on the pkeuro tournament ones, which seem (with the CPL adopting them partly from us also), to have set the standard for duel settings.

Fatal1ty(TM)s new website was launched recently, along with a lot of ABIT based promotion of the new gaming hardware available under the Fatal1ty brand.

You can find the website here: http://www.fatal1ty.com/

The site is heavy on streaming video, of which there are four parts from various sources highlighting the activities of this gamer/brand.

Somewhere under all this is still a successful MP gamer, whos attention, no-doubt, will quickly be turning to focus once again on Painkiller, following his defeat at the Summer CPL, losing to Vo0.

Fatal1tys booth tour still continues, where he was joined recently by another PK player, Zen.

It seems that NBCs prime-time hospital series, ER, recently mentioned PK during one of its episodes : season 11, episode 2. In the past weve seen the staff at the front desk of ER play Doom (back when George Clooney was in it – kid from a drainage pipe during a severe thunderstorm episode). Its good to see theyve moved on since then 🙂
