It's time to hand out the Kaspersky Award at DreamHack again. The Kaspersky Award is supposed to go to the player with the most entertaining play style, from a spectator point of view.

At DreamHack Summer 2010, where it was handed out for the first time, Sweden fazz received it for his performance during the competition. At that time, the players from the same tournament got to vote who they thought should get it.

This time it's different. The vote is in your hands, the ones who followed the whole tournament through different sites and streams covering the tournament.

The voting will close today at 09:00 CST!

The last Playday of the IEM5 European Championship is starting tonight with two matches, as well as two other late games. Make sure you hang in mIRC #masters.ql to get the stream infos!

The last playday is the 24th of November. As the rules mention, it's not allowed to reschedule it to the next after, even with wildcard. The players going to DreamHack are highly encouraged to pre-pone their last match to an earlier date as soon as possible.

We ran out of an active poll! And nobody was willing to answer Israel no_il's poll request for 3 months now. I guess it's time someone do it.
"I want to make a poll where people can rate on a 1-6 scale (in order from best to worst[1 being the best, 6 being the worst]) their opinion regarding Which of the six new duel maps are best for competitve play."

The good part is that there was enough time to properly test the maps: Aerowalk, Battleforge, Dismemberment, Focal Point, Hektik, Phrantic.

Go rank now!

"COLUMN: A Year in Pro Gaming" - 2004 review by carmac

http://web.archive.org/web/20050211233931/htt...single/564

Quake 3 wasn't picked up in major tournaments anymore (excepted ESWC), CPL was in a fun period before the PK World Tour, players were dumber than ever, commentators were getting dissed and carmac was criticizing how the players' money was handled. Also, it was the year of the most failed tournament ever: the Cyber X Games 2004 by Chris "recon" Hill!

Did I mention ESReality was down at this time?

Enjoy the comments as well (I couldn't agree more with #144), there are plenty of replies from CPL's staff and players : ]

This evening are starting the matches from the Playday 3 of the IEM5 European Championship. Our dear United Kingdom Joe from ESL TV will be casting 2 of them during the IEM Quake Live Double Header, starting at 15:00 CST. The matches picked are United Kingdom GaRpY vs Poland av3k and Netherlands draven vs France GoHLinK. By the way, if you like Joe and Quakelive, make sure you'll be watching Eurosport 2 tomorrow evening!

There will be France strenx vs Norway plaZmaa at 13:15 CST. Then a late match opposing Germany reload to Lithuania fire_bot starting at 13:30 CST. At 14:30 CST, just before Lithuania GUard vs United Kingdom zsx, we will have another late match with Sweden Spart1e and Italy spartaz0rd. We encourage streamers who are interested to contact us for these games, and the later ones!

Finally a sad news, as another Swedish player asked to be removed from the tournament. Sweden Daniel "a1r-r41d" Götell left us and, unfortunately, it's now too late to replace him.

The placement will be arranged through a series of Divisional Placement Cups followed by a Divisional Placement Group Stage. All the spots of the Premier Division and most of the Select Division are already filled.


Also, a lot of cups are already planned until February 2011, starting with a TDM 2v2 Cup on next Tuesday! It will be followed by a CA Invite Cup on the 16th of November and the 9th 1v1 Open Cup on the 17th. See the detailed schedule from the announcement for an exhaustive list of the coming cups (note that the "Divisional Placement Cup I" was delayed to Sunday 7th November).

And finally, Quake-Live.tv announced that they will cover most of these events if not all!

Posted by xou @ 11:11 CDT, 17 October 2010 - iMsg
Scheduled: 10:00 CDT, 17 October 2010 to 14:00 CDT, 17 October 2010
Schedule: Passed

The management of the IEM5 European Championship has decided to add an additional 6 slots to the European Championship group stage. This means that the groups will now have 5 players each rather than 4. The reason for this is to allow those players who had missed their national qualifiers for various reasons to have another chance to qualify. The Last Chance Qualifier 2 is taking place Sunday, October 17th at 09:00 CST (Sign up).

The additional 6 slots will be awarded in 2 separate cups held in mid-October. The top 3 players of each cup will advance directly to the group stage. It is allowed to sign up for both cups.
