Bball fun cup and prize distribution for Season 11

Date February 26, 2012

Bball Fun Cup

You may believe your eyes. It is again time for a proper game of Team Fortress 2 basketball.

For those of you not familiar to the concept of bball: It is a gamemode (map) where 2 teams of 2 soldiers try to rocket jump with the intelligence to each others basket. Grab the best rocket scientist from your friends list you know for your 2on2 team (create one here) and sign up your team now.

All matches up to the semi finals are played best of one. The final is played best of three which means whoever wins two maps wins.

  • Round of 128: 20.00 CET
  • Round of 64: 20:30 CET

Updates on the banner contest

As mentioned in our previous post, we are holding a banner contest! Design a fresh new banner for our header, submit your piece of art to [email protected] and the best submissions will be placed for a public vote. We already received some interesting submissions, keep it coming!

There are few conditions we have on the banner that must be met before we will consider it for our site:

  • It has to be 1000×210 pixels in size
  • It must contain the Tt eSPORTS logo (logo pack available here) and Multiplay logo (logo pack available here)
  • The Tt eSPORTS logo may not be edited (it must be the same colour and form as the ones in the logo pack)
  • It must contain a “powered by Multiplay” image (download link if/when we find one)
  • It must contain the letters E, T, F, 2 and L (in that order)

The deadline for all submissions is Sunday, March 11!

As a little incentive, our new sponsor Tt eSPORTS will provide a Tt eSPORTS SHOCK One headset for the winner.

Bans

Again something new on the ban front. Firstly, the recently announced ban of UK IV will be shortened from 45 days (i.e. the rest of the running season) to one match (i.e. the next match his team is playing). The reason is that after revising his case, the punishment was seen as too harsh by the admin staff under the circumstances.

Unfortunately, we have to announce another ban as well. Finland BLinK is sidelined for the next match of his team for making racist remarks about his opponents.

Also, after some time, we can announce another cheater ban! Sweden Frappe puts shame on the Swedish community. He is banned from all ETF2L competitions for one year and all matches of the current season he played in will be set to a default loss.

  • UK IV – 1 match – heavy insults and threats of violence
  • Finland BLiNK – 1 match – Racist remarks
  • Sweden Frappe – 1 year – Wallhack, aimbot

    Nah it’s a mechanical keyboard, it’s pretty valuable. Plus people would actually get a use out of a prize as a keyboard because people usually aren’t as attached to theirs as they are a mouse.

    For this banner, should we leave space for the search box and the “Team Admin, Log Out” stuff?

  10. CanFo: (Legend) - [HA] - #T4F said:

    Sylosin: The Login stuff can be moved elsewhere on the banner, it does not have to be in the top right corner
