    I'm going and I'm volunteering to help run an SC 2v2 competition. (Eric you up to help?)
    I'll also run a CA knockout if there is interest, quite possibly something a little different this time...

    This time we wont have a problem with getting kicked out early but I still envision people getting hideously twisted and going asleep etc... mmm hotdogs ala FTI would be good too!

    Hey, I know, we can gather results and plug them into the ladders too to give them a kick start. People can just report wins and losses to me and I'll create profiles for them and plug them in. That way they are setup and ready to go with some data behind them.

    Wotchall think?

    DeV.

    I will be getting involved in the Q3 side of things.

    Would anyone like to see a nice BIG game of CTF happen.

    10 v 10 maybe?

    There will of course be Q3 war and duel tourneys.

    If you intend coming please register on the web site. (even if you've already told me on IRC that you're coming..)

    And even if you aren't bringing a comp but intend coming. This way I can gauge how much cash I have for prizes.

    It only takes twenty seconds......
