CB iTDM: CyC & stheno to final2007-06-26 10:06 | daelmun
The semifinals of the ClanBase insta TDM Cup Spring 2007 have been played, and it looks like we will see a repeat of the final from last year with both stheno e'Sports and Cyclones winning their matches without losing a map. Last year stheno won, but maybe CyC will get their revenge? We will find out soon.

Semifinals
(q2dm3/q2dm7/q2dm2) stheno [6:0] +plus
(q2dm7/q2dm8/q2dm1) CyC [6:0] RmR^

Grand Final
stheno e'Sports vs Cyclones

As for the TDM-cup I haven't seen any activity on the site, so I reckon it's more or less dead.

Claymore has fixed the problems with DemoSquad so you should now be able to upload and download demos as you should. Of course big thanks to Manu for additional storage space on his server!

If there still are any problems, please post in Claymore's newspost on DemoSquad or send him a personal message.

DemoSquad: Getting fixed soon2007-06-17 04:46 | daelmun
Manu to the rescue
Everyone is aware of the problems with the demo-hosting on DemoSquad, and it has been causing some frustration among the users that they can't upload demos to demosquad and as a result a lot of demos have had to be uploaded on other sites.

But thankfully something is being done to fix the problem as Manu has gratefully offered Claymore (q2scene owner) some storage space for demos, and Claymore will be working on fixing the demo-section in the days to come. So big thanks to both of them for bringing DemoSquad back to life!

Latest update :: unfortunately Claymore wont be able to wrok on it untill next weekend, so we will have to stay patient for a little longer.

Screenshots and Q2Scene
Even though the q2scene is free of charge for the users, Claymore do pay for the hosting, so there is no need to upload huge screenshots that take up a lot of unneeded space on the server.

To prevent screenshots that are over 1mb in size or so, be sure to use a image-editing tool (irfanview works wonders) and just edit the screenshot so it's just the scoreboard that is showing, don't need to upload the entire screen. This can make a 1mb screenshot only take up 50kb or so. The screenshots of EDL alone are taking up 180mb of storage space on the server.

Just keep that in mind when uploading screenshots, try to keep them small.

NDML: Poland wins!2007-06-14 13:43 | daelmun
So after 5 maps it was decided: Poland won the 7th season of Nations Deathmatch League, after taking down Finland 3 maps to 2, after a convincing victory on the deciding map (q2dm3).

Even though a lot of effort was put into getting the GTV up and working, the game had to be played without GTV and could only be followed live via scorebot (thanks to cahir). It proved to be another classic judging by the mapscores and the way they stole one homemap away from eachothers. Full matchreport coming up as soon as Gravgon or Gerdt gets it written.

Grand Final

(q2dm2/q2dm7/q2dm3) Poland [3:2] Finland (q2dm1/q2dm6)

Demos :: all maps - various povs

Maps :: q2dm1/q2dm7 :: q2dm2/q2dm6
Deciding map :: q2dm3

Finland :: damiah, provi, thaigo, dimmo (raskal q2dm1)
Poland :: assasin, ibogine, morph-x, cleaner (goat q2dm7)

Final standings

1st :: Poland
2nd :: Finland
3rd :: Sweden :: Croatia

NDML: Sweden vs Poland live2007-06-14 13:26 | daelmun
The last semfinal has been played. Poland was coming into the deciding maps with a 2-1 lead, after the server crashed in the dyigng seconds of the 4th map, which caused the map to be replayed and rescheduled.

(q2dm2/q2dm1/q2dm6) Poland [3:1] Sweden (q2dm7)

Poland won the 4th map in a fairly convicing manner is in in short time now facing Finland in the grand final!

NDML: Thursday is the day!2007-06-11 16:12 | daelmun
The last couple of games in the Nations Deathmatch League are to be played this Thursday, so be sure you are ready for the last big Q2-happening before the Summer holiday kicks in.

Semifinal to be continued
As most of you know by now, the semifinal between Sweden and Poland was suffering from server-crash which caused the 4th map to be replayed from the start and thus rescheduled (server crashed with <20 seconds left). This Thursday the remaining maps will be played, with Poland having a 2-1 lead coming into the final maps.

:: Thursday @ 19:00 CET ::
(q2dm2/q2dm1) Poland [2:1] Sweden (q2dm7)

The Grand Final
Shortly after the last semifinal is decided, the grand final of the NDML will be played. Where defending champion Finland is ready to face whoeever is victorious in the previous matchup, in the last game of the league. Should be a thriller.

:: Thursday @ 20:00 CET ::
Finland vs Poland or Sweden

NADL: Here we go, again :>2007-06-11 13:54 | daelmun
After an unsuccessful first try on running the league, the admins of the North American Duel League have decided to give it another go, after running a quick poll to decide when to kick it off.

Signups
Allthough primarily North American (not forgetting our Mexican brothers) players are encouraged to sign up, there is no stopping players from other parts of the world to sign up as well.

Hopefully this will spark some life into the duelling scene in North American, more so than the unsuccessful 1v1 ladder hosted by GGL ( Lambo! is currently at the top). Ladders turns out to be very ineffecient way of running leagues for quake2 in North America at least.
