The Quake Live King of the Hill 1v1 tournament will take place, where you will be challenging 1v1 the current "King" to a 1v1 duel. Winner will be the king, and the final King will be the tournament winner.

For those of you who are interested in participating in this tournament, there is an additional fee along with it ($25 per person) which will be paid at the LAN. This fee is a 100% in 100% out prize-pot for the tournament, and we will be offering hardware as well as the cash prizes. Payout will be 70% to first, 20% to second, and 10% to third. *Subject To Change*

The tournament will be MR15 structured with Round Robin matches, so that you will play more than 2 matches.

The Round Robin will start Friday evening at 7pm (will be 3-4 matches), and the double elimination tournament will start Saturday.

If you cannot make it Friday, you can still play on Saturday, and will be placed in the brackets at the end of the rankings. Double Elim brackets will start at noon on Saturday. We have a very strict "no waiting for anyone" policy, so if you're late, you forfeit.

Map list is as follows- Nuke, Inferno, Dust2, Train, Contra, Season, Tuscan. No CPL maps will be used due to copyright.

We also will have the entire university's internet, to allow you to jump on IRC and scrim with your team at the LAN. The average ping to a Chicago server is 15ms. We also have this as a backup plan in case a server box may crash.

Questions? Comments? Concerns? Send me an email

There seems to be a problem registering new accounts on the forums. We are working on it.

In the mean time, email us if you have any questions.

edit: fixed.

Because of ideological and fundamental differences between the MPCon Staff and Gamer's Outreach Foundation, we have decided to go our separate ways.

GOF's Summer LAN on July 17th is not run by MPCon

MPCon will not be concentrating on fundraising or growth. We are returning to having events that are stable, consistent, easy to run, and most importantly, fun. :)

Contact us if you have any questions.

MPCon has been south-eastern Michigan's largest LAN Party for the past 10 years. Our largest event drew over 320 attendees.
