[TSPG] The Sentinel's Christmas Present Event

The Sentinel's Christmas Present
Woo! Official thread!

So what is The Sentinel's Christmas Present?

For those who remember when the TSPG Server cluster came around, an event was made around Christmas time which lasted 4 days (around the Christmas period) where we would play DM on some map packs including a Christmas map pack on Christmas day.

The event did go well except for the last day where people were not up for the rest of it.

So basically, its an event that lasts a few days around Christmas time!

What Are we playing and how long is this lasting for?

We are going to run things here a bit differently then last time.

The event will run for 3 days (on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day).

The wads being played on each day are

Christmas Eve: Spacedm5 + AFTSDM (upon suggestions) TDM
Christmas Day: Christmas Extravaganza map pack FFA/TDM
Boxing Day: Whitemare 2 Survival

Anything else we need to know?

As I said on the planning thread, The Sentinel is also in a very giving mood this year, so we are going to make this event more worth while.

This year, for anyone who participates in this event has a chance on receiving a steam game of their choosing (as long as the price is $40 USD or less) as a gift!

To be in the running for the chance on receiving one, all you need to do is just play :)

Only 6 lucky people will receive this gift and the draws will happen each day the event progresses. You can only get one gift during the event if you have been already picked.

Anything else?

I will be on Armada's Teamspeak server and in #armada during the course of the event. Feel free to come in, say hi, wish people a merry xmas etc!

Hey guys.

Just a reminder that this is still happening!

Feel free if you want to post feedback or ask any questions about anything for this event.

The lack of voice in this thread is scary :P

Ah that reminds me. The games will be held on our US servers. Timezones might be an issue. When I wake up you guys are in the wee hours of the morning. I might have to sleep well so I can throw em up.

I'll think of a time later on today
