End of 2009 Roundup
December 24, 2009
Daykiller steps down from his duties
One of ETF2L’s founders, dAyKiLLeR, is stepping down from his role as head admin to pursue real life interests and finish his degree. He has put two years and countless hours into the ETF2L project, so I think I speak on behalf of all of us when I say thanks and good luck to Day, who has been an inspirational leader throughout his tenure.
D2M has been promoted to head admin in Day’s absence.
Ladder update
All of the new soldier and demoman weapons are permitted in ladder play if both teams agree on their use before the match begins. We’re also going to add Gorge and Doublecross to the map pool so you can test those in 6v6 too.
Koth cup reaches its final stage
Keep your eyes peeled for the grand final of our 4v4 King Of The Hill cup, which will be an all German affair as TFPortal summiteers take on Game Control.
Obscure 1 Night Cup Won by SHIFTPLAY
Another fun cup was won by a German team with SHIFTplay winning first place in our Obscure one night cup.
If you’d like to have your say about the map, head on over to the thread to add your thoughts about it. Do you think it should be in the map pool/fixed maps list for 2010?
Support lvl up TV
Our friends over at Level Up TV are in the running for some fantastic prizes from LiveStream. Help them out over the holiday period by visiting the competition website and vote for them. Hopefully we’ll get to see some ETF2L games cast in high quality next year.
Merry Christmas and a Happy new year
And finally, the staff at ETF2L would like to extend our best wishes to you, your family, and your teammates this Christmas and New Year. Thanks for a great 2009, and let’s work together to make 2010 an even better year for TF2.
merry xmas eve homos! :D
6v6 25th dec 7am (5 maps) /q
merry xmas every1.

Merry christmas!
merry christmas! hope valve does some major map releases this year :)
Merry Christmas to everyone – hope you have a great time with your family and friends :)
Daykiller did a fantastic job for ETF2L, and will be a difficult person to follow. It’s a privelige to be asked to help out as Head Admin, and I hope that all of the players and our Admin teams have a very successful 2010. I’m very much looking forward to Season 7 and some cups next year. You’ll see cups available on the ETF2L site as well as ESports Heaven – so make sure you sign your team up on each site!
One final thing – if you have any admin queries over the next few days, please be mindful that it is Christmas, and we may take slightly longer to answer a query than usual. If it’s not urgent please try and wait a day or two before asking!
P.S. Don’t drink and drive!
Merry christmas! And yeah gotta agree that daykiller did an amazing job, thumbs up!
P.S. Don’t drink and drive – inject speed and fly!
grtz d2m, merry xmas everyone :D

thanks daykiller! you did an amazing job running this site!
thx for everything day! We might´ve had some differences over the last years, but we all owe our gratitude to you for helping/making etf2l as big as it is right now.
I hope D2M can restore the connection between the head admin and the tf2 community, as i’ve missed some presence from daykiller lately (he has a RL so who can blame him :D)
Another time, mucho gratias Daykiller and gl to D2M, merry xmas and a happy new year
While I’ve disagreed with some decisions made by the administration, I respect, and am thankful for, the effort put into by dAy and all of the other admins (and ex-admins) who have spent time and effort making the league into what it is today.
thx bros
R.I.P. Daykiller.
You made a really good work!
And merry xmas!
Merry Christmas all!
I’ve known D2M a fair while now, ever since he started playing TF2 properly I think, and I am sure of one thing, he will be a fine head admin. He has alot to offer the TF2 community, and his passion and drive for the game will shine through in the coming months.
POWERSTANCE
Gl D2M
GERMANS FTW!
Thanks very much for all the hard work dAy and good luck in the future! Congratulations to D2M :D
