Congratulations to all these teams, especially the division winners, I suspect you can look forward to some harder matches next season. Thanks also must go out to all the active admins this season, especially to the top 5 by activity, apoca!ypse, DipshiT, Areonos, Triad-X and B-one. 2 of these admins were also in the 5 most active last year, so it's nice to see some new faces appearing! Thanks also go to the people who provided extra coverage for the cup with Interviews, Predictions, ShoutCAST and UTV, the World would be a much more boring place without you.

I would like to thank the co-supervisors that have put so much time and effort into making this cup a success. First of all to Warchild who helped start the cup, and had it not been for unforseen circumstances, would have done his best to make this cup a sucess.

Secondly I'd like to thank Ginga_Ninja for stepping in to help when Warchild wasn't around for the first few weeks.

Lastly and most importantly, I'd like to personally thank BADMF who joined during the cup which isn't easy from my own experience, but supervising the cup was second nature to him. He has done an exceptional job, and his level of commitment and dedication to making this cup a success has been admirable. I'm sure you will see him for many cups yet.

This has been my second Cup as a Supervisor on ClanBase, but the first without a Supervisor to guide me. I have found Supervising the cup at times hard, but enjoyable, and as well as being a learning experience! I'm sure you'll see a lot more from myself and my Co-Supervisor in the coming seasons.

Lastly, but by no means leastly, the awards for the top 3 clans in each division have now been entered and you'll get your icons (if you get them). There has been no news yet on a Summer Cup, but for those going on holiday, have a great time and hopefully we'll see you for the Fall 2005 Cup!

The match between fd vs ez was played on Thursday 19 May click here for match-report

While server-testing, server testing is a part of the Match itself, and will be treated as such, .ez-ironY was caught using Illegal tweaks.

Since fd already won this match the outcome will not be changed, however .ez-ironY will be banned from Next cup + 3months from the ladder.

While the match between [k] vs MnZ was about to start, they where testing servers. Server testing is a part of the Match itself, and will be treated as such.
While server testing Kixo, who is a member of k , was logged, using MasterTimer.

Read the rules here

In-game cheating during a ClanBase match:
Traces of cheats (e.g. variable settings) without actual cheating: 1-season cup ban + 3-month ladder ban for the player, forfeit loss for the clan.


With other words:
* Kixo is banned from the ladders for 3months and will be banned from next Cup.
* k loses the match by forfeit, and instead of Gold they go Silver.
* New Gold : MnZ

In a tight war, Tactical Suicide managed to beat the apes, and take bronze, etc.

After winning TDM-Div1-Gold, [w]hiners were able to defeat the very strong firedevils and deserved the CTF-Div2-Gold after a exciting war! REPORT ONLINE NOW!!!1111 ;)

[k] win in a fairly one-sided war...

Very close game between pa and ls, and the latter win the 5th map after 15 mins overtime!

ezekiel grabs the div2 bronze, congratz.

The remaining FINALS (div2, div3) and bronze (1,2,3) should be scheduled by Thursday, May 26th, 18:00 CET.

If not we will set it on a day that we think is nice. It would be sad if we would force it on a day when a clan woudn't be able to play.

tonigh the oc was going to ber played without admin so i had to do smtg and just did it with the help of sirkane who made utv (thx m8) and here is what happened

Nothing to do on a foggy morning, so I decided to do some short predictions on this promising match :)

In a fairly onesided but yet exciting game, fd emerges as winners in a tough struggle between two of division 2's strongest clans. Report and screenshots available.
