Looks like they got the time for Central Europe wrong. That'll be 6PM CET, not 5pm.

Good luck with the event Focalor. I hope you all have a blast.

I doubt this will get any extra traffic to the event, but at the very least, it's also a good way to spread info about this years QuakeCon 2020, QCON@home.

Due to the delightful plague of death currently being imposed upon us, large in-person social gatherings are little more than fond memories now, and QCon 2020 will be an entirely online kinda thing. So now if you're a poor schmuck who can't afford to go and you typically stay at home and stream everything about it online, you no longer have to feel excluded. because now EVERYONE will be doing it.

Good lord, I even spelled Tastyspleen wrong in the thread title.

Had about 50 people drop in altogether, some to play, some to just watch for a while.

Congrats to the winner of this years TS500, Kyper.
