Happy New Year! Foundry Cup! Highlander Deadline Reminder! Season 10 Awards Polls!

Date January 1, 2012

Happy New Year!

A year ends and another begins! Last year TF2 allegedly died at least once – all we know is, we’re the biggest TF2 league in the world and all we did last year was get bigger. Happy New Year from everyone here at ETF2L, may 2012 be a good one for all of you!

Foundry Cup!

As most readers will probably know by now, cp_foundry is the latest map created by Valve for TF2. Some good things have been said of it, as well as more than a few requests to add it to next season’s map pool. Before we do that, we’d like to give it a proper test, in the form of a one-night cup! As usual, it’s open to 6v6 teams, however it is also possible to enter this cup using a Fun Team, which can be setup using this page. The draw for the cup will be held at 19:00 CET on Thursday, January 5th, with the cup itself starting at 20:00 CET.

  • Setup – Cups of 16, divided by skill levels
  • Merc rules – 2 mercs allowed by default
  • Bracket draw – Thursday, January 5th at 19:00 CET in #etf2l (irc.quakenet.org)
  • Map – cp_foundry
  • Feedback Thread – Here
  • Sign-ups open – Now

Highlander Deadline Reminder: The Deadline for all Highlander Season 1 matches is this Sunday, January 8th. Please make sure you have played all of your Highlander League matches by then, otherwise we will have to enter a null result.

  28. fluffy: Pinturillo - William said:

    what did last man standing do, exactly?

  29. Sonny Black: (Legend) - SUAVE said:

    “A mainly Russian team who waited quite some time for us to get all our players ready and allowed a merc with no problems for our official. must’ve been quite late for them with the time difference as well. They then proceeded to hand our arses to us on a plate and go undefeated for the entire season. Fairplay.”

  30. .kr4tos: (ETF2L Donator) - FLANK - DGB said:

    ipz and rdios best trolls of the season ! <3

  31. IPZIE: SUAVE said:

    im not trolling im not even voting for you :D

  32. Coco: [d¿s] said:

    that upcoming talent of the season is such bs tbh

  33. FILTHY said:

    +1

  34. .kr4tos: (ETF2L Donator) - FLANK - DGB said:

    im not voting for me as well, cause slate is better. Thats why i wrote that… Wtf?

  35. Coco: [d¿s] said:

    Yeah don’t get me wrong on that, it’s just germans vote for germans, israeli’s vote for israeli’s, … Just the guy with the biggest friendslist will win this :P That’s why it’s useless and doesn’t mean anything :P I don’t know you so I can’t judge you either, but I’m pretty sure there are people out there from the lower divisions who yet need to be discovered who are equally or more skilled than you or slate or xtime or whoever was on that vote.
    Just my opinion, don’t want to bash, good luck on getting your precious title :D
