Hey guys, sorry for the late notice, but I wanted to let you know about a small 16-person Quake Cup that Cyber-Sports.net is hosting tonight, 01:30 BST, 18 July 2011.
Signups: DaHanG, czm, ZeRo4, destrukt, EGChance, cl0ck, boots, StywoO, mavLP, kiefcihef, and more.
rapha showing up to steal $50 is just a bitch move. He should play and if he wins it, decline to accept, so that the prize pool keeps getting larger so people have more incentive to play next time.
Just like he should have deliberately underperformed in that showmatch to create an elaborate narrative of comebacks and intense rivalry?
Your theories are bullshit, it's an open cup and if they don't want the best players they can make it 'amateurs only' or something. Stop trying to fix quake by telling the best players to not play/not try. It's a competitive game, not some bullshit where we rig everything to choreograph 'exciting' results.
hawhahaw!! Such a quotable movie!
"Lee Harvey!! YOU are a madman! When you and your brother tried to make it with that goat?!....I wanna party with YOU!"
Wow what a dick. Guess some of those who fall into the "redneck" category and are not very familiar with "fair play" as everybody should bow down since they be that thurr 'Mericun. He's already playing a European player on an American server, but God forbid he should play anywhere apart his home server since there's a small chance he may get have a slightly higher ping (while still having a favourable latency by about 70-120 (dending on circumstances).
Removing the neuteral-block since it's late at night, I would like to add, "Wow what a faggot, I hope czm meets him in the semis and wins an ez 2:0" since Paul has always been neuteral and respectful from my memory.
Egh boring, let me know me know when some tournaments for amatures start up. It's seriously getting boring watching the same matches over and over. I have no idea why a sponsor would keep dropping money into this. Hell if Walter/Outlaw was playing that would be worth it somewhat, still a stretch.
That is still more entertaining to watch. This is getting ridiculous, it's at the point where you basically keep giving money to the same 1-2 guys. For fucks sake promote the game by luring new comers and mediocre players, this isn't helping the scene I'm sorry to say. I'm not saying I don't appreciate what you, or these CSN guys do, but as entertaining as it may be to the ESR crowd, its not appealing to anybody else, and it's not going to grow the community.
Here is an update. The ufx guys all dropped out to play some TDM so they wont be playing for the rest of the night. We are working on getting the rest of the matches set up to be cast now. Thanks to the holysh1t guys for offering CSN their streaming when we were down also.
Amazing that people still don't know that Spec hud is in the settings menu. Every stream I watch someone says. DERP WHAT IS THE COMMAND FOR SPECHUD DERP?!
