E-Series is ready!

In just under a week’s time, six teams will make their way to Weesp in The Netherlands to take part in the first ever KTV E-Series for Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. For those of you who are still not sure what this event is or what it’s about then allow me to recap the basics for you; E-Series is a LAN event run every few (or so) months by the Dutch online broadcasting company Kaos TV. Their most successful LAN events have been 1 day Call of Duty 4 events and this series continues. The guys at Kaos TV happily agreed to trial run an Enemy Territory tournament on the 15th of May, and should everything go to pLAN and the community show their hunger for me, then this will become a regular occurrence!

Aside from the obvious involvement from Kaos TV and myself, the most notable efforts you be passed over to Jere and, of course, Felix. Jere has been working really hard to make teams sign up and pay, and has also corresponded with captains from each paid team in order to determine the map list for the event. Felix has played an extremely crucial part in the event actually going ahead after he, very kindly, paid for 2 teams to the event out of his own pocket! With those thank-yous said and done, I would now like to present to you the final information regarding the event!

Match times are strict and the admin’s decision is final. Teams are not expected to be late for starting, the only time where a delay should have an impact on the schedule is due to a technical error and through no fault of a team or player.

The admin’s decision is final on all accounts, please respect this.
