ESFI's IEM "3-a-days" - Quakelive Part 2 (22 comments)

( Major News: QL)

Posted by xou @ 04:14 CST, 23 February 2011 - iMsg

Event: IEM5

The second part of the IEM5 Quakelive Finals preview by ESFI World has just been published yesterday. This new piece focuses on Group A, and more specifically on

fazz,

strenx and

av3k.

Here is a short excerpt of the little conclusion on strenx:

The majority of Quake fans will have no second thoughts in placing their bets on Baeza finishing in the top three to advance out of this group [...]. Along with Av3k, the pair seem like locks to move on, and it's not a stretch to have strenx at the very top above Av3k.

The integral write-up can be found on ESFI World.

Playquake interviews HouseofQuake (51 comments)

Posted by draven- @ 14:59 CST, 21 February 2011 - iMsg

The new Quakelive community site PlayQuake.com interviewed the House of Quake admins

wBOBc and

HowHard. Here is a snippet:

HoQ started off as a small site, are you pleased with how it’s evolved and do you have any plans to improve the site in the future?
We’re also planning a LAN some point this year in the UK (Manchester), no info as of yet but it will definitely be happening some point this year. We’re also talking to what is hopefully going to be our new sponsor (no names yet but it’s a big unexpected brand), if so then we hope to provide big prizes @ the LAN and possibly the leagues as well.
