As stated in my
previous post, the
Czech Quake guys are in the process of organising the
Euro Open Cup. The
deadline to sign up was set for today. But because the scheduling of the first games will begin next week, there are a few extra days left for anyone else who wishes to enter. The new deadline is set on the
24th October at midnight!
The deadline for registration is Sunday, 19th of October 2008 and you are free to sign up on
czechquake@gmail.com (Example: Euro Open Cup - Quake 4, Pavel "Hawr1x" Kymla, CZ). The rules are quite basic: You must be present on the official channel of the tourney, you should be in contact with your opponents to schedule your games and of course, you can't cheat.
The
basic groups will be announced on Saturday 25th of October and players will be free to play their matches from the 26th of October. After the group stage, a
single elimination playoff will take place.
Right now, there are only 11 players signed up for
Quake 4 and 33 players for
Quake Live. You can check out the current sign-ups list on
quake.cz. Considering the size of the current communities for these games it's quite a good turn-out, but we would like to see some more players in this season of the Euro Open Cup and the first season ever for Quake Live. The
Rules will be updated during this week.
