Skyride left us with this:

Hey guys, just wanted to post up a little news for those of you who don’t regularly read the ETF2L forums. Myself and a few other have just last week restarted #pixeltf2.pickup. For anyone unaware, the channel was originally started sometime in summer last year, but ended up fading away into a bottomless pit of inactivity due to a number of issues. However recently there has been quite a lot of interest in reviving the channel and thanks to an initial offer from Huhy, followed by some great help from Waebi, Buffalo Bill and CanFo, we’ve got the channel up and active again and are making sure to learn from our mistakes. Infact, here’s just how active it is:

• 398 Players invited
• 157 Pickups in the last 8 days
• That’s roughly 22 pickups per day!
• Multiple occasions where there has been 3 pickups running simultaneously
• 3.1GB of SourceTV demos
• 55GB of bandwidth used by TF2 servers alone

Update: STV for BiG vs SNSD fixed: connect fakkelbrigade.eu:27001

Only 8 teams remain in the Highlander Community Challenge! Tonight TF2TV will be bringing you two of the games from the quarter finals of the cup stage, so expect some heated competition as the big names clash head-to-head! Sheridyn and Comedian will be bringing you all the action tonight, as we see a return to the classic highlander maps gravelpit and badwater (with viaduct as a decider).

In related news, Monday night will see the remaining four teams in the quarter finals duke it out, as Badmen Enterprise take on May Contain Nuts, and Lokalen Alpha battle with TPlay.Circlejerk. Stay tuned for more information!

Join us at #TF2TV (IRC, quakenet) for shoutouts and banter!

This evening, TF2 TV will cover Esports Heaven’s One Night Wonder 7. They will start at round 1, and keep on casting until they run out of breath! Your hosts of the evening: The lovely David and Comedian.

The cast kicks off at 20:00 CET (soon), with Enixe vs Core Gaming. Enixe won Division 3 last season, while Core Gaming remained in Division 2, so this match has all the potential to be good! After that, the broadcast team will select an interesting match for round 2, and so on.

This competition will be all about turbine_pro, so if you are looking to steal some pro tactics, come and tune in!

Tune in at www.tf2tv.com

Wednesday will see a showmatch on new map ‘cp_aspiration‘ between: FB and ButtonBashers (Blight). To the best of our knowledge there’ll be no cast, however STV details can be found below.

The lovely chaps over at Esports Heaven announced a new iteration of their One Night Wonder 1-day cups. This ONW #7 will take place next Thursday, the 3rd. Notable facts are:

1. The cup is heavily focused on ctf_turbine_pro, a remake of the well known map, aiming to re-introduce it to competitive play. The map has also been picked up by Wireplay for their current league season, and aditionally, it will be played (amongst others) in TF2 TV’s Teamgasm cup. It looks like the map is on the rise, we’ll soon know if it’s a keeper.
2. The cup will be held in “vanilla” tf2 mode. Does this mean ESH has swayed, or is it just a one time thing?
3. The good people of TF2 TV have let me know they will be covering this tournament. Huzzah!

The new turbine from above.

At the time of writing, there are 19 participants, which means there are 13 slots left in the tournament. If you want to try out this new map, signing up is just a few clicks away. For more information, check out the links below.
