2v2 league info

After announcing in the IRC channel a little while back that I was thinking of running a 2v2 league, we now have DCs support in terms of servers which means we can kick things off a little more. I’ve posted some musings on our forums HERE. Feel free to add your thoughts. I foresee sign ups kicking off in a few weeks time (once the dust has settled on CPL Spain), with the league starting shortly afterwards.

In order to gauge interest, please reply here if you have a 2v2 team interested in participating. Bear in mind this isnt a sign up 😉

I’ll check out the servers (Jolt) once they roll to PK++, and trial them once ready for use. Only then will I open up sign ups.

Your Predicted Top 4 ?

Spain is just around the corner and is already shaping up to be the best pk tourney to-date.

Like the last turkey thread, post your predicted top 4 players.

If any1 gets them all correct in the right order then ill give you a kiss 😡

Rocketboy Signs Up For Spain

Today saw Rocketboy register for the CPL Spain event after rumours that he was going to attend the event. Rocketboy is most famous in the gaming world for having beaten Fatal1ty in the Doom3 $125000 Fatal1ty booth tour.

You can find the CPL registration list here:

and an, as yet, empty list of registered players, here:

..which is the official CPL Spain website.

Fatal1ty.com Updated

Fatal1ty.com ( http://fatal1ty.com/ ) has had yet another face-lift. Previously from the fiendishly fast hand-animation site, we’d seen a transition to heavily graphical version where most of the content was streaming video. Following that it was downgraded to a more simple website, which brings us to the current iteration.

Many parts of the site still seem ‘TBD’, but it is interesting to see a very different approach to professional gaming in portraying a gamer brandname.

We will see Fatal1ty competing in CPL Spain next weekend, and with the recent announcement of the MTV involvement, no doubt Fatal1ty.com will benefit from any positive coverage of the player.

You can find Fatal1ty’s website at http://www.fatal1ty.com and the site’s forum at http://forum.abit-usa.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=56
