Due to the bigger amount of players, the top THREE of every group will now go to playoffs. The #1 in each group will automatically go to 1/8 (and therefore skip the first playoff round) The 1/16 games will be played for example a2 vs b3, b2 vs a3 and so on. The winner of a2 vs b3 will then play b1 in 1/8. While this may sound complicated, it really isn't and we think(hope) we know what we are doing:) (rules will be updated before the league starts)
The mapvote is also complete, and you voted for keeping q2dm2 and q2rdm7, removing q2duel1 and match1. The full maplist will be:
ptrip q2dm1 q2dm2 q2dm3 q2duel5 q2rdm2 q2rdm7 ztn2dm2 ztn2dm3
Groups are online, and we hope most players will be happy with them. We've done our best to spread out the strongest players as evenly as possible between the groups, although some will obviously be stronger than others with such a big amount of players. The is also online, so you can already see who you will be playing when.
I would also like to encourage all participants to idle in #edl.q2 so you can easily contact/be contacted by your opponents. Remember, if a game has not been played or scheduled before the deadline, the default win will be given to the player who is online in #edl.q2 at sunday 21:00 CET.
Lastly, remember this league is for YOU, the players! If everyone helps out by staying active enough to play one game/week i'm positive EDL #4 will be one to remember! League starts on monday 13 november, kick some ass! |

Interest for edl has been huge! We have already gotten 64 players signed up and signups is now closed. Due to the increased size of the league some changes to the way we run it might have to be made, we will discuss this in the next couple of days.
In the meantime, thank you to everyone who signed up for showing q2 is still alive and kicking! |

Since 48 people have already signed up, we've decided to increase the limit to 56 players. It's really nice to see this level of interest, so if you want to play there is still a chance! Hurry up and sign! This results in 7 players each in 8 groups. We will increase the limit to 64 if there is interest.

EDL #4 is here! | 2006-11-04 21:51 | ph |

Yep, now it's time once again to crown the greatest 1on1 player in europe! Some things have changed since last season, most importantly syanid and kicia have passed on the job to Pogo and ph. We are ofcource honored by this and hope to make this season at least as good as the previous ones, and with your help we know that's possible!
The have been updated, with the most important change beeing homemaps can now be changed for each game. We believe this will add a strategic element(pick maps you know the opponent hate :) as well as making the league more fun to follow because of greater map diversity.
Another upcoming change is the maplist. However, we feel it's best if the players decide this, so if you sign up please also make a comment of which TWO maps you would like to have included out of match1, q2duel1(aeroq2), q2rdm7 and q2dm2. The rest of the maplist will stay the same as previous season.
Some other both major and minor stuff is also fixed, like last seasons rather bad point system which is now changed to a eq2l-style system.Take a look at the rules for more information. We will allow 40 players to sign up, however this may be extended to 48 or even more depending on interest. Signups will close november 12 21:00 cet and the league will start the next day, november 13.
What are you waiting for?! The to the left is your ticket to fame and glory!
