Thats right it's happening

So where are we gathering to watch it

We were talking about it the other day, and I was under the impression that we were watching it in London, on IronFist new big projection TV.

All I know for sure is that my place is not an option, as I will not be in town for the weekend.
So I guess I have little at stake eh?

ahh I see talking about it and not informing eh

Yes it's ON

Yes, you read that correctly. DOOM 3 Deathmatch is coming to QuakeCon 2004, and there has never been a more level playing field. With DOOM 3 launching this summer, there won't be anyone who has had time to practice or master the game, and almost any QuakeCon attendee has a chance to walk away with one of the exclusive DOOM 3 prizes. We're not telling you what they are just yet, but let's just say that they're fast. Registration for this 128-player tournament will begin August 12, 2004 – the first day of QuakeCon.

Well, nothing was set in stone. I did not want to inavertantly volenter anyone.

Watching it in London is not really an option, as a)I haven't moved in yet, and b)The TV is in Waterloo.

Are you going to be watching it at your place Thumper? I'm going to be home for the weekend and if you have a setup, then I'll probably stop by on saturday to watch the championship matches.

Does anyone else plan on watching it?

I'll prolly stop in.

well are you crazy i've already been watching some of it.

although I can't seem to find some of the maps

Maybe download the additional mappack for OSP? Or try the other 1 vs. 1 mappack? Last resort would be to search on Fileplanet.

Dunno on that one.

EDIT:

By "other 1 vs. 1" I meant CPMA.
