Event: QNC'08
On January 21 Quake.cz crew started Nations Cup for all series of Quake. The idea was perfect, but realization wasn't. Before the tournament started, we faced our first problem which was "Who will actually admin the tournament?". The problem was solved pretty quickly (thanks to the activity of Czech admins) and for each quake serie we picked admins as follows:QuakeWorld was admined by famous Czech player and admin Johnny_cz, who flawlessly took care of QuakeWorld.
Quake 2 was held by server q2scene.net and Nations DeathMatch League and this was admined by Slovak player wision.
Quake 3 admined by me ( Legie) since noone wanted to admin 24 teams and I had lot of free time, I took the position of the head admin.
Quake 4 was Hawr1x's job even thought that in the end he didn't have too much work with it.
Tournament started in late January and ended yesterday 23.6.2008. Here are the final standings:
QuakeWorld:
1. Finland
2. Netherlands
3. Sweden
Quake 2:
1. Finland
2. Sweden
3. Poland
Quake 3:
1. Sweden
2. Poland
3. Czech republic
Quake 4:
Quake 4 Nations Cup was cancelled due to inactivity of all players. The only team which was willing to play was team Sweden and we really appreciate their activity.
I would like to thank to all admins of this tournament who helped to realize the idea of battle between European countries. Next, I'd like to thank eJo for his great work with GTV and demo recording. To shebin who provided the GTV and partial admining and also to polish players Thrawn and mov9k who were substituting me.
There were 28 countries signed to the Nations Cup and all together there was 67 teams in all Quake series where total number of players was about 480.
One more thing.. Czech player and moviemaker silu is working on a fragmovie from Quake 3 tournament, so stay tuned!
