PGA Qualifiers, The Bracket & Fixtures

image: 1pga_27
The time is nigh, with just 1 month until Poland is invaded by gamers coming to win big bucks, we must find our two European based ET Teams to compete for 2,500 euros at the Poznan Gaming Arena!

After having 11 sign ups, we went around asking for opinions from all corners of ET for seedings, as many teams and rosters are in a state of transition at the moment, and we have seeded the teams and put them into a bracket. All matches will be played using the Crossfire 5on5 Config.

Teams can chose their own maps (from Radar, sw_Goldrush, Frostbite, SupplyDepot2 & Adlernest), with the decider (if needed) being selected by elimination. However, teams cannot chose the same map two matches in a row. A coin toss should be used to select which team choses whether to attack or defend first in the deciding map. Teams are invited to arrange all the match servers long in advance of their matches.

Matches will begin at 19:00 CET on Wednesday 25th of October and Thursday 26th, scheduling will be extremely loose, with teams requested to start their next game as soon as their opponents are ready. Teams must play until at least 22:00 CET on Wednesday to guarantee a successful completion of the cup within two days. We request teams assistance in managing their free time during the bracket, whilst waiting for their next game. All team leaders are requested to check their email inboxes for tournament channel details

The Double Elimination Bracket can be viewed HERE, teams have been seeded from 1 to 11, and there are some BYE's for the higher seeded teams. Read more for the seeding list:

i can only see amenti zp and idle in the grid??
"viewed HERE (to be updated momentarily)" I'm updating as we speak
Parent
k, anoher question, whats BYE?
Parent
BYE means there isnt a team in that slot so you dont have to play until you've an opponent from the other game in your bracket. Its a 16 team bracket to make double elim work, with 5 BYE's. You get a BYE to the next round, like in many Football competitions, big teams get a BYE to the 2nd round for example.
Parent
ok thats whynoll8 and cdap-pi got an bye...nice ;)
Parent
A free pass to the next round.
Parent
n1ce flag you have
Parent
GL to all, rosters pls when fixed!

Seems for me idle.ee, cdap.pi, zeroPoint! and aMenti in winner-bracket semi-finals...where is diversus btw?
diversus is polish?
Parent
ahh..ok...srry
Parent
arent't polish teams allowed?
Parent
well, since the lan is held in Poland, it would be kinda stupid to send a Polish team over right?
that would mean that teams that have to come from further don't get a chance?
Parent
hmm, im checking this site very often now, and we had to play idle in the 2nd round, but now the whole roster changed and we dont have to play them before semis( if they get that far )? weird????
Bracket is now live, All previous comments look at the Brackets for your answers.
round 1, 2 and 3 will be played on wednesday right?
btw fix "Teams must play until at least 22:00 CET on Tuesday to garentuee a successful completion of the cup within two days."
only 2 team get to go to the lan ???
and against who are they gonna play there ? :s
Parent
4 polish clans
Parent
wow lots of competition on the seedings
where are tosspot and friends?!?!
3rd in the list
Parent
too high for a clan which didnt play any official !
Parent
have to agree on that :)
Parent
I heard they are competing in some CoD-thing, with some Irish guy in the lineup...
Parent
are al the teams sure that they can go to the lan? xD

I think there will be some n1 dropouts =)
unexpected...
Parent
gl all participants :)
wolltet ihr gar nich mitspielen :<
Parent
I doubt mAus can go to Poland for the LAN if he wasn't even allowed to go to Rotterdam :o.

So in case I'm not mistaken, which we will assume, the 2 proceeding clans will be Idle and cdap.pi or zP (Gifty doesn't play =<) .


Btw, why didn't Helix sign up?
mAus zou wel mogen gaan als hij met ons mee ging ... Vorige keer ging hij alleen met een paar duitsers
Parent
Ok, Finest wins.
Parent
helix support 6on6 (they wont take part in any 5on5 events)
Parent
tonight I will, but not at the lan
Parent
You may come to Holland, you go on vacation to Brasil but you can't go to Poland?
Parent

Awesome seedings btw, if you look at the results so far. Only result that hasn't gone with the seedings has been zP vs aMenti...
where is david ?? :((
Parent
His parents had a car crash, thats why were not praccing almost 2 weeks now.
Hopefully, hell be back tommorow.
Parent
so who wont be going to lan if u qualify ?
Parent
take a guess :P
Parent
lan is in a month, so i really do not know and neither do you ;)
Parent
If you see my comment above before matches started I wrote "who sighned us up".
I was suprised cuz like I said david wasent here and we didnt prac almost 2 weeks so we werent even going 2 play this, we had 5 online so we took it as a "arranged" prac.
Without playing along time we know we wont qualify, I thought that in the first game even murso would own us but I got suprised.

I also have a feeling that cdap.pi will qualify.
Parent
That really sucks, best wishes to david :(
Parent
na, dont really believe u if ur saying that u didnt want to play this thing and go to lan . but GL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Parent
well if you want 2 know more you could ask on irc instead of "thinking" and talking about something you dont know, you dont need 2 beleive its just a fact =].
Parent
No need to sound bitter tbh ;<
Parent
that's crozz , evan .
Parent
Meant sarcastic but nvm :( no need to "argue" in public though.
Parent
Way to jinx it, day 2 went pear shaped (:
Parent
When will idle play zeropoint?
Tonight i assume.
Parent
Too bad we have to pracc :o
Parent
Too bad i dont have ET installed! I might try and steal flat mates laptop again and listen to the shoutcast :P
Parent
