Its been crazy times recently in ET, with a second quakecon and CPC over in europe. All this activity has stired a name not seen in ET for a while.
I can confirm that uQ-Gaming are once again going to support Enemy Territory.
Applications for the new ET team are already open and talks with a few teams have already started.
But this time uQ.Gamings support goes further than just its own teams. They 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 most likely support 5v5
It is likely to be a 16 team cup (although we will try and hold qualifiers to include more teams)
It is likely to start within the next 3 weeks
#uQ.Gaming are looking for people who can offer support or admin experience for the cup, so if you can them please pm Munchies in irc.
If you are interested in the spot as one of the uQ.Gaming teams, pm Venom.

EDIT: I can also confirm that if this cup is a success, uQ have promised to put forward at least the same prize fund for repeat events, with the idea of making a seasonal cup.
