We at Cluex are proud to announce the sign-ups for the tournament we have all been waiting for! A 1-versus-1 deathmatch tournament with the fifth biggest money prize-pool in the history of Unreal Tournament 2004!
The first stage of the tournament will be composed of the group stages, whereby the top two players of each group pass onto a double-elimination bracket for the playoffs. The group stage matches will be played over a period of around two weeks, with the playoffs taking up to a couple of days. Each division's matches will take place on alternate days and times. If you're interested in what you've read so far, please read below for the more intricate details!
Division 0 (in total: $700) => 1st: $350; 2nd: $210; 3rd: $140
Division 1 (in total: $700) => 1st: $350; 2nd: $210; 3rd: $140
Division 2 (in total: $400) => 1st: $200; 2nd: $120; 3rd: $80
Division 3 (in total: $200) => 1st: $100; 2nd: $60; 3rd: $40
Division 4 (in total: $100) => 1st: $50; 2nd: $30; 3rd: $20
Division NA (in total: $100) => 1st: $50; 2nd: $30; 3rd: $20
Winner of frag-contest => $50
In total, the mentioned prize-poll equals $2250. The other part of money is available for the needs such as servers, which we are unfortunately lacking. In case we will manage to provide those without use of a budget, the shares of the prize-poll will be bigger for specifed divisions.
05.07.2014 (Saturday) at 20:00 CET till 19.07.2014 (Saturday) at 23:59 CET over here: http://cluex.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=3222
With the sign-ups opened, we will try to lively divide players onto divisions they belong to in a special thread. Worth to mention is that this topic (http://cluex.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=3223) is opened for any kind of discussions and suggestions (whether to move players division or to keep him there) and is a draw of divisions placement.
Worth to mention is that we are organising a frag contest, in which a winner is capable of winning $50. Rules are simple - if you feel like you made an awesome frag or created an outstanding action, feel free to share the timestamp from your demo (we are also accepting already made short movies). Everyone can enter this contest, but the frag must have happened during the tournament. Do not give up too early, you can still be the winner in this tournament!
We hope that the cup formula has encouraged you to take part in what is, most likely, the last (big) Unreal Tournament event. We look forward to seeing you on the fields of battle!

You should probably mention where the prizepool comes from. Went through the threds on cluex.org, and it seems at least most of it comes from donations.
Either way, cheers UT players, this sounds fantastic.
