( Major News: Gaming)

Posted by wch @ 02:25 CST, 18 February 2007 - iMsg

Event: CPL'07

Scheduled: 21:00 CDT, 11 October 2007 to 05:00 CDT, 14 October 2007
Schedule: Passed

Update :: This event has been cancelled!

From the crew behind CPL Australia in 2006, Ping Events - comes news of the

CPL World Tour stop and associated events for

Australia in 2007.

From www.cplaustralia.com

June 9-10 2007
The Western Winter Showdown 2007 is set to raise the roof of Perth's newest landmark.

Hosted at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre, the Western Winter Showdown breaks the mould of current computer exhibitions by creating an interactive, enlightening and vibrant atmosphere for the attendees, with arcade machines, gaming kiosks, give aways and door prizes complimenting the already massive array of structured gaming competitions.

October 12-14 2007
The CPL Australia 2007 World Stop will be the greatest professional computer gaming competition in Australia this year.

Hosted at Sydney Olympic Park, the site of the massive Sydney 2000 Olympics, the venue will be home to over 500 cyber-athletes over three days. The CPL Australia 2007 World Stop will be part of the 2007 CPL World Tour, which will visit such events such as DreamHack in Sweden. Quake 3, Counterstrike 1.6 and Warcraft 3 DotA will be the three largest competitions, with winners qualifying for the CPL World Final.

The official press release from The CPL can be found HERE

*vomit*

Homebush is THE WORST VENUE IN THE ENTIRE FUCKING COUNTRY.

1) IN THE MIDDLE OF NO WHERE. Trust me, despite what the map might suggest.
2) NO ENTERTAINMENT WHAT SO EVER

On the plus side you have pretty good accom considering there is a novatel up the road, and it is near a train station.

I doubt they were supposed to announce this, I'd assume a CPL World Tour announcement would be announced with every other event(or at least the first event announced first), or be announced on the CPL website first.

the western winter showdown happened, my team was the only one for WiC so they've delayed wic to a later date supposedly. They also ran fear as 5 min single map single elim cause god forbid the main competition actually takes some time (it also doesnt help when I spawned infront of hax 6 times in a row in the exact same place to be met with a grenade to the face =/ )
