Vita Nova is CoD4 only afaik, a league site created by the community to replace the CB&ESL ones.

Just so you are aware Vita Nova is not a league at all.

sick lan but rather short notice for orgs
▼
Seanza 13 Mar 2010, 19:24
7 weeks isn't bad.
Parent

Pansy 13 Mar 2010, 19:28
take in to account, iseries is coming up soon so most will be rather short for money
Parent

Seanza 13 Mar 2010, 19:30
Yeah but whether this LAN is in 7 weeks or 17 weeks will make no difference for a lot of teams.
Parent
▼
Pansy 13 Mar 2010, 19:31
yes it does :D

Seanza 13 Mar 2010, 19:33
They'll spend the same amount of money, though.
Parent

Pansy 13 Mar 2010, 19:35
point being flights from the uk/holland to Copenhagen are far from cheap and neither is staying there, enterance isnt all the cheap either it does end up adding up to a fair amount and with how close iseries is now and that cic7 has just gone. its a fair bit of money for orgs / teams to be able to pay out. Im not taking anything away from the event, i think that anything that keeps cod going is amazing but its just awkward timing.

Not all orgs give full support. Infused, for example, don't : )

e: Infact, I think only Dignitas, fnatic & Reason give full support to their cod4 teams.

1, infused dont even have a cod team currently and probably wont for that event.
2, infused were a amazing org and provided full support for all of the lans i played with them at.
3, just read tek9 if you think the times are far from a issue.

Seanza 13 Mar 2010, 19:41
The times are fine, people on tek9 are whining just like they normally do (same as this website).

Also, I wasn't taking a dig at Infused so don't get defensive, secondly you must have been part of the only team to get full support from them ^^

the people "whining" on the forums are the ones who will probably be attending the event so its not just whine, its valid input (which is different to this website).

As i said, not taking anything away from the event but for 32teams in 8 weeks is a hard thing to do, even without iseries being so close.

I'm sure it'll get the turnout it needs.

Sainted 13 Mar 2010, 20:26
What does it matter where the money comes from? Fact is, the earlier you can book your tickets, the cheaper they will be.
Parent
▼
Seanza 13 Mar 2010, 20:34
Yeah but not many orgs provide full support like that :P

vanner 15 Mar 2010, 06:42

PS: Edit the stuff I told you!!!
