Ubi Concordia, ibi Victoria

Huge thanks goes out to all of the guys that donated to the community pot, all of the UK managers that stepped in where needed and every team that signed up and paid to enter the Championship division.

On top of that, massive thanks to SmellyMoss the ED/UKeSA admin who has been an incredible help throughout the process, regularly going out of his way to aid our push to Premiership.

It will be interesting to see what this will mean for the community.

Best evidence that tf2 isn’t dead, as soon as the prize pot gets announced more mgos will surely be interested (then they’d pick us up) and more players will start competetive tf2 and shizzles.

Gj dunc, skre all the donators and everybody who helped spread the word :F
