Hi guys, I want to announce the upcoming 3v3 Clan Arena International Tournament in Quake1 (Quakeworld). This is the 3rd season of this prestige league and the best thing about it is that you get to play against teams from South America (Chile, Brazil, Argentina), North American Teams (USA/Canada) and of course from Europe. Why Quakeworld? Well, while it is true that the community in Quakeworld diminishes every year by a few players, there is still a decent size community that supports the game and leagues. Also, this tournament is clan arena, so if you are new to Quake and don't want to get pummeled every time you spawn, this might be a good way to learn the ropes and maybe venture into Deathmatch later on. In Clan Arena you start off with full armor and health (200armor,100health) and you start with all the weapons. Your team has to go out and kill the other team and when you do, you win that round, best of 9 wins the series, you play 4 series in total. Also the great thing about Quakeworld as compared to other games, is that when you play internationally ping is tolerable because modern servers now have antilag, which means that you can use lightning gun and boomstick as if you had low ping and this makes matches possible against teams/players that have higher ping. Also, the game is easy to download, all you have to do is go to www.nquake.com and download/install and that is it, nothing more, everything else you need is included. Our tournament consists of 6 maps. A2 (Atlantis), DM2, DM3, q1edge (quake2 map), q3dm6qw (Campgrounds-Quake3/Qlive Map), and q1_q3dm13 (Lost World-Quake3/Quakelive Map). We also are planning to have the map from quakelive called Almost Lost in there, just polishing up some spawn bugs. If you are interested, stop by irc at quakenet.org and join #qwca

Hello fellow ESR readers! My name is claw, I'm new to the site and I would like to mention something very exciting that is being organized in the scene of Quakeworld. I am the admin of the Fusion QWCA League which basically started from scratch. I loaded up Quake1 after seeing all the new updates that have been made from the community and it made me realize that we haven't had a clan arena league in a while. Now this was just a small venture to get a few clans in USA since thats where I play mostly. But after venturing into different networks and clans I decided to make it a world wide affair.

In the span of 2 weeks, this has gone from rumor, to webpage, to getting servers up in USA, Europe, Brazil, Chile, Australia. The league is setup so that each clan in each division plays primarily against clans in the division, but of course to spice things up were going to have intercontinental play where every month 1 or 2 matches will be played. That means a clan from USA might play a clan from Brazil, or a clan from Europe or a clan from Australia.

Also we are working on a current clan arena mod that is going to have nice nice nice goodies. This mod is just being tailored for league play which has nice options. There is a nice variety of maps to be played, some which range from the original quake1 maps, a quake 2 map, a quake 3 map, and a few others. So everyone that plays any other game should give this a try so we can have lots of teams and players. My goal is to try to have an organized league so that maybe perhaps we can get recognized and have serious competitions sponsored, its a long shot but this is where it starts.
