News
It has been rather quiet around the upcoming LAN event in Krefeld. Today we would like to update you on a few things.
A lot of people have contacted us regarding the amount of teams interested to go the event, the amount of teams, that have already signed up and if there are already teams, that have made their payment. Unfortunately we’re not gonna be able to update you about that today, but we will update the LAN announcement news post soon.
We are very happy and thankful, that we are able to tell you, that Moe has once again made a donation worth 550 €. Obviously will increase the prize pool!
We highly appreciate your contribution and we would like to thank you for your contribution in the name of the whole community!
I would like to remind you, that the deadline for the early bird ticket is coming up. Early bird advantages will be available until February 28th! From March 1st on, the entrance fee ist raised by 15 € for both 3on3 and 6on6.
The last update we got for you today is about the seeding tournament. As always we will hold a seeding tournament, which is gonna start around the end of March. Only teams that have paid the full entrance fee are eligible to take part in the seeding tournament! If a team has not paid until the start of the seeding tournament, it will be seeded by the admins!
6on6 tournament
3on3 tournament
Please contact an admin as soon as possible if you have any issues to pay until Feb 28th.
The event
Pack your things, because the Venue is booked and the date is confirmed. There is enough space to have up to 16 teams in each tournament. Of course more teams will result in more prize money and vice versa for teams less than the amount of teams we did mention. In any case we guarantee each and every single participant at least 5 matches in the 6on6 tournament and at least 4 matches in the 3on3 tournament.
► Competition
Donations
You can donate money using PayPal or Bank and you can donate your CSGO, DOTA2 or other Steam items so that we can sell and add the money to our donations. Every cent of your donation will be added to the prize pool.

Payment between 14 days after the LAN: 0%* fee.
Payment between 14 days and 2 months: 50%* fee.
Payment after 2 months: 100%* fee.
*proportionate fee above final prizepool.
quid pro quo
Quid pro quo once again.
Oh and for the donators and supporters: your donation went straight to the free-drinks-for-staff-possibly-food-aswell-taking-into-mind-that-those-pizzas-didnt-pay-for-themselves-category. Bottom line: if there is money involved dont estimate your expenses on variable factors such as food and drinks.
Thanks good luck
For a long time I haven't been a part anymore of this community. But whenever there was a Lan announcement I had some interest in returning to play a few months.
Same for this Lan, I gathered some belgians willing to play and if there was some clarity about the teams attending I would have signed up already.
But for now I just have the impression that neither of the "decent" teams is attending ( thinking about the top 5 teams last Lan ). I heard some comments in the community that alot of people are unable to play that weekend. Also I am not going to sign up not knowing that there are decent teams going to play.
Obviously you can say people will get a total refund of their money if you don't get enough teams but what about the money people are paying for hotel / airplane etc? If we have to book all that with cancellation insurance prizes go up aswell..
I am not planning to spend 200+ euro for a weekend to play "Janneke & Mieke". It feels abit like paying an expensive champions league ticket to view a game in belgian competition if you know what I mean.
I have the greatest respect for you guys organizing this event but for now I have a feeling that the event most likely will have to be cancelled or at best delayed and rescheduled to a later date ( oktober - november ? :) ).
Time is ticking for people that don't want the raise of the entry fee but at the other hand time is also ticking for you guys organizing it. Every day that passes costs of hotel / airplane raises and people will be less eager to attend.
This post for me personally has only confirmed my fear that at this point in time there probably haven't been too many teams that signed up.
My advice: open up asap about how many teams that signed up and if there haven't been many then reschedule the event asap to a later date and try to get some clarity first about some of the better teams still playing this game if they are able/willing to come.
Too bad the good old times are over. I remember we had a pre-lan tournament even to be able to participate and that was easily filled with 16 teams ( next to 8 teams that were invited ). And it is not like at that time people were getting rich when they won the event. First team got 1500 euro.
If i knew there would be decent competition ( say like at cpc 2 ) then I would have no problem if there even wasn't any money at all. I would guess people that are still playing this game after all this time are just doing it for fun and if you are not willing to spend 250 euro's ( look at what you have to pay for a city trip ) to have some fun then you better don't spend it at all and stay home ( yes i'm looking at you mister fanatic )
On the other hand, if you promise prize money then I guess the money should be transfered or even given at the moment the event ends and not months later. ( don't see why this would not be possible if you calculated everything ) So dutchies, I have your back but can you please stop whining about it :D begint een beetje afgezaagd te worden.
Hopefully you can come up with a bit more clarifying news about the teams attending and best of luck further in organizing everything.

If that response the team I had planned have decided its not worth booking flights and hotels for a maybe. We are 8 days until end of early bird and still no teams posted. compared to last year its not organized well.
send me your adress somewhere (would be the best here at cf) and we send it directly to you.
It's a (small) community game now so this can only work when there is complete transparency. Just post updates of teams that are interested and their projected line-ups, even if they are incomplete. Without this info ppl will not be motivated to form teams, sign up, book travel/hotel etc.
And like Lio said, if the amount of interest is too low, then postpone it to a later date. Night and I will come anyway and form a fun team as usual.
problem is will they return hotel cancellation fee's, flight fees and time booked off work too...
I wanted to go to lan and would have brought a team. At start was interest too but you announced lan then just did nothing, not 6 days before early bird ends and still no teams announced even after been asking for 3 weeks.
anyhoo et now official dead gg
stay tuned :)
