VanillaTF2

Trell — So, as promised (I know the last post title was misleading), here is the information that we have so far.  Group stages are set to start at 7pm UK time, 8pm CEST.

Noted by each game is the one we plan to cast in each ’round’.   Comedian and  Pledge are on site to guide you through the games, and out stream setup is live right now.

Read on to see the schedule and what we’re casting.

Lucky Luke — About time we’re posting this! That’s right. As always, this (20th) edition features some great clips from players all over the world. March is already in production, and don’t forget to submit your best clips!

Trell — The time is upon us – or will be in a matter of mere hours.  Insomnia gaming festival has come around once again, and the usual precursor to the larger Summer installment is once again showing some love to our favourite FPS.

 Tapley is once again your tournament host, with up to 4,800 GBP in the prize pool, as well as highly coveted i46 tickets for the eventual winners.  If, like me, you’re missing out on attending, don’t worry, because we have you covered.  On site streaming will be provided by  Comedian, with  Pledge,  Byte,  CUBE and Bones inside the lan as part of our coverage team.  I’ll be reporting as much as I possibly can via articles too – so you don’t feel left out.

The tournament is scheduled to start at 6pm local time (so 7PM CET) on the Friday with the group stages, the elimination stages on Saturday, and the Grand Final on stage at 1pm on the Sunday.

I have this quote direct from Tapley to pass on to you lovely people:

I wish to say that alot of the tf2 crew are already down here enjoy a few drinks and games and looks to be a fun event and a good warm up for the megalan that will be i46! (trans continental opponents may be visitng us also at i46 :D) so if people want to know what to expect at i46 tune in to VanillaTV this weekend and the finals cast on sunday to enjoy the atmos!

We will be going live at around 5pm BST (6pm CET) tomorow covering all the best matches of the initial group stages. Be sure to keep an eye on VanillaTF2 for any information on brackets, and be sure to tune in all weekend for some incredible TF2 action!

 Califax — I guess Shintaz’ Mum made it fairly easy for you guys to correctly guess it was Team Infused’s medic  Duncan “Dunc” Wraight answering the questions in The Guess-Who-Interview #2.

Time for interview #3! Read on and post below who you think it is!

Tell us, who is your father, who is your mother? 

My father, Manfred, works as an electronics technician. He is happily married with Jutta, who works as a housewife. They have two children, a daughter and a son – me.

Trell — Tonight sees high level ETF2L Highlander action as the unbeaten titans of  SNSD face off against  Choir Tai, who have had a somewhat disappointing season, only managing to grab 1 win out of 3 games.

Conceivably, if SNSD manage to pull of a win on both of tonights maps (koth_lakeside and cp_foundry), they could have the championship all but sewn up.  Choir Tai will be looking to throw a spanner in the works though, and I’m sure they won’t roll over easily, especially considering tonights maps.

 Comedian is very kindly streaming tonight, despite having to work all day and still fit in packing for i45 (look forward to tomorrow for your TF2 i45 survival guide), so huge thanks go to him – whilst the Panda loving  Hildreth will be providing casting duties, with a secondary caster TBD.

ETF2L will be providing another cash prize for a lucky viewer – a whole 25 GBP – more information on this will be given during the cast.
