So we were in a bit of a pickle today. The site is fine, nothing was lost, but there was an issue with the domain eso-community.net so if you tried to visit the site you probably ran into a blank page. Looks like the login info of the account that was used to create the site way back was somehow leaked, and apparently there are people who don't like what we're doing here and shut the site down :( But we got the account back, and we're back in business. Security will be a top priority for us going forward.

Our first round of 8 match, MusketJr vs Blackstar, went downhill a little after an exciting start where Musket won a German mirror as well as dismantling the champion's Japan with some solid French cannon play. Blackstar however was having issues with his PC, and by the looks of it his mentality as well, and decided to forfeit the rest of the match after losing game 5 and being behind 3-2. A shame, but a deserved victory for our very first semi-finalist MusketJr who played well throughout the series and is finally showing that he can perform in tournaments. There can be no doubt now that he is a contender for first place!

As mentioned in an earlier post, we have Mitoe vs Samwise12 coming up this saturday and it's gonna be good. These are 2 more players who are certainly contenders for first. Kynesie and ACERGAME09 are actually playing right now (tune in at ESOCTV!), and both looking strong in this event as well. Goongoon and Fard are also players we cannot overlook. Really, at this point, since Blackstar is out anybody can win. Many of these players are close in skill and I would not be surprised if it all came down to preparation in the end. Let's hope to see some creative play in the meantime!

And there's more good news on top of all the exciting tournament action. Looks like Microsoft has started paying attention. Moesbar has been banned, and it looks like poor bpdscolony finally met the ESO banhammer as well. Unlucky for these guys, but we can all feel a little safer against cheaters. For all of our sakes, make sure you keep reporting cheaters to BarbarossaBlade at the official AoE forums. It's not falling on deaf ears!


EDIT from H2O:

If you donated to the site from August 5th to August 10th we have your donations, but we do not have your emails. Therefore we could not see how you wanted your donations listed. Please reach out to either Mitoe and myself by personal message if you want those donations listed by name. For now they are listed under anonymous. Thank you to all those who donate! we pulled in 80 more for the winter championship in those 5 days!

[/div]https://www.youtube.com/c/EsocommunityNetVideos[size=2.5]PS. Oh, I forgot about the new site addition. So, basically now you can type an AOE3 player name in that search box in the sidebar, right on top of the Elo rating top and, heres the catch... are you ready?... are you READY?... IF

1. you hit enter, a new tab with the Elo page gets launched
2. you click on the search icon, an extra-special window pops up, loading the Elo stats directly on our site (how cool is that? :eyecrazy: ).
[/size]
awesome work. Already subscribed :bravo:

the search box does not work for me currently :( Do you have same experiences?

I just hope DE is not going to implement all of the EP changes. Right now it is a big clusterfuck.
