Hi admin apologies I won't get back on time I will be late , will have to place me as backup, hopefully this does t spoil things

unlucky, as said, it's ffa so it's not big deal, it will be played all the same (a different thing it would be if it were UnFreeZe which is exactly why despite being planned for 5vs5 I wouldn't take that for anything bellow 12 people as I know some people is always gonna miss/fail no matter what). ok, given the case I think we can just delay it a bit and start by 21:10 CEST (UTC+02) instead of 21:00 as to give some time to PacMan (or anybody else) to show in time. catch you all this night in-game.

I think it played great, it actually played pretty fast though, I had lowered a bit the fraglimit due the slightly lower turnout and miro absence but it wasn't even necessary, cth/shantu mostly dominated, dramatic bloodcovenant finish included, GGs. as with the more exotic duel matchup I think it worked great and it was refreshing/felt good to play something else beside the main UnFreeZe thing/standard so let's see if the next time we do some CTF here as well. I think that would also be very interesting to make in a more organized way than on previous events so we'll see by now I assume the next thing will probably be a UnFreeZe league. ok, since early before this morning all the event videos/results for this up on its separate thread so check them out, definitively fun to re-watch. catch you on the next one.
