sYn pHrEAk writes "Monday, June 9th at 9:00pm EST has been announced as the opening date and time of registration for the world's best LAN party (is it a WAN party?). Last year's QuakeCon included over 1300 people and computers in the BYOC area and well over 3,000 attendees. This year there's $125,000 on the line through three official tournaments: Quake 3 1v1, Quake 3 CTF, and Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Frag ya there!"

Four Tournaments by Albert+Pussyjuice · 2003-06-09 04:16 · Score: 4, Informative

There are actually two separate tournaments involving RTCW. There's the RTCW: Team Tournament that will have 64 teams - six players per team. And there's the Wolfenstein Enemy Territory tournament that will let "128 lucky attendees" do battle for a $4,000 top prize!
Check out this pic from the gallery...are you getting pumped for Doom III yet? THE EVIL LIVES ON!

Yeah. Damn them for changing something. Anything. Don't they know that all gamers are stauch conservatives who never want to change anything, ever?
