will the cod4 and csgo competition clash?

Posted by: Zardoz Aug 26 2012, 12:03 AM

It's likely - but we haven't drawn our schedule yet.

This isn't easy to avoid. We're sorry - it sucks but there might not be anything we can do about this.

Thanks for volunteering to organise it for us ;-)

I'll see if we can get some prizes for it.

no more grid?

Posted by: class Aug 27 2012, 08:29 PM

A lot of the CoD4 players that will attend will most likely want to compete in CS:GO as well, just giving a heads up.

Well, seeing that you have a cs:go tourny as well as CSS Gungame makes chucklez happy

the big question, will the paper scissors rock tournament be making a reappearance?

Posted by: Votucu Sep 7 2012, 03:26 PM

We're still working out the logistics on this one. But, as we said on Facebook, the challenge has certainly been considered!


Grid is one of the more casual funcomps. Would you consider putting up your hand to run it?


Who knows!
