With a Counter-Strike 1.6 tournament, a Call of Duty 4 tournament, we thought that the Quake players should get a little love too! Several US players have already expressed interest in attending so sign up now and let's have a good turnout to show sponsors that the Quake community can rally together and DM is not dead!
GTV for all matches will be shown at benqtv.takingbackesports.com. If you can't attend the event, please show your support by joining us in either GTV or IRC.
