In order to better understand the demand and being able to provide the best settings for the cups, we are going to test a new format for the
Quake Live Daily Cups. In a nutshell, we
increased the rank-caps to levels 4, 6, 8 and 10, and removed the free-account map pool from the lowest level. More details below.
Mon: Levels 4 and 8 Tue: Levels 6 and 10 Wed: Levels 4 and 8 Thu: Levels 6 and 10
Time: 14:30 CDT
Prize Distribution: 4$, 2$, 1$, 1$, 0.5$, 0.5$, 0.5$, 0.5$
Format: Bo1 until quarter, bo3 rest.
Map pool: (Premium maps) Aerowalk, Battleforged, Blood Run, Furious Heights, Lost World, Silence, Toxicity
Map picking: pick, pick, drop, drop, drop, drop
During this week, we will monitor the participation and gather further feedback. If you have suggestions for the format, or any other related idea, feel free to post.

Because playing in the level 8 is no fun for someone, who is barely over level 6. E.g. 1551 elo.
Also the premium-map only thing is good.
I hope you gona mix the maps again in the future. Its good for an AVERAGE player to have changing mappools with "pick" first. So you HAVE to learn a lot of maps in order to win.
