uQ.Gaming in association with Savageleagues have decided to run there seasons cups. We have put forward £300 (440Euros) as a prize fund for a cup within ET. Already some other sponsors have put forward interest in supporting an online event, and so we can expect more than just the cash by the time the cup starts.
Since we only got the support confirmed a few days ago, its still early in the planning stages, but so far i can confirm the following:
The prize pot is a minimum of £300 (440Euro)
The cup will support 6v6
The size of the cup will depend on the amount of sign ups we get.
It will start within the next month.
#uQ.Gaming are looking for people who can offer support or admin experience for the cup, so if you can then please pm uQ-Venom in irc.
I can also confirm that if this cup is a success, uQ will forward at least the same prize fund for repeat events, with the idea of making a seasonal cup.
Maps
The map list is looking like:
fueldump_te (we are looking at one of the new fueldump versions)
radar
supplydepot2
sw_goldrush
Frostbite
Brandorf_b4
This list is by no means set in stone yet.
The games will also be broadcast on ETTV and via shoutcast.
Depending on the amount of teams we get will depend on the timescale in which this cup will run.
The config is likely to be the same as the one currently used by Clanbase with ET 2.60b and ET-Pro 3.2.6..
Signups will work like this:
Signups are effectively open now, for three weeks (although we may well keep them open longer)
This IS NOT a 1st come 1st served basis.
We will look at how many teams want to participate in the cup and work out a way to let as many teams as possible qualify. We expect there to be a lot of teams wanting to play, and so some teams may end up dissapointed.
If your team is interested in taking part then please follow these instructions:[/b]
1) Your team must first register HERE
2) Once this is done then you may register for the cup HERE
Roster info is not needed at this stage, all we need to know is that your team is interested in playing. Once we know how many teams we have we will start to organise the groups and announce the teams.
We will try and give as many teams as possible the chance to compete, but it is likely some teams will be seeded.
Teams will have at least three weeks from now to signup, and maybe longer depending on the interest we recieve.
I apologise for all those that have already mailed in but we feel this will be easier to manage.
