QuakeCon 2009 Day 2
In just a few hours day 2 of QuakeCon 2009 will be upon us along with some amazing competition. Boots and Gillz will hopefully be playing the rest of their 1vs1 matches today in the Open division (I am hoping to see them face each other in the finals). Boot's first match of the day will be against Thump4 while Gillz is set to play Drad1k for his first match of the day. They will be competing for a piece of that $2500 prize payout.
The CTF team has received a bye for the first round and is set to play H2O the CTF team will be competing for a piece of the $25,000 prize pot. I have gone ahead and listed the tournament structure information below along with some helpful information.
Both Ares and myself will be on hand yet again providing updates via the official Area51 Twitter and Myspace. We are also going to try and bring a laptop or two to give very frequent updates to the website (provided we can get connected to the internet) as well.
