// Map pool

cloud
cloud2
country
jungle1
riot
rok
time
tequila

// Tiebreaker pool

beer
deepcanyon

plaza
revolution

// Joker

In the beginning of the tournament each team has one(1) so called Joker Card, which allows them to pick a map within all the maps. This were made to balance the difference between teams whose homemap are in the actual pool.

Example: If one knows they're facing though situation coming up with the next match, they can use a joker and play their homemap instead of picking map out of the pool. Tiebreaker can't be replaced with a joker card.

I have to agree, cloud2 is a bit of a weird choice. Very flat and with no landmarks. But we will see how it plays during the matches. With more of these events we will see what maps play well, both from a spectating/broadcasting perspective aswell as the player perspective.

Looking forward to this tournament. Tastyspleen, GlobalGamers and AQ0 did an amazing job with the first one. Thumbs up, keep up the good work!

Since none of the teams haven't announced that they need another servers, if so we'll see what we can do. For keeping up in the very teeth of the time, pls visit us #eic @ QuakeNet.

This from earlier today:
18:45 @lintumies • ok, so now ESF, EyeCandy and AQOnline have promised to provide servers for our use
18:46 Delta` • cool
18:46 @lintumies • great, so clan leaders and players: if you feel your team wants to play on some other server that isn't in the list, pls contact me and i'll see what we could do
18:46 DoDzy • you can probably get fubar server and aq.is servers if you need them (for matches between europe and NA)
18:47 DoDzy • to keep the ping as low as possible :P
18:47 @lintumies • ye, thanks for bringin that up, i've been thinkin about asking their hosts, but since none of the NA teams haven't signed up, we have no need
Some of the players have been complaining about forcing ac makes their aq2 uncomfortable - we don't want that. I fully understand your concern for this choice of ours, but we'd like to keep it more old school; back then when someone was accused using cheats, we recorded him and posted demos about him, discussed and decided about the material and the consequences. These cup matches are being fully recorded and streamed live to the net. You see the resemblance?
