The Don Baker ETL Cancer Research Cup

"Registration Fee: $30 per team" ??????????????????????????????????????????????????

yes it's $30 per team

yee +1

Someone is trying to do something for a good cause, and the only thing you can do is sit behind your computer and criticise them. I'd like to see the day you make a difference to anyones life.

Grow up.

Not trying to get money & we will publish books.

Registration is not open as of yet because were attempting to set it up so that all the $ for the charity is given straight from the teams to the charity.

yes, lets not trust a league that doesn't allow a single caught hacker to play. N1.

With servers provided from a server hosting company, ETL's sponsor.

It's not that much, but I doubt you'll attract a lot of EU-teams (if at all).

lol @ hackers who say bl to a charitable event

Like 32 teams would attend this.

If you actually want to get some money you shouldnt have done an ET-Tournament and surely not one based in america.

Working on that right now.

I can promise you nobody will have to send anything until I can assure them that everything is legit.Hence the reason for the pre register which requires no money whatsoever.

Ideally what I would like is a way to eliminate us as the middle man to where we have no dealings with the money just the organization of the event.If I have to pay an outside firm out of my own pocket to handle the money,then so be it.

I have been in contact with several people & still hashing out the details.If I cannot assure the community that this is legit I'll never open the registration.

As for my own validity, you can ask any player from NA that knows me (aside from the cheaters I've banned) & they will tell you I go out of my way to help this community & have helped many of them with numerous issues & projects.I run a small NA based league thats nothing less than a labor of love.I've never asked a single one of them for anything in return.I do it because of my love for the game & the community.I've even helped a few smaller ET leagues to get on their feet.I openly make layouts for their websites & help them with any design issues they have. I would not do all these things if I were out to "swindle" the community.

Great suggestion

If it comes down to it & the other options I'm working on do not pan out, that is a possibility barring his approval.

hahahaha

:DDDDDDDDD

hahah :DD

Most charities advertisement campaigns ask for just £3 p/m over here - that'd give you 179 months :O) Every lill' helps...

doe is gewoon wtf =/

Yes, you can. http://www.gatewayforcancerresearch.org/donations.cfm and click donate online

Honestly if I were trying to scam people it wouldn't include a 5 year old free game.

As I have stated several times, registration will not open until a method of payment that the community is comfortable with is setup, weather that be through the charity itself or a neutral party such as crossfire.

I had a lengthy conversation with the lady from Gateway for Cancer Research yesterday & all the proper paperwork is being filled & all proper avenues are being taken.

Please feel free to contact them if you have any doubts
