You decide the rules!

CPL-Europe opens up a survey to find out what rules you want them to use at their Cologne pro-gaming tournament

Recently there has been some controversy over the rules, game settings and tournament structure at pro-gaming events, and CPL-Europe has come up with an interesting solution - ask the gamers to vote on what rules they would like to see used. You can now take part in surveys to determine rules for both the Quake 3 and Counter-Strike competitions which will be held at the CPL-Europe Cologne event later this year. Choices include how the final rounds should be played out (single elimination over three maps, or double elimination on a single map), which maps should be used, how Counter-Strike matches are scored, and the proverbial much more.
