My fellow quakers.
It is with some regret that I must inform you of the fact that we will not be starting a new round of DuelMania in the early stage of 2007. We, the admin team, have over the past couple of weeks discussed a wide range of details regarding the announced DuelMania: Reloaded Pt.2. However due to certain events, which will remain unnamed, we're now unable to field a new tournament as promised. And believe me when I say, we've tried.
We hope that this will change in the coming year, so that we might be able to bring you the tournament you've been waiting for again, but at this time the DuelMania 'Project' has stopped until further notice.
Sincerely, the DuelMania admin team.

maybe its not an admin shortage problem, but it sucks nonetheless.
qw needs tournamens and competitions and this news is seriously a kick in the teeth.

then what's the _real_ reason? :/

If there are admins then that's a technical failure. If i deducted properly, all we need is someone devoting hosting and probably some web-developing skills (gfx + php?). I think if we secure those factors, we can start duelmania or whatever other tournament. So why not start a thread with "seeking people with skills and possibilities" :<

Arent the webpages finished already? No gfx+php and shit needed? What the fuck is the real reason anyway?

I think the owner/author refused. Seems the most probable version. Anyways i can offer hosting, altho it will be .pl. I bet there are people who can host in other countries tho.

As I said it is not _possible_ for the us, the admin crew, to launch the Reloaded Pt.2 season. The reason for which, to put it bluntly, is none of your concern.
However, if any of you have the power and resources, I suggest you check out http://subdevice.org/phpTourney/ where you will find a template for the DuelMania site. It's available to all. And since QH is around the corner, you might have some fun with it at the LAN.

Well we just decided to start a other tournament. The Name of the new 1on1 tournament is "ownage". You can register here: The HeadAdmin will be smerz (if he agree ). http://ownage.qwscene.net/?sid=2 I hope the interess is big. The last Dm got about 200 registed players, so move your ass to our side and signup! And tell your neighbor there is a new 1on1 Tournament for QW!!! Btw im just an Admin with the rights of confirming games, so dont be afraid

02. Registration DuelMania is open for all European QuakeWorld players. However, non-European players are free to sign up as long as they play their matches in Europe. Upon registration you will be given a username and password, this is for reporting matches and is unique for each player, so don't lose it or give it away. Players with multiple registration entries will be disqualified. Hehehe, fair enough you use the default site but atleast you could have copied the ruleset directly from the DuelMania site a bit better Edit: Ah, without checking IRC I noticed you actually asked first. Anyway, might want to check where it says Duelmania and replace it with "Ownage". It's newyears eve, it's 6 o'clock and I'm semi sober so I notice things that should otherwise have been forgotten. Anyway, GL.

Well I thought I found all but you proved me wrong After browsing through the complete rules site with firefox search engine I`m now sure it was the last Duelmania word you saw

Nice work. However I think someone should post this @qw.nu, so that everyone gets the message about the new duel tourney or for want of a better word: Duelmania's replacement. I think this is essential to get as many players involved as possible.

word! I would like to see an own Ownage forum at qw.nu too. So we can handle things better.

why not start a new post instead of reviving this one from 2006 And yes, come on, sign up folks... I saw that Mutilator signed up for upcoming qhlan. gamer quit and prolly don't read this. ParadokS won't play since slackers-tp.cfg doesn't work in 1v1. Inter quit and prolly don't read this. reppie semi-quit, atleast duelling. Prolly won't read this. It could change his decision if he read this Join us on discord.quake.world
