The Crossfire Challenge 6 is upon us! As previously announced the event is taking place in the WZZRD Gaming Cafe in Enschede on May 1st to May 3rd. The long awaited prize announcement is now upon us!
The ET tournament will get a €5000 prizepurse as it did last time with a €45 entry fee. The Call of Duty tournament will be a CoD2 triggered tournament, this (as has already been known) means that CoD teams simply pay via paypal and then if the magic number of 16 teams isn't reached then the tournament wont go ahead and everyone gets their money back. 5 teams have currently signed up for this with 2 others showing interest. There will not be a CoD4 tournament due to the low turnout at the last event and the clash with LAN79, which is also running CoD4.
I'm very glad to announce that YCN-Hosting will be coming on board as title sponsor for the event. Starzi & EYJohn were both admins at the last event and decided to ramp up YCN's involvement with the event and we're very glad to have not only their support but support from two people who have grown to become integral within the ET Community over the past year.
Payments! This is still not quite ready as I search for a more efficient method of doing this, however the payment option will open on March 1st and run for 2 weeks to March 15th, in this period anyone wish to attend will have to signup and payment their entrance fee so start getting yourself ready.
You can book your accomodation through WZZRD again so be sure to log on to WZZRD.nl.
Last event we ran a 3on3 tournament on the Sunday for those that had been knocked out, it was a great success and this time we're thinking about either 3on3 or RTCW your feedback would be greatly appreciated! We're expecting to be able to give teams more game time than at CC5 also. We will also ensure that all ET matches are played on the same monitor as requested post CC5.
Update - Due to a large volume of requests from the CoD community, we will also offer a triggered CoD4 tournament. This is exactly the same as the CoD2 tournament, you pay via paypal to [email protected] making sure to make it optional to accept the payment (i.e. I can click refund instantly if its cancelled at no cost) and the entrance fee will be turned around into prizemoney. So if 16 teams signup there'd be a 4000 Euro tournament. And yes we'd find a way for teams to play in both tourneys
Not the Widescreens again pls! :D
and try to have al the bug fixes etc installed before people start playing, sound bug was annoying last time at the start :D
And how many teams are you aiming for to attend?
cod4 > cod5
but CoD4 is getting huge atm with ESL Pro-Series in Germany and the UK + i36 etc...
we (rockit) also turned back to CoD4 (from CoD5)
but meanwhile my whole team wants to go back to CoD4, and so do i :)
message to hayaa : no, I will play this time, not you faler! :P
shame on you toss ! :(
no cod4 :(
Make CC events more ET and RTCW lans and maybe if the new Wolfenstein will be great take that one along the way.
But keep ET QW out if it.
So that at least every ET and RTCW team has a event they can attend to.
Keep up the work with this lan.
BURN ETQW BURN IT ONLY GAME ET 4LIFE
ET BIGGER THAN WORLD 4EVER
And i said ET AND RTCW blind retarded fuck.
16 6on6 ? WHAT!
we all paid a fair bit of money too (except kih) and got little prizes so it must have eased the money flow a bit !
Agree with crumbs !
This in my opinion also results from the RtCW Teams that are 'active' or atleast exist not wanting to spend "that much money" + the trip to Enschede for just a Sunday of playing. I know its not really possible to change that so i think it'll come down to the 3on3 @ Sunday.
You better be prepared already, jwz.
in this room, you can find the people that care about you
(yes i'm skilled at paint)
prices rank 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 ?
2500 - 1000 - 750 - 250 ?
when is the prize money paid out
we want to pay on bank account, can you give me in a private message the account number. thnx
A simple writeconfig or going trough the server logs should suffice to check.
and for the rifles, how nerdish can they be to check to rifles shots all day long :D
theres two types of scripts:
19:19 anonymaus • unbind i
19:19 anonymaus• bind i "vstr random"
19:20 anonymaus• set random "vstr random_1"
19:20 anonymaus• set random_1 "set random vstr random_2; seta cg_crosshairY 39; seta cg_crosshairX 5; echo East"
19:20 anonymaus• set random_2 "set random vstr random_3; seta cg_crosshairY 64; seta cg_crosshairX -17; echo Brama"
19:20 anonymaus• set random_3 "set random vstr random_1; seta cg_crosshairY 0; seta cg_crosshairX 0; echo Normal"
and scripts using a combination of something like that
19:24 anonymaus• bind z "cl_yawspeed 900; +left; wait 25; -left; cl_yawspeed 140"
+ jumps, crouch, etc attached to them.
theres no pitchspeed involved, as the cmds +lookup and +lookdown are missing when i look for them in ETpro, so they are actually aiming on one axis!
no win for h2k this time :'(
should arrive at the end of the week
I just help u to win ur duels!!1
And no CoD4 tourney wtf? Looks like this will be a ET event only.
/fail
So that's more than 5 teams IMO. And that CoD2 news has been around for months, so 5 teams in ~3 months is quite poor imo.

Quakecon 2008 attracted 24 teams though (16 PC and 8 on Xbox 360), which is pretty nice for a dead game.
so when u get crt = all get crt...
iron ftw!!!
ashame cod4 is no show, i miss this venue :< was my first ever overseas event, ashame i still havent had the 2nd chance of attending.
GL to all competitors
ps. 3on3 gogo !
Got testweek right after
SK? mouz? fnatic? MYM?
lol
thought you meant ET :XD
But ET has ButtonBashers! :D

Does AA still have chance?
There is lan Antwerp in april .. but some teams prefer CC6
Team Fortress 2, Americas Army and ET:QW should be given the same chance, though I doubt they'll place 16 teams.
swine IS AWESOME :D
/caps
If players of ET/ETQW/wolf2? won't cooperate, their community won't be never good rival for cod/cs comunity.

edit: Nobody sees things from the game itself because as soon as it's mentioned here, it gets slammed down. Just a shame it's slammed by people who tried the game in beta when it was REALLY shit, and comp didn't have promod, or atleast a decent version of promod.
what about the large volume of requests from the RtCW community ? :P
rtcw would be nice as well (as crumbs said last day cup or wateva) if the people want to come :o
C U THERE! :)
edit: fail pw.de btw
we are taking a cabin, so maybe you could stay with us there (green + red (?) + management :o) )
maybe you don't see lots of rtcw teams now... but i think if you get rtcw 2 cdc, people will start training for it :).
And like evreyone knows RTCW > ET
can pay everything myself
felt rly demotivated after beeing ignored :)
... :_D
without me this time !
Its up to the community now! Thanks to Stuart for giving the trigger tournament a chance
because u have to many cod and et games running at the same time, and i believe it will be to hard to fit schedules to ET / CoD
but, check with adacore :)
I was always kinda surprised they are not overheating in those boxes above the tables :-P
IMO wzzrd is a shitty lan center (shit PC's, wrong drivers installed, and not answering email), but atleast we had the YCN guys to fix it. And the place is just too small for an event like CC, no place for moving around when there are people at the bar and specs watching some players.
Those are also the first PCs I have seen that crashed with the realtime usb switch thingy. (Yes Adacore, you never saw any that worked with it :D)
you should've pick some day which aint any kind of celebration day.
