Interview with Anima Gaming CEO whally (15 comments)

( Major News: QL)

Event: AGSS

ESFI World spoke with Anima Gaming's CEO and creative director Josh "whally" Frazier about the new Quake Live league's upcoming Spring Series. In the interview, Josh tells us what we can expect from the new league, which gets underway on March 1st. Now partnered with CSN, the league is poised to give the North American Quake Live scene a much needed boost of energy. He also notes that they do want to eventually expand to Europe.

"I really want to expand to Europe. I know that I can easily provide them with the same amount of opportunities that I have done here in North America. The only thing most people don't realize is that I run AG entirely by myself. I have done this ever since October 2010 at the Quake 3 Masters. In order to expand to Europe, I will need at least a few good organizers and admins to help run things under my supervision."

NOTE: SCHEDULE HAS BEEN CHANGED DUE TO IEM5 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS!

The

Anima Gaming Spring Series: Powered by CSN is all set to start next week for North American Quake Live players and teams! The final schedule and formats have been posted below, so look over them carefully and practice, practice, practice!

In case anyone is confused as to how this series works, I will explain. In order to get to the Championships, a player or team must qualify by becoming the Top 8 team or dueler of their game-mode. Every event, participants will be awarded 2 points per win, 1 point per game played (win or lose), and -1 point per match forfeited. The 8 teams and duelers with the most points before May 10 will be the players advancing to the Championships. This makes it so teams and players have to be solid, active, and consistently practicing to win!

Event: AGSS

As far as anyone is concerned,

Anima Gaming is one of the most driven leagues for Quake at the present time. For Quake 3, we successfully hosted two of the most-viewed events in 2010. Lately, it has all been about our Quake Live weekly showcases for CTF, Duel, and TDM. On behalf of the Anima Gaming staff, we thank you for watching, playing, and supporting our efforts.

As spring comes around, AG has planned a Quake Live Spring Season which will consist of week-by-week events for Duel, TDM, and CTF that will have championship cups for each series. We expect to see a lot of you regulars out there battling for the top spots!

Lastly, I have been thinking about the Quake 3 Masters series and how many players and viewers enjoyed the sweet relief of an "old school" game. Fans cheering for ZeRo4, czm, and Jibo as they showed just what a Quake 3 Master can prove. So I figured why not try to bring that sort of enjoyment to players and viewers again?

I have here a list of custom maps that I would like you ESR readers to discuss and pick which maps you want played in the next AG Q3 Masters Cup (TBA). The top 4 maps will be played alongside hub3aeroq3, ztn3tourney1, and pro-q3tourney4 for a total count of 7 maps in the pool.

Custom Map List

If you have any suggestions for other maps, please make sure to post them with a review and download link for others to vote on. Thank you!
