what the fuck :(

Sad to see Knoxxx step down, but Epsilon will still do just fine, and I'm sure they'll take down Animate regardless.

On top of what future said, imagine if competitive Overwatch truly becomes a great thing and Froyo happen to be one of the best teams. They would be locked in this shitty two year contract that gives them little to nothing while other organizations would have tried to make offers with salaries and other incentives.

The offer is extremely low risk and high reward for Tempo Storm, yet high risk and low reward for Froyo.

I'm so incredibly tired and sore. I'll keep it brief, though.

Thank you to everyone who helped me prepare for this event.
Thank you to everyone on production who were stressing out horribly with various problems not in our control, but managed to make it as awesome as we could.
Thank you to the casters.
Thank you to Geel, marketplace.tf, Zowie, and Rexflo for sponsoring the tournament and supporting the community. Also, thanks to Geel for making it out to the event and hanging with us!

But most importantly, thank you so much to everyone who showed up to make this event what it is. All of this preparation, time spent, and effort is absolutely meaningless without your support. It is fulfilling to see all of you have such a good time with each other under the same roof. Every single one of you are awesome.

See you next year.

Registration is closed.

18 teams.

registration closes soon. I know a lot of you are still back at your hotels. get here ASAP. I'm not waiting much longer.

Streamed matches will be on Saloon! GATHER YOUR EARBUDS AND SKINS.

Yes. Dashner, KevinIsPwn, drshdwpuppet, dMenace, and others will be helping with production and other things.

Also, I finally updated all the posts that I missed over the past few days. This might be the last time I update the original post with everyone's info and such, so please make sure to pay attention to new posts at this point.

There's still quite a few people looking for a team / looking to make a team, so start making friends. :3

If anyone tried to buy their ticket in the past few hours and got a "registration is closed" message, that was an error on our part. Registration is back up. Sorry for the confusion.

I haven't even looked at this thread in like 3 days because I've been so busy with everything, but please, before you go out of your way to ask me a question, LOOK AT THE FAQ. 95% of the stuff I'm asked is in the FAQ.

Tickets haven't sold out yet, so please stop asking me. I'll make a post if/when they do.

Extremely excited to announce that www.marketplace.tf, owned by Geel, will be sponsoring the event by donating $1,000 to the TF2 tournament!

Thanks so much for supporting the event and the community! Make sure to say hi to Geel and thank him if you run into him at the event.

Blame Kevin, I just copied and pasted a paragraph he typed to me. :D

Also, yeah, this. I'm gonna be busier this year, so any help with running the tournament will be greatly appreciated.

HELP WANTED

We're looking for some volunteers to help set up and run production. Last year, we had several people with minimal / no audio or video experience that were essential to the production staff not going insane, and we'd like a repeat of that this year.

The stream is only going to be on the day of the tournament. If you're not playing (or if you want to help if you get eliminated early on), send a PM on TFTV to KevinIsPwn or me with any production background (if any) you have, and we'll find a place for you.
