    Here is a snippet from our promotional email that describes our league:

    Description of WiredLabs, WiredGames WiredServers, and WiredLAN

    WiredLabs
    · Company founded by Gamers, for Gamers
    · Ambitious plans for several new competitive gaming leagues
    · Parent company for WiredGames, WiredServers, and WiredLAN

    WiredGames
    · League system for Counter-Strike (www.counter-strike.net), Day of Defeat (www.dayofdefeat.com), and Natural-Selection (www.natural-selection.org)
    o Innovative draft system where teams can sign free agents
    o Teams can trade players in order to build their own “franchise”
    o Two divisions: Open and Pro. Both divisions have cash prizes for the top teams.
    o “Pro” division incorporates a salary model where players are actually paid to play
    § The Pro division has a salary cap system very similar to many professional sports (NBA, MLB, NFL, etc…)
    · Several free giveaways throughout the season for the registered players
    · Easy-to-use website allows complete control over team management for the owners, as well as individual management for the players
    · Plans in progress to include more games upon the growth of WiredGames, including Battlefield 1942 (www.battlefield1942.com), Unreal Tournament 2003 (http://www.unrealtournament2003.com), Hostile Intent (http://www.planethalflife.com/hostileintent), and more

    WiredServers
    · Sells bandwidth so that teams can setup their own personal servers
    · Provides official servers for the Pro division so that all Pro matches are played on a regulated server
    · Runs several public servers for non-competitive play, where players can go and socialize outside of matches

    WiredLAN
    · Plans in progress to hold tournaments for the WiredGames teams in a LAN environment
    · Focused on providing the best, most stable LAN environment possible for competitive gaming.


    The potential in the online league sector of computer gaming is enormous, and we at WiredLabs feel that we can realize that potential. We look forward to a fruitful cooperation that will benefit everyone in a market that is growing at an exponential rate.

    Very truly yours,

    WiredLabs

    Again, my email is r.schumacher@wiredlabs.com

    Hey guys, I'm working with Ryan on this, so I wanted to add my two cents. The potential for this league is huge, and I'm not just saying this just cause I'm working on it =P We have some serious corporate backing here, and quite a solid plan that we think has the opportunity to really foster a new online community. As a mapper for the WiredGames league, your map would have hundreds of players. What we're looking for are maps that capture the spirit of NS, but also the spirit of fast based clan gameplay. If you think you have what it takes, shoot me an e-mail at C.Quinn@wiredlabs.com or to Ryan at R.Schumacher@wiredlabs.com Thanks a bunch, and I look forward to hopefully seeing some of my favorite mappers form this forum jump on board.

    I've begun making maps and I'd think that I have pretty good map designs. I just have trouble making rotating doors and eleavators (If you have any help e-mail me @ <a href='mailto:iamthekornchief@ananzi.co.za'>iamthekornchief@ananzi.co.za</a>) and I really am useless at placing textures. I'll e-mail a crappily textured map to you when I'm done with it <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Assuming I get paid salaried per map or hourly I'll look into it.

    We are looking at possibly compensating our mappers, though it wouldn't be for a little while, after the league really got rolling.
