(Ho-hum. Is this thing on?)
Lately, you may have had more time to
get to the choppah get your old .cfg off those dusty floppies in the attic and join a Quake server of your preferred iteration. Maybe even QuakeWorld!
At any rate, many have come back during QWarantine, and that influx of players has given us great activity in the form of the
QuakeCon At Home duel tournament, the newly-started
GetQuad! Nations cup, second season of
HammerTime 2v2, fourteenth season of
Thunderdome...
After a two year hiatus, it seemed like a good time to have ourselves a good ol' showmatch again : thus cometh QuakeWorld AllStars, 2020 edition.
First, there will be a draft show where two TDM luminaries will draft their teams from a pool of returning and active stars, such as
Xantom,
Insane,
Grisling,
Milton,
Bps,
Blood_Dog,
BogoJoker,
HangTime,
gLAd,
Bulat,
Blixem ... (more TBD).
Second - these teams will duke it out in a show match comprising
at least the classic TB3 maps for our greatest enjoyment, live on
SuddendeathTV.
So far, the ETA is sometime in october-november while we iron out the details and finalize the player list.
Until then, if you are, or know oldschool TDM players who could be interested in playing, get in touch with Ocoini on the
QuakeWorld Discord, or drop us a DM on
FB or
Twitter to get involved!
