As an initiative for communities to further support their game, ESL is launching a competition for the games that are already selected for or could be suitable to add to the EMS.
A total of 19 games and their communities will get the chance to either increase their total prize money or get their game added to the EMS with another whopping €1,000!
This is a unique challenge that will go on for two weeks and is meant to award the most active and endeavouring game community. With your help you can increase the prizemoney for Enemy Territory to €1,750!
How to participate
1) A community poll
- Every gamer has the chance to vote for their favourite game, it includes the current EMS games and those we believe could be the most suitable. Go and vote now for Enemy Territory!
2) Tag your matches
- We have come up with a way to 'tag' your matches which we can then count after the two weeks are up. It is very simple, for every match you play in the European section, in the game that you want the prize money increased or be included in the EMS, you have to add a match statement "4EMS7" (no quotes, no spaces, exactly as it is written). One statement per team and per player in your most played game will be counted.
In a nutshell: create a match in the European section => add 4EMS7 in the match statement => go play.
When the two weeks are up, we will count every vote and tag, combine the two and award the most selected game with €1,000!
The competition starts now, Tuesday 22nd June 21.00hCET, and will end on Tuesday 6th of July at 21.00hCET.

what is this shit ?
You should check out some of the other events ESL hosts, EMS is peanuts :p
5 + 6? (:
also if i win something i dont wanna get it few years later.
have fun with waiting then.
While it is only 150 euros for you, it is 15-20,000 in total
Cheating in free game, zomg.
Prizes in free game, zomg.
Thats the most retarded things thats being said on crossfire every day.
dont blame esl btw. rather play a tournament where you get paid 1 year later instead of playing cups without any prizes.
If the ESL chiefs would be harsh on Enemy Territory, they could come to the conclusion that supporting ET = paying bots for the cheaters in this game.
Unlike ANY OTHER league the ESL promises money and also pays it out (cases have been mentioned above), and OF COURSE in such a big organisation SOME PAYMENTS may take more than a year, but consider the amount of money which has to be payed out and youre forgetting most ESL admins are not getting paid by ESL to do their admin stuff - this is also just a hobby.
I dont mean to offend you - you can have your opinion of the ESL - im just totally annoyed by you constantly flaming ESL and not apprecciating even one little thing.
you dont even try to apprecciate whats done here - its money for a free game, which isnt supported neither by its creators nor by any anti-cheat software.
stop the kid internet stuff, im trying to discuss with you here ...
as i pointed out, theres a huge amount of money to be payed out after each season and as you probably know Enemy Territory isnt one of the most supported games around ESL - therefore some admin may not consider it right away and it will take some time..
I cannot deny that waiting +1 year for your money is professional, youre right it really is kind of unprofessional, but you should know better and show some understanding. your constant flame here on crossfire is not helping anyone, better contact the ESL directly via support ticket. I'm sure they will cope with your ticket soon.
Well, i know there are people gettin payed for doing that, but what i dont know is who and how much. I guess you do not either, so argueing about something nobody has a clue about makes absolutley no sense.
Now youre just being unreasonable. You are telling the ESL promises money they dont even have? Assumptions wihtout any kind of proof...
There are a couple of factors which can make sending money take a long time ... problems in activity of the user, problems contacting the user, issues with the bank data of the user etc. etc. And as you can read above, ive already said that +1 year is quite embarassing indeed, should come within a few months imo. that would be reasonable.
Going to bed now, was nice talking to you!
