And no, I wont play, 1) I simply don't have the time and 2) Since last decade I can't hit an elephant 2 feet away.![]()
But anyway, this is a cup topic so I wont hijack it (again).

sure maybe ecgn has shortened spawn times and all that stuff doesn't mean they aren't playing "real" rtcw. OSP is a mod too are you gonna say that since OSP is a mod you're not playing wolfenstein either?
we all love RtCW, don't we? i mean the master server has been down for 2 years now and we're still kickin! i wouldn't bash anyone for wanting to play rtcw since it really is one of the best FPS games ever created. modded or not!
i play shrub, osp, banimod, 1.0, 1.4, all that shit because i love this game, so don't bash someone for not playing a mod that you play and call him out on not playing "real" rtcw
It has nothing to do with mods. I'm just saying the settings that exist on ECGN I don't consider real RTCW. Even in the early days before OSP came out we were still playing "real" competitive RTCW. But all the shortened spawn times, limited lives and whatever shrub stuff I don't consider to be real RTCW. It's a fantasy land version, but at the same time I realize it's all that's left of the game so it's better than nothing. But to me, no, I don't consider ECGN to be real RTCW. I didn't consider OLTL to be real RTCW either, and the 3v3 games that the Euros love nowadays is not real RTCW to me either. You can call me an elitist I suppose but I don't care. Shrub has good anti-lag that I wish existed in OSP so I am not anti-shrub, I'm just anti-fantasy pub settings.
This message was mainly directed at EurO who stated "I played the first Anniversary Cup last year, and got destroyed by some teams that did nothing but practice, find the "sweet spots"/glitches on each map, and basically play Wolf unlike any pub round you've ever played. Zero fun, all serious." Well wake up because THAT IS THE GAME. If you don't like the competition aspect that's fine, but stick to ECGN pub land if you don't want any part of serious competition.
Also I agree with everything that 'L0, said. Any decent team that is playing in the cup all do the same strategies. The strategic element and spontaneity of RTCW vanished long ago. The current competition all comes down to execution and Euros being lamers like KiH turning off antilag against Unity. But I'm not going to get into that. After playing in this previous cup I'm done because the Euros play dirty and I'm not participating in their biased cups again.

I don't have faith in any admins but it does sound like an improvement over the last two cups. So I hope this time around the admins will have enough balls to stop the bullshit and corruption of the last two cups.
Zed's cup was so corrupted it was ridiculous as he was being influenced by Merlinator the whole time.

This time around demos will be a MUST have, they will be doing random checks on people. If they can't provide a demo, they will be out of tourney. Everyone is to demo themselves playing. That's good for certain people who we think hacks, or has hacked in the past(playa, nackjee, etc)

Haha, you're one of these guys that has to have the last word and say something to make yourself look cool, eh? It might come as a shocker to you that no one cares - about your avatar, or your accomplishments ingame. Too bad you had to add an emotional aspect to a simple thread. Apparently, after all these years, the truth that "it's not a game" still hasn't set in. When OSP first was released, my clanmate at the time, Rivrstyx, was a main cog in the development, and I accompanied him through the beta. But... you didn't have that information to influence your statements about players "not being able to handle the heat" or whatnot.
Too bad almost every thread on these forums has to have this kind of input.
Back on track, if it's not too late (hint, hint NAMECAPS :)) I'll be a llama!
