"The CPL announced that it is seeking the gaming community's input on what game should be used for a fourth tournament to take place at the Summer 2004 Extreme Championship. The CPL has already announced a $100,000 Counter-Strike tournament, a $50,000 Halo PC tournament and a $50,000 UT 2004 tournament for the Summer 2004 Event.

The community's input will be used to determine general interest and to gauge if CPL's present considerations are in line with the community's wishes, although the CPL cannot guarantee that the game with the most votes will actually be used.

We request that the community goes to the CPL's main forum and enter the
poll. If you think a game should be added to the list or want to make a point on why a particular game should be used please post your comments after casting a vote. The CPL staff and CPL sponsors will be carefully tracking the results of this poll. Please limit your votes to one per person."

You go here to vote(but ns isnt an opton);

What I don't understand is why NS is not an option.

    The NS community isnt that big ... but it would make a great game for CPL.

    I keep getting this when I try to register:

    I would have thought that being a member of CAL registerd you for the forums too but thats not the case, oh well. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Ok, so. CAL is not CPL. They're releated, but they aren' the same. CAL is an online competitive game league. CPL is a massive LAN held down in Texas. There isn't anypoint in trying to get NS at the CPL. NS is waaaaay to small. We don't have anywhere near the numbers to get teams down there.
    However, considering how many people watch the HLTV's, if NS ever goes to CPL it'd be ideal. It's a great spectator game.

    Sorry to ruin the idea. What is actually running?

    NS is not ready for CPL play, i doubt if any NS team in the world is ready to play at CPL level, and even if there were the tournament would be so small it would be pointless.

    Natural Selection doesn't have as many players as most of those other games. TFC and DoD are our closest opponents. I'm surprised TFC made it on the list with the decay of their community and the failure of the CAL TFC unit.

    I looked up and Averaged the amount of players and servers (when applicable) for those games listed on the Vote:

    Players: 5478
    Servers: 1466

    NS stats at the same time (about 3:00 PM)

    Players: 1368
    Servers: 362

    ------

    NS just isn't quite on the caliber of most of those other entries.
