Frag Dominant decided to host a 2v2 Quake 3 cup. Together with this cup, Frag Dominant interviewed 3 well known players – 
Brian ‘DKT‘ Flander, Chance ‘chance‘ Lacina & Shane ‘Rapha‘ Hendrixson – about the cup, Quake 3 and also the future of Quake with Quake Live.
While Quake Live is still in the beta phase, Quake.cz is organizing a Team Death Match Nationscup.
We are happy to see some Quake Live cups are finally on the way, first with the LLL duel cup and now a Team Death Match Nations cup.

The Id software crew very recently announced they will soon be sending out their largest batch of invites for the Quake Live beta yet to date. It is estimated that over 10,000 new beta invites will be sent out, allowing plenty of new people to try the experience that is Quake Live, nearly doubling their current userbase.

This test will be during prime time in Europe, at 21.00cet to be exactly. Since people in the USA will be at school or work, I guess the Europeans will have to do an extra effort to make this crash test work.
Tomorrow we enter a new year; 2009! Yet this saturday, 3 january, we will already see the first Quake Live cup of 2009, hosted by Impulse of the LowLandLions. First prize takes home a Thermaltake Power Supply Unit. There’s only 16 spots reserved, so be sure to sign up quickly!
