Important Message About the Map Pools
With QuakeCon 2016 happening in August I want to make sure that players looking to practice the QuakeCon maps are not turned off by the NADC map pools. Both the current Spring season and upcoming Summer season will feature at least six of the maps from the QuakeCon 2016 map pool. I understand that some players will only want to play the QuakeCon maps, and I would like to remind those players that map selection for the events is drop-drop.

1st Place $35.00 USD
2nd Place $10.00 USD
3rd Place $5.00 USD

North American Duel Cup prize pools are made possible by community donations | http://paypal.me/duelcup

The NADC has been around for over a year, and after successfully running monthly cups it is making the transition to a seasonal format. Each season features six duel cups and the season playoffs. Points are awarded every cup to players who finish in the top-16. The farther a player makes it the more points they earn. Players with the most points at the end of the season will earn themselves a seed in the season playoffs. Player rankings for the current season can be viewed here.

Looking for Admins and Casters
If you are interested in helping out with one or more events behind the scenes or live on stream I would love to hear from you. Admin duties are very simple. Make sure that games are being played in a timely manner and respond to requests in the #duelcup IRC channel. Usually the events run themselves, but having even one extra person helping makes everything that much smoother. If you are interested in casting and you own a decent microphone I'd love to hear from you regardless of your experience. You can contact me directly on steam, #duelcup irc, or through a private message on these forums.
