There are very few players signed up for this right now. Sure is going to be easy money for some centers/teams.

What is the start time/end time Saturday?

Sunday?

Thanks

Mark, if I'm reading this right, and no other teams join up, I'm guaranteed $350? (currently 7 teams, +1 = 8 = worst I could do.)

This true?

Here is the tentative schedule for Saturday:

9 AM PST ? 1 AM PST (East Pools)
11 AM PST ? 3 PM PST (East Pools)
1 PM PST ? 5 PM PST (Central Pools)
3 PM PST ? 7 PM PST (West Pools)

The end times of the pool may vary. After your team is put into a pool, the schedule of your matches will be sent to centers.

Sunday?s event will start on 10 AM PST.

Trying to pull a team together. What's better: don't register, and register late if we make it, or register and then bow out if we don't make it?

Map is?

Register as many players as you can, then approve the team if you can actually play.

I don't know anyone who plays COD2. =/

The game has certainly lost some interest.

We registered a week ago and we´re ready to go today, waiting for status of this.

I have a question as the sign up form states: centers must be using intel processor on their PC´s, but it doesn´t say we NEED TO be on the intel center program (which we just sign up in case of).

It´s the tourney still up for today? I dont see the event on the admin page anymore. :confused: :confused: :confused:

CoD2 is by far the most popular game at my center. But I am strictly AMD here.

[QUOTE=$layer-1]http://www.ggl.com/news.php?NewsId=4207[/QUOTE]I would love to see iGames work to get licensing for Quake 4 in our centers. Anything to help knock CS off their pedestal.
