this news looks much better than my one, n1!....
QL 1on1 > 4on4
I guess thats why 1on1 is extreme masters as major title
Parent
oh esl promising rewards once again :D
season 4 money will come, that it is late is unacceptable and unfortunate but nothing we can do about
Parent
omg money
if a team needs a player that only can play on friday/saturday (till 22.00) let me know :D

HoN > DotA
ET prizes went up :o
I heard you haven't paid up for the last 2 seasons
season IV only (which will still come) while season5 is not finished so that cant count :)
Parent
Season 3 money is still "coming"... So season 3, 4 and 5 havent been paid yet
Parent
season 3 didnt feature an Enemy Territory tournament. If you speak of season 2, that has been fully payed already, if you think you did not receive what you deserved either contact the person you gave the bank details to or your teamleader (if you arent).
Parent
Try paying the money from the last seasons instead.
retarded imo , why doing season 6 when 4 is still unpaid and 5 is still running ... btw its taking even longer then cc5 money 8|
As if you need the money to pay the bills. Be happy to be able to win something out of your hobby instead of bitching about late paying.
Parent
i took 80k euro as a loan from my bank to buy myself a flat, some extra 40€ from esl wouldnt be bad :D
Parent
lans coming and would be cool to have some extra euros to spend in enschede and yea i dont have to pay the bills but those 40 euros would cover half of my flight tickets price
Parent
season5 generally has finished. only ET is late due to the lanfinal as exception =)
Parent
if you compare it with crossfire competitions please remember: every player has to pay 25 euro (?) to take part at a crossfire competition while the ESL tournaments are completly FREE (even premium requirement has been removed for et tournaments years ago).

you will get the money like every other team/player before. ESL is NOT clanbase which could not pay all bills and cannot announce prize money for euro cup or other competitions any more because the do not have anything to give away..

i know it is not good to wait some months for your money. but nobody of the et admin crew can influence it. there are some admins who spent hundreds of hours the last months to let this competition run on good way. you should be thankful for it - and this is also one reason why the prize money got increased for enemy territory. but it must be a special problem of the et community that you mainly like to "flame" :D
Parent
I am thankful and i rly appreciate esl admins work , and its not like community like to flame but last time i had any info regarding esm 4 money was mail from 3 months ago so "flame" is caused by lack of information or communication between admins and teams. Also i have asked mister about month ago about some info , he was supposed to ask some1 but he simply didn't or forgot. Your comment is the first information about what we can expect but its still not telling us how long we are suppsoed to wait.
Parent
repje actually got the money I think, some weeks ago
no he didnt
Parent
atleast he gave the bank account details to the admin
Parent
ye, but they said "you will get it later this month"
Parent
You won - correct me if I'm wrong - one tournament with prizemoney? It's not like you are member of a CPL team that flew to the USA or something like that. The money will be sent and you slowly should have gotten aware that ESL pays out pretty late, though they at least pay. In one or two months you can be happy about your hard earned ~80€.
I would not run any new ET tournament without a proper anti-cheat tool. The "no pb" times made the worst in ET's history - everyone even players who never thought of cheating have at least tested it once. I hope you're taking the initiative and make ET better again, else this tournament will be as bad as all in the past months.
we actually never allowed anyone to play without PB. It is only Clanbase who have that rule in their rulesets. Unfortunately 90% of the matches would be cancelled & deleted if we would be strict about it.
Parent
we don't have it in our rulesets either, we do the same like you.

and we played without PB in ESL vs your team while you were playing :)
Parent
i know. Atleast you have allowed it for NC. Thats enough of a rule imo :D
Parent
allowing it doesn't mean it's in the rules, else it would mean esl ladders and cups have no pb rule aswell since 50+% of these matches on both CB + ESL are being played without PB, the anti-cheat is pure shyt nowadays anyway.

(i dont see a problem of letting clans use no pb when both teams agree, since it's their agreement)
Parent
I wouldnt allow it if it wasnt the whole community wanting it. PB is a flaw ofcourse but a competetive scene cant grow or survive for long without any anticheat (imo).
Parent
True, it has its advantages and disadvantages, PB is pretty ridiculous when you see how much they get payed yearly to support ET, it's around 35,000, and they never detected a private cheat :D
Parent
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world
Money, get away
Get a good job with more pay and your O.K.
Money it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I'll buy me a football team
Money get back
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off my stack.
Money it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet
Money it's a crime
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
Money so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're
giving none away

"HuHuh! I was in the right!"
"Yes, absolutely in the right!"
"I certainly was in the right!"
"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!"
"Yeah!"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"
"I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2. He was asking
why he wasn't coming up on freely, after I was yelling and
screaming and telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely.
It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out"
Parent
NICE :DDD
