For Team Dignitas' last Alienware Cup of 2012, we wanted to do something special and what better than to support a game which helped us build up our organisation? On Sunday December 23rd we are hosting a Return To Castle Wolfenstein one-day-cup, with a £200 winner-takes-all cash prize. We start with 16 teams, but if we receive 32 or more signups then we will increase this.
The cup is LIVE:

Update: All matches will now be cast by Warwitch with a possible appearance by Tosspot!

Intact, RaZiel, Darkie, Rene, evil_Purc, Ub3da, R0nin, Zero and lets not forget DEADMEAT!!
Most of those names are from the early rewind around 2002?
Also, Sui are you/your guys from dignitas going to post this on other sites aswell? Like ESReality for example, might attract some more mix/fun teams. As you guys have a big name that might attract some other players outside CF aswell? Would love to see it / if u give me permission ill post it on some :P
On a side note hope Odee is / has recovered - done a lot for this community.
Would have been nice to get Warwitch involved in the streams too.
Im sure he and Dignitas and the teams involved will put on a great show though :-)
gj with no assault
like a ninja.
edit: avi for a good team as cave won't have 6
At the very least jump on IRC - we will play a couple of games this week as one.soldier welcome to join in mate :)
Really appreciate that you do this for the rtcw community!
....
Hopefully we (badazz) can put up some nice games! :)
e.g merlinator ..
rtcw rtcw rtcw bla ..
pack 1.4 .. watafak?
The 1.4 pack is just a straight download for RtCW all patched up etc. so easy for people to get it, if they need it.
so any other experienced rtcw ads there?
and how is rtcw coming along? any worth diggin it out again after having NO motivation for fps since a year?!
Would really like to see Warwitch and Tosspot do some of the show(s) together, since Warwitch has put in so much effort to get the hype going.
Players that need one can pm me here or on irc
good luck tho and nice to see dignitas doing something for the rtcw community!
