Upcoming tournament announcement
In my mailbox today, I received an email regarding a series of upcoming QuakeWorld tournaments. The email is from a Swedish player called zingao, who promises to organize monthly tournaments with cash prizes.

Since I received a statement, I'll let the man talk for himself.

Read on for the statement

Greetings fellow Quakers!

I'm Andréas, also known as "zingao". Within the next couple of weeks, I will be making
a total of three teasers about a tournamentproject that I've started. The
tournament is hosted and play in Europe, but of course people from other regions are
allowed to participate.

The tournament will be hosted on a regular monthly basis, and a prizepool is promised.
I will let you know right away that I will put pure cash into the prizepool, as I prefer
the ability to win pure cash and not computergear or the like. I sincerely hope that
this will reactivate many quakers and make people practice more - making the awesome
QuakeWorld scene more active than ever.

If the tournament results in just 2 new players starting QuakeWorld, or just having 5
people watching the livestream for the first time, I believe I've succeeded and I will
be satisfied.

Why am I doing this?
I love this game, and it has everything it needs - the dedicated people, the awesome
community, etc. It's time to pick up your rocketlaunchers again!

What do I require from the community?
Even though you don't necessarily feel like you're going to win the tournament - sign
up anyway! Let everyone know that we are here to stay. Watch our good
quality livestream, chat in it and listen to the awesome casters.
And of course - talk about us, mention us. Help me help you!

If you want to give any suggestions - just query me on quakenet, anything is welcomed!

"Cool, I hope for a rookie tournament!"

That would be quite tricky if there's cash involved. Plenty of good players would use trickery to get in the tournament for easy win

Ake_Vader, Not yet. It will be announced on the next teaser.

Thank you all, help promoting it!

Beside always mentioning the "rookies" I would also like to see something for the "casuals" ;-)

We need to bring more rookies 1st than they need to train to get better for being competitive players .
