SteelSeries Announces New SteelSeries QcK+ Limited Edition With SK Gaming

Date June 12, 2009


The leading manufacturer of innovative professional gaming gear, SteelSeries, today announced a new gaming surface in cooperation with SK Gaming, one of the most accomplished professional gaming organizations in the world.

m0re compo “finnish”:ed

Date June 1, 2009

For no obvious reason, a small competition was held in the ETF2L-forums to celebrate the release of m0rehud for the spy/sniper update. The objective was to heap PRAISE on the release and the best one-liner would receive a mighty fine prize.

“tarmo-” got things just about right with:

“thanks m0re for this amazing hud :)! tf2 hasn’t been pleasant to play without this. after you try more’s hud, you cant switch back. :D!”

For his PRAISE, he shall receive a headset of his choosing, delivered to his cot this week and at the same time, robbing -9m- Gryzors pocket. I am not amused. Thanks for participating!

Original thread is located here and keep watching our forums.

Please have in mind we might give away Minor Warnings for teams who don’t make any effort to schedule their matches. Also a not submitted result or an agreed date outside the normal schedule can be a reason for a warning. Every team who accumulate 3 Minor Warnings in between one Season will get a point deduction (see Rule 2.12).

Spy & Sniper Unlocks

As we have already stated on our forums, all new weapons which were released for the Sniper & Spy are forbidden unless both teams agree otherwise.
