Great tournament and a well deserved prize. Glad to see we lost to the eventual victors, and even better to see them stuff Valve as well :-)

Congratulations again guys. Who'd have thought Valve suck at their own game. What are they doing all day?

Well done all :)

I think I've only personally played a game with one (possibly 2) of the Elite Four, and we won that one despite me being there, so I figured that EG team would whip the devs!

The only thing better than beating someone at their own game, is beating someone at their own game and gloating about it!

Well done lady and gents, done us proud! :)

Absolutely great job guys, you rose through the ranks of the excellent EG Tourney to earn this privilege,and you kicked them when you got the chance!

Go TACHR4EG

I enjoy playing Left 4 Dead a lot but it is really hard to find a balanced versus game.

Well dones lads, EG readers kick arse!

I had a great Death Toll last night to, the cries of "bad knows where he's going follow him" and many top scores puffed my chest so much! We couldn't finish the finale tho! :)

Seriously L4d is like crack and the MP levels are wicked, I love it! :)


EDIT - Er..well done lads and lass apparently!

@ DDevil: "Great tournament and a well deserved prize. Glad to see we lost to the eventual victors, and even better to see them stuff Valve as well :-)"

In fact we only lost to the two teams who ended up in the final. We only beat one team the whole tournament as well, but I'm still going to count it.

Well done lads and lass!

Yeah, Brainboy really ought to get a mention for actually being one of the main team members (right up until the Valve match) who won the tournament!

Valve were beating at their own game! By a team with a girl!

I do hope they hear about their loss for a long time in the office though.

A hearty thankyou goes to PiD in helping to organise both last night and the preceding tourney, great fun.

My only regret is that i have been quoted on the front-page using the phrase: 'uber tight'.

Gl3n: I think big thanks go to you, too. For organising the tournament and for being my substitute in the game!
