UKT LAN Finals

Posted by Myers at 18:40 7/5/2004.

The UKT LAN Championships first began at the end of February 03. 16 months and 6 events later (not including UKT-X) we are delighted to announce details of the finals.

The finals will be held on the 7th/8th August at the hub in Hull. Those of you present at UKT6 last weekend will know that the hub is the best lan venue in the UK and we are pleased that they are once again willing to accomodate us.

The format for the finals is as follows. The top 8 teams from the UKT LAN standings will be invited to the competition. The top 4 (TAG, 4K, ONE, I-eS) will advance straight through to the Sunday, whilst the next 4 (FCC, EVD.MM, ForsakeN, S7) will be seeded for the tournament on the Saturday. They will be joined by a further 12 teams (priority given to those on the UKT LAN standings table). The top 4 teams from the Saturday will advance to the Sunday. This format is design to give newer teams an opportunity, whilst giving more established teams a clear advantage.

Any team mentioned above that is unable to make this competition, please let me know as soon as possible. Applications for the final 12 teams on the Saturday will not go live for several weeks.

On a related topic the demos from UKT6 will go live as soon as we can sift through the 8gb worth of matches.

Hull has the best connections in the country because Hull telecom is years ahead of BT </amazing fact>

see if you can use this bandwidth to let TsN on with their proxy at 30 sec delay and have the peons at 60 odd [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

LMFAO is that a joke .... ?

we have only JUST got 1mbit like it only happened on the 1st of aprill, and they have about 15 servers too many in a tracert so you dont get the best pings, so dont say that again unless u live in hull. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

if ur not gonna allow ppl to stand directly behind the players (which i dont mind as long as they aint distracted or having snide comments made about em) then atleast provide a top quality spectator area. cos as smittins said it wasnt that great, and get TsN synced up this time, that would be better.

costs each person about £200 for a weekend in Hull at a UKT lan... that's including hotel, food, entry fee, petrol/train. As nice as the hub is, surely you could try to consider how arkward it is for the likes of ONE myerth.
