Multiplay's i32 LAN is well underway, with just the final of the Enemy Territory: Quake Wars tournament remaining to be played. With only 4 teams entering the competition it took place in a double elimination format, with Dignitas defeating Greek Operation Forces in the Upper Bracket final on Refinery. With GROF then defeating {SAS} with easy to secure their place in the grand final, and a guarentee of £750 for 2nd place.
The final will see the 2 teams battling it out for £2000 & 6 Saphire graphics cards, courtesy of Activision and Sapphire, and will be shoutcast live at 19.30 CET by TosspoT and Deman, and can be accessed through either the QuadV or Multiplay website.

ps: prøv å ikke fuck opp nå da marius. (English: Gl athex!)
really expensive for anyone outside the uk, and pretty expensive for those within
but this was way to early for the first ever etqw lan. looking forward to cdc4 though.
I take it they not aware of the importance of this time on this particular day then...
11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month, not hard to remember no?
they set around 12 minutes on salvage, we didn't manage to beat it, but got near last objective atleaST>(

ashame we had to replay, but i hope u understand that fullholding 6v5 isn't that hard :) - it was the admins dicision, we didn't sugest it and we were told they had decided to replay early in the round.
I hope that you understand that its nigh on impossible to do 2 fullholds in a row on Salvage even when opponent has 5 for 1/2 the time.
I don't blame you at all for wanting to replay, I don't think its fair that you had to play with 5, but it punishes us for something which wasn't at all to do with our team.
I suggest that you reread the stuff that I write before trying to make out that I've said something which I didn't. Even with that fullhold Dignitas still had a much greater chance of winning anyway.
so its just too bad for us that we are playing with 5v6? sounds like you don't care if its 6v1 or 6v6 u just wanna win without caring if its fair or not.
I think that the round should have been restarted at the start not later on, or senji should have made sure PB was working in warmup so that it could be fixed before we started.
Yes the admin should have said half way through; which I admit was very poor admining. However it happened and theres nothing that can be done about it... basically shit happens, but shame it was for that amount of money from your perspective...
I wanted Dignitas to kick your ass anyway just for the record :P
I don't mind personally, it was my first time on LAN, so was great :P We learnt a lot playing together here as well, so we don't mind losing so much.
never got to speak to senji really, he's a bit more quiet than the others :<
And admin should have say it earlier because its quite shit if u play gdf 2 times after each other.. tactics etc :(
Admins demo
Edit - link doesn't work I'll try and upload somewhere later
Was a nice game to see live
They did a good job after the restart though =)
gg, entertaining to watch
