Well, one year later, this offer is still valid. I didn’t get too much of an echo, unfortunately - Come on, lazy pickup players! Come back, all the Italians in that closed TFC group on facebook! :| Could we just do this one last time, and then I’ll shut up, ok? Just one. last. time. I’ll let you all live your stupid little real lives that are NOT filled with TFC. Just, please? It’s really not that much work, really. It’s JUST TFC. People, you can’t keep nagging and being all sad about how TFC was the greatest game 10 years ago.

Well, here we go again, first post of the year for the second time in a row! GGDB I finally got GTFCDB fixed - or should I say GGDB, because that’s what I call it now. The Global GoldSrc Database. I’ve always liked Ricochet and I also wanted to extend it to DMC - after some days it was clear to me that the easiest thing to do was just to open it for all GoldSrc games directly, before creating graphics for only Team Fortress Classic (TFC), Ricochet and Deathmatch Classic (DMC) and then having to create other images for possible extensions like Half-Life Deathmatch (HLDM) or Opposing Force (Opp4).

Well, this is my first post in almost a year, hooray! I can’t say I’ve been too busy.. I wasn’t bored, I just never came around to blog again.. So, here’s the status. GTFCDB is down for maintanance - this is taking forever. I should just take one week to only work on that so it’ll finally be done.. I also tried introducing WCTFC II as a short event, no great response yet. It’s public for one and a half week now. I’m glad that the old admins are back for the action and I can also announce some new crew, Mighty and Demon.

So yesterday, the World Championship of Team Fortress Classic had its opening game… ATCHIT vs. ES, and it was a good game. ES was always only 2 caps in advance, often only one - but that was enough for victory. :) What else, what else. It’s 11 teams now. Rules are done since a week or two. We found some servers…. Yes, “we”, I hired admins. The WCTFC admins are (chronologically) me, Era, culomb0 and tuffty. :D

I originally wanted to build my own website, but that is too much effort for such a little cause. Then I wanted to use the interfaces of other leagues. My thoughts were NTFCL, Wireplay, someone even said ETF2L. Nothing really worked out. Now I will use the free tourney.cc interface. It looks ok and is easy to set up. Now I am prepared for the league. :) wctfc.tourney.cc

As you may or may not know, I’m trying to organize a world championship for the Half-Life Mod Team Fortress Classic. This is getting more and more difficult, because there are not many players left. The teams that are (almost) full are 🇺🇸USA, 🇨🇦Canada, 🇩🇪Germany, 🇬🇧UK, 🇵🇱Poland, probably 🇫🇮Finland and perhaps 🇪🇸Spain. Now it’s the question what to do.
