If you are interested in any of these roles, please contact @DazedSpartan on discord. Thanks!

Additions

• /forfeit to concede defeat in 1v1 or HM.
• ch_hiddenElements (default: "") is a space-separated list of SuperHUD elements to hide. This includes PreDecorate1 to 64 and PostDecorate1 to 64. hud_hide will add to this list and hud_show will remove from this list.
• ch_hiddenElements (default: "") is a space-separated list of SuperHUD elements to hide. this includes custom elements (PreDecorate and PostDecorate) and they can be specified individually, example: PreDecorate3 is the third PreDecorate element of the currently loaded HUD config. hud_hide will add to this list and hud_show will remove from this list example: ch_hiddenElements "Score_NME Score_OWN" hides scores irrespective of the loaded HUD config.
• the LocalTime SuperHUD element displays the local time in the "hh:mm" format.

Changes

• the Chat1-8 SuperHUD elements behave the same as in 1.48 (no con_notifytime/cl_noprint filtering).
• the PowerUpXX_Icon SuperHUD elements will now display holdable items too and the number of PowerUp* SuperHUD element slots was raised from 4 to 8.
• the /kill is now disabled in the following scenarios:
  • CA DA FTAG -> during rounds and countdowns.
  • CTFS HM -> during rounds.
• StatusBar_ArmorIcon isn't visible with 0 armor (like StatusBar_ArmorCount and StatusBar_ArmorBar).
• in OT pauses, the clock will no longer show the total time elapsed since the first OT started.

Fixes

• the UI's mouse sensitivity slider now works with CNQ3.
• leaving a HM match in progress during the countdown of round 2+ wouldn't forfeit.
• the following "items" arguments would fail in a mode script: "-5H", "-25", "-50", "-5A".
• parts of the vote system were stuck on version 1.47. In addition to the 1.48 changes, non-speconly'd spectators can now vote on:
• referee and unreferee items in all game modes (1.48: all modes except 1v1 and HM).
• any item in Duel Arena.
• in the server browser, the server selection now survives rescans and sort key changes.
• /mvd and /autorecord were creating the same demo name over and over (date/time of last match start).
• cg_autoAction demo recording not happening after /autorecord or /mvd was used.
• combined map + mode changes would make clients lose their session data (ref, speconly, etc).
• the forfeiting player can now talk to his opponent during intermission with mutespecs enabled.
• the SuperHUD element AmmoMessage now works in multi-view mode.
• the scoreboard flash that happened right before respawning after a DA round loss.
• "Invalid vote in PassVote: windelay" warning in DA and HM.
• the following commands would crash when run at the server's console (or through rcon): ame, coach, remove.
• the duration of the countdown of the first round in CA is now "warmup" seconds.
• set the win delays of CA, DA and HM back to what they were in 1.48.
• no longer starting demo recording in DA through cg_autoAction.
• no longer displaying "all players ready" in FFA and DA.
• players spawning at the end of round countdowns instead of the start in CA and DA.
• the wrong custom game mode could sometimes be loaded when one's name was the prefix of another e.g. "PUBCTFS" instead of "PUBCTF".
• fullbright player models now work with NTF.
• callvotes for unregistered maps now get immediately rejected.
• ch_drawKeys 2 wasn't displaying in zoomed (multi-)view.
• HM round countdown missing.
• the clock was frozen at 0:00 in sudden death overtimes.

Looking back to the Quake Live days, grinding the game out to stay at the top, traveling overseas for events with much smaller prize pools (than what we see today in QC). Was there ever a point in your life that you considered hanging up the mouse and keyboard for good? What drove you to keep playing?

I was pretty much ready to quit playing since around 2012 when I pursued my MBA, but I would always come back to practice for QuakeCon. Then a few more years later I figured I would be done with Quake, and Overwatch would be my last run in esports... readmore

As it has been announced Sacrifice will be discontinued on the esports circuit, now replaced by 2v2 Team Deathmatch, can you please share with us your thoughts on this mode in general and is there any changes you would be interested to see to this mode?

2v2 seems fun for now and more enjoyable to play than duel. Still any 4v4 mode I would prefer more, because its simply more fun to play as a team, combine abilities and so on. I would like to see changes to health respawn system in 2v2.. readmore

To start off with Dan reflecting back on the year just past, after now securing payout placings at both Quakecon and Dreamhack, what was it like to take home a pot of $18,000+ USD and did you ever think you would be competing for this much money?

I am really happy with my results to get payout places at both events finishing within the top 16 and top 8 at the tournaments gives me a sense of achievement but also lets me know that there is room for improvement and I hope to do better at the tournaments i attend this year... readmore
