Best Game Ever

Last night, HD and US played what is in my opinion, the best LMCTF match ever ! US took an early 3-0 lead in the match, but HD managed to come back and win 4-3. Congrats to both teams. I'm looking forward for another one like it in the finals !  You can download the demo here.

All-Stars match
Just a quick word to say "thumbs up" to all the guys that have been chosen for the all-stars game ! Should be a great one !

The Gods Shine Down on UD

Hi all,

Sorry about the news page, I've been quite busy with RealLife(tm) the past few days.

First of all, Khan[VT] sent us a SS of their 6-1 victory over clan dS. And he also mentioned this: "It was a GREAT game for everyone involved. The results for the match were 6 - 1 VT over dS. It was a mad house match and everyone left in good spirit. They put up the hardest match we've ever faced, and they did it with alot of class."

Sean of the Clan of Pooh sent me another screenshot of their match against 7DS. 7DS won this match 2-0 and Sean had this to say: "It was a very fun match and I think shows how much we have improved as a result of playing in the Ragnarok Tournament. Hard to believe it was just our seventh match against another Clan. Oh well off to last place on the list :)" Keep on the good work pooh !

Also, clan UD had a BIG win over clan OS. They won their match 4-2. Congrats guys !

Clan FragFrogs (I think I know 'em :-), got their asses kicked up and down against clan US. I'm too embarassed to give the final score here :) Just want to say that these guys are amazing ! Can't wait to see their game against HD on week 10. Should be a great one !

I am Leaving IT

Most of you probably don't care about this, but I'm posting it because it has a slight bearing on the tournament. I am leaving the company Incredible Technologies to go work with the team that created Mortal Kombat at Midway Games. This means that I will no longer be running the IT server, and I will be unable to be contacted through ICQ. I will also be very busy, so I have distributed some of the tasks to other members of the staff. Please check there if you have any problems or questions. I will still answer all of my e-mails at night and continue to run the tournament, so feel free to contact me if you feel it necessary.

Clan FSK & Easy Match Setup

MAD vs FSK

Clan MAD defeated clan Forsaken 7-2 on bloodbath. Great game between great clans ! Thanks to Hellspawn for sending in the screen shot. He said: "I must say, setting up the match with Forsaken was one of the easiest I've had in a long time. We setup the date/time in a short conversation, and agreed to a server within 15 minutes. Kudos to them for being so easy to get along with!". Always nice stuff to read ! Keep on the good work guys !

MOE Squeaks by CBD

CBD vs MOE

Dabba[CBD] sent me the demo of their match against MOE on bloodbath. It ended up with a 4-4 caps count, but MOE won by frags. Great game guys ! This one will probably win the "Ragnarok game of the 7th week award" :-)

Thanks for sending those guys. It really helps me with the news page and I hope people like that kinda stuff. Send me more !

New News

Heya all ! If you're like me, you like to read some stuff on a news page everyday. So I'll give a hand to Batstone for the rest of this tournament. He's been doing all by himself since the beginning, so don't blame him for the lack of news updates :) First I would like to announce Rag MVP's for the 5th week. But before I do that, I'd like to explain a couple of things about highlights. First, you have to play your game on time if you want to be considered for the highlights picks. Pretty obvious, now da real stuff. Well, it's not an easy task to choose 2 guys among all a week's MVP's. I don't really care about 22 - 0 or so matchs. Unless it's HD loosing ;-). I just think it's not pretty exciting to watch that kinda match. I like close games, where one player really made a difference in the match result. So enuf talking ! Here are the 5th week's heroes :)

Offense MVP!
Joghe(Kiukku). He had 8 caps outta 10 in his clan's victory over SFA. Great job dude !

Defense MVP!
DT|Hardcase. He played awesome in his clan's 5-2 victory over clan FF. I sure know 'cause I was there ! :-) You can see him in action in the "demos of the week"

For the next weeks, we'll make different "weekly highlights" for both Open and Modem division. Feel free to send me your comments and demos for the rest of the tournament. Happy Fraggin' !

Match of the Week

Check the Weekly highlights section for the most hyped up match of the week.  This is a matchup that we all would like to watch and should be very exciting right down to the end.  This week's matchup is #1 FF vs. #1 OS in the modem division.  Should be a good one.
