News
There are only few tournaments with worthy prizes in the ET world, CDC or Quakecon for example. But that’s to change now! Ladies and gentlemen, I present you a Czech tournament for both Czech and foreign teams with total prizemoney of 5000 Euro. This all was possible thanks to the NecroRaisers association in co-operation with Expekt.com for whom this is the second cup of this type. The first one was a CoD4 tournament. Signups start today. But that’s not all, for more information about this unique event read on!
Schedule:
Signups start: 9.9.2008
Signups close: depends on clans‘ interest
(more details after the signups are over)
Site: http://turnaj.necroraisers.com/et/
Format: 6on6
Config: cb6
System: clans will be divided into two divisions – Amateur and Proffessional (groups, playoff in form of single elimination - no LB)
Teams: planned 64 (32 amateur + 32 proffessional)
Prizemoney:
Pro Div: 3500€ ( 1500€, 1000€, 500€)
Am Div: 1500€ ( 750€, 500€, 250€)
EDIT: if will be more than 64 teams, prizemoney will be higher. if less, prizemoney lower
Rules
Match:
Captains of playing teams must idle in #nrclan (IRC channel of the tournament) at least one hour before the match. Idling there during the whole tournament would certainly help to arrange matches and other things smoothly!
Every team chooses its map from the maplist, starting as attackers on it. The first map to be played is chosen by the cointoss winners at the start of the match. If the score is 2 - 2 after two maps there’s another cointoss. the winner starts eliminating maps from the maplist. The team that lost in the cointoss then chooses the side on the deciding map.
The winning team of the match is obliged to inform the admins about the final score on IRC. List of the admins is at the end of the article. Should there be any disputes screenshots will be used, we recommend you to take them during the whole tournament.
Maplist:
sw_goldrush_te, supply, radar, sp_delivery_te, bremen_b2, sw_battery
Tags:
Every team must have in advance its easily identifiable tag that the players will unconditionally use for the whole tournament, fakenicks are forbidden and a player whose data doesn’t match that in the sign-up sent by the team’s captain can be disqualified from the tournament. Mercs aren’t allowed.

EDIT: There's no Israeli money on the website + I saw that you got to be over 18 to register there, it's ok to lie? :D or only 18+ can play
so nice! =D
VAE will play aswell :D
REWIND WON OVER IDLE IN PRAC ONCE
wouldnt the very skilled teams just enter into the amatuer division to face easier teams and still win the same amount as what the pro division will win
2. 'Floors' lol! :D
and dumb haha
i mean... the idea is pretty great, but that i mentioned could be prolly a prob for someone :s
naablets
what happened to the necroraisers 2on2 CoD4 cup with holidays as first place prize??
btw make this main news! :s
I'd only add some more money to the professional tournament prizepool from the amateur one, because if the prizepool is as big for both then who would want to play in the professional tournament?
some better players might even consider playing the amateur tournament with fake nicks and new guids to win some easy money
they started playing ET today but are pretty good coz they are cs-pros :o)
Dividing the teams into to divisions is the hardest part and I am sure you will get a lot of whine because of "stupid" picks :<
Imo lan finals are must too :)
€: adblock blocked it :D maybe add that to your news^^
€2: well if I click the banner it just gives me the standard page but no registration page... sure its working like that?
Pro Division: 3500 € (Because of the mentioned issues)
Amateur Division: 1500€ (Still 500€ more than ESL EMS)
Mappool: Oasis in; Bremen out
so there will always be deciders = excitment :P
keep up the good work and have fun to all teams!
you must be kidding me :D
* make 1 league or lower the prices of 2nd league and higher the prices of 1st league
* make double brackets at playoffs (single bracket => more luck involved imo)
8Bits FiF Green are certainly gonna play this cup btw
yep or it could be just double elimination from the beginning aswell like in cadre's Qcup
also if there'll be group stage, will it be 8x4 groups or 4x8 groups? 8x4 groups is a bit more random, but 4x8 groups takes ages to complete (7 weeks if 1 match / week)
8 groups of 4 teams
after that => 1st plays vs 2nd in double eliminiation bracket
haha! u must be 18!
So I'd need to enable cookies? otherwise I fail to see how it is supposed to be tracking that.
gl
good initiative anyway
usually i dont rly care but this is about money...and imo you should punish them harder than just a "ban"...this is serious staff and if you cheat you should go to law
if possible
be skillled !
edit: The prizemoney is so big that some of the oldchool teams might be even interested in this..
+ these organizers are not russians so I guess you can trust on them
So just have the amateur league :)
Same against cheaters.
Especially if you plan to make 32 amateur and 32 pro teams.
It kinda destroys the idea of Professional imo.
Every clanmember has to join expekt.com via the link and bet 300 czk. Then the clan can get registered.
After the tournament the player can get the 300czk back if he wants, otherwise it will be donated to Unicef?
Need a team AVI !
Pay upfront. Give some Czechs my bank account details. Then wait for them to give me my money back. Can that sound anymore like a scam? >_<
2500 euros per division every team want to play in amatuers ;)
and split the amateur + pro division
make a big one with 64 teams
anyway well done respect guys ;)
new poll: do you trust this?
its like promotion of that betting website (which seems pretty big)
And i sure as hell dont mean the good way!
but gl getting those teams :p
Also, I already have account @ expekt.com(.pl) so I'm not allowed to play in your cup ?
They need the referral fees.
P.s. if you already have an expekt account i'd say you should send proof and they'll have to make allowances.
