To sign up for the draft write !sign in #ctfpickup. You can only sign up if you've played 5 games in the channel. This is necessary to determine a proper rating for the team-generation.

On Sunday (15.12.) at 13:00CET the check-in will start and last for one hour. Everybody who signed up previously should check-in to finally save his spot. Especially people who signed up after the 64 player limit should check in, because in case someone with a save spot doesn't show up other people will get his spot.
Note: The order matters, the earlier someone signs up the more likely the chance to get a spot.

To check in write !check in #ctfpickup.

After the check-in the teams will be generated based on the players rating. Once that is done, the teams will be announced and the draft can start.

The draft will be played in a cup mode. That is, we'll have a group stage and a single elimination bracket stage. The 2 best teams of each group will go into the bracket stage.

The whole tournemant is played Best-of-3.

The map pool for this draft will be the one voted by the community. We will announce this map pool tomorrow evening (5.12.).

To make the whole thing more interesting the winner team will get 4x 3-Month Premium QL tokens (Thanks Drayan for sponsoring these!).

Sign-Ups: 9.12. - 14.12.
Check-In: 13:00CET 15.12.
Start: 14:00CET 15.12. (once the teams are sorted)

AlexeyA:
"Hi everybody! My name is Aleksey. Beginning with February 2013 I am sponsoring the 125 FPS QuakeLive League (http://125fps.com) and provide almost all of the prize money from my own pocket. Why do I do this? Because like many of us I played the first Quake and even Duke Nukem)) on lan during my childhood. Time goes by and Im a grown-up man now with all the obligations that come along with it. Yet still I want the Quake community to flourish and reward me and all fans of the game with great matches, tournaments, reports etc.
When there are no tournaments with prize money the interest of players and fans decreases and thats what Im trying to combat. Im sure Im not the only one. The community has a lot of adult, successful people, as well as many young people who fell in love with the game.
I want to ask the community to help build on the foundation I and the 125fps team have laid and increase the prizes in the coming leagues. Fundraising is nothing new and is employed to collect funds for all kinds of events. Im sure that many of you will be happy to chip in a sum thats admissible for yourselves and even happier to follow the tournament you yourself made a contribution to!
Below are various ways to donate money for prize funds of 125fps.com leagues.
The reputation of the 125fps leagues guarantees for a fair distribution of funds. I myself will continue to contribute about 31500p(~1000$) every month.
I propose the following prize money distribution (31500RUR + donations)
<>
15% of the donations will go towards the organization and coverage of the league, in particular recruitment of streamers.
Additionally I suggest limiting the prize pool of every league by 3500$. If there is more than 2500$ worth of donations the surplus funds get transfered to the next league. The biggest donators will be listed below every leagues prize pool (voluntary).
The fundraising will start with the announcement of the next league."
