We are pleased to announce to you our next tournament: Skulks with Shotguns!
We’ve chosen a format that allows players to sign up without a need to be on a pre-existing team. Teams will be established during the tournament and will be composed of 4 or 5 players depending on the number of players that register.
We will be nominating leaders for each team that will, as in gathers, pick players from the list of people who signed up and showed up.
If you‘re not aware of how Skulks with Shotguns(SwS) works already, the classic mode is Capture the Gorge. Each match will be played on the three functional maps. Each round lasts 10 minutes, but you can also win by scoring 5 points. A final round may be played with the Deathmatch mode, but only for fun!

Date: Saturday March 16th
Time: 10am PST • 1pm EST • 19 CET
Where: ensl.org on Teamspeak 3
If you want to train your skills before the tournament starts, you can join the ENSL | FR Comp #1 server, maps and mods are up and running. Due to the mod not being compatible with most of the other competitive mods, those are not installed on the server, same for NS2Plus (so deal with the skulk viewmodels).
The winners may get their name on a plaque in the Ready Room of some of the SwS maps.
Lots of thanks to Katzenfleisch for fixing the most annoying bugs and to Flaterectomy for the reward plaques! You’re awesome!

Update: Skulks with Shotguns Winners
Congratulations to Marshmellow's team: Mnow, Fr3d0x, Katzenfleisch, teal'c and Troist Moggie.
And congratulations to all players who joined and played the tournament, we hope you enjoyed it despite the issues. We will ensure everything works perfectly next time. If you have any feedback regarding the mod itself or how the tournament ran, feel free to share it.
Many thanks to Jackson for casting the tournament! If you missed it, you can watch the replay here.
Lots of thanks Flaterectomy for making the plaques! They’re now viewable in the Ready Rooms of the maps sws_gorgasm and sws_refinery. They will hopefully soon be displayed in the sws_edenfixed2 Ready Room. Flaterectomy also took the time to texture and improve the whole Gorgasm Ready Room. You can find some pictures of his amazing work here!
