WCG Europe Male Tournament - Cancelled!

Posted by Myers at 14:18 27/9/2003.

Sogamed reports that the Male CS tournament of the WCG europe event, attended by the likes of SK.swe, 4K Intel, nEph.intel and aAa may have been cancelled.

CS Female: There was a lot of confusion as to how this tournament was going to continue after the 9:00 AM CET start time passed. Since it was group play, tournament officals were considering doing a full 16 single elimination tournament so that when one team loses they are gone.
As of right now groups A and B have been able to setup and are about to start.
CS Male: With the female tournament being delayed it will cause a time shift in the male schedule by about two hours. Males will not even have the chance of starting to play until 3:00 PM CET. It all depends on how fast the female groups go with their tournament and how organized and swift the tournament organizers are.

The irony of all this is of course, that they are using the same computers and equipment as UKTX and the WCG UK Qualifiers.

Competing in the ladies tournament should be the familiar name of SCEE ladies. We will bring updates of this competition if and when they happen.

Update -

There is a fair chance that the Male CS tournament will not go underway at all today.
The way it stands at the moment is that it is canceled due to the delays that happened earlier today. ECG and Samsung are putting more interest in the female tournament due to it being a qualification for the chance to go to WCG.
Since the male teams are already qualified, they have to go with the female tournament to see which team is going.

	DK Stalk Confront Engage Eliminate 14:32 27/9/2003	Male tourney HAS been cancelled, because the winners of the female tourney get to go to Korea. Which all the males have garaunteed anyway. It's underway as we speak with SCEE losing heavily to btbladies (fr). f**ed both pistol rounds apparently, not sticking to tactic practiced. Proper nervous mistakes. About to play Catz (ger) now. Personally I tihnk they should have dropped the other games they have running. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	Chris0 16:34 27/9/2003	The Male CS Tournament WILL be played. The organizers plan to start the male tournament after the female tournament. They want to finish it by 7:00 PM CET, but after looking at the way games are moving it should be noted that it probably won't happen. Look for the Male CS tournament to start around 8:00 PM CET. SK.swe is very happy about this since they should regret in coming to France this weekend to play the tournament and later might not have the chance to play at all. They are looking forward to it. And so are we :) Thank god, least there will be decent CS this weekend! Gl 4K slurp [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	crim 18:02 27/9/2003	"The irony of all this is of course, that they are using the same computers and equipment as UKTX and the WCG UK Qualifiers." HAHHaHHAhahhahaAHHahahhaHHHAhahAHHa end manic laughter :) ... just glad I'm not there working for them fixing the problems. Just remember these few facts that many people blamed on the pc, however:- 1. Not putting the mouse into the ps2 / usb ports WILL mean the mouse won't work. 2. The see through case window door at the front of the power, means you WILL have to open it to turn the PC on. 3. Putting your sound into your next door neighbour's pc - WILL result in you not hearing the sound from your pc! ...... :) that's it ! erm, problems we found - drivers were too new for some of the gefarces and stuff... sound mobo's reset themselves and so on.

	DooMeh Lite 08:44 28/9/2003	0:52 a.m. - We just got the information that the male tournament won't happen after all. As it looks right now, all 8 teams are refusing to start playing now, since some of them already got return flights this morning at 9:00 a.m. CET. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	DK Stalk Confront Engage Eliminate 09:38 28/9/2003	So they cancelled the Females quarter finals for a competition that wasn't going to happen. Well played considering the ladies was playing for $15,000 to Korea!! [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	4K^m0rph 14:57 28/9/2003	WCG paris = biggest joke in the world. They kept us waiting from 12pm - 2:30am to tell us it has been cancelled. I nearly ended up ttting the organiser hardcore. They all said its gonna happen and that. All ended up with the GG,aAa and aT lads helping run the event because the organisers had fed off. Spent around 14 hours doing nothing all day basically bar looking at the tomb raider woman with huge hooters and tickling marc and doug. On top of that we had to wait at the airprot for 2 hours for the f**ing austrians and hungarians to arrive. lol some of the women started crying their eyes out after they were shouted at by their 'coaches' and ran away from the gaming area. Another reason as to why the tourney was called off, GREAT! [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
