Season 7 Status and Config – Admin search – Award Winners

Date February 1, 2010

Season 7: A big welcome to 330 teams!

The European Team Fortress 2 League and it’s admins are glad to be able to welcome 330 participating teams to the 7th ETF2L season sponsored by Steelseries.

Below you will find a list with the teams and their divisions. If your team is not on the list, don’t worry, there is still a huge chance you will be able to replace one of the teams that will fold at the start of this season. The exact divisions and fixtures will be published along with the announcement of the prizes in a newspost next weekend. The first week will start on the 8th of February and it’s schedule deadline will be on Sunday the 14th.

Season 7 – Provisional Divisions

The provisional divisions have been sorted for Season 7 – Provisional Divisions

This has been an exhaustive task, as there were unfortunately a large number of teams that signed up for Season 7 and have subsequently got less than 5 players in their team. We have replaced any team with less than 5 players left in their line-up. The teams with 5 players – you must have 6 players in your squad by Sunday 7th February 2010 or you will be replaced by a team on the waiting list.

As usual, there will likely be some teams unhappy with the divisional level they have been placed in. If you wish to discuss this, please send me an email to: d2m [at] etf2l.org. In your email, please link us to any supporting screenshots/evidence to help with your argument to be moved divisions. I’d greatly appreciate it if you could give a link to download the screenshots, not attach them to your email. This is an invitation to discuss your team’s position with us and allow us to better place your team should we feel it is necessary. Please note that rage posting on the forum or news comments will not assist your team in any way.

Config Update

In the great updates valve has blessed us with 2 new commands drew our attention. The first one turns off the random spread pattern of weapons like the shotgun and uses  a fixed pattern instead. The second one allows the use of the ingame voice-chat for talking to your team, even while you are dead.  Both are perfect for competitive gaming. And the official ETF2L config will therefore be updated with those 2 commands. Please update your server with this new version of our config and use it in any upcoming Cup, Ladder and League matches.

  30. D2M: vertex » - derptex9 said:

    If you’re read all of the news posts, you would have noticed that the position you signed up in had absolutely nothing to do with whether you’d get into this season or not :)

  31. Misaka Mikoto: 9 said:

    I found my team in the list, but Admin panel still says we are in the wait list.
    I am doing it wrong?

  32. FlagZero: guru - G-Yoda said:

    Div 5 here we come!…………….In the meantime lets play some ladder wars.

  33. CanFo: (Legend) - [HA] - #T4F said:

    n2o-gaming dropped as well… They have only 2 players left in their roster

  34. Admirable: (Toucan Ambassador) said:

    eMpabaddies in div2! gg :D

  35. kaidus: 7 - WiK? said:

    They needed a team to give the rest of div2 a snooze week : >

  36. Lord_of_DooM said:

    gz Zerox :)

    Well, do the Admins rly think its fair for all that some teams selected who got not even 6 man in the roster?

  37. Fluffy Meowington: TC.Potat said:

    I read them over dinner, I hope that’s acceptable too.

  38. Koeitje: AUTOBOTS said:

    It’s all part of the etf2l special needs program Admi :D

  39. D2M: vertex » - derptex9 said:

    Well, do the Admins rly think its fair for all that some teams selected who got not even 6 man in the roster?

    A number of those teams have probably folded/dropped without bothering to tell us. Which was the same with 20-25 teams who signed up for the league and then vanished, telling us nothing and expecting us to have to check each team page to see if they could still play.

    Any teams with less than 5 on their roster should be removed already. Any team with 5 players has until Sunday 7th February 2010 to get 6 players otherwise they will be replaced.

    Pro tip for teams looking to get into Season 7: Email me using the details in the news post, with screenshots etc. Also, if you have any ladder games played – you will have a better chance :)

    internecine has been spelt wrong :D

    Glad D2M had the balls to put vertex in div3 after what happened last season, well deserved. Bit pissed on behalf of Piggy Bankers who finished 3rd above vT in 4th yet vT are promoted and Piggy Bankers aren’t. Obviously the 2 div 1 players added to vT’s roster couldn’t be ignored and it’s probably the right decision. Also Team Stinson finished 3rd in a division with less teams and they are promoted. That’s my only whine.. gota feel for those bankers :[

  41. D2M: vertex » - derptex9 said:

    There’s currently one space in Division 3…. and about half a dozen teams that want it! Piggy Bankers are welcome to email us and stake their claim for the spot too :)

    The majority of changes that have been made, were done so through the screenshots/emails received by teams that requested a change and an team decision from the admins.

    I’ll sort that spelling in a bit mate!

    Question: All Fixtures show wrong maps. Shouldnt be first week Granary and Gorge? Or was it that all maps mentioned in the news a while ago would be randomized?

  51. D2M: vertex » - derptex9 said:

    Maps are correct. http://etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-8847/page-1/?recent=148002#post-148002
