5th Cup and Season 7 Continue, Player Ban

Date February 22, 2010

Round 3 of the 5th cup

The live draw for Round 3 fixtures took place earlier tonight in our IRC channel. The fixtures will be input into the bracket as soon as possible, hopefully by tomorrow night. The 32 teams remaining have 2 weeks to play their matches. Good luck to all the teams involved – you’re almost half way to the final!

    Dates and details

  • Maps are Gravel Pit, Freight and Badlands (decider)
  • Schedule deadline: Sunday the 28th of February
  • Match deadline: Sunday the 7th of March
  • Round 4 draw: late on Sunday the 7th of March

Week 2 of Season 7

Season 7 enters its second week with a couple of challenging maps, Turbine and Well, to test your team’s tactical and technical ability. Will Well continue to throw up surprises like we saw in Week 1 with Team Empire drawing with TCM-Gaming and The Last Resort coming back to dominate Well after losing Badlands to FakkelBrigade, just like infernal Gamers did to Mister?

    Dates and details

  • Maps are Turbine and Well
  • Schedule deadline: Sunday the 21th of February
  • Match deadline: Sunday the 28th of February

Using wildcards

We’d also like to ask teams to be considerate of their opponents regarding the use of wildcards. Even though you can take a wildcard any time up to 15 minutes before your match is due to start, that doesn’t mean you should leave your opponents in the dark about whether you’re going to use it or not. Please be considerate and let them know what’s happening in good time.

If, for example, you think that you’re going to have to use a wildcard but aren’t 100% sure, it’s best practise to just use the wildcard rather than wait until the last possible moment to decide. Remember that you have two wildcards for the season. If it happens that you actually can field a team, try and arrange the game for that night, then inform an admin that the game was played and we will give you the wildcard back for future use.

Also please keep in mind that while a wildcard grants you a generous 2 weeks to reschedule, you should make the effort to arrange the match for as soon as possible rather than leave it until the last possible day, risk clashes with other competitions or running into unforeseen circumstances, and incur default losses.

Player ban

It’s with regret that we announce another player has been banned from our competitions.

    blzr, there is a special AC team and the people there have experience in this kind of things and if they recieve a call from some1 to check a cheater out they ask for demos watch them etc.This time some1 gave the admins a demo from a pub(man1a),where sandik was clearly cheating(speedhack…what a moron).

  21. Skie said:

    Good timing lol.

  22. blzr: [LAG] - [MC] said:

    If he hasn’t cheated in an official match what should it matter?There are some movie makers,that use wallhack for an effect for their movies.Should they be banned too?:D Just saying pub rules =/= etf2l/esl rules.Not that I am questioning the AC team’s decision,just alittle interested in this whole situation :D

    were not talking about creative work, were talking about lamers who cheat online to gain advantages in an unfair way.

    im pub cheatah only! your argument is invalid!111 /sarkasm

  38. JimmyBreeze: k^m said:

    The admin team at ETF2L expect you to keep your TF2 account entirely cheat free. I don’t think that’s too much to ask.

    The bottom line is we don’t want people who take part in our league to be cheating anywhere in TF2. If we find evidence that you have been, we’d rather you didn’t participate in our competitions.

    You know, the sad thing is, that he really was hacking… ~5 guys confirmed it. Even I talked with him and he said : “It was fun, I had 200+ points.”. We had a conversation in which he also told me that he used speed hack. According to his words, It wasn’t even hack, he used cheat engine o.O

    Peace out

    That’s not a wallhack it is a cvar (r_drawothermodels) that can be used when the server has sv_cheats allowed i.e. on a local server playing a demo.
