Hi everyone!
On May 27th, 2021, Copenhagen Games 2022 was announced. An Esport and Gaming festival event organized in Copenhagen, Denmark. Soon after, it was announced that Team Fortress 2 would be among the games featured at this event. After confirming with our ETF2L team that they would be in attendance, I had the idea to try and get our North American team over as well. There has not been an international TF2 LAN in nearly 2 years (the last being Insomnia65 on 8/23/2020) and having regional representation is important in open tournaments like this. I have a deep passion for this game, seeing improvements, and watching lifelong memories unfold.
For those unfamiliar with our team's roles, allow me to introduce the current NA Witness Gaming Roster:
Pocket Scout: branslam
Flank Scout: yight
Pocket Soldier: ash
Roamer: laz
Demoman: artist
Medic: LOLGUY
As stands, this Witness Gaming roster (winners of RGL Traditional Season 6 Sixes) will be planning to be in attendance, representing North American Team Fortress 2. We’re bringing an incredible mix of talent, with three of our players (yight, ash, laz) already being internationally LAN proven and the other three (branslam, artist, LOLGUY) looking for their first taste of victory both on LAN and overseas.
Hopefully, with the help of gracious contributions, we can recoup some of the losses in paying for this trip and play our very best for North America.
Expenses and Fundraising
To summarize, a full 6 person trip to Denmark isn't exactly the cheapest venture when compared to traveling domestically. Here are the major areas where donations and contributions will be applied and most appreciated!
- Flights
- Room and Board
- PC Rentals
In addition, the team will travel to Copenhagen three days in advance and run Boot Camp from a LAN center in Copenhagen. All additional costs such as transport around the city, food, etc will be covered by the players. Please note that if we exceed our donation goal, any extra funds raised will be used to reimburse the player's own costs, or saved for future Team Fortress 2 events. We will be offering lots of perks and milestones to help incentivize donations! You can view the full list of perks on our full fundraiser page here! This fundraiser will only be lasting 60 day and is set to end on January 3rd, 2022!
30% of revenue generated from ANY Witness Gaming merch sales will contribute towards our goal. You can select from a wonderful selection of merch from t-shirts, hoodies, sweatpants, and even socks over on RGL's merch at https://shop.rgl.gg/!
COVID-19 and Refunds
COVID-19 has made organizing a full TF2 LAN extremely difficult. With borders risking shutdown and international travel becoming difficult. That being said, should the event be canceled at ANY point, we will honor any request donors make for a refund. We deeply appreciate your support, but understand that sometimes the unthinkable can occur.
You can learn more about Indiegogos' refund policy here!
Our concerns with COVID-19, and how it will affect our travel plans will require consistent and constant monitoring of what's happening in the world around us. Above all else, I would like to ensure that player and personal safety is upheld first and foremost. I will personally be keeping an eye on the situation and be posting more as information comes along, should any developments be made that hamper our plans to attend in the "Updates" tab of this specific campaign, along with steps you can take as a donor to seek a refund should you so choose.
Thank you guys for reading, this is an exciting opportunity for us! You can view the full fundraiser here:

These guys are going to win, get that merch
I'm speechless and beyond thankful. $1000 raised in less than 24 hours is no easy task and we couldn't have even dreamed of raising this much so quickly with the overwhelming support of our donors or people who have spread the word either on Twitter or with friends.
That being said, with $1000 comes another update!
More (Signed) Jerseys
Our signed jersey perk was the first perk to sell out and many have asked for a rerun so I'm happy to say that we're increasing the TOTAL amount of unsigned jerseys to 20 and running a 2nd signed jersey sale for 15 more! This will be the LAST OPPORTUNITY to claim these jersey, so get em' while they're hot!
wG Young Sanity
Last night we added a $1500 milestone that would allow Young Sanity will replace his idol, ash for a night of scrims on Soldier. ash will stream his pov and give the young man feedback through comms. You can drop ash a follow here for when that happens and there will also be a $1500 update once we reach that point! We're nearly $400 off!
wG vs wG Showmatch
Our milestone for reaching $1000 was crushed, so we will be organizing a wG vs wG showmatch between the NA and EU rosters on a 3 map, server alternating (NA,EU,NA) friendly showmatch between the two teams. No date or time has been set yet, so keep your eyes open on Twitter @WitnessGamingTF and check for an email update from us as more details get ironed out!
FAQ Update
A minor change in perk redemption has made some details slightly confusing regarding how the Raffle and Movie Credit perks are being tied together. I have placed this question into our FAQ to better clarify the change.
"Does claiming a perk also claim any perks below it? For example, does an Item Signing Bundle also come with an Unusual Raffle entry?"
Sadly, the only bundle that includes other bundles (like the Movie credit included with the Raffle) is exclusive to that bundle. I made this decision after announcing the fundraiser so people could contribute, get a reward and not have a complete loss when buying a Raffle ticket!
Bundles like Mentoring, Jersey Sales, and Item Signings are standalone and do not include a Raffle Ticket or Movie Credit at this time.
To Conclude,
Once again, I cannot thank you all enough for the support and confidence over these past 24 hours. If you have any questions, concerns, or need help with perk fulfilment please don't hesitate to contact me through my personal email @ faulkner.ian@gmail.com, on Discord @ Witness#3415, or send us a DM on Twitter @WitnessGamingTF

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!
After 6 days of fundraising, we're nearly halfway to our goal is $4000. The support has been incredibly overwhleming and the warmth felt from the community contributions and discussion is so awesome!
Team Game Night
Just as a reminder, our $2000 milestone goal is a streamed Team Game night where the team will sit down with a group and play various PUGs and party games for a few hours! Make sure you're following all of our players on Twitch so you don't miss a thing!
Reminder About Perk Claims
The support and interest in perks has been the driving force behind our campaign, which is fantastic! However, I'd like to encourage ANY donors that claim a perk to please check their email after the purchase of a perk. I always try and make sure to personally send every donation an email thanking you for your contribution and I usually ask questions regrading how we can best service you after the purchase of a perk!
If you have already purchased a perk, are thinking about purchasing a perk and had questions, or just had any questions in general about the fundraiser, my points of contact are always open!

Update #3! NA vs EU Showmatch and other details!
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween! I was hoping to continue my trend of weekly updates every Monday leading up to the end of our fundraiser! As noted in the title, this update will include information regarding our NA vs EU showmatch, details about Copenhagen Games, and how we plan to roll out things like Game Night!
Let's get to it!
NA vs EU Showmatch
Thanks to all of our supporters, we managed to raise our fundraiser total to nearly $2500 last week! This means that our wG NA vs EU showmatch is officially on! Here are some bullet points that you NEED to know:
- The match will be played on November 7th (Sunday) at 3p.m EST (NA), 19:00 (GMT)/21:00(CET)
- Showmatch production will be provided by RGL, with Dolphin on Camera and a rare international casting duo showcase provided by Jarrett and eepily. Make sure and follow RGL on Twitch so you can be notified when we go live!
The event will also be uploaded into a VOD form on RGL's Youtube!
- The showmatch will be done on 3 maps with the ETF2L ruleset and whitelist, a nod towards the expected ruleset to be used in Copenhagen.
- The map picks and server will alternate between NA and EU, starting with NA.
The 3rd map will be similar to a PUG/Mix on a NA server, with the two rosters being broken up and repicked by two captains.
We're beyond thankful for everyones support and really excited to make this happen! Make sure you're following Witness Gaming and RGL on Twitter to stay in the loop!
Game Night!
We raised $2436 as of this update, meaning our Game Night stream will be rolled out soon! Essentially, this will be a very casual stream feature team members, friends of the team, and potentially more coming out to play various games and serve as a AMA/Meet and greet for the team! Feel free to stop by, chat, and have a fun night with us as we play games like Golf with Your Friends, Pummel Party, Scribble.io, and more!
Make sure you're following our players Twitch accounts so you don't miss a beat! You can find a hub with all the links at the bottom of our Indiegogo page!
LAN Updates
Per this update, it was mentioned by CG22 organizers that there would not be monitor rentals available this year at the event. Thankfully, we were in their thoughts and we're currently working towards securing us monitors at LAN.
Outro
I'd like to personally thank everyone again for all the help and support going into this project. The positivity and contributions have been overwhelming!
If you have not yet received a perk, had questions or issues with perk redemption, or just had questions in general, feel free to reach out and contact me@ faulkner.ian@gmail.com, Discord@ Witness#3415, or our Twitter DMs @WitnessGamingTF

$3000 Update!
Hi everyone! I hope you've all been having a wonderful November so far!
We recently passed $3000! It's still a huge shock to me that we managed to make it this far for our fundraiser and we couldn't have done it without your help. There's not a whole bunch to report back on in regards to our fundraiser, COVID status in Denmark, or other things of note regarding our team with LAN so this update will be short and sweet!
Milestone Updates
We recently have met all of our Milestones! While there currently isn't anything listed for 3000/3500/4000, we're brainstorming ideas everyday! If you had an idea and wanted to share it, feel free to email me at faulkner.ian@gmail.com, or DM on Discord @Witness#3415!
Previous Milestones, like the in-house MGE tournament and Game Night are currently being planned and we expect to have those rolling out soon!
Perk Redemption
I would like to close this update by reminding anyone who has not received their non merch perk (jerseys) to please reach out to me. I have a few outstanding names in our database of people who have purchased a perk, but have not gotten into contact with me in order to work out some of the logistical steps needed to fulfill!
This is a really exciting moment for all of us on wG, our fundraiser ends in 28 days so lets really try our best to get in their and make it happen!

Update #7
Hello everyone! I hope you've all had a great holiday so far! The contents of this update contain nothing too crazy in terms of any changes to the campaign, but the information is pretty important towards our fundraiser!
Perks and Playoffs
For our NA team, RGL Invite Playoffs is getting underway with us in the #1 seed. In order to play our best and focus and avoid overbearing with the holiday season, the time it takes to resolve some perks might take longer. We apologize for the inconvenience!
COVID-19 Update
For those unaware, the omicron variant of COVID has been making its rounds all over the world. Some countries have already turned to travel bans while organizations like the WHO and the National Institutes of Health work to learn more about the variant.
While the Games are scheduled for April 2022, we will keep our eyes on news developments and make sure to keep the community in the loop!
Thank you all again for your wonderful support!
As always, if you have any questions regarding our fundraiser please don't hesitate to get in contact with me through my personal email (faulkner.ian@gmail.com), or Discord (Witness#3415)
Happy Holidays!

Hi! AFAIK FROYO, and other NA teams have not made their plans public on whether or not they plan to attend. I'm sure if any other NA group was planning to join us, but I'm certain if something were planned we'd be seeing a thread here on TFTV/Twitter, so keep your eyes peeled!
Similarly, I would anticipate rosters being announced or planned on both regions will start popping up in some official capacity as we near closer to the event in April! You can check out the Copenhagen Games 22 TF2 Discord here to always be up to date!

We Did It!
Hello everyone! I hope you've all been having a wonderful holiday season so far! A few things to note in this update but most importantly we have reached out goal of raising $4000! I'm over the moon about this and the support coming in from everyone has been very strong and motivating for myself and the team!
Outstanding/Missing Perks
I'd like to start off by saying that with the closure of our campaign on Indiegogo, our perk list also closes. Thanks to everyone who supported us with these donations and we hope you enjoyed our available list of perks!
That being said, if you have purchased a perk and have NOT received it or an email confirming your status please send me an email @ faulkner.ian@gmail.com OR a DM on Discord #Witness3415 so we can sort out any outstanding perks. Please make sure to include your Contribution ID# in your message so I can help as smoothly as possible.
Please also feel free to provide us any feedback you might have for our perks, how communication was handled, and if you were satisfied with your order as well!
Omicron Status
As reports of Omicron cases and waves report in, we're doing our best to keep a close eye on the situation and hopefully we can make the safe, smart choices as needed when the time comes to travel overseas. There's nothing we can really report on our status travelling at the moment, but we expect more news to become clearer in late February/early March.
Should the LAN be cancelled due to COVID in April of next year, any outstanding and unclaimed perks will be refunded upon request, no questions asked. As previously mentioned, we're keeping our eyes open and fingers crossed!
Conclusion
I'd again like to deeply thank everyone who has made this project possible for the team and myself. This was my first time ever really undertaking a project like this and I felt like I was learning tons along the way! We love you all for helping out and the support just means more than the world to us!
Donations will still be open through Paypal and Venmo!
If you would still like to contribute towards our goal with a goodwill donation, you can! You can send payments to faulkner.ian@gmail.com on PayPal or Ian-Faulkner-9 in Venmo!

I'm over the moon about this and the support coming in from everyone has been very strong and motivating for myself and the team!
[b][i]Outstanding/Missing Perks[/i][/b]
I'd like to start off by saying that with the closure of our campaign on Indiegogo, our perk list also closes. Thanks to everyone who supported us with these donations and we hope you enjoyed our available list of perks!
That being said,[b] [u]if you have purchased a perk and have NOT received it or an email confirming your status please send me an email @ faulkner.ian@gmail.com OR a DM on Discord #Witness3415[/u][/b] so we can sort out any outstanding perks. Please make sure to include your Contribution ID# in your message so I can help as smoothly as possible.
Please also feel free to provide us any feedback you might have for our perks, how communication was handled, and if you were satisfied with your order as well!
[b][i]Omicron Status[/i][/b]
As reports of Omicron cases and waves report in, we're doing our best to keep a close eye on the situation and hopefully we can make the safe, smart choices as needed when the time comes to travel overseas. There's nothing we can really report on our status travelling at the moment, but we expect more news to become clearer in late February/early March.
[b][u]Should the LAN be cancelled due to COVID in April of next year, any outstanding and unclaimed perks will be refunded upon request, no questions asked.[/u][/b] As previously mentioned, we're keeping our eyes open and fingers crossed!
[b][i]Conclusion[/i] [/b]
I'd again like to deeply thank everyone who has made this project possible for the team and myself. This was my first time ever really undertaking a project like this and I felt like I was learning tons along the way! We love you all for helping out and the support just means more than the world to us!
[i]Donations will still be open through Paypal and Venmo! [/i]
If you would still like to contribute towards our goal with a goodwill donation, you can! You can send payments to faulkner.ian@gmail.com on PayPal or Ian-Faulkner-9 in Venmo!

witness wG Young Sanity
Last night we added a $1500 milestone that would allow Young Sanity will replace his idol, ash for a night of scrims on Soldier. ash will stream his pov and give the young man feedback through comms. You can drop ash a follow here for when that happens and there will also be a $1500 update once we reach that point! We're nearly $400 off!
i would like to say that this instantly pisses me off, and i was gonna support the team going to the thing when the fundraiser was active but i did not realize this would be an actual goal. i do not hate the team, i just hate young sanity. thats all i have to say

Some Unfortunate News
Copenhagen Games 2022 has been cancelled for 2022, unfortunately snuffing out our plans to send both our NA and EU rosters to compete. You can read more about the details here
What Does This Mean for Me?
If you have contributed to our "NA wG to CPH22" fundraiser and have not received your perks, please DM us! Those who have graciously donated but have not received any perks yet (jerseys, demo reviews, item signings, etc) will be entitled to a full, 100% refund upon request! To receive a refund, please contact me personally through Twitter DMs (@witnes_, @WitnessGamingTF), Discord @ Witness#3415, or email @ faulkner.ian@gmail.com with your Indiegogo information and confirmation ID for verification and request of either a refund, or wish to receive your outstanding perk.
We STILL plan on running our raffle, so please standby and keep an eye open on our Twitter and this thread for whenever we call names!
Those who have donated and received desired perks will not be eligible for reimbursement, the funds raised will be saved and instead use to bolster efforts for both our NA and EU teams travel costs for future events.
We're deeply saddened to learn about the sudden cancellation of CPH22, especially after the promising news of rentals becoming available for a large number of teams.

Big bummer, but as long as you continue to aim for an international LAN attendance I'll stay excited
