Yeah, it seems CS:GO took a major chunk of the tf2 player numbers with the dreamhack hype, tbh even I started playing a lot of CS GO after dreamhack, but I never imagined it to have such an impact on tf2 numbers.

we're like #5 now, haven't seen us drop below 2 for a while. :(

Last weekend.

1 Million more than exactly 1 year before

And after dreamhack CS:GO seems to have gained quite a boost

Had a brief chat with tomahawk since we're both portuguese. Really interesting to know a bit more from things from the sponsor perspective.

Hope you guys all tune in and lets all make zowie realize what a great community we are. And we will surely get support in future events. Expect big numbers for the sunday stream. Apart from that, after my current mouse "retires" I'll definitely look into getting a zowie mouse.

Thank god I picked EU first for the bball cup, or else the date would clash terribly, also hope we can finish our event before this starts.

And this is really great news!

looks sleek, although I was really used to the old one and think it was good. Is the homepage redesign coming soon?

Is this why I can't edit any posts? Always get a blank page after submitting a post

If you're looking to test the map online, george set up a server for us running our map so feel free to join and maybe play some bball at:

http://cache.www.gametracker.com/server_info/176.56.237.35:10110/b_350_20_FFAD41_E98100_000000_591F11.png

14 signups for the cup atm.

We also appreciate if more people tried the map and gave some feedback as well because we wanted to release a final updated version before the cup if needed.

And we will probably be using etf2l configs but with the 2sec respawns. Just trying to figure out the best way to do it.

We also created our official twitch channel, you can follow us at: http://www.twitch.tv/comptflive That where we will be streaming from in the future

This post by Nymthae clears up some confusion about the shuttle bus and the price of stuff in coventry

respawns have to be set with a plugin? not sure how doable is that. Because not everyone will have servers with surcemod.

Yeah, sounds good. I will try to make the change, not sure what's the best way to do it.

Sorry but no, there will be a NA cup eventually if this goes well but I dont want to make the same mistake I made in the newbie cup.

Wasn't aware of this, I based the whole thing on etf2l latest bball cup. I will review it and talk to some people and maybe it can be changed. It's the first time I heard about this issue.

Post above. And by the way what are the exact rules of NA bball? care to share previous bball cups configs or link me something?

Apparently insomnia series will move to coventry next year

Looks way better

6 Sign-ups already! :D

Let us know what you think about the map as well. we really want feedback from it and also to update it accordingly to the feedback before the cup

We are also looking for casters for this event. Probably from times around 6-8 pm GMT. If you want to cast it feel free to talk to me on steam.

Unfortunatly I can't play :( as I will only be admining the cup or else I would make a team with you

@6

Thanks for the feedback, I linked the post to X_DIAS but apparently he has to wait for his tf.tv account to be activated by an admin so he can't post right now. He will post when he can

yes. Not sure when tho. Nothing's planned atm

After a few weeks of planning, we just announced our first bball cup, with an amazing custom map specially created for it.

Thanks to my friends ducky and X_DIAS for helping through the whole thing, without them this wouldn't be possible
